We had a romantic dinner with a wonderful sunset view at the beach. The service was excellent and very friendly. The food was tasty, we enjoyed our Thai dishes. Highly recommended! PS: The white rice was a highlight
Great food, great staff, great seaside view. What else needs to be said? Well the happy hour of buy 1 get 1 free also deserves to be mentioned. The cocktails are well done and quite potent. One thing I’d say is ask carefully about what what you’re ordering. The staff asks if you want sparkling or flat water and you’re served a very nice, but extremely expensive imported water. I think it was about 400 baht a bottle each. The Thai food impressed my Thai friends who are serious foodies, especially Bo Lan style (traditional Thai). Can’t recommend it enough.
We had home dining and eat on beach. Home dining was flawless. Pizza and dish with shripms. Portions are big and you can take one for two. But pizza on beach was a bit so/so… In the end prices look a bit high, but they seem worth if you want to enjoy the moment in comfort.
Good service. Good atmosphere. The best cocktail and good offer buy 1 get 1 happy hours after 5:30. Good to see the beautiful sunset.
Our favorite restaurant in Lanta island. It was in Pimalai resort and spa. They could set up a private dinner on the beach for us. Very pleasant. They provide a classic Thai food. All dishes were delicious. We weren’t disappointed to come here 3 times while we were in Koh Lanta.
Very good restaurant with excellent food service and very nice view on the see. If you like to enjoy a good meal, you can go their with any doubt. It is not a cheap Thai restaurant because the location is private with English's service with extra like real excellent French bread for appetizers. 2900 baths for 2 adults and a child with soft drinks.
Great fancy restaurant located in the pimalai resort. Great service, high quality ingredients. Tried the grouper which was fantastic. Sat on the beach. Romantic dinner.
