Amaya Food Gallery at Amari Bangkok — Restaurant in Thanon Phaya Thai Subdistrict

Mornings are indeed special at Amaya Food Gallery because a grand and yummy breakfast is waiting for you.

So without any delay, we headed for breakfast at Amaya Food Gallery. The restaurant is huge and has a buffet spread that includes everything you could possibly want for breakfast. Divided across different sections, there are fresh salads, croissants, breads, live omelettes, juices, cakes, sausages, potato wedges, eggs, cornflakes, muesli, fruits, and so much more. Different props across different sections made the place look even more vibrant.

However, I made my visit to a special counter which had something very close to my heart. Yes, it was Indian food. We were incredibly surprised to find that there was also Indian food in the breakfast buffet - yummy yummy Pav Bhaji, Chhole, Idli Sambar, and even a live Dosa counter. Witnessing Thai chefs cooking dosa was indeed a sight to behold. However, we also got to know that there is an Indian chef in the hotel and hence knew the taste will be incredible.

We got the opportunity to have dinner at Amaya Food Gallery too, not just once but twice. The buzzing restaurant we witnessed in the morning was calm and composed.

The dinner(s) were a gastronomic extravaganza. We had a mix of Indian, Italian and American food and relished every bit. Let me first tell you about my former love! Papdi Chaat....so yum and delicious followed by Vegetable Samosas...it was such a nice feeling to have these delicacies in a foreign land. It was followed by Kadai Paneer, Dal Tadka, and assorted Indian breads. Loved loved loved it. We also met the Indian chef who mentioned the masalas are all imported from India and thats the secret of the authentic taste that’s extended to the guests. For another late-night dinner at Amaya Food Gallery, we tried Caesar wrap, bread-crumbed Chicken Burger, Hyderabadi Chicken Biryani, Butter Chicken with assorted breads, everything was just so amazing. We also tried other delicacies like Greek Salad, Penne Arrabiata, Fish n Chips along with fresh coconut water! Everything was just so flavourful and appetizing. The meal concluded with a refreshing fruit platter...

International dinner buffet experience (Monday): Food is great, as you know from other reviews a wide selection of international dishes are served.

Warm dishes: All warm dishes are great and cooked fresh, the concept of having your food cooked in front of you is also very nice.

Sushi: rather plane and very simple, sadly there was not a wide selection to choose from, I was expecting tuna nigiri or unagi, sadly non were presented.

Desserts: Delicious and very light. The presentation was on point, like jewelery in a boutique.

Service: Very warm and professional, they are forward thinking and kind. The bartender was on point with his cocktails, serving us some delicious drinks. (300 BAHT per cocktail) - suitable price for the cocktails served, I do recommend you try one.

Verdict: 1200 BAHT is a heft price to pay per person, still feel rather vexed, since I did get less, than what I was expecting. It was disappointing to see that not all food stalls were open. The Italian cuisine and Thai cuisine were closed off and instead put together with one stall/booth (ofc this also meant that it lacked in variety from these two cuisine choices). However the warm dishes and desserts that were presented along with the service, were immaculate.

Recommended: take advantage of the cocktail happy hour. 18:00pm - 20:30pm (Buy one get one free, same cocktail only) ask for the happy hour menu since not all cocktails fall under...

Amari Watergate excels in every sense, from the extremely attentive concierge and his team, to the breakfast staff Ploy, Pook Pik, Kimmy, Zee and team. On the 9th floor, Club Sirara Namtarn continues to ensure all of our needs are met with a warm genuine smile every time. It is definitely worth upgrading to take advantage of the added benefits of “Club” Siraa access. Khun Nathan (Director of Rooms) has ensured his stamp of excellence in exceptional client service is evident at this establishment. I must also mention Tem (concierge) who guaranteed delivery of a suitcase with medication to another province, all received within 24 hours. I will definitely return to Amari and I am confident this wonderful service will continue. We had a one bedroom corner suite which was clean, spacious with all amenities, the lovely housekeeping lady, Nang & Koth, go about their business with a lovely smile to ensure the cleanliness of our suite and needs are exceeded. Congratulations Khun Nathan and team on making our stay so memorable, you have all gone above and beyond ~ my grandchildren will be thrilled with their jerseys etc (the places you recommended were of great quality and saved me a lot of running around)!! We will be...
