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.

Why go, and how to do it well
Italian cooking on Samui usually means a pizza oven and a shrug, so this Bo Put kitchen stands out for taking the food seriously. Fresh pasta with sauces that taste made rather than poured, a Caesar salad with barbecued broccoli that people keep singling out, salmon, steak. Portions are judged well and the pacing between courses is handled properly, which is rarer than it should be. Plenty of people eat here two or three times in a single week's vacation, and that tells you more than any single glowing write-up.
There's an upstairs terrace if you'd rather sit in the open air, and the room downstairs leans polished without being stiff. Wine and cocktails will push the bill up quickly, so if you're watching what you spend, stick to the food and you'll do fine.
Be warned that the front-of-house team can be pushy at the menu podium outside. More than one diner has mentioned a server hovering while they read. If you just want a minute to decide, say so plainly and they'll back off.

Reviews from Google
I had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The portions were just right, and you could tell a lot of care went into the preparation. The service was outstanding as well. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the evening. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot for a relaxing dinner. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal and warm hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Now my favorite in Chaweng. I like Day and Night but this is better. The Caeser salad with BBQ broccoli was so good. The salmon was even better. Then the desert. Phew. Service attentive but not intrusive. Pacing of food perfect. Hard to find in Asia. I came back. As good or better. Had steak and drinks. Phew very good Price reasonable for quality and quantity. Bill big because I order drinks and lots of wine.
What a lovely place! The food is amazing and the staff is very attentive. We’ve eaten here 3 times already and the food has been delicious every time. Highly recommend!

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.
