Why go, and how to do it well
Blue Sea Lanta, listed on Google as Thai Malay, is a family-run restaurant on the main street of Sala Dan, the village by the pier at the north end of Koh Lanta. It cooks Thai and Malay food, with a few Western plates for anyone who wants them. The owners point to their noodle soup, and reviewers come back for the wok dishes, the fair portions and staff who make it feel like eating in someone's home kitchen.
Prices are low. One reviewer paid about $2 for a Malay breakfast, there are vegetarian dishes and outdoor seats, and the restaurant serves no alcohol. Google lists it open every day from 11am to 10pm, though several reviewers came for breakfast, so it may open earlier. I'd skip the deep-fried dishes, which one reviewer found oily, and order the noodles or something from the wok.

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.
