The food is OK but the service is horrible. I came to the diner quite early around 5ish, having seen reviews online. I chose to sit outside on a slightly big table. I ordered a crab a vegetable and a bottle of beer and started to tackle the plate of crabs after they came. Then people started to stream in and came an old couple ( an Asian lady and a white man) while I was listening to music with earphones on and happily wolfing down the crabs. Then I somehow heard the granny mumbling something to the effect that they chose a small table cuz they didn’t want to take a big one with only two ppl. At that time I didn’t pay much attention cuz I was wearing my earphones. Later the owner(I assume he is) came to me asking whether I wanted to swap my table with the couple. I happily replied yes even though I hadn’t finished my dinner yet with too many plates on the table cuz of the crab shells. But the granny turned the offer down and told the owner they’d like to sit where they were. Somehow the owner started to give me faces. I chose a bigger table to accommodate the need for lots of plates to hold the seafood shells, not because I wanted to occupy a bigger table for myself and I defly don’t deserve the cold faces I got there simply because of the couple sitting on a smaller one on top of their refusing to swap tables. Well, the incident doesn't affect my vacation mood but the service defly doesn’t match the reviews I saw online!

Read moreIf you are finding this place on Google, it's likely because you are looking for veggie people food. That being said, this place is SO much better than The Whole Earth which will also pop up in your results. The food is comparably priced, but better! And the staff is SO much nicer, never it is a family owned and run business! This would definitely be a regular place for me if I was local despite the higher prices.
I wanted to try everything on the menu, however given lack of funds and room in my stomach I restrained myself. I mean, who has ever heard of walnut pate sushi?? I will have to figure that out later how to try to get some as I do no have time to come back during my stay in Chiang Mai this time.
I went with the Tom Yum as a previous review mentioned it being so phenomenal. Compared to the curry at The Whole Earth, the vegetables were actually cooked so HUGE step up! Also there was spice, there was flavor, there was black rice for my first time that was excellent!
The only reason for not getting 5 stars was that I just didn't get that wow factor to the food that qualifies it to deserve that last star. Maybe other dishes, but not this one for me. The service could also have been better, but I went literally in the middle of Songkran so I will neither judge nor comment. Still...

My recent visit to Alice Restaurant in central Chiang Mai was nothing short of delightful. From the warm ambiance to the exceptional service, every aspect of my dining experience was top-notch.
What made the evening truly special was the insightful conversation I had with the manager, Chris. A fellow American, he not only ensured impeccable service but also engaged me in a great conversation about life in general. It’s not every day you find a manager who takes the time to connect with patrons on a personal level.
In a unique twist, I discovered that Chris’s best friend was hanging out at the restaurant as well. Their camaraderie added a friendly and welcoming vibe to the place, making it feel like more than just a dining spot.
The menu at Alice Restaurant boasts a diverse range of dishes, each prepared with precision and bursting with flavor. The attention to detail in both the cuisine and service is truly commendable.
If you’re looking for a memorable dining experience with a touch of personal connection, Alice Restaurant in central Chiang Mai is the place to be. Kudos to Chris and the entire team for creating an atmosphere where great food and meaningful conversations seamlessly blend together. I’ll...
