Last evening we ate at one of the worst and most expensive Thai restaurants. If you want to spend half your night waiting for your meal, go there. We arrived at 6:30, waited approx. 1-1/2 hours for food which arrived in separate courses. First came our friend's main dish before his soup, my chicken satay came cold and was a very small and not very tasty portion. About 20 min later came my rice and then another 20 min later came our main dishes. One we could not tell if it was pork or beef and was so over cooked and not edible we sent it back for something else. The food was fair at best. We have eaten better food and larger portions at less trendy places without waiting and with a much fatter wallet in our pocket when leaving. The waitress never came back to ask us if we ever wanted another drink or even a glass of water. We wound up leaving Jitlada close to 8:30 in the evening - 2 hours after arrival. As far as I am concerned you can keep your overpriced and trendy restaurants and give me one with one good food and service speaking from someone who travels worldwide and has eaten with an open mind in many different locations. We have spent time in Thailand and have received better service at small local places - with better food -foreshame on this restaurant.
