ORANJII YAKINIKU&SHABU (Phahon Yothin 11) — Restaurant in Phaya Thai Subdistrict

Overall, my experience at this restaurant was just okay. The parking situation was a bit inconvenient, with a short walk required to get to the restaurant from BigC. I'm not sure how the parking would be during busy dining hours. We parked where the restaurant recommended, but there were also parking spaces available along the street in front of the restaurant.

One thing I liked about this place was the private dining booths and the attentive service. However, I found that the 1,599 Baht set menu was not worth the price for several reasons. The sushi, including the salmon, had below average quality and tasted very frozen. The cube steak was average, nothing special. The gyutan, was too thick. The edamame was soggy wet. All the side dishes were not up to standard quality. The only thing that I enjoyed was the hokkaido ice cream, which was included as the only dessert option. The river prawn, however, was quite good. There were less than 5 items on our set menu that were enjoyable, but having to eat the same few items on the buffet made the experience very...

I'd like to thank Oranjii staff for an unforgettable experience. For the first time in my life I left an all you can eat restaurant hungry. We visit this Japanese Yakiniku restaurant after reading all the shiny reviews here and ended up with a big disappointment. Food was just average, nothing special but the attitude of staff was really interesting. There was a language barrier and I understand that but after chosing the set we want it's all about pointing out what we want from the menu. So you should expect that it should go smooth. But it didn't.

The problem was that staff just didn't want to take orders from us because they were too shy I guess. At some point it was really awkward to see everyone else is getting non stop food and eating in the restaurant and we were just trying to get their attention so we could order anything. In the end we just had whatever we could get, paid and left.

Assuming everything was alright I would give a well deserved 3 star but that's it. So if you don't know the local language try other...

I had buffet at this restuarant about 5 days ago. Overall is good. Buffet of this branch is cost 599 baht for 90 min(include drinks eg. Greentea, softdrink,...).

Pros quality of meat and salmon sashimi are great for this buffet rate service is good waiting time for each order is ok. I think because of 7 tables available and customer can sit only 1-2 people per table(COVID-19 rules for restuarant). (But not sure in normal situation without this rule you'll wait for long time or not 😂😂) many sauces for yakiniku variety of menus can choose yakiniku only pan, or yakiniku with shabu pan. So worthy for this buffet rate!!! dessert is hokkaido milk ice cream, taste is great too!

Cons (actually none for me 😅) no choice for some expensive japanese menu eg. Unagi sushi, foie gras sushi,... (But acceptable for the situation they have only 599 baht buffet. I think if the situation get better, there'll be more rate buffer choices eg 899 or 1000+ which have these expensive...
