We had a great meal here and the dish of our trip to Thailand! The setting is spectacular and the staff were attentive.

The mince/larb entree was absolutely amazing as was the macadamia pie for dessert.

Highly recommended!

We were only going to look around, as we thought it would be too expensive. Grounds are lovely, the ambiance pleasant and the food very good--and not unreasonably expensive after all.

We visit Chiang Mai often and have eaten at the River Market for three years. Initially our experiences were mixed and often unimpressed. During the last four months we have dined at the River Market three times, more than often introducing friends to the restaurant because of the open, expansive dining area which is exposed to a wonderful view of the Ping River. I have seen a positive change in the food which begins with a more exciting menu that carries through to excellent execution by the kitchen. Now the River Market is a destination for fine food. A few of my recently acquired favorite dishes are the Grilled Beef Salad, Massaman Lamb curry (oh boy!) and the Tamarind Glazed Ribs. The restaurant is a 5-6 minute walk from the Night Bazar, right next to the Old Iron Bridge.

With so many choices it was nice to have friends who live here suggest a place close by to enjoy some authentic Thai food. We had them order for us so we could just enjoy the view along the river and sip on some cold water. The waiters keep the water flowing which was very nice since the hot weather appears here to stay.
Each of the dishes for quickly prepared and arrived at our table in unison. Nothing like some fresh Thai soup and seafood dishes to finish off the day. Yummmm.
Perhaps not the cheapest Thai food, but certainly very tasty and well worth the price.
Enjoy the taste of SE Asia.

During our 10 day stay in Chiang Mai, we have spend 4 evenings here. Although we were visiting Chiang Mai for the fifth time now, we had never spend an evening here. The ambiance is perfect and service is quick. We were suprised by the original, kind of fusion menu. Food comes all at the same time and the Appletini Sour is lovely. Perfect place to dine with kids because of the garden below. We were pleasantly surprised, please find out for yourself!
