hotandhumid Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I have my family coming over to stay for the holidays and thinking of having a night down here for the Elvis night, as it sounds like it could be a giggle. Any feedback from anyone here would be appreciated. Also, is the food good? Is it reasonably priced? Thanks H&H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonewolf99 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Foods good. prices are OK.....but the elusive Elvis has never been in there when I was dining....probably left the building.... Other Elvis impersonators I have seen in Pattaya range from not bad to appalling. They all seem to suffer from the normal Thai pronunciation problems. So some of the lyrics suffer. I notice this with Filipino bands and singers also.... Monkey House Rock...not the same as the original version...Pom Mai mee Wooden Jai...Guitar Poo Chai....any one else know some more ?

BIGJIMMY Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 We've been there a couple of times when 'Elvis' is on, if memory serves it's on a Wednesday, we eat there quite regularly as well, the food is good, prices ok and many chocolate desserts available, the 'Elvis' is good, it's all a bit of a tongue in cheek performance and very OTT but all good fun and makes for a cracking night, we also went when some of the family were over, good times.

CGW Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) Captains corner & the Boathouse are owned by the same people so will be the same Elvis , be aware though its not the real Elvis! he died just a couple of years ago if I remember rightly... seriously their impersonator died in quite tragic circumstances just a few years ago, obviously they have found a replacement....

But probably the best they can afford to offer given the customer base. Not bad, but better value meals around town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigjimmy You have to have the correct mindset, its a laugh, really, not for the serious Elvis fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
