Baia Bangkok brings Italian dining and nightlife together on Sukhumvit Soi 11
Baia, a new Italian restaurant and dining club, opened in October 2025 in the heart of Bangkok’s vibrant Sukhumvit Soi 11, introducing a concept where refined Italian cuisine seamlessly transforms into an energetic nightlife experience.
The 130-seat venue, featuring both indoor dining and terrace seating, offers guests an elevated culinary journey that evolves as the evening progresses. What begins as an elegant Italian dinner naturally shifts into a lively celebration, with lights dimming, music rising, and the restaurant transforming into a true club atmosphere.
A dinner-to-club experience
Baia’s unique positioning bridges the gap between Bangkok’s dining and nightlife scenes. Guests arrive for aperitivo and refined Italian cuisine, then stay as the venue comes alive with curated DJ sets, immersive lighting, and late-night rhythms. The transformation is designed to feel seamless—a natural progression from relaxation to celebration within the same space.
The concept invites guests to come for the food and stay for the party, with every evening designed as a celebration. The venue features an impressive Void sound system, stylish dining spaces, and a layout specifically designed to entertain. Resident DJs set the tone throughout the evening, complemented by live performers and guest DJs, creating memorable nights that extend well past dinner service.
Michelin-trained chef brings modern Italian cuisine
Leading Baia’s kitchen is Chef Konstantinos Papadimitriou (Chef Kostas), who brings more than 14 years of experience across French, Italian, Greek, and Asian cuisines, including time in Michelin-starred restaurants. Trained in the discipline of fine dining, Chef Kostas developed a philosophy built on precision, creativity, and respect for ingredients.
At Baia, he channels this expertise into Italian cuisine that celebrates regional traditions with a contemporary touch. The menu emphasises fresh pasta, seasonal produce, and meticulous craftsmanship—authentic in spirit yet elevated with refinement. His approach focuses on traditional Italian flavours meeting modern flair, with the kitchen emphasising fresh ingredients, high-quality products, and handmade dishes prepared with care and creativity.
The culinary concept draws inspiration from Italy’s coastal cuisine, rooted in simplicity and elevated by the finest ingredients. Each dish serves as a tribute to la dolce vita, with a spirit of sharing and conviviality at the core. Guests can expect generous plates designed for communal dining, reflecting the Italian tradition of gathering around the table.
Signature cocktails and Italian vibe
Beyond the kitchen, Baia’s bar program plays an integral role in the evening’s progression. The bar offers signature cocktails crafted with premium spirits, where Italian flavours collide with inventive mixology. Vibrant cocktails complement the menu and help set the rhythm as the venue transitions from dinner to nightlife.
The atmosphere blends Italian charm with the electric energy of Bangkok’s nightlife district. Curated music, immersive lighting, and surprise performances create an environment where guests can dance, sip, or unwind—all within the same sophisticated setting.
Positioning for Bangkok’s cosmopolitan scene
Baia positions itself as a chic Italian destination for elegant, cosmopolitan guests who come to savour exceptional cuisine, connect with friends, and celebrate in an iconic Sukhumvit setting.
In 16 Sukhumvit Soi 11, Baia occupies a prime position in one of Bangkok’s most recognisable nightlife and dining corridors, making it easily accessible for both residents and visitors seeking an elevated Italian experience.
The venue’s design reflects a modern Italian trattoria aesthetic, which consists of warm hospitality combined with chic, contemporary style. The 130-seat capacity accommodates both intimate dinners and larger gatherings, with indoor and terrace options that offer flexibility for different occasions.
Making every evening unforgettable
Baia’s all-encompassing approach, from aperitivo to late at night, creates an experience that extends beyond traditional restaurant boundaries. The venue invites guests to indulge in refined Italian cuisine, sip signature cocktails, and immerse themselves in a festive atmosphere that seamlessly transitions throughout the evening.
By blending exceptional food with vibrant entertainment, Baia offers Bangkok diners something distinct: a destination where the quality of the cuisine matches the energy of the nightlife, all under one roof.
