About Mezzaluna
Mezzaluna holds two Michelin stars and ranks among Bangkok's most demanding reservations. Chef Ryuki Kawasaki's seasonal seven-course menu merges French classical technique with Japanese precision, served on the 65th floor of State Tower with panoramic city views. At ฿฿฿฿ pricing with consistent recognition from La Liste, OAD Asia, and Tatler, this is the benchmark for European-rooted fine dining in Bangkok.
Should You Book Mezzaluna?
Getting a table at Mezzaluna is genuinely difficult. The restaurant holds two Michelin stars (2024 and 2025), ranks #140 on Opinionated About Dining's Leading Restaurants in Asia (2025), and earned 88 points from La Liste in 2026. At ฿฿฿฿ pricing with a seven-course seasonal menu and panoramic 65th-floor views over Bangkok, demand runs well ahead of supply. If a high-stakes dinner in Bangkok is on your agenda, this is one of the harder seats to secure in the city. Book it first, plan around it second.
The Room
The dining room sits on the 65th floor of State Tower Bangkok on Silom Road, and the spatial experience is a significant part of the proposition. At that height, the city spreads out below in every direction. The scale of the view is genuinely cinematic, and the room uses it: tables are positioned to face outward, the lighting is calibrated for evening, and the overall effect is that you are eating inside something that feels architecturally significant. For a special occasion, engagement dinner, or business dinner where the setting needs to carry weight, few rooms in Bangkok offer this combination of physical drama and serious cooking. If you are choosing between venues partly on atmosphere, this one delivers on that count without the food being the afterthought it sometimes is in high-altitude restaurants.
The Cooking
Chef Ryuki Kawasaki runs a French contemporary kitchen filtered through Japanese sensibility. The format is a seven-course tasting menu that changes with the seasons, drawing on Japanese and French ingredients and applying classical technique from both traditions. According to La Liste's 2026 assessment, the dishes are refined and varied, with strong composition and nuance, and the cooking makes a bigger impression than the views. That is a meaningful statement in a room with those sightlines. Tatler Asia included Mezzaluna in its Leading Restaurants Asia-Pacific 2025 list, citing an impressive culinary experience from Kawasaki. The World of Fine Wine gives the restaurant a three-star wine accreditation, which signals that the beverage program is treated seriously. If wine pairing matters to your group, that credential is worth noting when you book.
The fusion of French and Japanese technique is not a gimmick at this level. It is a disciplined approach that requires deep fluency in both traditions, and at two Michelin stars with consistent placement on the OAD Asia rankings across 2023, 2024, and 2025, Mezzaluna has demonstrated it is not a one-season story. The consistency of recognition over multiple years is a stronger signal than any single award.
Who Should Book This
Mezzaluna works well for a special occasion with two to four people who are happy to commit to a tasting format and spend accordingly at ฿฿฿฿ pricing. It is an excellent choice for an anniversary dinner, a serious business dinner where the setting matters as much as the food, or a first-time visitor to Bangkok who wants the city's fine dining benchmark. It is less suited to groups looking for a la carte flexibility or a shorter, more casual evening. The seven-course format demands time and attention, and the room rewards both. For solo diners, read the FAQ below before booking.
Bangkok Context
Bangkok's top-tier dining scene is dense with serious competition. Sorn offers a completely different experience anchored in Southern Thai cuisine, and Baan Tepa is the address for Thai contemporary cooking in a garden setting. If your preference runs to European cooking, Sühring delivers German cuisine at a comparable level of ambition. Côte by Mauro Colagreco covers Mediterranean and modern cuisine at the same price tier. For modern Indian, Gaa is the reference point. Mezzaluna's distinction within this set is the combination of the physical setting and the Franco-Japanese cooking format, a combination that none of the above replicate. If you are planning a broader Bangkok trip, see our full Bangkok restaurants guide, hotels guide, and bars guide. Thailand has strong fine dining outside Bangkok too: PRU in Phuket and Aeeen in Chiang Mai are worth considering if your itinerary extends beyond the capital. For completeness, AKKEE in Pak Kret and AKKEE Thai Delicacies and Tasting Counter in Nonthaburi offer contrasting Thai formats nearby. Our Bangkok experiences guide and wineries guide cover the broader picture.
For international context: if you have dined at Le Bernardin in New York City or Atomix in New York City, Mezzaluna sits in a comparable register of technical ambition and tasting-menu commitment, with the added variable of a setting that neither of those venues can match.

Booking and Practical Details
Mezzaluna opens Tuesday through Sunday from 6 pm to midnight. It is closed on Sundays. The restaurant operates exclusively in the evening; there is no lunch service. At the ฿฿฿฿ price tier with two Michelin stars and consistent award recognition, demand is high. Contact the venue directly via the lebua hotel to check availability, and plan to book well in advance, particularly for weekends or public holidays. The restaurant is on the 65th floor of State Tower Bangkok at 1055 Silom Road, Bang Rak. The World of Fine Wine three-star accreditation suggests a wine list with meaningful depth; ask about pairing options when you book. Dress code information should be confirmed with the venue directly, but a room at this level and price point will expect smart attire as a baseline.

How It Compares
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Mezzaluna handle dietary restrictions?
The kitchen runs a seven-course set menu that changes with the seasons, so dietary restrictions require advance notice at the time of booking. Given the French-Japanese tasting format and the precision cooking Chef Ryuki Kawasaki is known for, the kitchen is equipped to adapt, but arriving without flagging restrictions in advance is a risk at this level. check the venue's official channels through the lebua hotel to confirm what accommodations are possible for your specific needs.
Is lunch or dinner better at Mezzaluna?
Dinner is the only option. Mezzaluna operates Tuesday through Saturday from 6 pm to midnight and is closed on Sundays; there is no lunch service. If you want a comparable fine dining experience in Bangkok with a lunch format, you will need to look elsewhere in the city.
Is Mezzaluna good for solo dining?
Solo dining is possible but not the format's strongest suit. The seven-course tasting menu at ฿฿฿฿ pricing is a substantial commitment for one, and the experience is structured around the full progression of courses regardless of party size. The 65th-floor setting and counter or table configuration can work for a solo diner who is fully focused on the cooking, but you will pay the same per-head cost as a couple. For solo tasting menu dining, it works if the cooking is the point rather than the occasion.
How far ahead should I book Mezzaluna?
Book at least three to four weeks out, and further in advance for weekends or special dates. Mezzaluna holds two Michelin stars as of 2025 and ranks #140 on Opinionated About Dining's Asia list, which keeps demand consistent. Last-minute availability does occasionally surface, but planning late on a two-star tasting menu at this recognition level is a gamble not worth taking.
What should a first-timer know about Mezzaluna?
You are committing to a seven-course tasting menu and a full evening; this is not a venue for a quick dinner or a flexible order. Chef Ryuki Kawasaki applies Japanese sensibility to French contemporary cooking, so expect precision and restraint rather than bold or theatrical dishes. The 65th-floor panoramic views of Bangkok are part of the experience, but La Liste's 2026 write-up is clear that the cooking itself is what earns the recognition. Budget accordingly at ฿฿฿฿ pricing and arrive knowing the format.

At the ฿฿฿฿ tier in Bangkok, the choice between Mezzaluna and its peers comes down to what kind of experience you are after. Sorn and Baan Tepa are the addresses for serious Thai cooking, and both rank highly in global lists. If your goal is to eat the best Thai food in Bangkok at a formal level, either of those will serve you better than Mezzaluna, which makes no claim to Thai cuisine. Mezzaluna's proposition is specifically French contemporary cooking refracted through Japanese sensibility, and at two Michelin stars with an 88-point La Liste score, it is the strongest case for that format in the city.
Sühring is the clearest parallel: a European tasting menu at the same price tier with comparable critical recognition. Sühring's German culinary identity is more singular, and its villa setting offers a very different atmosphere from Mezzaluna's high-rise drama. Choose Sühring if you prefer an intimate, ground-level dining room; choose Mezzaluna if the spatial spectacle of the 65th floor matters to your occasion. Côte by Mauro Colagreco covers Mediterranean and modern cuisine at the same price point and benefits from a globally recognised name, but Mezzaluna's award trajectory across three consecutive OAD Asia cycles and two Michelin star years argues for its consistency. Gaa is the recommendation if modern Indian cooking is the draw, and it offers a different flavour profile entirely.
For booking difficulty, Mezzaluna and Sorn are the hardest seats in this peer group. If you have flexibility on cuisine and want the easier reservation, Côte by Mauro Colagreco or Baan Tepa are worth trying first. If you have a fixed occasion date and want to guarantee a high-quality dinner, lock in Mezzaluna as early as possible and treat the other options as fallbacks.
