And a "dreamy" location it is for sure.

Food & Drinks: The restaurant menu takes you on a journey through the innovative and tasteful world of Thai cuisine, served as both tapas and more filling mains. To go with the food, there is a nice selection of wines, and also a bar serving crafted mixology cocktails.

What we think: Found on the 27th floor, the restaurant is part beautiful and intimate indoor dining room, but also holds a stylish rooftop terrace, where you can enjoy amazing panoramics over the Bangkok skyline. This place is very calm and harmonius and usually there are tables available for drop in as well.

Dress code: The Nimitr Rooftop dress code is smart casual.

Overview

In short: SEEN-venues can be found in both Sao Paulo and Lisbon, and since early 2019 also on top of the AVANI Riverside Bangkok Hotel. This very stylish and art déco inspired rooftop bar and restaurant offers amazing views over the Bangkok skyline and the Chao Phraya River.

Food & Drinks: Here you can indulge in a modern Portuguese-Brazilian menu from celebrity chef Olivier da Costa. How about a Seafood Risotto or a Wagyu Steak? Or maybe order some pieces from the Sushi Bar? Whatever your choice is, you can expect food of the very highest class. After dinner you should (of course) head up to the rooftop bar for some beats and amazing cocktails by the award-winning mixologist team.

What we think: Up here you'll get one of the best river views in Bangkok. The location is a little bit off from many other rooftops in BKK, which is why you'll get a very unique view from the terrace. Very stylish in setting and luxurious in vibe and service, the prices at SEEN Bangkok are still very human. And given the views on display, you could even call it a bargain.

In short: Yào Restaurant & Rooftop Bar is a sky-high Chinese dining destination and lounge overlooking Bangkok, perched on top of the smashing Bangkok Marriott Hotel The Surawongse. Set over several levels, Yào offers both a very stylish indoor restaurant on the 32nd floor, and a spacious open-air rooftop bar and terrace above.

During weekend afternoons you can also enjoy Chinese Afternoon Tea. The top floor Yào Rooftop Bar is the given nightly destination to mix lighter bites with drinks and al fresco vibes, with a menu including both refreshing signature cocktails and a tasty selection of modern Chinese Dim Sum. But for a more filling lunch and dinner, make reservations at the indoor Yào Restaurant.

What we think: Opened in 2018, Yao is a great Bangkok rooftop bar for a fun, cozy and relaxing night out with friends. Set over several levels, the Yao Restaurant serves both traditional and innovative Chinese creations in a stylish and modern atmosphere. Come for lunch or dinner and enjoy Peking Duck, Dim Sum or something else from the rooftop restaurant menu.
