Great location near Siam Square and BTS. Moderate prices, 'traditional' décor, good variety of Thai dishes. Been there twice, enjoyed it each time. Introduced first by Thai local friends, so it must be fairly 'authentic' too!

We had a very good diner, with very good food and nice staff. Easy access, right next to the bts. The restaurant is very nice. Prices are reasonable viewing the quality of the food. Don't arrive too late though, or you might have to order your desert before having started to eat.

Having returned to Bangkok after 20 years, we found it too generally too westernised.. but dining at this restaurant brought back old memories. Food was excellent and the service was prompt. The tom yum kung was not too spicy (but spicy enough) and the papaya salad just right with basil chicken and rice. The music provided by the pleasant young lady on the Thai harp just made our final evening!
Wish we had been there earlier during our trip and with a bigger group to have tried more dishes. Will definitely go there again next time.

I remember Ban Khun Mae as it was one of the first restaurants that I went to on my first trip to Bangkok many years ago. It has become my to-go restaurant on each of my trip to the capital of Thailand. You can easily spot this restaurant (traditional Thailand house exterior) from Novotel Siam Square. You'd be greeted with the cosy interior with traditional Thai instrument playing on your way in... food quality has remained consistent all these years and that was important. Price-wise slightly on the high side but it was worth the $$$ paid

expect a long q if you went there during peak hours.. problem is there is no one to register your q.. u got to look for a gentleman wearing a suit for a number, if u ask other service staffs, they will just tell u "30 mins".. price is decent for the quality but not a must eat for me
