Why go, and how to do it well
Fah Muey is a family-run seafood restaurant concealed at the end of an alley in central Hua Hin, opening onto the water in a setting that rewards those willing to seek it out. The entrance is easy to miss — visitors pass through what appears to be a vacant lot before arriving at a genuinely local dining spot that has built a loyal following among both residents and travelers.
The menu leans into traditional Thai coastal cooking, with standout dishes including sweet calamari, deep-fried crispy fish, mussels, and an orange soup that regulars return for. A daily specials board adds variety, and the seaside seating gives meals an unhurried, atmospheric quality. Service is warm and characteristically family-run in style, with long-time regulars describing a welcoming, unpretentious experience from arrival.
The restaurant opens daily from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with an earlier 9:00 AM opening on Thursdays. Because the entrance is genuinely obscure, it helps to check photos in advance before navigating the alley — most visitors agree the effort is well worth it. Arriving mid-afternoon avoids the busiest periods, and the casual, no-frills setting means reservations are generally unnecessary for small groups, though larger parties may want to contact the restaurant ahead of time during peak weekend evenings.

Reviews from Google
I highly recommend Fah Muey restaurant! It’s a little hard to find because it is on the water at the end of a vacant lot (see the picture of the entrance) and it looks like you are walking into a kitchen (which you are). The restaurant looks a little rustic, but it was full of Thai people, which is usually a good sign. We had the cabbage in fish sauce, which is also served with cashew nuts. Cabbage in fish sauce is one of my favorites, but this was a combination I hadn’t had before and it worked well together. We also had the fried sea bass in sweet and sour sauce, which was amazing and cooked perfectly with crunchy skin, but tender meat and the sauce was wonderful! These are the only two dishes I can attest to, but they were both excellent and reasonably priced!
This fantastic local seafood restaurant offers authentic and delectable traditional cooking. I particularly enjoy the Muscle, Orange Soup, and Deep-Fried Crispy Fish. They also have a special daily menu based on the freshest ingredients. I highly recommend visiting, but be prepared for the challenge of finding parking in the nearby area.
The food was authentic and delicious, especially the sweet calamari. The seaside seating added to the experience, and overall it’s one of the better restaurants in the area. However, the service was a bit odd—each server came only once and never returned to check if we needed anything else. The restroom was also not very pleasant.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food
Follow the Crowds
The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.
Ice Is Safe
Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
Use Grab for Delivery
The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
