    Songkran was wonderful! Each dish had a distinct and unique flavor. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and experience. The ambiance was nice and trendy. The service was great. This was one of the best Thai restaurants we have been to in a long time.

    The food is really amazing! This is probably the best Thai restaurant in The Netherlands. They use real Thai ingredients (instead of cheaper Dutch) but still prices are sooo reasonable. Ied and her son Men run the kitchen. Best dishes for me are the fried fresh dorade with a spicy fish/lime sauce and definitely the Phaneng Kai (chicken in a very rich flavored thick coconut sauce). And are you really in for some spice: the Som Tam (raw papaya salad) is the perfect starter for you! The owner Bob serves generous wine by the glass and is always in for a friendly chat or a joke. We come here at least every two weeks, which should say enough!

    This Thai restaurant is a little off the beaten track for tourists, which is a shame as the food is fantastic. We had a warm welcome from the owner, who advised that the chefs were his wife and son. Freshly cooked Thai food always takes a little while to prepare, so we enjoyed a drink before starters arrived. The menu was extensive and is accompanied by a reasonable wine list. If you are looking for something different in Amsterdam, give this restaurant a go.

    The best Thai in all of Amsterdam! Authentic flavours, I actually fell like I’m back in Thailand when eating here! Kudos to the chef and also the excellent table service we received. Very attentive and lovely to chat to. Will come again and again for sure :)

    The staff was very friendly and the food was really delicious. We've already added Songkran to our list, and we'll definitely visit there regularly.

    Very friendly owner and excellent food. Wine was good too. If you don't like to spicy, tell them. They all cook fresh. I definitely recommend it.

    The food is truly excellent, just like being in Thailand. We loved everything we ordered and the spice level was just right. The problem is the restaurant is popular but there are only three people working in the restaurant-two in the kitchen and one man who takes orders and serves the food. He was so friendly and brought what he could as soon as it was ready. You can’t really be annoyed that everything is freshly cooked, but our meal did take a lot longer than we had anticipated. That said, we would go back as long as we aren’t in a hurry to get somewhere afterwards.

    By far the best Thai food I’ve had in town. We had the fish cookies, stuffed chicken wings, beef in oyster says, and fried noodles with shrimp. All of it was amazingly delicious. Do try the stuffed chicken wings as a starter. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is small, so I recommend booking in advanced.

    Food was ok. One waiter for the whole restaurant on a Saturday night is a bit ridiculous, even though he was friendly.

    A nice enough place with decent enough food, although Pad Thai tasted way sweeter than normal or desirable. But the place was full and had one waiter only who seemed not to cope with the number of tables. Result was insufficient attention and too long a wait. Will not return.

    probably the best thai food you can get in Amsterdam. Perfect ambiance, good wines. The food tastes as fresh as you get is thailand's best restaurants. If you want a real thai food experience.. Songkran is the place!

    Amazing food, incredible choice, fantastic and extremely kind service, maybe the decoration could be improved (at the beginning my friend felt it was a bit too old fashioned)

    Songkran was even better than expected after reading all the reviews online. The food was sublieme although it did take some time to get the main dishes served. The extra waiting time was well worth it though so I would suggest to take sufficient time to eat here.

    Very welcoming service and nice quality food. We had two curries and the flavours were very good. The size of the meals was good value and the wine list was very reasonable. Will definitely go back again sometime soon.

    Good Thai food but unfortunately my dish, a fried dorade fish in oyster sauce and garlic, was too salty. The service is also good, friendly, but very very slow. So, be patient!

    Amazing Thai - in my opinion, the best in town. Their whole baked fish (Dorade?) are amazing, I had 72 last night: sublime: the right level of crunch on the outside, and fresh and correctly cooked on the inside. The dipping sauce for the fish is amazing: just the right amount of heat.
