Baan Somtum Sathorn
Baan Somtum is one of those places we keep going back to whenever we’re in Bangkok. It’s casual, affordable, and genuinely good — especially if you love Isan food or just want to explore beyond the usual green curry and pad Thai.
Michelin Bangkok
100 Mahaseth
100 Mahaseth has become one of my go-to restaurants in Bangkok, especially when I’m wandering around the Charoen Krung area. We’ve been several times, and the food has always been great.
Michelin Restaurants in Bangkok
Bangkok is home to an impressive number of Michelin-rated restaurants, and over the years, we’ve had the chance to try quite a few. On this page, we share the places we personally visited and reviewed
Elements Restaurant
Elements Restaurant is on the 25th floor of The Okura Prestige Bangkok. We went for dinner on a quiet weekday evening, curious to see how this Michelin-starred restaurant balances French and Japanese influences.
Saneh Jaan
Saneh Jaan is an award-winning Thai restaurant located in Sindhorn Tower on Wireless Road in Ploenchit, Bangkok. Known for serving authentic and traditional Thai cuisine, the restaurant is especially famous for its seasonal Khao Chae, a refreshing summer dish.
Baannok Bangkok
Baannok Bangkok on Langsuan Road is one of those places we keep going back to. It’s tucked away on the second floor of Vivre Langsuan, right across from Portico, but it feels more like someone’s living room than a city restaurant.
Nusara Restaurant
Nusara is one of the best dinners we’ve had in Bangkok for a long time. Chef Ton, a long-time friend, created this restaurant as a tribute to his grandmother, who inspired his love for Thai cooking.
Arunwan Restaurant
Arunwan Restaurant in Ekkamai, Bangkok, has been serving outstanding noodle soup since 1963. Despite relocating four times within the same area, loyal customers continue to follow them for their consistently delicious dishes.
Restaurant Potong
Located in the heart of Yaowarat in Bangkok Chinatown, Restaurant Potong is a fine dining establishment that has transformed an old Thai-Chinese house into a modern and stylish space.
Sühring Bangkok
Sühring is a superb restaurant serving modern German cuisine and probably one of Bangkok’s most talked about places. The restaurant hides in a tiny street off Sathorn road and seems to be cocooned in an overgrown green garden.
Sushi Masato Bangkok
Sushi Masato is Bangkok’s most exclusive address, even more since the restaurant received a prestigious Michelin Star. This Japanese restaurant can only accommodate ten guests and is booked more than three months in advance.
Royal Osha Restaurant
Royal Oshak is one of the fanciest and most upmarket Thai restaurants in Bangkok. Originally from San Francisco, where they run five restaurants, Royal Osha serves Thai food with a slight twist, created by talented Thai chefs.
Methavalai Sorndaeng Restaurant
Methavalai Sorndaeng is an old-fashioned Thai restaurant frozen in time, just next to the Democracy Monument, not far from Khao San. There are so many Thai restaurants in Bangkok finding something original for a special occasion will be difficult.
80/20 Eighty Twenty Restaurant Bangkok
80/20 Eighty Twenty is a superb restaurant in the north of Silom that serves great cuisine in an area of Bangkok where not many modern restaurants have opened yet.
Le Du Restaurant Bangkok
Le Du restaurant on Silom is one of our favourite restaurants in Bangkok, if not our favourite. We were lucky to discover it from the very early days and enjoyed the evolution from a young and shy hidden restaurant to a world-class, Michelin-starred venue.
Paste Restaurant Bangkok
Paste Restaurant in the Gaysorn Village shopping centre is another proof that the Bangkok dining scene never ceases to evolve and improve. Paste Restaurant started in Sukhumvit and has already made a name for itself there.
