We used to eat here frequently before the COVID-19 lockdown of Manila. The food was authentically Thai, as expected from a hotel of Thai origin. We have tried all types of dishes, from appetizers to main meals to dessert. The classics: pad thai gung sod, tom yum goong, khao klug ka pi (bagoong rice), khao niew ma muang (mango sticky rice) and kanom tako (coconut pudding) were among our favorites. The best dishes for us, so far, were the pla sam rod (sweet and sour fried sea bass), gai phad med ma muang (chicken and cashew) and khao phad rod fai (pork fried rice). The ambiance was classy, and service by the staff was very commendable.
We highly recommend this restaurant. Be prepared to shell out more money, though, as the prices are on the expensive side.
Fancy yet worth it. Great Thai Food.
This place was one of the best I've had and I chose the right place to celebrate me and my girlfriend's 10th year anniversary.
✔️ Food was amazing I can't say much

Again, thanks to Aldrienne, especially for the complimentary Sangria, also to Romel and Aisle for their wonderful service.
Thai food. We absolutely LOVE Thai food! In our opinion, it’s one of the most flavorful and complex cuisines that we have ever had. It has amazing character and balance of different Southeast Asian flavors. Thai food is simply irresistible. In this edition of EATSplorations, we will be sharing our EATSperience of Authentic Thai Cuisine at Benjarong in Dusit Thani Manila! Benjarong is considered to be one of the best Thai restaurants in town and we were really excited to find out about what makes their food so special. As first-time diners in one of Metro Manila’s most iconic Thai restaurants, what must we order? Shall we order on our own or shall we seek some expert advice from one of its servers? Keep on reading to find out what we EATSperienced at Benjarong in Dusit Thani Manila!
For a great Thai food. I think there is nothing better then this restaurant.
The only disk not I would tell you to avoid is there 72 hour toasted beef. Its really nothing great.
But apart from that, its hard to go wrong in any of there dishes.
The ambiance is excellent.
Its one of my families favourite restaurant of late.
Elegant dining and excellent service. Default spice level is mild, though. So specify if you want the authentic Thai experience.
A few weeks ago, Benjarong at Dusit Thani Manila was our venue for our weekly date night. I couldn’t remember the last time I found the perfect place for Thai food. So it was a thrilling night for me to relive the authentic flavors of Thailand and hoping I find love in these dishes we’ll try. Located at the ground floor, it was easy to to spot the restaurant from afar.
The Food:
See Sa Hai (Php 675) / Rate: 5/5
If you’re into barbecue flavors, See Sa Hai includes a stick of chicken, beef, pork, and tiger prawn with three different special Thai dipping sauces. More than the sweet and smoky taste of each meat, I enjoyed how each dipping sauce turns around the simplicity of barbecue to a more playful yet complementing flavor.
Tom Yam Gung (Php 425) / Rate: 5/5
The authenticity of Benjarong is more evident as soon as you taste their Tom Yam Gung soup. A splash of spicy, sour and sweet flavors in one bowl that is comforting in every sip you take. I’m warning you, this bowl of Tom Yam is intensely spicy! I suggest you order a glass of Thai Iced Tea in advance to wash out all the heat.
Pad Thai Gung Sod (Php 595) / Rate: 5/5
My visit to any Thai restaurant is incomplete without a plate of Pad Thai Gung Sod noodles. Without expectations, I was completely blown away by the perfection of this Pad Thai noodles. After trying many types of Pad Thai in the metro, I can confidently say that Benjarong’s version of Pad Thai is the best in the Philippines! This dish alone completely satisfies everything my taste buds is craving for.

Good thai restaurant. I tried here with my uncle and all the dishes we ordered were very tasty, cooked to our liking, and we felt it was authentic. I forgot the specific name but the thai chicken specialty was really good, aside from the curry dishes we ordered. We will definitely comeback!
Authentic Thai experience? Go to Benjarong! The ambiance is superb and serves the best thai experience in the heart of Makati! Suggestion: Gaeng khieo wan see krong neau toon pair it with just plain rice.
