Ganesh is brought to you from the team behind Bodega Ramen. As Obs locals themselves, they have taken over the institution that is Cafe Ganesh in Observatory now Ganesh. It remains a space synonymous with crayfish samoosas, late-night conversations, live music, sharing of quarts and a meeting space for friends, locals, artists, students and activists. The building has been given a facelift and the restaurant at the back has been turned into a small Thai Street Food restaurant. Embracing Thai Kitsch and the street food flavours and experience the three owners (Ryan, Bryn and Jade) had while travelling Thailand together.

Please note that our tables are booked for 2 hours, if you would like to stay longer please leave us a note when booking.

    Most dishes were tasty but cold centred Samoosas and the mango sticky rice was not the best with hard, tasteless mango & rice wasn’t cooked enough. Service was good.

    A superb revival of a long-time Obs institution! Spectacular food (my favourite is the Som Tam salad) and really delicious cocktails in a vibey, laidback environment. Go go go!!!
