This guide picks ten of the best for a date night, anniversary or proposal, from two-Michelin-star tasting menus to an affordable Thai table with a view.

How We Chose These Restaurants

This is an editorial selection, not a scientific or absolute ranking. We focused on setting, views and food, using the Michelin Guide Thailand 2026 and the restaurants' own menus and hotel websites to check addresses, prices and dress codes.

The guide is compiled from published sources, not from personal visits. Tasting menus change with the seasons, so check prices when you book.
