Benjarong - Makati City Pilipinas

Spectacular spread! They definitely weren’t joking when they said this was the no. 1 Thai Restaurant in Manila The Green Chicken Curry and the Seafood Pad Thai were the dinner highlights but the Crispy Fried Black Pepper Sea Bass was a scene stealer of the night! We were surprised with how the meal portions, flavours, and overall experience came at such reasonable prices! Highly recommend to visit when you are in the area. You won’t be disappointed at all!

I had an excellent experience with the Blue Crab Dumpling Soup and the Soursop Ice Cream made by Chef Ja. However, the ambiance didn't feel very intimate—perhaps it was the lively crowd that was dining alongside us. If you’re in the Metro and craving Thai cuisine, this restaurant should definitely be at the top of your list.

Dinner at @benjarong_manila — by far the best Thai resto we've tried. Loved everything we ordered and the servings were massive!

The Benjarong Tasting Menu definitely ranks up there in my books. From how everything was presented, to how Chef Ja explains each component, down to the fireworks of flavor that find its way to your palate, this is a tasting menu that is sure to take you on a wonderful journey. If there was a statement to perfectly describe the dish line up, it would be — the perfect Thai balance of freshness, acidity, innovation, and textures, beautifully presented for your palate to enjoy. Each dish had their own special flare to it, but if I were to choose one it would definitely be the Tom Yum soup because of the depth of flavor it had. Presentation-wise it was phenomenal, taste-wise it was pure magic. I love how Chef Ja and her team choose to play around with classic Thai dishes, yet are able to to turn them into completely different dishes that don’t just look beautiful but taste wonderful as well.
