The skewers were good, the chicken was hard & so little I could practically count how many pieces were on it (& for almost $30) its not worth the price, not for the amount of food nor for the quality

Food was really good! However the service was not great at all - our server was rude, & tried to gaslight me when he included items in my dish I DID NOT WANT. He tried to make me seem like I was crazy, when everyone at my table verified I was right. The jokes he made were also slightly uncomfortable!

Read many good reviews so our expectations were probably high. However, from the moment we walked in, the experience was good at best. We were shown to a table on the upper outer terrace covered in ants. We were moved inside at our request, but placed directly under the aircon outlet, so we were cold. The bottled beer I was served was beyond its best before date (only be a few days, so I wouldn't be mentioning this but for all of the other small things that just show a lack of attention to detail). A shared starter of Karee Puffs were really nice, but they came out on a bed of green leaves that were well beyond eating. They were dry, wilted & dead. I mentioned this to the server who didn't express any view & just shrugged his shoulders. The mains were tasty, but only warm, not helped by the aircon or the fact that we did not get new warm plates (our starter plates were left on the table). My wife had a red chicken curry (indicated at one chilli spice level) & I had the green beef curry (2 chilli), but there was no spice/heat in my curry at all. Overall, the venue looks great, & the food was tasty, but warm at best & very poorly presented. This experience was just not as good as it could have so easily been. Small improvements in attention to detail would make a huge difference.

I've been to Siam about four or five times now, & overall, I would say it's a solid, well-rounded restaurant. The space itself is elegant without being over the top. You can tell the restaurant is aiming for that more elevated dining experience, & in most ways, it succeeds.

Let's start with what keeps me coming back: the table d'hôte. It's kind of their signature offering, a generous spread of five to six starters, two mains, rice, & either tea or coffee to wrap up for 90$. It's a great format if you want to explore the menu in one sitting. You get variety, consistency, & good value for what you receive.

The appetizers are solid across the board. From crispy spring rolls & chicken satay to those coconut shrimp skewers & dumplings, everything comes out fresh, well plated, & balanced in flavour. The sauces are well thought out, sweet chili, peanut, nuoc cham, & the mango salad adds that much-needed crunch & acidity. It's not reinventing anything, but it's all well executed.

The real star, though & I don't say this lightly is the beef red curry! It's phenomenal. The beef is so tender it literally melts in your mouth, like butter on a hot skillet. The curry itself is rich, velvety, & full of depth. You get layers of flavour: creamy coconut, a punch of chili heat, those unmistakable notes of lemongrass & kaffir lime, all balanced in a way that hits the palate just right. I've had it every single time I've gone, & it's one of the few dishes I'd actually describe as addictive.

Now... the less exciting part. The table d'hôte hasn't changed in at least three years. Same starters, same mains, same everything. & while it's comforting to know what to expect, I do think the menu could benefit from a bit of seasonal rotation or at least one or two new additions. For a place that positions itself on the higher end, a little evolution would go a long way. When I go out for this kind of dining experience, part of the joy is in discovering new things... & right now, that's missing.

That's where the five-star rating drops a bit for me. It's not the quality, that's there. It's the lack of freshness in the offering over time.

The drink menu is solid but leans expensive. Cocktails are well made & beautifully presented, tropical, often layered with Thai flavours like basil, ginger, or mango, but again, it adds up quickly, especially if you're doing the full menu.

Service is generally great, professional & warm, & the pace is well managed. You can feel the intention of offering a more refined experience. That said, I did have one visit that really missed the mark. One of the mains came out bland, which was a shock given how flavourful the food usually is. The dish was genuinely disappointing, & unfortunately, the staff didn't acknowledge it or offer anything to make up for it, which, to be honest, was a bit of a letdown at this price point. But in fairness, it was a one-time thing out of several great meals.

Most recently, I brought my partner, who's from Asia & usually quite tough to impress when it comes to Southeast Asian cuisine. He was genuinely impressed, with the flavours, the attention to detail, & the plating. That reaction alone gave me some reassurance that despite the stagnant menu, the core quality is still there.

So yes, Siam is still a place I would recommend. The dishes are consistent, visually beautiful, & generally packed with flavour. It's just time for the menu to get the same kind of attention the plating & ambiance already do.
