Jay Fai Silom Reviews
Best crab omelette ever & legendary experience
This is an experience of a lifetime. To see the legendary Jay Fai cooking and meeting her. It is the best crab omelette ever. Pure excellence. I see negative reviews and am absolutely baffled. Tip go in the afternoon
Overhyped and Severly Overpriced
If you want to have omlette with crab, there are multiple shops that offer the same qiuality cheaper than this one. Due to some press releases, this shop has come to attention and has gone nuts regarding pricing. A perfect toutist trap. Go there, if
Simple Setting, Outstanding Food
We waited in line for about half an hour, and at first the place looks like a simple roadside eatery. But once the food arrived, it was clear why it’s so famous – absolutely worth it! The flavors are incredible, and the experience feels authentic
Not worth the price or wait in line
Our experience here at Jay Fai was not good. We had to wait in line for over an hour, which usually is a good sign for a restaurant. But once we were seated, service was not good. We ordered Tom Yum soup and the crab omelet. The soup was good, but
Overpriced Michelin street food
Feel it's over rated Michelin. The wait not worth as there were some empty seats and some tourists really take their time to sit and drink after drink while many were still queuing for a place to sit. What I see there were mainly tourists and n
Jay Fai a must do experience.
The service and food exceeded our expectations… The quality of food is outstanding and very fresh… We shared the Crab omelette and it was delicious. This is a must do experience when visiting Bangkok. Jay Fai is still cooking and is a master c
Best crab omlet in Bkk
Her crab omelet and crab dishes at this restaurant are the best. The flavor, freshness, and quality are on point. Prices are pretty reasonable. If you dont want to wait, dont come during rush hours. Bring cash with you and the staff can speak English
Inspiring, woman-owned restaurant
Be there early, walk-ins only. Write your name in their reservation sheet, they are open 9 am to 7 pm, Wednesday to Saturday. Be patient. All dishes are cooked by Jay Fai herself so it would take some time to prepare each meal but she is being assist
Used App to secure a place in line
Lots has been written about this world-famous street food vendor. We used an app from our hotel to secure a spot. We got a text and just showed up and got a table. We paid an extra $25 for the privilege. Now the food. It was very good. We ordered th
Tourist Trap - overpriced and overrated
While the food was good, it was not that good. The location is severly overcrowed and over-priced. You can get the same quality at other places for half the price or less. This is the typical tourist trap.
Worth every penny
Don’t take negative reviews of this place seriously. If you do, you might choose Pizza Company instead, which has a better score.
Extremely Rude and incompetent stuff doesn’t make up for overpriced ok food
Latest personal experience: If you want to be served with street side manner rudeness , arrogance & full of attitude for overcharged prices of 1000 BHT almost $30 USD for some Omelette then go there . Looks like Michelin -1 star has caused the
Decent food. Worst service, they treat customers like garbage.
The first Michelin star street food. Yeah…I should have heeded the warning from my Thai friends about this place and being Thai myself but my foreign wife insisted we come here to “check the box”. I can honestly say this place is not worth the
Jay Fei is worth the hype, just do your research first!
Let's talk about Jay Fei. The haters will say the lines are too long, it's too expensive, the staff is unfriendly, or it's overrated. 1. Line is long because people keep wanting to go, loving it, instagramming it, and talking about it. Its fricking
WORST SERVICE & OVER PRICED.
WORST SERVICE. Long queue. SUPER RUDE STAFF!!! Good Food but NOT WORTH IT. OVER OVER OVER PRICED. Do yourself a favor, eat somewhere else if you want to have a good experience here in Bangkok.
The best crab Omelet in my life!
Super well worth the wait! I read some haters about this and that. Here you have the truth. One of the last places in the world were you get cooked by the chef herself. Excellent crab Omelet and drunken noodles. Highly recommended and when get back
Lives up to its hype.... brilliant
So this is how it goes. Reached there at 11.45am. You need to enter your name on a sheet that is there and note the number next to your name. Ours was 68. On a board they display who had already been seated... in this case it was 23. With a few minut
Did I get over charged??
I went to Jay Fai today and ordered crab omelette and drunken noodles along with a beer. Should have been just over 2000 Baht. I also paid for a lady’s order. She had a single dish with a beer. Checking the prices online her’s was 700 Baht a
Easy to eat
For me, trying the food here was not as difficult as I thought. I met a kind older sister who helped me make a reservation. He helped me until I sat down to eat. Even though he is not very good at the language, he tried to make me as comfortable as p
Generally good food but not worth the hassle (Long review)
Jay Fai runs one of the most celebrated Bangkok food places (News articles and celebrity pics on their walls would attest to it) so we had to try it on our last trip to Bangkok. The bottomline is I have done it for the experience but I would definite
A mixed bag
This place has both good and areas to improve. Good: Food really is good - crab omelette was our favourite, we also had 3 other dishes that were good Areas to improve: The queuing system was quite confusing and a bit overwhelming but we knew it
Interesting
Have never waited 4 hours for food before but new what to expect, it is Thailand and thats how they roll, lol. The King Crab Omolette was fantastic.
Horrible service and completely over rated crab omelette
Horrible service, the employees are so rude and the crab omelettes are awful. Do not waste your time here. People only come to brag on Instagram because this place was on Netflix. And the food is so EXPENSIVE Go to Chairoj instead, if you want a cr
PURE CULINARY ART
The place is very simple, clean, small and authentic thay style. Be there in advance and take your time to understand that...you have to wait! But it is really really worth it!!! Very helpful, friendly and professional staff. She (Jay) is very powerf
Double Standard, Poor Service Staff
the experience at Jay Fai was way too atrocious that I need to leave a review to warn anyone who is thinking of going! staff were arrogant and unfriendly. They showed unfair treatment, different service standard when comes to caucasian guests. the st
Jay Fai is great to watch, but food & experience not worth the hype.
After receiving reccommendtions and reading lots of hype online we decided we would treat ourselves on the last day of our trip. We only queued for 2 hours, which was much less than we were expecting and got a table about 3pm. Most people waited much
Respect lady Jay Fai
expect long queue, my friend reached the place at 7am to queue. 8am started to distribute number and he manage to get No.23. We have waited till around 12pm to get a seat and around 1pm for our food. I have tasted crab meat omelet, stir fried prawn
The long wait and attitude of staff not worth the hype and publicity
As a long time Bangkok resident, experienced travel writer and 35 years of hospitality experience I held high hopes to experience Jai Fai to see what all the hype and publicity was about. Sadly we were so let down, it was my birthday and we arrived

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Jay Fai Silom at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Jay Fai Silom page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Jay Fai Silom to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Jay Fai Silom!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
