Visited Thanying on our last night in Thailand. We were looking for traditional Thai food and that is exactly what we found with this gem. We ordered Som Tam, Pad Thai, and the four curry sampler. All of the dishes were delicious! Prices were fair, especially for the amount of food you get with each dish (we couldn't finish any of them). Atmosphere was nice, and the staff was very attentive. We didn't make reservations but went early (7pm), but if going with a larger party I would definitely make reservations as it was crowded by the time we left. While the staff was very attentive, they were not the friendliest we had experienced in Bangkok.

Not quite sure how to describe it. Let's put it this way. The Tom yum soup seafood is by far the most different Tom yum soup I had tasted. Its so fresh I thought it was a coconut. =)

We emailed to make the reservation for dinner on a Thursday night. We're surprised to find the restaurant almost full, that really brought up our expectations! However, after sitting for a while, we begin to notice that all the tables were occupied by foreign tourists! Even at the big table hosted by a local gentleman, all his guests were foreigners. The place is dated and in dire need of a make over. We were seated by the window and the garden is not well maintained too. It is not pleasing to the eye.

The food was average and we were disappointed. Of all the dishes which we ordered, only the "4 kinds of curry" met our expectations. We have tried a number of top names of Bangkok's Thai restaurants on our previous trips, so we wanted to try the " Geniune Royal Thai Cuisine" that Thanying advertized. Sadly we are sorely disappointed.

Great food. Great ambience. And you have really not had Thai food, until you eat here. Flavor is wonderful and service is great

Exquisite taste of Royal Thai Cuisine set back in a colonial house embedded in a small beautiful garden, all within the buzz of the city center.

Fine dining with a casual approach and very professional service. Food is beyond expectations, simply delicate and refined.

My favorite restaurant in Silom area
