Macky's Riverside Kitchen

This place is a gem! The food was so Delicious and each plate was presented in such a beautiful way. The menu has a wonderful selection of local & American food with a wide variety of choices. We loved visiting with Macky, the owner, and Will for sure visit again. You will not be disappointed.

I went to Macky's two times for dinner. I wouldn’t consider it cheap but the prices are reasonable and every dish I had (Isan/Thai food) was delicious and came in a good serving size even for western tourists. The staff was always attentive and polite. The second evening I got the chance to talk with the owner, who is a friendly lady with good English skills. Personally, I liked sitting outside with a nice view of the Mekong river. In the evenings it can get a little cold if it cools down and there is a little wind. You might want to bring something with long sleeves, especially if you’re sitting there for an extended period of time. Also, I would advise bringing some mosquito-repellent spray because, well… you’re next to water. When I was there, the shop next door always had someone sing to a questionable (regarding the pleasure of that musical experience) karaoke machine with their own guitar added to it. I’m sure they tried to the best of their ability. However, it was unfortunately too loud to just ignore it. It might be an added factor for your entertainment or something you might want to avoid. That’s up to you. Don’t let it keep you from going there yourself and miss out. I would visit Macky's again if I'm back in Nong Khai and recommend you have a taste yourself.

Great service, attentive and inviting, definitely the highlight of this place. Nice to be right beside the walking street. Food was good but nothing to be running back for. I think it's a good stop if you are not sure what to eat and want to eat something non-Thai.

The Western food here is very good and fairly priced, especially given the prime location right beside the Mekong River. We particularly enjoyed the fish and chips, the mushroom and beef pie was also quite delicious. Note: the small Naga statue and Mekong signs are located about 100m east of Macky's restaurant

Ate here a few times and at different times of the day and all of the food was of really good quality and tasted really good. And so were the drinks. We had Western, Thai and Isan dishes and all of them were very good. They put the tables right by the riverside in the evenings if the weather is good (except on Saturdays, due to the walking street market), so it is perfect for a sunset view and a nice breeze. There is also a nice view from the seats outside. But good anytime of day. One of the daytime staff had a bit of an odd attitude one day, but otherwise the service was good, friendly and as mentioned before, the food quality was good. If ordering eggs in a sandwich, you may want to mention soft fried eggs, if that's what you want, as they tend to cook them then through. See picture. Would be nice if they always brought you a glass of water without asking.

Great place along the Mekong walkway and near the market. Friendly staff. Choice of Thai and Western dishes, with many available in a vegetarian version. I liked the yoghurt with muesli and fruit for breakfast.

If you walk along the Nong Khai Riverside, you will see a few tables set out right next to the railing overlooking the river. You have found Macky's. The portions are generous, the lady friendly and some English spoken. A good place for couples.

Lovely location on the river, good ice chocolate and coffee. Green curry was super bland, though I'm assured it's normally good food, it was a Thai holiday so maybe different chefs. Western food is good.
