Located in the former 1252 Tapas space in Uptown Park, Songkran features chef Jurrajet Hurrpan's take on traditional Thai flavors blended with upscale ingredients and modern plating. Thai angels from the restaurant's namesake festival adorn the walls, giving the space a welcoming atmosphere. Chef Jett, as he's known, is justifiably proud of his signature pad thai. The curries and homemade sausage are also standouts. A recently introduced lunch menu drops the prices, which are correct for the neighborhood and ingredients but might seem high to those used to more casual spots.
