Bangkok Joe’s, a restaurant located in Georgetown for the past nine years, caters to finest Asian cuisine and sees itself as the best Asian restaurant in the DC area.
“What makes this restaurant unique from any other restaurant?” you might ask. “We don’t use the same sauce for each dish. We incorporate different sauces for different dishes. That’s why it tastes so good,” said Jimmy Phomsivilai, Bangkok Joe’s general manager.
If you’re looking to reserve a table over the weekend, keep in mind that Friday and Saturday nights are the busiest days of the week with an average of around 350 to 450 people a night. A reservation is highly recomended.
Once you enter this fabulous restaurant, you’ll be overwhelmed by the fine décor. Bangkok Joe’s was decorated by Jordan Mozar, who also designed the Cheesecake Factory. The space is filled with a welcoming atmosphere. “Three things we are about—atmosphere, friendliness, and good food consistently,” said Phomsivilai.
Unsure of what to order when you arrive? According to Phomsivilai, Pad Thai is the most popular dish for an entrée while dumplings come in first for an appetizer. What’s his favorite dish? “I really like the lobster and pine nut steamed dumplings and I would recommend the Grilled Salmon,” said Phomsiviai, “It’s a fusion of Salmon with lo mien noodles. We are fusion, not just Thai.”
Still not convinced? Bangkok Joe’s is also home to “The best happy hour in D.C.,” according to Phomsivilai. “All beers, drafts, bottles, wines, martinis, and regular drinks are half priced. It’s from 4-7 every night, seven days a week.”
Located at Washington Harbour, Bangkok Joe’s is perfect for fine dining or unwinding. From the friendly staff to the excellent happy hour, Bangkok Joe’s has it all. “Come see us at our happy hour!” said Phomsiviai.
