Taco Bell, the six-decade-old Tex-Mex fast-food chain from the U.S., opened to lengthy queues at Chid Lom’s MercuryVille mall in January 2019.
With a ground-floor location that spills out onto Phloen Chit Road, the debut Bangkok branch boasts a bright open kitchen, bench seating and a colorful...
Nana nightclubbers have a new place for a late-night feed. Parked in front of the Ambassador Hotel, the Taco Taxi food truck is not at all hard to spot, with its bright yellow paint job and matching table sets.
Operated by the same people behind the soi's Tex-Mex establishment Charley Brown's...
One of our favorite home-cooked Mexican restaurants has been given an update. Not far from the original location, Tacos & Salsa has moved to a bigger, bolder and more visible spot on the same soi, decorated with hand-painted works by one of the owners.

This yellow kiosk is run by two kids from Thammasat’s liberal arts faculty whose mantra is “We cook for our friends.” Fittingly, the place has a quiet, friendly vibe, while some dishes add slightly tacky touches supposedly for local tastes, as in the Pizza Tacos (B139). More classic offerings...

Taking over the ground floor of a condominium in Thonglor Soi 20, the lobby-like dining room lacks...
Blessed with a large Japanese community, Bangkok has no shortage of restaurants that bear an almost perfect resemblance to what you’d find in Japan. Taishusakaba Torayoshi is such a place: a barebones tavern (izakaya) where drinking and eating are equally important—and décor really isn’t. It’s as...
The name raises hopes of stunning views over the Chao Phraya, but while you can actually spot the Rama 8 Bridge from their second floor terrace, there’s no water to be seen. Still, the tropical theme, inviting garden and feature wall with its own cascading water do offer a pleasant atmosphere. Too...
This roadside restaurant serves up some great gaeng luang with plaa krabok (B160-180 depending on the fish) that’s spicy to the core. The fish is very fresh, too. Also recommended is their three-flavored pad sataw with shrimps (B180), in which the pungent taste of the bean definitely comes through...
