"If you prioritize one super fancy dinner in Bangkok, make it Samrub Samrub. It’s a tasting menu spot in Silom that focuses on hyper-regional Thai cooking—for example, recipes adapted from small fishing villages—with menus that change every month. It’s an educational experience, too, and by the time you’ll leave, you’ll know what foraged coriander root smells like (oregano) and how it gives the beef cheek soup with fermented chilies extra richness. The dining room is pretty small and taken up by one long bar, but there are still a couple of tables that make this place good for a group. The price tag is high relative to how well you can eat in Thailand for cheap—it’s around $150 per person—but it’s worth it for the amount of food you get. video credit: Carlo Mantuano photo credit: Mackenzie Jones photo credit: Mackenzie Jones photo credit: Mackenzie Jones photo credit: Mackenzie Jones" - Carlo Mantuano

"Chef Prin Polsuk, formerly of Michelin-starred Nahm, has brought his encyclopedic knowledge of Thai food to this intimate chef’s table tucked away in a quiet neighborhood off of one of the city’s busiest streets. Styled after a Japanese kappo, Samrub Samrub features Polsuk doling out creations inspired by the cuisine of Thailand’s micro-communities, while his wife, Thanyaporn “Mint” Jarukittikun, handles front-of-house duties and helps with menus. There are a few tables, but the best seats are obviously at the counter, where all the action is." - Chawadee Nualkhair, Austin Bush, Sirin Wongpanit

"This white, 4-storey renovated house in Si Lom hosts an intimate dining experience. The menu changes bi-monthly as chef Prin Polsuk, well-known on the scene for his work at Nahm and Sala Rim Naam, is inspired by new discoveries and seasonal changes. Delving into rare cookbooks, he reproduces ancient Thai recipes that trace the ages, and crafts a complex amalgamation of aromas to serve a truly original tasting menu. Bookings are only through social media." - Michelin Inspector

Lively atmosphere where you don’t need to feel like you’ve got to whisper in the restaurant. I enjoyed watching the chefs at work. Love the modern take on Thai food while still keeping its essence! Feature of local wines was great although it did take some getting used to some of the tastes, but isn’t that what exploring is all about? Overall we enjoyed our meal and experience here. We had 2 groups celebrating birthdays here and the vibe was lively and great! But if you like to dine in a quiet place, maybe don’t come here.

For authentic chef-driven Thai in Bangkok it doesn’t get any better than this. Samrub Samrub strikes the perfect balance of creative and traditional to serve up a delicious Thai meal in a friendly communal setting. Dinner is served at the same time to all diners so it’s essential to be on time both to enjoy the experience and out of respect for the team. After a few quick starters the main courses are served in a sequence around a bowl of rice, Samrub-style in Thai. Standouts on this menu were the amazing and deeply flavorful beef curry and the refreshing chicken salad. The shrimp paste was fascinating with a different depth of flavor in every bite. All dishes were flawless and showed an exceptional use of top ingredients and perfect balance of flavor and spice. Limit drink pairing options are available but plenty of good choices to match the food. Service is professional and friendly with a full knowledge of all the dishes served. Since most seating is at a communal counter, best for groups of 3 or fewer. Book well in advance as it’s extraordinarily popular. Worth the effort in every way!!

We had an incredible dinner here last night for my birthday - every dish was just insane and we personally loved the relaxed approach to service and the staff were great! We ate at another Michelin ⭐️ in Bangkok the night before which was more fine dining and this is not this so if you are looking for that style of dining this place maybe isn’t for you. Really loved the rice wine and the complimentary digestif and I know a tiny touch but the water (still or sparkling) is also complimentary. Menu highlights were the beef cheek in broth and the chicken skewer with the coconut dipping sauce. Plus the lobster ! To be honest I loved every course and the description of the inspiration behind it. Also loved the fact that we left not feeling like we needed a gastric band, there is an art in not making the guests too full, perfect amount of food and everything was just so banging. Loved the chilled vibe and the food really speaks for itself self. Also didn’t mind at all that the food comes out quickly, there is a lot to get through ! Highly recommend

The food is creative with natural ingredients. Love the concept of representing Thai ingredients which showcase our authenticity and culture. To me, the tastes are ok, seems varied through seasons as my friends who went there often felt that the other time menu were better. (Went during November. With several dishes served and free rice serving, so you can get very full from the course menu. The atmosphere is a bit too basic for the interior.

Underwhelming experience a restaurant for this price. Taste is tailored for westerners and too much fried dishes that were too oily for my liking and had no flavor. Many small hidden chilies in almost every dish that took away from the taste. The only dish that we liked was the first crab appetizer. For reference, this was the revisit, rethink, recreate seasonal menu. Service did not feel the most welcoming and was not helpful with the parking situation while there busy chatting together instead of being attentive to the customer. Atmosphere is stale.

I can’t see a good combination of flavors. It is like A is A, B is B. Although local spices were used, they did not blend well with dishes. Also, it is getting boring throughout the course with similar seasonings. Overall, the experience was very bland and there is lack of service either.

Innovative Thai restaurant, have some interesting local / homemade beverages, enjoyed the vibes of open kitchen and interaction. They have a great team and we’re looking forward for their further completion on their main dishes. 3.9

The starters and desserts were both unique and delicious. The main courses were generously portioned, so come hungry! The unexpected highlight of the evening was the off-menu Pad Kra Pao. The beef was expertly seasoned and cooked, with a generous amount of garlic. The perfectly fried sunny-side-up egg was the perfect finishing touch.
