Where in Bangkok is Ojo Bangkok located?

Ojo Bangkok is on the 76th floor of King Power Mahanakhon Tower in Bangkok. It’s part of The Standard Bangkok Mahanakhon and easy to reach by BTS Skytrain (Chong Nonsi Station). Nearby attractions include the Mahanakhon SkyWalk, Sky Beach, and the luxury ICONSIAM shopping mall across the river.

Architecture & Design

Ojo’s stunning interior was designed by Ou Baholyodhin, inspired by ancient Mexican cultures and the vibrant colors of Central America. Gold and jewel tones stand out, mixed with pleated mirrors, geometric shapes, and hidden eye symbols. The highlight is a sparkling crystal bar shaped like a tiara. With floor-to-ceiling windows and Bangkok’s highest outdoor terrace, the atmosphere feels magical—part ancient mystery, part futuristic glam.

Ambiance & Atmosphere

The atmosphere at Ojo is lively but relaxed. Whether you’re sipping cocktails at the crystal bar, relaxing on the terrace, or dining by the large windows, the vibe is festive, romantic, and elegant. Guests include couples on dates and groups celebrating, all enjoying great music and stunning views of Bangkok.

Hospitality

Expect excellent service that fits the high setting. The staff are friendly, professional, and attentive, even offering scarves if guests feel cold. They speak English well and pay close attention to details—from greeting you at the door to giving personalized recommendations.

Type of kitchen at Ojo Bangkok

Ojo serves upscale Mexican cuisine that blends tradition with innovation. Authentic flavors, fresh Mexican and local Thai ingredients, and modern techniques come together to break Mexican food stereotypes. Expect colorful dishes inspired by Mexico’s coastal cultures, with a creative twist.

Chef Francisco Paco Ruano

Ojo is led by famous Chef Francisco Paco Ruano, known for Guadalajara’s Alcalde Restaurant (ranked No. 51 on the World’s Best Restaurants list). Chef Paco combines traditional Mexican methods with modern creativity. He is supported by Chef Alonso, who trained at Alcalde and brings his passion for Mexican ingredients and cooking to Southeast Asia.

Chef de Cuisine Alonso

With experience in Mexico’s top kitchens, Chef Alonso now raises Bangkok’s dining scene, offering fresh, authentic flavors at Ojo while breaking traditions.

Food

Ojo Bangkok offers a creative blend of traditional and modern Mexican dishes. From the raw section, highlights include Kaviari Osciètre caviar with flour tortillitas, scallop aguachile, and kampachi ceviche. Cold starters feature the famous Ojo Guacamole topped with crab and ikura salsa. Warm starters like bone marrow with tortillas and beef birria tamal offer rich flavors. Main dishes include crispy suckling pig with pistachio mole, slow-cooked lamb barbacoa, and Veracruzana lobster with olives, almonds, and guindillas. All mains come with refried beans and handmade tortillas.

Desserts at Ojo are just as impressive, mixing Mexican classics with a modern twist. Choices include Arroz Con Leche with vanilla rice and cinnamon ice cream, Choco Flan with chocolate cake and milk ice cream, and Calabaza en Dulce—a spiced pumpkin with mascarpone cream and caviar. The lunch set menu offers a simple way to enjoy Ojo’s best, featuring dishes like pescado a la talla and lamb barbacoa, plus optional desserts like chamoy sorbet. Even the snack menu shines with fun options like coconut ceviche and wagyu beef tartare. Ojo Bangkok turns Mexican cuisine into fine dining art.

Drinks

At Ojo Bangkok, the drinks menu is as impressive as the food. Cocktails celebrate agave and Mexican creativity, with unique drinks like the Mexpresso Martini (tequila reposado, cold brew coffee liqueur, parmesan) and the spicy-sweet Ojo Margarita (tequila, Cointreau, jalapeño, bubbles). For something fresh, try the Mex & Tonic (mezcal, banana, Indian tonic) or the bold Pendejo (mezcal, Campari, lime, passion fruit). Classic Mexican drinks like Michelada, Paloma, and Tommy’s Margarita are expertly made. Wine lovers can choose from a stylish list featuring boutique, sustainable wineries worldwide. The spirits menu offers a wide range of tequilas, mezcals, and fine champagnes. Whether you want a crafted cocktail, crisp wine, or agave adventure, Ojo delivers an unforgettable drinking experience.

Ojo also serves fresh juices, soft drinks, and specialty waters—perfect for a light, refreshing drink while enjoying Bangkok’s skyline.

What did we order at Ojo Bangkok?

We started our Mexican culinary journey at Ojo with a masterful trio of appetizers. First was a tomato salad—a work of art with Chiang Mai tomato varieties, edible flowers like zucchini and crocus blooms, and spicy fermented chili mayo. Fresh, vibrant, and beautifully plated!

Next was a light, fresh dish: raw tuna with kalamata olive emulsion, thinly sliced radish, and onion—zesty and delicious. Then came the star: Ojo Guacamole, topped with crab meat, crispy salmon eggs, shrimp oil, and fresh herbs like dill and cilantro. Served with crunchy tostadas, it was addictive. Personal note to Chef Francisco: where can we order gallons of that guacamole and roasted salsa? You’ve created a craving!

As if three appetizers weren’t enough, two warm ones followed. The roasted bone marrow lived up to the hype: crispy toasted rice powder, rich marrow to spread on warm tortillas, and spicy roasted salsa for a perfect bite. Our favorite? Roasted baby corn covered in grated pecorino, jalapeño mayo, and crumbled macadamia nuts.

For our mains, we shared both land and sea. I ordered “Uno Carnitas e uno Pescado por favor,” which made our Thai server smile. I had a glass of Koehler Ruprecht Kabinett Tröcken white wine, and Ilonka chose a full-bodied red. The grilled fish came first—perfectly cooked with avocado, cucumber, chili, and cilantro. The highlight was Ilonka’s Birria—a big slow-cooked short rib in rich Jalisco Adobo sauce, with sticky rice and fresh tortillas. I was a bit jealous, but Ilonka kindly shared every bite. Si, cara senorita!

After finishing our plates, dessert was a well-earned treat. The Arroz Con Leche—creamy vanilla rice pudding with cinnamon ice cream and soy milk shavings—was delightful. But the Guava Tres Leches stole the show: sponge cake bursting with elderflower, guava, and raspberry flavors.

To end our first night in Bangkok as a married couple, we celebrated with cocktails. Ilonka chose the “This Isn’t Piña Colada”—because nothing says vacation like it—while I enjoyed a classic Negroni, inspired by Campari Thailand, who kindly sent us wedding gifts during our stay at Villa Chi in Koh Samui. Thanks, Campari Thailand!

From start to finish, our evening at Ojo was a dream: exceptional food, world-class service, and memories that will stay with us forever.
