We went for the set menu and dance show. The food was good, particularly the beef and the tom kha gai. The boat ride to and from is a nifty bonus. But we really went for the dance and music performance--that is the best part of this experience and what you are paying the high prices for. The dancing was great, but marred a bit by the tacky and overwrought lighting. (Please Sala, just turn off the light show and let the dancers shine on their own. The constant multicolored light swirl really gets in the way of the beauty of their performance.)

An absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was exceptional—beautifully presented, perfectly balanced, and full of authentic flavors. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared. The service was truly amazing: warm, attentive, and professional without ever feeling intrusive. You immediately feel welcomed and taken care of. The dancers were elegant and mesmerizing, adding a magical cultural touch to the evening. Their performance elevated the entire dining experience and made the night unforgettable. This was one of those rare dinners where everything comes together perfectly. I will definitely be coming back.

We were truly looking forward to this dining experience, especially given the restaurant’s prestigious reputation and the elegant dress code mentioned on the website. We carefully chose our outfits and made the effort to respect these expectations, only to find, once there, that several guests were wearing flip-flops, baseball caps, t-shirts, and shorts. As guests who had traveled far and prepared properly, we felt disrespected. Weeks before the reservation date, I received an email informing us of the menu. With it came a reminder about the elegant dress code in question. I was therefore expecting a refined and elegant atmosphere, but it ended up feeling like we were dining in any other restaurant down the street. If the restaurant intends to accept guests in all types of attire, that’s perfectly fine! But in that case, the dress code should be removed from the website, as it creates misleading expectations and an unbalanced experience between guests. Regarding the food: while the dishes were well-prepared and tasty, they didn’t quite live up to the restaurant’s prestigious name. For instance, having just one scallop in a dish advertised as a “scallop soup” felt quite a bit insulting. On a more positive note, the traditional Thai dance and Khon performances were truly delightful. A special thank you to the whole team for their spectacular service. We greatly appreciated their warmth, professionalism, and attentiveness throughout the evening.
