Mountain View Restaurant
The hours are the reason to keep this one in your back pocket. Nine in the morning until two the next, seven days a week, which covers the breakfast before a 7am longtail pickup and the meal you want after a night on Ao Nang's main strip. Very few kitchens in the area stretch that far in both directions, and most travellers here end up eating at odd times whether they planned to or not.
Beyond that, it's a mid-range, casual Ao Nang restaurant, priced for people who don't want to think too hard about the bill. Ao Nang food generally leans towards the tourist trade, so temper expectations accordingly, but the steady flow of diners here suggests the kitchen holds its standard across a very long working day. I'd aim for mid-afternoon if you want a quiet table. Lunch and dinner both fill up in high season.

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.
