coutsa Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Hi, We are coming to Bangkok soon and saw an add for Tony Romas, I believe they are located in Siam Paragon Shopping Center. Are they any good? I saw a pic of their Ribs that a customer took and they looked fantastic. Tried Hard Rock when I was there last time and wasnt too impressed.

gotlost Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I have had many of fantastic meals at Tony Roma's at 87 Sukumvit Road. http://www.tonyromas.com/files/locations_w...ountry=Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nio Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Tony Roma's at Siam Paragon Mall is super expensive and the taste is the same as in the USA. For 2 people to have full slab ribs and appetizers with coke for drinks, looking at around 1800 thb + Tax, VAT, Service Charge jump the bill right up there Never had a problem with food quality. There is also a Tony Roma's at Sukhumvit Soi 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
game4shame Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 never been myself but a mate of mine speaks v highly of the sukhumvit one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 My opinion is that they are not bad, but way overpriced. The Duke's in Chiang Mai sell an enormous meal that is too big to finish with a salad, potatoes and cornbread for about 200 baht and the ribs are of similar quality.

I've been to that dukes place - you're right re portion size........holy 5hit - I thought I could handle a big meal but the portion's in that place are unbelievable.

skippybangkok Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Yeh, Took Leh Dee............ in food land........... Big legal issue...... rental management company collecting rents did not have right to rent......... real owner took over and is annoying everyone to leave. Apparently want to demolish the building ( rumour has it building >40 yrs old - BMA forcing them to demolish too ) and build hotel or something.

I tried the cheeseburger in the Sukhumvit branch and it was a big portion but just OK so I never finished it.. Nothing special. But the price was way over the top imo. Never been back.

I prefer Hard Rock if I eat at one of these places its expensive but usually decent food especially the burgers at the Hyde Park Corner branch...Bangkok's aint bad either mind you.

I forced my Thai friend to eat there with me. I was swearing on how good it was, the best ribs etc. We both got sick from some of the greasiest coldest toughest ribs ever. Dark place to eat and not very good service either. A major disappointment because I love Tony Romas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkjames Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 That's too bad about foodland. where will the resident transient population hang out if this goes ahead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) ^off to the street stalls, good pad thai place not far from foodland. (on the corner of the arab quarter) Edited March 30, 2010 by britmaveric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
game4shame Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) the foodland store is handy and the bar is good for quick and cheap food. however, it's always too busy during the day and the scabs fighting over seats - usually arabs - can be slightly off-putting.

Honolulu Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Sorry to hear about your bad experience at Tony Romas. I have eaten at TR's all over the world and never had a bad meal. Expensive? That's a given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
