Samsen Center : Thai food & Vegetarian & Vegan Bar & Restaurant — Restaurant in Ban Phan Thom Subdistrict

Worst restaurant in bangkok. When we arrived at the restaurant we saw a dish full of food, someone had left on a table. It looked strange but we read critics and we didn't think much of it. We should have given a second thought though. We ordered our food. Shrimps with rise. And beef well done with chips and salad at the same dish. One coca cola (they didn't have regular, so I thought OK zero coke should be fine) and one Leo beer. Both were not cold at all. They were not in the fridge. We asked one cold beer right away, but they didn't have any cold! And instead of having a cold beer, they brought us a backet with ice to put our beer in. After a while our food came. Shrimps and rise where not as warm as it should have been. But I ate them. Beef , was horrible. Some parts of the beef were not cooked at all, some other parts of it, was cooked better. My husband tried to eat the beef stake, but it was like chewing gum. He tried and he tried but he had to spit all bites on a tisue. They were not eatable. He tried to eat the stake with some of the fried potatoes that were on the dish, but it was still impossible. We called for the manager of the restaurant. She didn't care about we said. And although she could see that he hadn't eaten the beef stake ( it was in the tisues) and the rest in the plate, she said that he must pay for at least half of the beef price (from 550baht to 275 baht) or else she would call the police. So I had to pay, so I would ruin my night and fun any further. I forgot to tell you about the toilets. They smelled bad, mixed for women and men and dirty. Public toilets are better to be honest. I seriously recommend NOT going. We will never go there again. And not to mention they didn't...

It’s a cute place with lots of hammocks, hanging chairs and lanterns. Especially cute in the evening- it’s like a terrace, covered but you have plenty of space and practically it’s an outdoor place.

Their menu is really quite broad and contain some European, Chinese and Thai fusion food, also options for beef, duck and seafood etc. you can get a proper steak there! They have a good vegan selection. The food came very quickly, it was very pretty and tasty.

The big bonus is that you can pay with a credit card - no surcharge.

The negative is that for some reason there are so-so many mosquitoes! They seem to hide behind the furniture and even during the day there are just loads of mosquitoes- I literally had 12 bites just after 30 minutes. The mosquito situation made it very difficult for me to enjoy my stay unfortunately, but other than that, it’s a lovely set up and cool place...

Do NOT get your nails done here. I wish there was the 0 star option. They bring you to a shed in the back of the restaurant, their tools and environment are unsanitary. They offer good price (400 THB for gel removal + gel manicure) but as some who has been getting manicures for years, this is by far the worst experience. It genuinely seemed like it was the girl's first time ever doing nails. I had to tell her 5 times she was hurting me with the nail files. In one hour she barely managed to remove all my gel. She started doing my cuticles and I had to ask her to stop because she clearly didn't know how. She damaged my real nails that I have been growing for months. I ended up telling her I didn't want to get color and that I would leave after she was done removing the gel. Would never recommend this place to anyone, even for...
