The story
KodTalay Seafood Buffet, perched on the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok’s Sathon district, has earned a near-perfect 4.9-star rating for its unapologetically generous all-you-can-eat spread. For just 599 baht, diners dig into a lineup that includes live blue crab, river prawns, flathead lobster, fresh oysters, mixed sashimi, and a peeled raw blue crab that’s as decadent as it sounds. Creator BANKII calls it “คุ้มโคตรๆ”—an incredible deal—and notes there’s no time limit, with live seafood tanks at every table keeping the catch impossibly fresh.
The buffet goes beyond raw bar staples. Grilled spanner crab, steamed crabs with roe and vermicelli, Cantonese-style steamed sea bass, and even stewed pork noodles round out the selection. The setting—outdoor seating with river views, casual and family-friendly—matches the lively, no-reservations energy. Whether you’re here for the grilled beef or the horseshoe crab, KodTalay delivers a seafood feast that feels both endless and unhurried, right on the water.

Dishes mentioned
Live Blue Crab
These live blue crabs are incredibly fresh. I grill them alive, and the meat is firm and sweet. I don't even need dip — it's perfect plain. The crab leg meat comes off easily and is super sweet.
Live River Prawn
These giant river prawns are huge and grilled to perfection. The head is full of creamy fat — this is the level of creaminess prawn fat should have. It's so creamy and exquisite, especially with the green seafood dip.
Flathead Lobster
Fresh flathead lobster is very rare to come by. It's in season now, so be quick. The meat is juicy and sweet. I peel it easily — the shell comes right off. It's so worth it.
Mud Crab
This mud crab is gigantic and grilled alive. It's filled with roe and tomalley — self-explanatory. The meat is very juicy and every bit of it is sweet.
Fresh Oyster
They say they offer live oysters here. They're freshly shucked. I drizzle them with seafood dip and chili paste, then add fried shallots. It's excellent. Eating live seafood is a hundred times better than fresh.
