The 6 Best Places to Get Steak in Ubon Ratchathani
Ubon might not be the first place that comes to mind for steak, but it has some genuinely great spots if you know where to look. From charcoal-grilled ribeyes in the Old Town to picanha cooked by a Danish-Thai chef in a quiet garden, and premium Japanese beef that won't break the bank, there's plenty here to surprise you.
Whether you're celebrating with a perfectly cooked ribeye or just craving a great steak on a weeknight, these are the six restaurants we'd happily recommend, plus a bonus worth the trip.
Observe
Located in Ubon's Old Town, Observe is one of the city's most refined places to enjoy a steak. The chef's charcoal grill delivers perfectly cooked steaks in a range of sizes, each with a delicious smoky flavour.
The restaurant also offers a romantic bar-style dining area, an excellent wine list, and surprisingly good pasta, making it a great choice for date nights or special occasions.
Sincere
One of Ubon's longest-serving steak restaurants, Sincere has built a loyal following through consistently well-cooked steaks and great value. Steak sets start from just 390 THB, making it an accessible option without compromising on quality.
If you're looking for a classic steak dinner that's stood the test of time, Sincere remains a local favourite.
Nabarn
Hidden away in a peaceful garden setting, Nabarn is one of Ubon's best-kept secrets. This relaxed hut-style restaurant has a cool, laid-back atmosphere and is well worth the short 10 minute drive out of town.
The chef, who is half Danish and half Thai, brings genuine expertise to every steak, with the picanha being the cut most regulars recommend. Steaks are fairly priced by the gram, allowing you to choose exactly the size you want.
300grams
300grams is a modern steakhouse offering an excellent selection of premium beef cuts alongside an impressive wine list and quality pasta dishes. With its spacious dining room, it's an ideal choice for families, celebrations, and larger groups.
Whether you're after a perfectly cooked steak or a relaxed evening with friends, 300grams delivers a polished dining experience.
Asado
While not a traditional steakhouse, Asado is one of the best places in Ubon for premium Japanese beef. This yakiniku restaurant lets you choose from a range of high-quality cuts before you grill them at your table.
Steak, rice, and soup sets start from around 390 THB, making it excellent value compared to what you'd pay in Bangkok. Pair your meal with an ice-cold Sapporo beer and the restaurant's excellent dipping sauces for one of the city's best beef dining experiences.
So Rich
So Rich is one of Ubon's most popular restaurants, offering a huge menu of Thai and international dishes alongside a solid selection of steaks. While it's not a dedicated steakhouse, it's a great choice if you're dining with a group where everyone wants something different.
The spacious outdoor setting, professional service, and live music on most evenings make it an easy place to settle in for the night. There's also a well-curated wine list, imported beers, and cocktails, making it just as good for a relaxed dinner as it is for larger celebrations or family gatherings.
Bonus · Sisakhet
Sane (Sisakhet)
While it's not in Ubon Ratchathani, Sane is well worth the 40-minute trip to Sisakhet for anyone who enjoys great international food. This welcoming international restaurant serves everything from wood-fired pizzas and fresh salads to some of the best steaks in the region.
The standout is the Bavette steak, served with potato wedges and salad for just 790 THB, a fantastic meal and one of the best-value steak dishes you'll find anywhere nearby.
For a relaxed day out, hop on the train from Ubon Ratchathani to Sisakhet, then take a quick 5–10 minute Grab ride to the restaurant. It's an easy trip and a great excuse to explore another city while enjoying an excellent meal.
