The best Thai food on earth!We got addicted to their curries and everything else was awesome.Must go in Phi Phi.Has two locations very close to each other, this one is bigger and feels friendlier.
- Simple DiscoveriesJune 17, 2016Try the massaman curry. It's clearly one of their most popular dishes & for good reason. We also enjoyed the pineapple fried rice. Come hungry - portions are generous.
Sonia QureshyOctober 8, 2017100% halal.Loved the food!The only place I ate while on the island for 3 days.Huge portions so be sure to build up an appetite before heading there.Plus the owner is super sweet-owns a guesthouse too.
Jenna McgregorMay 30, 2016We ate here 3 days in a row. It was just so damn good. Massaman curry, pad Thai and papaya salad were the best I had in Thailand and good price for phi phi. Fruit shakes were yummy too!
- Natalia BarbosaMay 1, 2016For me the best Pad thai I ever had!! It was delicious!!The massaman curry was great as well!The walls and covered with messages from all around the world and the AC is a plus!! Best place in Phi Phi!
Lucie PustovaMarch 22, 2017Authentic Thai food. Be very cautious about spice. Papaya salad will burn your mouth. Absolutely delicious though, if your taste buds can keep up.
Rafael MoretNovember 28, 2014Their Massaman curry is still the best dish I had in the island! RECOMMENDED! It is not by chance that they have hundreds of great reviews hanging in the walls of the restautant. Worth it the visit!
KristenApril 7, 2017This is my favorite restaurant on the island. Highly recommend the curry, both the massaman and yellow curry are delicious. Spring rolls are good too.
Ben PrewettJune 5, 2015Good Thai food with lots of options, reasonable price and decent service. The owners have been here for decades and know everything about Phi Phi. Worth a visit for sure!
Diogo SabidoJanuary 31, 2015Simple place with excellent food. Very good value for money. Food here is not just spice but is full flavoured. Se asked for Fried Basil with chilli and it was great.
Brian GaldinoFebruary 13, 2012By far the best Thai food on phi phi - high quality fresh ingredients and very generous portions for 110 baht. My gai ka prow was the best I've had on my current (5th) month long trip to Thailand.- Richard GulyasNovember 18, 2016You will be suprised how great food is. Restaurant is not fancy and i love it. Massaman curry was fabulous. Great value for your money. Curry 120 baht.
Ricky DiagheSeptember 2, 2016Heard this was the best Massaman curry on the island. I had it with tofu, defiantly didn't disappoint. + coconut shake ✨✨✨👌🏾
Katarzyna WojnickaJanuary 18, 2018Maasam curry is amazing, rice in pineapple is great and spring rolls are perfect as a starter.
Bartek G.June 21, 2016Good food, mix Thai food with Indian and Israel food. Not cheap, but not so expensive. Really friendly and helpfull cook / owner? If you order curry, you should consider ordering Naan (Indian food).
Paul KuhnDecember 21, 2014Order everything and ask for "Thai spicy" if you want to experience sweating from your cheeks. Highlights were papaya, massaman, and Thai basil with extra chiles.- Sophia TAugust 30, 2012I second all the previous comments. Massaman & green curry are the best on the island. Ask for on rice for 1 person, or the main curry with side rice for 2 people.
Jason SuMarch 1, 2018Massaman curry does not disappoint. Large portions, reasonable prices. “Spicy” was not that spicy at all.
Peter JohnsonDecember 30, 2013Friendly staff, solid WiFi and quite simply the best food you will eat on Phi Phi. You need to try this place. Ask the staff for their tips.
Thomas SimoesNovember 28, 2017The best naan I've ever had! The chicken massala is amazing as well! Tje food in phi phi by far!
Al StewartDecember 22, 2010Opens around 4pm. Dishes come "on rice" (small) or with rice separate (large) "On rice" is big enough to satisfy most appetites. The Masaman curry is one of the best in Thailand. Friendly service too.
Pauly GApril 28, 2015After eating all over Thailand, the fried basil and chili with chicken and massaman curry here are two of my favorites!
Burcu KoçApril 22, 2016Panang cury is awesome strongly recommended. Spring roll is moderate, garlic and shrimp roll is very good
The cats in the fridge are just trying to escape the heat. And the owner is an ex Thai boxer turned chef! Amazing staff, they remember you no matter how busy they are.- Pauly GApril 27, 2015No eggplant in this green curry but if you ask for it "Thai spicy" it's probably the best thing you will eat on PP!
Jessie DurrettJune 10, 2018Fried veggies in coconut milk and mango sticky rice were particularly good. Very friendly. Huge menu. Quick service.
Alexandre NoguchiJune 7, 2016Massaman curry is great! Fried vegetables were very good too! Also was good the spin rolls.
Amazing owner, remembered me when I came back to Phi Phi two years later. Brilliant food cannot be beaten!- Shantanu MukherjeeNovember 26, 2018Great food .. default version of Penang and papaya salad is slightly spicy but tasty ..
Marcelo LemosNovember 8, 2016Good food for good prices. Staff is very kind and the recipes are well-served.
Guillermo ScagnetMay 8, 2011Best place to eat in Phi Phi. Pad Thai and Green Curry unbeatables. But accept the rules: more than 8 cats resting on tables, dirty walls, not a recommendable toilet but the warmest owners ever.- Ivari KJanuary 13, 2017Green curry was delicious. The shakes had way too much sugar. Aircon also helpful
Michaela WatkinsonMay 5, 2017Huge portions, couldnt finish it all. Really accommodating to vegetarians.
Boris GougeonDecember 3, 2015Best Thai in PP! Great portions and very tasty. I heard it's better than papaya 2.
Gio CorsiJanuary 21, 2012Great food, great prices. Best Penang curry I've had in Thailand, ask for it 100% spicy!
Dominika SzymańskaJanuary 2, 2014Masaman curry - sause good but the beef was undercooked, fried rice with beef-same story. The shakes were with additional sugar-way too sweet.For the same price other places serve better food.
Lucky OetamaJanuary 1, 2013The Prawn Tom Yum is pretty good but spicy, but I do love spicy Thai food :9
