Blanc Chiang Mai

4.8(684 reviews)

Tucked away in the quieter Suthep neighbourhood of Chiang Mai, this contemporary restaurant draws a loyal following with its European-influenced menu and warm, relaxed atmosphere. The kitchen leans toward Italian and Western cooking, with dishes such as risotto, seared seabass, croquettes, and steaks featuring prominently on the menu. The sirloin in particular has drawn consistent praise from diners, who note the quality feels well-matched to the price and portions are generous.

Inside, the space strikes a balance between cosy and stylish, making it a comfortable choice for a leisurely lunch or a relaxed evening meal. Service is frequently highlighted in visitor feedback as friendly and welcoming, contributing to the overall appeal. The setting works equally well for a casual solo meal or a longer, more social dining occasion with wine and shared plates.

- The place has such a nice, cozy vibe — really warm and relaxing. - Loved the appetizer! The flavors were well-balanced and it went so well with a glass of wine. - The food was amazing, especially the meat dishes. A total must-try! The outside was grilled nice and crispy while the inside stayed juicy and tender. - Dessert was the highlight for me. Everything we ordered was so good. The toast was soft, fragrant, and just the right sweetness — literally melted in my mouth. The lemon meringue was super refreshing with great textures, and pairing it with vanilla ice cream was spot on. - Service was excellent too. The staff were super polite and friendly. No service charge here, but it’s a good idea to bring some cash for tips.

Amazing food, great atmosphere, and excellent service. Everything tasted so good and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. Highly recommended if you’re in Chiang Mai, it’s truly worth a visit 👍🏻

Loved the vibe of the restaurant, however the food didn’t quite hit the mark and felt a little lacking in flavour. We tried the croquette, cheese platter, seared seabass, pork ribs risotto, and desserts. The mains were served while we were still midway through our appetisers, which felt a bit rushed—especially considering it was only 8pm. It might have helped if the staff checked whether we were ready for the mains, as the diners next to us experienced the same. That said, the food prices were quite reasonable and overall we still enjoyed our time there.

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.
