Day & Night Of Phuket

4.7(4,945 reviews)$$$$

Order the spicy dishes here and you'll want to say "little spicy" out loud, because the kitchen doesn't dial the heat down for tourists. That's the first thing to know about this Talat Yai restaurant, and it's a compliment. It's in the Michelin Guide, it's full of locals as well as visitors, and the food that comes up again and again in reviews is the crispy pork belly, the slow-cooked pork stew with eggs, and beef grilled to order. The pork stew in particular gets described as meltingly soft.

There's a European side to the menu too, with pasta and Caesar salad, plus a coconut crème brûlée and a chocolate lava cake that people finish with. Not everything lands equally. A few diners have found the curries salty and the crispy minced meat forgettable. But the cocktails are a genuine reason to come, mojito included, and the room is stylish without being stiff. Staff are warm, though English can be patchy and orders sometimes get muddled, so point at the menu.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Day & Night, which is listed in the Michelin Guide in Phuket. The atmosphere is stylish yet cozy, and the service was attentive and professional throughout the evening. We ordered the Bolognese spaghetti, fettuccine carbonara, Caesar salad, and coconut crème brûlée — and we truly enjoyed all of them. The pasta was perfectly cooked al dente, and the sauces were well-balanced and flavorful. The carbonara was especially creamy and delicious. The Caesar salad was fresh and satisfying. For dessert, the coconut crème brûlée was outstanding. The coconut flavor was beautifully balanced, and the caramelized sugar topping had the perfect crisp texture. Overall, we were very impressed with both the food and the ambiance. Highly recommended for a lovely dinner in Phuket.

Great mojito. The soup with pork and eggs was delicious. Crispy pork belly was also good. Crispy minced meat was ok but would not order a second time. Curry with pork was a bit too salty for me and taste in general was not the best either. Chocolate lava cake was delicious

A real classic in Thailand, and you can tell it’s loved by locals too,not just tourists. The food is good, but if you choose spicy dishes, make sure to ask for “little spicy”, because they can be very hot. I really enjoyed the grilled northern beef, which was flavorful and well cooked. The service could be improved: the staff are kind, but they don’t speak much English, and there was some confusion with a few dishes. Overall still a solid local spot if you know what to order and manage expectations.

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.
