Riverside Bar and Restaurant (The), Chiang Mai

This restaurant sits in an attractive setting on the River Ping, with views of Doi Suthep and the old city of Chiang Mai. Patrons can dine on the riverside terrace, or join the nightly riverside boat trip to enjoy a meal while gliding past old temples and houses on the riverbanks. Subtle candlelight creates a romantic atmosphere. The menu offers top-notch Thai, Western and vegetarian fare. Try the mussels in garlic sauce, fish maw soup, and the fried soft-shell crabs served with green mango and three-flavors sauce. Soft drinks, a full bar and exotic cocktails are available.
