KUANG Seafood

4.4(4,199 reviews)$$$$

A well-established seafood restaurant in the Huai Khwang district, Kuang Seafood draws a consistent crowd of locals and visitors with its broad menu of Thai coastal cooking and generous portion sizes. The restaurant has also developed a following among fans of Korean actor Kim Seon-ho, whose connection to the place is genuine and widely recognised. Its position on Ratchada Road keeps it convenient for those spending an evening in the area. The menu covers classic preparations with particular strength in crab curry, stir-fried squid with salted egg, and stir-fried prawns with curry — dishes that diners frequently single out. The atmosphere is casual and lively rather than refined, with a clean dining room and additional seating upstairs. Pricing sits toward the mid-to-upper range for this style of restaurant, so larger groups ordering multiple dishes should factor that in before arriving. Good to know: the kitchen runs every day from 11:00 AM through to 1:30 AM, making it a practical option after evening entertainment nearby. Ice is charged as an extra when ordering drinks, which is worth keeping in mind. For groups visiting during busy evening hours, contacting the restaurant through its Facebook page before arriving is a sensible precaution.

Visitor Reviews

I came here purely as a happy fangirl, following in the footsteps of my beloved Kim Seon-ho 💙 — and I can honestly say it was totally worth it! Not only did I get to visit a place connected to someone I admire so much, but the food was genuinely delicious too. Every dish was full of flavour and perfect for sharing, making it a great spot for a lovely meal with family. This turned out to be a fan moment that didn’t disappoint at all — amazing seafood, warm atmosphere, and a place that made my heart (and stomach) very happy. If you’re a Seon-ho fan or just looking for great seafood, this place is a must-visit! 🥰🦞

The food here was amazing!! We had different dishes and they were all really good. I recommend the crab curry and friend rice 🌸 If you ask for ice, they charge you extra for it. They have seating upstairs and downstairs. You can sit at a normal table or they have round tables for lazy Suzy style. It can get very loud but it is family friendly.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kuang Seafood and it was an enjoyable experience. The restaurant is clean and inviting atmosphere making it a comfortable spot for a meal. The prices are reasonable, offering good value for the quality of food served. We indulged in a delightful spread that included Yam Phra Fu, fish maw, crab omelette, and stir fried watercress. Each dish was delicious, fresh ingredients and good preparation. The fish maw delicately cooked and the crab omelette rich with generous crab meat. The stir-fried watercress added crisp to our meal. Overall, Kuang Seafood impressed with its delicious offerings clean ambiance and fair pricing. A definite recommendation for seafood lovers looking for a satisfying dining experience.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food

Learn the Spice Scale

Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.

Follow the Crowds

The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.

Ice Is Safe

Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
