If you have been to Bangkok, Mango Tree would probably ring a bell in your head. Myself, I find the name extremely familiar and that I have eaten it somewhere before. And I finally remembered. Mango Tree has an outlet at Suvarnabhumi Airport and that is also the very first time I stepped into Mango Tree! It was a memorable meal as my friends and I were digging our last coins to make payment for the bill but that is not why it was memorable. It was the delicious authentic Thai taste from the dishes that makes it memorable.
Today, I’m going to talk about another Mango Tree outlet called Mango Tree Signature at Charoenkrung. It is located at O.P Garden and upon stepping into the restaurant, I felt as if I entered a resort! For now, let the pictures do the talking.
The draw of the restaurant is its alfresco seating / dining where you totally feel as if you are at a beach resort. Thank goodness for the fans planted at various locations to keep the restaurant cool and ventilated.
A small indoor dining area with ceiling fans. This is the only place where you can take nice pictures because of the lighting.
If you want an air-conditioned dining area for a big group, they are able to open up the second level, mainly for private functions.
Alright, enough of the restaurant, now time for some food!
Thai Shrimp Chips [Complimentary] that are so addictive! It is flavourful yet so crispy. Once you pop, you can’t stop.
Pad Thai with Shrimps [230฿++]. It is flavourful with tamarind sauce and definitely tastes authentic. Be sure to eat this dish while it’s hot, else the noodles will start to turn hard and then it would be harder to swallow. The shrimps served are fresh too!
Red Curry with BBQ Duck in Pineapple Boat [340฿++]. The roasted bbq duck is so tender and soft. Cooked with the red curry, the duck is soaked in the goodness of the delicious curry. The pineapple too makes the dish light, fresh and juicy. Perfect to go with rice!
Mango Sticky Rice [100฿++]. It’s always a good idea to end the beautiful dinner with Thailand’s most famous dessert. That is if you still have stomach for the sticky rice, which I bet you will have.
Sexy Mango [240฿++]. Inside this drink is Strawberry syrup, Peach syrup, Lemon juice, Fresh Mango and Rum. This is a signature and special cocktail only available at this branch. I love how refreshing this is with the bits of mango in it.
Mango Tree Signature is located inside O.P Garden. Once you see this building, you are safe!

Resort-like dining experience. Delicious food served here.
– Dislike
On days where the weather is extremely hot, it might be humid when you dine. Do request for more fans if you need.
= Conclusion
Mango Tree guarantees authentic Thai food flavours and indeed they serve quality food here. Bundled with a resort-like alfresco dining concept, it is romantic especially during the night. Come visit if you want a different dining experience.
