3 months agoThe ambiance and decor have great vibes. The flatbread was tasty, but the beef tartare was not as expected and pairing it with fried wonton chips didn’t work well. With 17% service charge and vat, the overall price is relatively high compared to other Italian-style restaurants in the same area, which felt a bit disappointing considering the portion and taste.

5 months agoIf you are looking for a chic spot with a vibrant atmosphere and attentive service, Chenin is a solid choice, though it comes with a premium price tag. The Atmosphere & Service The restaurant has a great vibe—modern, intimate, and bustling. The tables aren't particularly large, so it feels cozy (perhaps a bit tight for some), and booking in advance is absolutely essential. One of the highlights of the night was the service. The staff are excellent; they speak fluent English and are incredibly proactive, ensuring water glasses are topped up throughout the meal without having to ask. Baby Cos Salad: This was the standout of the evening. It was flavorful, well-executed, and highly recommended. Value for Money & Parking This is where the experience becomes a bit more "boutique." The food is undoubtedly good, but it does feel overpriced for the portion sizes. On top of the menu prices, be prepared for a 10% service charge. Parking Tip: If you are driving, there is valet parking available at the nearby OFTR Bar for a flat fee of 100 Baht.

4 months agoReally nice vibe and the staff were super friendly. Food also looks crazy good when it comes out — presentation is definitely a strong point here. Taste-wise, it’s mostly rich and salty, kinda classic Italian style. Prices are pretty expensive too. The grilled branzino was actually really good, but the annoying part was… it still had sharp bones inside. One literally poked my mouth, so eating it wasn’t enjoyable at all. If the bones were crispy and edible, that would’ve been fine, but this wasn’t. For the price, it honestly didn’t feel worth it. Overall, I’d give credit for the vibe, service, and plating. But flavor is just okay, the restroom situation isn’t great (shared + limited), and the prices are a bit too much for what you get.

3 months agoI loved the vibe of the restaurant but sadly I did not love that pasta. At all. I hate writing mediocre reviews but I feel like it’s good to share this for anyone that would order this pasta. It was overcooked. Not Al dente. And the sauce was like chef boyardee / too sweet which I guess is the style of this dish but if you’re looking for classic Lumache Rigate, if avoid this and try another one. The other pastas looked amazing. As for the cheese city flatbread. The bouncy doughiness was shocking and impressive. I loved it. The size is smaller that I expected which is perfect for sharing or solo eater. But sadly I have to dock it down for that pasta. I wouldn’t say this is my fave place for a meal even though it was a high recommendation from a few people. Vibe is high tho. Cool space. Staff very friendly too. I walked in solo and got a seat within 15 mins. Had a glass of wine outside before sitting down.

7 months agoI love Chenin, all of their dishes are fantastic! This is already my fifth visit this year and I’ve tried most of the items on the menu since it’s quite concise. Everything I’ve ordered has been excellent every single time. My favorites are their focaccias and you absolutely have to order the burrata to go with them. The cheese is beautifully milky and creamy, and it pairs perfectly with the warm bread.
