Food was okay overall and came out pretty quickly. The staff were also nice and service was fine. Prices are definitely not on the cheap side, though. The Lod Chong (Wat Chaed) dessert was unfortunately quite bland and lacked flavor. Overall, an okay experience — decent food and quick service, but the price feels a little high for what you get. Note: 1 Car parking slot available right in front of the restaurant. Or you have to park along the road side, or at พรรคประชาธิปัตย์ office which is 100m away.

🇹🇭✨ I had the pleasure of visiting Penlaos Rama 6, an authentic Isan (Northeastern Thai) restaurant recommended by local friends. As a Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant, every dish exceeded my expectations! 😋 Everything they ordered for us was outstanding: 🍗 Juicy and perfectly grilled chicken 🥗 Refreshing mangosteen salad with a wonderful balance of sweet, sour, and spicy flavors 🍲 Rich and flavorful Isan-style soup 🍚 Delicious fried rice packed with authentic Thai flavors Enjoying these amazing dishes with a bottle of Beerlao made the experience even better. 🍺 This felt like a restaurant truly loved by locals rather than just a tourist destination, making it one of the highlights of my Bangkok trip. Highly recommended if you’re looking for authentic Isan cuisine! 🇹🇭✨

Originally from Khao Yai, Nakhon Ratchasima, PenLaos built its reputation well enough to earn a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2023 and 2024, and the Rama 6 branch proudly carries that legacy forward. The food here is genuinely delicious, made with fresh ingredients and cooked with confidence. Service is very good—attentive and friendly—while the atmosphere is clean, tidy, and comfortable for a relaxed meal. Prices are reasonable, and wine lovers will appreciate the corkage fee of just 200 THB. Parking is available roadside. A must-order is the Spicy Minced Catfish Salad, packed with bold Lao-style flavors and absolutely perfect when paired with hot sticky rice. Simple, authentic, and very satisfying.
