    This huge place (over 1500 seats) is both a market and a restaurant where you can go to the counter, look at the live seafood and choose the one you like. Tell the chef how you want it prepared and have it ready in a while...

    Lobster, prawns, King Crabs...

    The slogan of Seafood Market is "If it swims we have it" and certainly the array of fresh fish, shellfish, lobsters, crabs and other seafood seems to bear this out.

    It is more like a large food court that a restaurant, seating I would imagine into the hundreds. your A waiter helps you choose what you want - not just seafood but vegetables and other accompaniments - from what looks like a huge fresh fish/deli counter at a supermarket. Fun in itself as you try and decide whether you want another huge shrimp or that extra bit of cuttlefish. If you are unsure the waiter is there to advise and, later, advice will also come on how best to have the food cooked and served such as in a in a Thai Curry Sauce, a soup, deep fried, boiled etc..

    The standard of cooking is excellent and the service speedy. Seeing your piece of fish return having been tuned into a delicious chilli based curry is like the food equivalent of "Stars in Their Eyes".

    The cost is based on what you choose, its weight and the way it is cooked so you can either choose carefully and keep the price down or - especially if you go for the lobster - splash out and rack the price up. I would imagine a good average would be 30.00-40.00 sterling for two including drinks and a good amount of food. This is certainly not going to be the cheapest meal you can have in Bangkok but it will probably be one of the most memorable.

    We had lobster, cuttlefish, huge shrimps, white fish and so much more I can't remember. It was all wonderful!

    Great variety of seafood and wine.

    A bit touristy, but well worth it. Outside the restaurant it looks like 100 iron chefs have decided to have a competition. Inside it looks like an oversized foodcourt in a super market.

    Grab a shopping cart, fill it up with pomfret, huge-jumbo (U 2-3) freshwater prawns, lobster, crabs, clams, etc and pay at the register.

    Bring it to your table and let the waiters help you decide what the best way to cook it is.

    I would highly recommend the crabs, lobster thermidor (better than in France), grilled freshwater prawns and pomfret fried with garlic.

  • The Seafood Market and Restaurant is a large destination spot in Bangkok. The main dining room seats 1500 people. There are private dinign rooms upstairs.

    I was lucky enough to enjoy this restaurant with my Thai friends. We were escorted upstairs to our private dining room, and then began the adventure of selecting our seafood from the display tanks. There were fish of all types, and most were still swimming! After we made our selections, my Thai friend directed how each entree should be prepared.

    After 10 minutes or so, the dishes began arriving to our table, where we ate family style, in the Thai tradition. There were 7 of us eating, and we had 7 servers. The service was incredible. The dishes ranged from traditional Tom Yun Kung Soup, to Tiger Prawns in Butter (DELICIOUS!), whitefish, and scallops. Everyhting was immaculately prepared. It was an unforgettable meal!

    The Tiger Prawns were so delicious. they had a delicate flavor, and melted in your mouth.

  • Really fresh sea food! you can choose your own fish on a huge variety ( prawns , lobster, snapper , oysters ecc ecc ) and the way to cook it express for you.
    there is also a good sushi maker with very nice tempura and shushi and sashimi!
    you pay for the fish and for the cooking separately depending how you want it to be cooked.

    I liked their sign
    by Hewer
    I was was curious about this place when I saw the sign and I eventually went and checked it out. A unique experience, that's for sure.

    Basically you walk in and you are led to a table. From there, you place your drinks order and then you are assigned a 'personal shopper', with whom you wander around and select your dinner from all the fish in the deli at the back of the restaurant. I got a bit carried away here but the choice was amazing. I think I ended up getting about twenty oysters, not to mention prawns and lobster. Anyway, once you have picked out your seafood, you pay for it at the cash register and then it's back to the table, where the chef marches out and asks you how you would like each dish prepared.

    The food was great and if I could recommend anything, it would have to be the tiger prawns in chilli sauce. This restaurant is a bit expensive for Bangkok (if you have a big appetite) but it's the kind of thing you should do once.

    Seafood Market & Resterant
    A very big seafood centre, including fresh seafood & vegetable market and resterant. You buy fresh seafood (still moving in water) and vege, they will cook them for you. Interesting.

    Curry/Chilli Crab, Grilled Lobster & Tiger Prawn, Grilled Fish.
