JHOL Coastal Indian Cuisine

One of my absolute favorite restaurants in Bangkok—and easily one of the best places for Indian food. That said, I wouldn’t classify it as your typical Indian spot. Jhol specializes in coastal Indian cuisine, offering a refreshing and distinct contrast to the more commonly found North Indian dishes. I’ve tried most of the items on the menu, including the tasting menu a few times, and honestly, everything is outstanding. That said, there are a few dishes I keep coming back for: Masala Maska Bun – never thought I’d enjoy this so much, but now it’s a must-order. Kerala Mutton Roast Fried Chicken Wings Ghee Roast Chicken – hands down my favorite. I usually skip the tasting menu just so I can order this. Lamb Shank – amazing, but definitely best shared with a group. Other highlights include the pork ribs, biryani, and pork chop, all of which are well worth trying. I usually skip dessert since I’m not big on Indian sweets, but the savory side more than makes up for it. The staff and manager are incredibly welcoming, attentive, and always happy to offer recommendations. In short: a must-visit if you enjoy Indian food—or even if you think you don’t. It’s a place I take every guest visiting me in Bangkok.

Just had an absolutely fantastic dinner at Jhol in Bangkok and I'm still thinking about it. This isn't your average Indian restaurant—it's a whole new level of modern, coastal Indian cuisine. Every single dish was a perfect balance of traditional flavors and unique twists. The service was impeccable, and the staff were great at explaining each dish. The vibe is sophisticated but still really relaxed and welcoming. It's clear why this place is getting so much buzz. If you're looking for an unforgettable meal, this is the place to go. I highly recommend it!

I’ve been craving Indian food for so long, and Jhol totally exceeded all my expectations! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Every single dish was delicious and surprisingly easy to enjoy—even for Indian cuisine newbies. What made it even more special was the seafood twist! I especially loved the seabass curry so creamy and flavorful, it deserves a full hundred stars! Highly recommend everyone to give it a try! 💛🌶️🍛

Excellent experience all around and some of the best Indian cuisine I've ever had. Every dish was well crafted, portioned nicely and the flavors are strong, they do not hold back on the spices! Highly recommend.

Delicious Southern Indian food, fresh ingredients, tender chicken, flavorful and fresh crabs with zero shells; their Masala bread is heartwarming. Great atmosphere, great service. One of my favourite progressive Indian in Bangkok.

☆☆☆☆ Food ☆☆☆☆☆ Atmosphere ☆☆☆☆☆ Service ☆☆☆ Value Situated at a nice house turned restaurant. We couldn’t decipher the Indian menu, so opted for the tasting menu B2,200++ and wine pairing B1,599++. Each course came as bite-size, with aromatic spices and texture, but harder filling. So we added lamb rib (small piece) at extra cost. With wine pairing starts off with a nice champagne, followed with white, red then a riesling wine to accompany desserts. Tasting Menu is more expensive than we expected for small portions, but still enjoyed the attentive service and the warm vibe. No parking except street, or pay parking at nearby hotel.

Thoroughly enjoyed the food and service here. Great date place. They serve coastal Indian cuisine so if you’re like me who are more familiar with British Indian Curries (butter chicken/tikka masala/etc) you are off to an adventure and forced to venture out. What a delight. My group of 8 ordered family style. We had: Mini Apam Cashew Gobi 65 (like chicken 65 but with cauliflower yum) Tanga Chili Crab Badanekai Ennegayi - eggplant Ghugni Kochuri - white pea curry Pineapple Mensakai - roasted pumpkin curry Chili Pepper Crab Karaikudi Butter Garlic Tiger Prawns Kundapura Ghee Roast Chicken Kurobuta Pork Chop Vindaloo Malabar Parota bread Cashew Ghee rice All was worth ordering again except white pea curry cu the other dishes shin more for me. So so good. Excellent job.
