The 10 Best Restaurants in Ayutthaya, Ranked
River prawns run this list, with half the entries sitting on the water and grilling something large and orange. Grand Chaopraya takes the top spot on sheer weight of happy diners, though The Artisans edges it on rating alone if plating matters more to you than charcoal. Most of these are mid-priced, with Sukunya Somtum the cheap Isaan outlier. Ranked by Google rating, review volume breaking ties.
