Riverside Classic Thai Dining

Really liked the vibe here—classic Thai meets a bit of vintage charm, right by the river. The view across to Terminal 21 is a nice bonus while you wait for your food. Speaking of which, the dishes I tried were tasty and felt authentic, though I did notice it took longer than expected to get served on a busy night. Staff were super friendly and accommodating, especially with my mum who needed a bit of extra care. Prices were fair too. If you can swing a weekday visit, it’s probably more chill and quicker. Overall a solid spot if you’re after genuine Thai flavors without breaking the bank.

Riverside Thai with Scenic Views

I ended up trying the sour soup with crispy mangosteen here and honestly it was full of flavor without being too spicy, which I appreciated. The green squash in it wasn’t really my thing though. Also had the grilled sun-dried squid — nicely presented and the seafood sauce felt authentically Thai, none of that blended green stuff some places do. The highlight for me was definitely sitting inside with those high ceilings, gazing out at Wat Arun lit up across the river as boats drifted by. Pretty relaxing spot if you want good food and a chill view, though I’m not sure I’d call it worth a splurge on price alone. Still, a nice place to unwind for an evening.

Riverside Gem with Delicious Thai Food

I recently dined at DooNam 1608 and it was truly a hidden gem by the river. The food was delicious and the service was top-notch. The view of the river was absolutely beautiful and made the dining experience even more special. I highly recommend stopping by this place when in Bangkok.
