The Crystal Grill House
A glasshouse steakhouse on the Chao Phraya
Right on the riverfront boardwalk at Asiatique, The Crystal Grill House looks more like a modern pavilion than a traditional grill restaurant: a low, gleaming glasshouse with views straight onto the Chao Phraya and the city skyline. Step inside and it feels both cosmopolitan and relaxed – high ceilings, plenty of glass, warm lighting and a mix of indoor and terrace seating that keeps the river in view almost everywhere you sit.
The space is designed as a “world of gastronomy and mixology”, but in practice that translates into something very usable: a grown-up dinner spot where you can dress up a little without feeling overdressed, and where the sound of the river and low background music sit comfortably under the flow of conversation. Operated by the team behind Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park, it also ties into the same dining portfolio as Sirimahannop and Siam Tea Room at Asiatique – useful if you like to build an evening across multiple venues.
Charcoal-grilled steaks & seafood
The heart of the kitchen is a charcoal- and wood-fired Josper grill. The menu revolves around prime cuts of beef from Australia and the US alongside seafood, with everything built around the flavour of the grill rather than oversized sauces. Different woods are used to add a subtle smokiness and aroma, so steaks and seafood come to the table with that distinctive charcoal edge.
You’ll find the usual steakhouse favourites – ribeye, striploin, tenderloin, tomahawk – alongside grilled seafood, from whole fish to prawns and shellfish. Sides are classic and comforting (think potatoes, grilled vegetables, sauces in small copper pans), while starters lean into things you’ll want to share: cold cuts, tartares, seafood starters and a few lighter dishes for anyone pacing themselves.
Desserts follow the international steakhouse playbook – rich chocolate, citrus, ice creams, things you’ll want to split at the end of the meal – and there’s a coffee and digestif offering that makes it tempting to sit a bit longer by the river rather than moving on immediately.
When The Crystal Grill House works best
The Crystal Grill House is strongest when you treat it as your main event for the night rather than a quick bite:
Date nights & anniversaries – especially if you can time it for sunset or book one of the private domes.
Small celebrations – birthdays, family visits, pre- or post-wedding gatherings, anything that calls for steaks, seafood and a few bottles of wine.
Smart-casual business dinners – where you want somewhere with atmosphere, good meat and the right level of service, but no white-tablecloth formality.
Because it sits right on the Asiatique boardwalk, it also plugs neatly into longer evenings: you could start with an early drink on Sirimahannop, move here for dinner, then wander the market afterwards or take a river taxi back towards Sathorn.
Mr. Bangkok Fazit
The Crystal Grill House brings a distinctly modern steakhouse energy to the river. The glasshouse architecture, the focus on Josper-grilled meat and seafood and the smart-casual dress code make it feel more like a cosmopolitan city restaurant that just happens to sit on the Chao Phraya – rather than a classic hotel dining room.
If you’re in the mood for a proper steak or seafood dinner by the river, with good drinks and a setting that feels special but not stiff, this is one of the most reliable options at Asiatique – and a natural pairing with Sirimahannop for a full, riverfront evening.
