Excellent high end Thai food. Beautiful setting and wonderful service. Expensive but as expected and compared to other hotels in this category in Bangkok very reasonable. All the food we had was incredible. Stars at the hotel for a week and ate here twice.
Dear Sightsee17973430278, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the high-end Thai cuisine and the beautiful setting of Salathip. It is a great compliment to know that you chose to dine with us twice during your week-long stay at the hotel. We are also pleased that you found the experience to be a good value compared to other properties in the same category; we truly strive to balance an incredible culinary experience with a setting that feels special. We look forward to welcoming you back for more incredible Thai food on your next visit to Bangkok! Best regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
On the whole it was a lovely experience. There was initially some confusion about the booking and we were moved when they realised we had previously reserved the dinner and show. The food was amazing really lovely set menu and lots of food for 2 persons and the service was excellent . The atmosphere was lovely sitting by the river watching the cruise boats going along and partying. There was only 2 dance routines intermittently between courses which wasn’t for very long so if you wanted more traditional culture this would not have been enough.
Dear Isobel, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re delighted to hear that, overall, you had a lovely evening at Salathip and enjoyed the delicious Thai set menu, attentive service, and the beautiful riverside ambiance — it’s always special watching the boats pass by under the stars. We appreciate your comments regarding the initial booking confusion, and we’re glad it was quickly resolved. Your note about the cultural performances is also helpful; while we aim to offer a taste of Thai tradition alongside dinner, we understand that some guests may be looking for a more extended show experience. We’ll certainly take this into consideration. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable evening by the Chao Phraya River. Warm regards, Nick
I was conned into believing a reasonably long cultural dance show. We managed to see two stints lasting approx 1 to 2 minutes. Verydisappointed
Dear Vinod, I am sorry how were you conned? Its a show after dinner which is clear on the website and is longer than 1 minute as you suggest. If this was the case why not say anything to the team as after checking you did not mention anything to any of the staff. We welcome reviews but please be truthful as CCTV is readily available Thanks Paul

Dear Saril, We’re so happy to hear you had a great experience at the Shangri-La Salathip Restaurant. Your review made our day! Thanks again, and we hope to serve you again soon. Nick
Having lived and worked in Thailand for more than 50 years, taking foreign visitors to the Salathip is one way of impressing them with the beauty, culture, and savory food of Thailand. The restaurant is on the Chao Phraya River, with lots of windows to see the river throughout the meal. My most recent visit was on 21 September 2022 with a guest from my alma mater, Syracuse University. She had never been to Thailand before. We sat indoors (it's the wet season and rains often) but had a perfect view of the Chao Phraya River, the dinner cruising river boats, the rice barges, and other river activities. The traditional Thai dancing provided by university students is always a nice touch. Not too much and not too little. The food was very Thai and perfect. The service provided by Bunny and her team, Jom, Pooky, Pree, and Imm was excellent. The restaurant was nearly full, but the team did an outstanding job in ensuring that my guest and I were well taken care of. Thank you Salathip for another rewarding night and an impressive presentation of Thailand.
Dear Guest, We are incredibly grateful that you took the time out to leave us a 5-Star review! We take pride in knowing our customers are happy with their experience in spite of the situation. Thanks for your support, we really appreciate it! Looking forward to seeing you again soon, Nick
I was two years ago in April 2019 for dinner and then lunch in this wonderful restaurant, during my stay at Shangri-La. The courtesy of MJ, Joe and Jeab stood out among all: it is also thanks to them that I keep a beautiful memory of this place and its dishes, expertly recommended.
Ciao Stefania, Even though you visited this restaurant in April 2019 we are thrilled you still remember the great experience you had at the restaurant. I am sure you will be visiting us again soon! Regards, Nick

Hi Serena, We are incredibly grateful that you took the time out to leave us this note. Our company values put customer satisfaction as top priority and we are committed to our customers. Great to read you had a great time at the Shangri-La, Regards, Nick
We were there for dinner at the end of February. As die-hard fans of Shangri La Hotels, we were totally disappointed: the food was still ok, but the Service was underground: unmotivated, inattentive and unprofessional! The waiters didn't get along on their own and always had to be called when you needed something - the restaurant wasn't full! Only the Salathip's location is incomparable - but does not outweigh the poor Service and average food! Very disappointing!
Dear Guest, We are devastated to hear you had such a bad experience at the Shangri-La Hotel. They are usually known for their great customer service and attention to detail in everything they do. Please message me through tripadvisor and happy to send your comments to the hotel and investigate this. Regards, Nick
