4.5 / 5.0(2,114 reviews)
For dinner, we ordered salty egg squid (must order, I’m craving it for days after eating), bitter melon fried with fish (good), red curry duck (normal), sour and spicy soup (nice) and raw shrimp which I think it has been marinated for a while that the meat is not transparent. For dessert, we ordered fried banana with coconut ice cream. Food was overall amazing and service was good. They helped us to cut open the coconut after drinking so we can scoop out the meat. I would definitely come back. I am doing my research everywhere I go on where it is best to eat, I must say that it’s not clear from the online material how good this restaurant is. This was the best restaurant we have eaten in Koh Samui out of many we tried (which were recommended as well), I would say it is the best in Samui if I had to guess. We tried the fried fish which was a show!! So good! Also the rest of the dishes were amazing. We took a spicy raw mango with calamari and grilled prawns with some spicy dressing. This is a must! We were here tonight we started with the duck rolls and Gung Chub Torid we continued with one main dish Kaow shrimp pad and we took the golden dream for dessert. All the dishes were amazing. The restaurant is full worth it. And the staff is very friendly and kind

Everything was delicious!! My partner said it was the best pad see ew he's ever had. The prawns in the curry were so juicy! It was on the slightly pricier side compared to local restaurants, but worth it! Would come back in a heartbeat. Service was a little slow but the food made up for it.

This Michelin 2025 restaurant was really good, i got here 35 min before close and they took care of me and recommended the duck curry and i was very happy with it. simple and clean and exactly what hits the spot. The pricing was very good considering the quality. The staff were very sweet and welcoming. the open seating area is open and great incase you like to sit outside.
