Smash My Burger Khao Lak
Smash My Burger brings a dedicated smash burger concept to the heart of Khao Lak, sitting along the main Phet Kasem Road in Tambon Khuekkhak. The restaurant has built a strong local reputation, drawing both travellers and residents looking for quality Western comfort food in an area better known for its beaches and seafood dining. Guests can expect a focused menu centred on smash-style burgers, where patties are pressed flat on a hot griddle to create a crispy, caramelised crust. The format is casual and straightforward, making it a solid option for a relaxed lunch or an early evening meal. The mid-range pricing keeps it accessible without feeling like a compromise on quality. The restaurant is open seven days a week from noon until 10pm, which makes it a convenient choice for diners who want a late lunch after a morning at the beach or a satisfying dinner before heading out for the evening. Thursday appears to be the one day off, so it is worth planning accordingly. Those wanting to check current specials or confirm any changes to hours can find updates through the restaurant's Facebook page before visiting.

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.
