“ Quite full during dinner hour. Real plants as decorations inside the shop so do expect mosquitoes at your seat (we were given an electric mosquito swatter to kill the mosquitoes ...) . Long wait for the food too, but at least the taste is good so it made up for the long wait. The portion is not so big neither. ”
“ Convenient location for guests staying at Jazzotel. The restaurant space is cozy, with lots of trees and friendly staff. The food menu has English and pictures so it's easy to order. The food is delicious and the price is cheaper than other places. ”
“ Probably the spiciest food I had since arriving back in Thailand Bangkok. The menu offers a huge variety of high quality Thai food. I myself went for the yellow curry with salmon & coconut combined with mixed fried rice with some seafood added. Fresh orange juice and some water to complete the meal. Parking is limited, price above average but worth it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ PS; there's a smoking and non-smoking section. Be sure to get seated right ”
“ The place is quite comfortable for sitting and dining. The menu offers a variety of delicious dishes. The pomelo salad is refreshing and has the perfect balance of flavors. The crab with chili is delicious, although it’s probably the most subtle dish among the ones ordered today. The shrimp paste long bean is cooked nicely and very flavorful. The fish curry has the right balance of flavors, but it could have been cooked a bit spicier. Overall, this is a great place for lunch or dinner. ”
“ The shop is decorated very chic. I really like the arrangement of plants and flowers in the shop. Beautiful, shady in style . Great delicious food with a wide variety of menus. Good drinks . There is a parking lot , but if you come in peak hours, you have to spend more time to fine parking space. ”
