Located in Tambon Khuekkhak in Phang-nga province, this upscale restaurant sits within easy reach of the resort areas that line this stretch of Thailand's Andaman coast, making it a natural choice for travellers looking for a quality dining experience beyond their hotel. Guests can expect a dining experience that leans toward the upscale end of Khao Lak's restaurant scene, with the kitchen open daily — including weekends — from 11:00am through to 9:00pm. The consistent hours across all seven days of the week make it a reliable option whether visitors are planning a leisurely lunch between beach outings or a relaxed evening meal.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food
Learn the Spice Scale
Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.
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.
