Kungthong Seafood Rama4

4.5(1,158 reviews)$$$$

A well-established seafood restaurant in the Khlong Tan neighbourhood, Kungthong Seafood has earned a loyal following among Bangkok locals and returning visitors alike for its consistently fresh seafood and confident Thai seasoning. The kitchen's approach centres on letting quality ingredients do the talking — bold yet balanced flavours that reviewers frequently describe as lingering pleasantly without being overpowering. Diners can expect a casual, unpretentious atmosphere with a menu built around classic Thai seafood preparations. Standout dishes highlighted by visitors include crab fried rice loaded generously with crab meat and wok hei, oyster omelette, stir-fried morning glory, and fresh shrimp and crab that carry a natural sweetness. Portions are considered honest value for the mid-range price point, with the kitchen notably not skimping on premium ingredients. Good to know: The restaurant is open daily from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM, covering both lunch and dinner. The nearest BTS station is Phrom Phong, roughly a 20–25 minute walk away, so visitors may prefer a taxi or motorbike taxi for convenience. Service can slow during busy periods, so arriving outside peak meal times — mid-afternoon or shortly after 6:00 PM — tends to make for a smoother experience. The Facebook page linked in the listing is the best place to check for any menu updates or seasonal specials before visiting.

Visitor Reviews

This is a must visit restaurant whenever we are in bangkok. Kungthong Seafood Rama 4 and sure glad it did not disappoint. We walked about 20–25 minutes from our hotel near Phrom Phong BTS, a very pleasant walk, passing a few interesting spots along the way. It was 10 January, and the weather was surprisingly good even at noon, which made the walk enjoyable. As usual, we ordered our favourite wing bean salad. Loved the ingredients and especially the freshness of the wing beans crunchy and vibrant. The mid-joint chicken wings never fail us; they’re always fresh (not frozen) and remain an all-time favourite. This time, we also tried the oyster omelette. It’s not usually our go-to dish, but it was superbly fresh, light, and not oily at all. We also had the glass noodle claypot with prawns, very tasty, and the prawns were fresh and well-cooked. There were just two of us, so we couldn’t order more, but the total bill came to about 1,000 baht, which we find very reasonable for the quality. Good food, fresh ingredients, fair pricing, don’t miss this place. We’ll definitely be back again.

If I ever have the chance to visit Bangkok, I make sure to come to this restaurant every time. It’s truly that good — absolutely worth it. Honestly, the food here is delicious in every dish. This is a place I would truly recommend to anyone visiting Bangkok — it’s a must-try. The highlight is definitely the deep-fried golden prawns with salt, a signature recipe of the restaurant, and the three-flavor sea bass, which was absolutely amazing. I recommend making a reservation, as the place can get quite busy.

We had a blast at this restaurant. The seafood was incredibly fresh, and the seasoning was bold yet never overpowering—its flavor lingers beautifully on your palate. Several dishes are absolute must-tries and create lasting memories that will keep calling you back for a second visit. Highly recommended.

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.
