    There are things that I wish I had known before coming here. Maybe my info below will be helpful to others. This restaurant consists of 3 floors. Reservations can be made for the first and second floors. To get a good table closest to the river, you have to make a reservation two weeks in advance. The view of the river is obstructed on these floors by a staircase and columns. A full food menu is available on these floors. The third floor is on the rooftop. It has the best view by far, but you can’t make reservations so you should come early or wait for a good table to open up. Only drinks and snacks can be ordered on this floor. Note that drink prices are higher on this floor. For example, a bottle of Asahi was 170 baht on the first floor but 240 baht on the third floor. I ordered a Long Island Iced Tea but didn’t taste any alcohol. Also, the picture of this drink in the menu made it look like a small pitcher, and it was 290 baht. However, when the drink arrived it was just in a regular glass. Still 290 baht on the bill.

    The location is really great, and roof really cosy. The staff were really helpful and attentive. Food was good. Special mention for the satay chicken, the peanut sauce was from other world. Papaya salad was great and the Chinese jujube sticky desert is one of the best one at the moment in our trip in Thailand!! Total price a bit expensive but the views and food deserve it. Highly recommend!!

    We had lunch here in between temple tours. Cool setting on the 3rd floor with half air conditioned and the other half open air. Right across the river from the Temple of Dawn which makes for great pictures. They have an extensive menu of Thai and Western foods including pizza which the kids had. The Thai food was good. The kids are the pizza but it didn’t have a whole lot of flavor. They have an extensive cocktail list as well. Cool spot.

    Amazing view of Wat Arun. Great Thai food with a bit of Western fusion influence. The restaurant on the 3rd floor is very comfortable, super well decorated. Service is fair, prices as well. Great venue to impress visitors.

    It’s a good place to see the Arun. You can enjoy the view from evening to night. I strongly recommend to make a reservation earlier to take a good position to see the view of Arun. However, best not to get overly hopeful to the food here. The price is a little high, and the food is average. I think the price here includes the view.

    Came here specially for the sunset. Its beautiful, Service is good, best to be here as early as 5pm to get a good seat. Level 4 and rooftop has the best seats and views. It's gorgeous filming the Chao Phraya River whilst enjoying the sunset! 🌇 Food pricing is overpriced, but I would come here for photo taking.

    The restaurant is located opposite Wat Arun. The prices are quite high compared to the amount of food and quality, but the view is beautiful and the atmosphere is good. Most of the customers are foreigners, but there are also some locals. There is no parking.

    It could be the beautiful view, but you need to spend there min 1500 batt for two person. So, we took our Drinks at the Zunely’s House - Café Next to this restaurant with cheap proces and beautiful cat :)

    Nice ambiance with local deco. Fusion food of western and Thai style dishes. But we felt hot as our table was next to glass window with direct heat from afternoon sun. However, panaromic view of river and temple was good.

    We stopped for drinks after visiting nearby Wat Pho (reclining Budda). They were overpriced for Bangkok but you were paying for the view of Wat Arun across the river.

    This restaurant is tuck in the end of alley where is opposite to Wat Arun, Morning dawn temple. There are five floors, the 2-4 floors is for the restaurant and 2 rooms for accommodation. The location is the best for viewing the temple in the day and night time. The food tastes are not seem to be an authentic Thai cuisine. Price is quite high.

    Good food that successfully combines foreign and Thai culinary culture. The service was quite quick as well. Nothing can top the scenery and the general atmosphere, especially at sunset. The view of Wat Arun couldn't be better.

    Better not to drive here except that you have a driver. No parking lot and it is in a small narrow lane. The restaurant is by Chao praya river. We walkes up to the fifth floor. The stairs are narrow. Be careful each step. No air-conditioning on this floor. The view by the river is amazing. Temple of dawn ( Wat Arun ) with a background of sunset is beautiful. We arrived early around 5pm. So we saw a change of sky colors when the time went by. We booked here more than a month ago. At that time we talked on the phone with one staff and we had to change the date until we could get a table by the river. But when we arrived, we did not get a table we booked. That was not nice to change our booking. But none of the staff helped. We had to sit at the table they gave us. Very disappointing. We ordered some drinks. There were ok. Mine was just too sweet. Food selections are not many. There are both Thai and Western food. We tried quite a few dishes. There were ok, not great. The taste was more for foreigners. Chicken satay was too dry. Actually, having dinner here is more for the magnificent view and welcoming guests.

    This place, I come a few time before COVID and enjoyed a sun set with beer. Today I come here for lunch after visit temples. Those meals are good. I think it is good for foreigner the most and also taste is good for Thai too. Of course it is not spicy Thai food then you can mot expect a hot meal. Restaurant is clean and nice decoration.

    + Beautiful view. + Food is delicious. + Nice decoration. + Staff service is really quick. - Each table is a bit too close. Not quite good for privacy. - Too few restroom. - No dedicated Parking lot. You have to look at the close by area.

    Built near a riverside, this place is a must visit in bangkok to enjoy an amazing view of sunset while enjoying food and drinks.

  • 5/5 Gazda 10 months ago on Google
    2nd time here... And they're a lot better. Personality, I kind of bias about touristy place with Thai test (for food) they never reach the word "authentic" Surprisingly, this place reach this word. Thai food have real Thai test, fusion food also strong flavors, Italian pizza was real cheese and meat, dessert so rich with nice aroma, and drink, they can made me keep drinking 😋 VIEW wohhhhhh Best​ sunset along Chao pra ya river, the sun and stupa melted me. 🌅

    Nice view of the Wat Arun temple. Decent food but the sun and temperature can kill you in the terrace, be careful... They have A/C option.

    I had the Green Curry with River Prawns - the prawns were huge and tasty but the curry itself was a little bland and not spicy enough for my liking. The staff were fine and the view over to Wat Arun was great. You will need to walk through the hotel to reach the floors with the bar and restaurant.

  • 4/5 Ra B. 1 year ago on Google
    Getting to the 3rd floor and then the roof top terrace is a bit of a challenge - but it pays off. Breathtaking view onto the river and templates, good quality food and drinks - and friendly service. Thank you!

    I really liked the atmosphere here and the service staff were good, but the food was not to my liking. I felt that the beef was too hard and the fried rice was rather bland

  • 5/5 Caius B. 1 year ago on Google
    I think one of the best restaurants I've ever been in Bangkok. Traditional but with some appreciated western influences. It would be deserve a visit just for the amazing view on the Wat Arun. Food is simply genuine and delicious, I really appreciated the soft shell crab and I belive I had the best spring rolls of my life, never had such a fragrant dough. Delicious crepes suzzette and very interesting selection of cocktails and mocktails. Very friendly, prompt and professional staff. Absolutely recommended

    We came here because the view of Arun Temple and the river. The deck is a great spot for us to enjoy our time together and the view. The rooftop bar provides a really great view, or alternatively outdoor for Amorasa on 4th floor. Second floor option at the Deck was also good, especially the view after sunset as we cannot see obstruction from nearby construction. Our waiter and waitress were attentive to accommodate our request. We enjoyed the food. RSVP is allowed a month in advance, make sure you plan well, and you can enjoy everything with a great view!!!

    4th floor for restaurant and 5th floor is the bar which serves alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages.. the view was right in front of the majestic Wat Arun, price for drinks were still reasonable and service was superb n polite Mind you that there’s no elevator, only stairs

  • 5/5 Wawa M. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredible vistas, great food with good portion sizes, and excellent service. Has several floor levels of seating space each with exquisite views on the canal, especially during sunset. Dusk also brings out the splendid city lights, along with views of cruises on the canal. Highly recommend this place for an early dinner.

  • 4/5 Saurabh S. 10 months ago on Google
    Great view. We had drinks. The sunset time is the best time to be here. Try and get early to catch a table right next to the river

    Got a table on the second floor of The deck for dinner. View was ok of the view of Wat Arun. Third floor offers the best view in the restaurant - Reservation a must which can take month to secure a table on the third. Food wasn’t fantastic. Service was acceptable. You do have to settled your bills before moving to the rooftop for a drink although they are of the same company. Advice to drop by after 2000 as the crowd thins off. Attached pic of the view of Wat Arun on the rooftop bar.

    Cool drinks. Nice satay. Beautiful view. Nice plants. Pitcher of beer very cold. Try the spring rolls. Coffee took some time, but fancy mug.
