Savoey Family Friendly Authentic Thai RestaurantšŸ“Terminal 21 Asok Bangkok • Menu & Long Term Review


✍️ 26 Jan 2026. Back at Savoey @ Terminal 21 (Asok BTS station) for one of my favourite Thai seafood places in Bangkok.

This was my first overseas trip for 2026 and first dinner straight from the airport to here at Savoey @ Terminal 21. It's like from airport-to-airport as Terminal 21 Mall is an airport & travel themed shopping and food hub.

This was my second visit to Savoey T21 - Glad to be back as I had good memories of my last visit in 2022. It's already nearly 4 years 😲

Savoey is popular with locals and visitors alike. Founded as a street food stall in Patong, Phuket in 1972, the family still runs the much expanded business. 

Savoey has become a trusted household name for good quality fresh ingredients, well prepared dishes cooked the traditional way, served in accessible, modern comfortable environment at competitive prices.

Casual, family friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

Savoey now has over 10 outlets in Bangkok and Pattaya, and still counting. Always highly accessible near to public transit hubs. This outlet is at the airport themed Terminal 21 Mall at Asok BTS station and MRT Sukhumvit Station (SUK).

Full house for dinner on a Tuesday evening at SavoeyšŸ“Terminal 21. Couples, families, groups of friends, locals and foreigners.


I like the warm homely vibes here in the heart of the bustling big city.

We launched with Stir Fried Mud Crab in Yellow Curry Sauce.


One of Savoey's signatures and a must try.

Served whole with shell, the staff will hand pull the crab meat for you on request.

The locally caught crabs were live, the curry rich and creamy, just gently spiced so we can taste the natural sweetness of fresh crab meat.

I appreciate it that at Savoey, they still practice the tradition of individually weighing and price tagging the live crabs. The transparency gives customers a lot of confidence and builds trust. No shock bills at Savoey.

Jumbo Crab Meat Omelette.

So much fresh sweet crab meat wrapped in soft eggy spongy loaf. Have to have crab omelette every time I am in Thailand šŸ˜‹ Thai eggs are so fragrant!

More crab 😁

Stir Fried Jumbo Crab with Chili.

Indulgent, top quality sweet crustacean, its natural flavours accentuated by savoury sauce and spicy hot chili.

Braised Oyster Omelet.

Succulent oyster embedded in a spongy fried pancake with crisp frilly fringe. Stuffed with bean sprouts and scallion for crunch, juice and flavour.

Deep Fried Sea Bass with Fish Sauce and Mango Salsa.

Thick tender meat, expertly browned outside, while inside it was white and moist with natural sweetness well retained.

River Prawn Tom Yum Goong.

Spicy, sour, savoury, crustacean umami and sweet with fragrance from herbs and aromatics. Robust flavours but not overwhelming, I drank it all up like a delicious soup (which it is) šŸ˜‹

Hot and Sour Seafood Soup.

Loaded with fresh squid, one of my favourite seafood. Layers of spicy hot and sour from herbs and aromatics, with umami and sweet from seafood. Again, I drank it like a Thai as a slurpy soup.

Quick Fried Water Morning Glory (kang kong) with Chili.

Obligatory green with crunch, juice and flavour.

A lot of traditional and modern desserts. Just try whatever catches your eye and your sweet tooth will thank you 🤭

Savoey has a very wide selection of liquid concoctions from the classic milk tea to new creations blending tradition and modernity to indulge our sweet tooth.

Savoey's signature Roti Sai Mai Delight is a re-interpretation of the iconic cotton candy from Ayutthaya.

All of us had this Kale Smoothie to go with our sumptuous dinner. Tastes great and ate our vegetables as well 🤭 

Repeat visit & long term review. I like Savoey @ Terminal 21 even more now. Glad to be back and I hope many more happy returns šŸ˜‹

✍ 22 May 2022. 
Flying in from Phuket after three nights in La Vela Khao Lak resort, we kicked off our Bangkok foodie tour at the Savoey outlet in Terminal 21.

Six of us shared these sumptuous Thai dishes šŸ˜„

I took this picture right from where I was seated, looking out of the window. Savoey is located inside Terminal 21 Asok shopping mall which is at the doorstep of Asok (E4) BTS station. Get the seats along the large windows for grand Bangkok city views like this from the restaurant šŸ˜„

Savoey serves traditional Thai cuisine in a clean, spacious and convenient location. The murals tell me that Savoey is family friendly and emphasises fresh local ingredients. Savoey grew from a humble mom and pop eatery in Patong, Phuket (south Thailand) in 1972 to nine locations throughout Bangkok (and Pattaya) today.

First up, Savoey's popular stir fried mud crab in yellow curry sauce. This is one of Savoey's signature dishes from south Thailand. The thick yellow curry smothering the crab was sweetish with mild chili heat, rich with herb and spice flavours and aromas.

The crab meat was uber fresh with its natural, delicate crustacean sweetness shielded from the curry by the shell.

Steamed giant river prawn with garlic. The mildly spicy chopped garlic and drippy savoury sauce brought out the natural crustacean sweetness and umami from the giant river prawn's thick, springy, crunchy white flesh.

Steamed giant river prawn in fresh milk. Yet another way to enjoy Thailand's legendary giant river prawns. The milky sweetness of fresh milk layered on the delicate crustacean sweet umami of the giant river prawn.

Mixed seafood “Tom Yum Soup”. Umami savoury, sourish, spicy hot soup with prawn, squid, fish meat, etc.

Savoey_Thai_Restaurant_Terminal_21_Asok_Bangkok

Deep fried sea bass with fish sauce and mango salsa. Thais have a way to deep fry fresh fish without batter till the outside is crisp golden brown while the white flesh inside is tender and moist. Paired with umami savoury fish sauce and sweet-sour mango salsa to bring out the natural sweetness of sea bass with every mouthful.

Sizzling oyster omelette (menu says Braised Oyster Omelette šŸ¤”). Soft succulent oysters embedded in a crisp, chewy pan cake of savoury eggy batter.

Grilled chicken and sticky rice. Savoury sweet grilled chicken with sweet chewy sticky rice.

Savoey_Thai_Restaurant_Terminal_21_Asok_Bangkok

Thai green curry with pork. Sweetish curry packed full of sweetness and spice and herb flavours with soft fresh pork slices.

Deep fried crab meat. I love this meaty crab dumpling with savoury and natural crustacean sweet flavours. I enjoyed its mix of soft and crisp textures too.

Deep fried pan cake with sea prawns (menu says Moon style deep fried spring roll šŸ¤” ).

Savoey_Thai_Restaurant_Terminal_21_Asok_Bangkok

Refreshing Pandanus Kale smoothie, one of Savoey's signature drinks.

Savoey_Thai_Restaurant_Terminal_21_Asok_Bangkok

Good place for authentic Thai cuisine, especially for families and groups. Prices are reasonable for the quality ingredients, expert cooking, superb location, friendly service, clean and comfortable environment, and great city views. Savoey have promotion sets regularly which make ordering easy and are good value for money too.

Terminal_21_Asoke
