Sra Bua by Kiin Kiin

4.7(1,112 reviews)$$$$

Tucked inside the Siam Kempinski Hotel on Rama I Road, this fine dining restaurant approaches traditional Thai cuisine through a contemporary lens, pairing classic flavour profiles with inventive preparation methods and refined presentation. The kitchen draws on deep Thai culinary heritage while introducing east-meets-west sensibilities that have built a loyal following among Bangkok regulars and international visitors alike.

The dining experience is polished and considered from start to finish. A standout feature noted by repeat visitors is the kitchen tour offered by staff, giving diners a chance to meet the chef and observe meal preparation before sitting down — an unusual touch that sets the tone for the evening. The menu showcases dishes such as beef with house-made curry sauce and fragrant baked jasmine rice, and the atmosphere strikes a balance between formal and welcoming, supported by the hotel's consistently attentive service.

One of the most memorable meals of our life. A big thank you to the Sra Bua team, the service team and everyone behind the team that contributed to such a wonderful, thoughtful lunch. A big thank you to khun Bas for his care and detailed explanations of each item in English and Thai. Between the tour of the kitchen, and of many of the locally sourced ingredients, we not only loved our food, but were able to appreciate the work and craft of each ingredient and where it came from in Thailand. Being here for almost 20 years, it is rare to be this pleasantly surprised by a meal and one of the rare times I can say, it was more than worth it. We will definitely go back again and it was so nice to see pride and care in each dish as well as appreciation for the talent of the Thai farmers and producers here. Lastly... thai wasabi is a must try.

Absolute favorite in Bangkok which has so much amazing food to offer. The service was prompt, cordial and fun. The flavors came together spectacularly - amazing integration of east meets west and every dish hit the mark. They were able to accommodate vegetarians at our table who loved every dish too. Oh and enjoy the fun game picking out the food from the object at the end. An experience not to be missed.

My must-go restaurant every time I am in Bangkok, for excellent food and impeccable service! Particularly enjoyed the beef with house-made curry sauce and fragrant baked jasmine rice. Highly recommend this restaurant to all. Thank you Jimmy for taking such wonderful care of us - your warmth and sincerity make our dining experience a 5* one :)

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.
