Bangkok City has been a fixture on Bird Road since 1987, run as a family operation serving Thai food alongside a full sushi menu. The crispy duck is a signature here, available several ways, including a royal Thai basil preparation with chili paste, bell peppers, and basil leaves that turns the skin sweet, sticky, and crunchy. The massaman curry with beef builds heat slowly, cut by peanuts and sweet coconut curry.
Unlike many Thai restaurants where sushi is an afterthought, it's a real part of the menu here. The I Love Lucy roll — thinly sliced, packed with fried shrimp, crab, and cream cheese, and finished with curled tempura flakes — is a standout among the rolls.
