I've been going regularly to this mall for the last 2 years, as I usually stay in this area when in BKK. It's much smaller than its newer neighbor Central Plaza Rama 9 down the road, but for me that's a good thing.

It has all the usual offerings, such as restaurants (many are Japanese-themed), Cineplex cinema, bowling alley, karaoke, Tops supermarket, WE fitness club (formerly California Wow), plus something you won't find in any shopping center in Bangkok: at the stores facing Ratchadapisek Rd you can sit outside and enjoy your coffee or dinner with a smoke. If you like a cigar like I do, then this makes it a winner.

As others have said, it's next to the Thai Cultural Center MRT stop. Or if you want to be more adventurous, hop on any baht bus from Asoke going north on Ratchadapisek. Don't take taxi from 4 to 7pm, as the traffic is horrendous even by BKK standards.

We visited this Mall to see the 'Art in Paradise' exhibition. The exhibition was absolutely amazing! The shopping mall was big & clean, with lots of eating places and a huge cinema complex. They have market style stalls which are good value, maybe not as many shops as some malls but plenty of beauty outlets!
