Khao San Road relocates to Charlotte St behind MEC, bigger place with two storeys and high ceiling. The new place has more natural light and can accommodate bigger groups with many long tables. There is a "waiting area with benches" that you don't have to wait outdoor anymore. Upstairs have additional space and it will be a take out / snack bar as per the staff.
We came on Tuesday, one week after the grand opening, and there was no wait. The waitress service was quick, but the kitchen was slow. We waited for 15-20 minutes for the food arrived after placing order
We ordered the signature Bangkok Street Style Pad Thai and Khao Soi with mild spicy. The food was authentic and delicious as before. I could taste the flavour of different spices.
Since the restaurant is bigger and can fit more patrons, I hope the wait won't be as long as before and I will go back more often!
