Isola by Signor Sassi

About Isola by Signor Sassi

Isola by Signor Sassi is the Bangkok outpost of London's Signor Sassi, part of the San Carlo group. It sits on the first floor of Gaysorn Village on Phloen Chit Road, by the Chit Lom junction. The idea is the Italian Riviera in the city, with two dining rooms: a Lemon Room done in bright lemon motifs and a Blue Room with a coastal feel. Reviewers often mention how colourful and pretty the space is.

The menu leans toward southern Italian seafood, handmade pasta and dishes to share. Wongnai members most often recommend the lobster pasta, then the tiramisu, the truffle risotto, fried calamari and mussels with clams (฿739). Grilled salmon is about ฿1,049 and a caprese about ฿632, so expect over ฿1,000 per person. Some reviewers feel the prices are high for what you get.

It suits a dressed-up lunch or dinner date around the Ratchaprasong shopping area, especially if you like a photogenic room. Share a lobster pasta and finish with tiramisu. It is open daily from noon to 10pm, and reviewers say it feels especially festive toward the end of the year.

• Lobster pasta with firm, sweet lobster
• Attentive service
• Fresh seafood and a well-liked tiramisu

Good to be aware of
