Bangkok restaurant Rojo

We go Bangkok many time & see some crazy things... but nothing like saw at Rojo BBQ restaurant (Sukhumvit Soi 8). When my wife & I were eating... a BIG rat run across the floor and over wife's feet!!! We run away. I'll NEVER go there again!!! Gregoire

Fascinating... two brand new posters, very first post for both, both had exactly the same experience. I don't know about you, but I smell a rat.

Stayed recently at Adelphi Suites (nice place!) and asked about Rojo's at the front desk. One guy said it's okay, but another said something about rats, too! Wasn't clear what he said because of his accent-- but I knew I hear rats! Had good success at the restaurant at Sukhothai hotel (forgot the name), the Andaman in Thonglor, & River Bar Cafe on the river (not far from the King's palace, Wat Ben, etc.).

Happy eats!

OK, I smell a rat also. I'm staying at Adelphi right now and I've eaten at Rojo and thought it was really quite good.

FYI the YEAR OF THE RAT just started on February 8th. Hmmm, do you think there might be a connection????

LOL, Carol! And this is MarcC's first post as well. Rojo must be quite a place to inspire so many posts from trolls!

Maybe a disgruntled former employee??

I'll certainly be on the lookout for those big rats though... lol. We'll be on our way down to breakfast in about a half hour.

Carol, if you see any of the rats, ask if their names are Gregoire, Felicia or Marc.

...and the Bangkok Post was reporting that the young girls were buying up all the underwear with rats - mice - designs on them for good luck!

Wonder if Rojo has mice running around for good luck in the Year of the Mickey Mouse?
