Why go, and how to do it well

Good Luck is a family-run restaurant on a quiet road in Koh Mook's village, near the start of the viewpoint trail, and one of the best-value meals on the island. The menu is long, with curries, stir-fries, seafood, pad thai, burgers and breakfasts, and the prices are low for an island, with a garlic chicken stir-fry on rice for about ฿80 and prawns with chili paste for about ฿170.

It opens 08:00–22:00, and reviewers keep coming back for the fresh food and the women who run it, who are a good source of island advice. Try the prawn cakes, the cashew nut curry and the mango sticky rice, and note that it closes some days, so have a backup.

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.
