WHY GO? The prime appeal of Amontre is its convenience. Situated in the heart of the Silom business district, it is open from dawn until midnight, providing affordable, enjoyable food throughout the day.

WHAT TO ORDER? The quality of the Western food is fine although the portions are a little on the small side. Beer-battered fish and chips is a fairly authentic approximation of the traditional British dish and linguine will delight those with more continental European tastes. The Thai menu is modern, much like the restaurant’s decor, and spaghetti tom yum is a perfect example of the culinary benefits that Western ideas and ingredients can bring to Thai cuisine. Other highlights from the Thai menu include pan-fried sea bass and Hokkaido scallop. The lunch menu is perfect for those who like a bit more than a snack in the middle of the day with innovative ideas including crumbed chicken focaccia BLT and vegetable lasagna.

There is a small selection of red and white wines and an extensive collection of cocktails.
