Excellent value with superb options available. Every dish was served up perfectly. Service was always attentive and fast, nothing was too much trouble. It was our first time in Bang but everything about it justified the reviews I had read. Highly recommend.

Food was ok, set menu was again ok. The presentation of the menus very poor, looked to be printed on a home computer with poor formatting and alinement so it certainly didn’t come across as a ‘premium experience’. Food was decent (not exceptional) but enjoyable, service was very good, we picked a Melbec wine which we were used to from other restaurants but priced at €168 a bottle was at least 20% more expensive than we’d paid in other restaurants. Gave 4 stars, could’ve been a 3 but not near a 5. We’d maybe go back to give it another try but I wouldn’t be rushing back to book. Not a damming review just expected better
