Khun Jeed Yodpak Restaurant
Come here for the food, not the room. This is a plain local kitchen on Thanon Ongsimphai in Phuket Town, the sort of place where the menu is Thai home cooking rather than anything softened for tourists, and the bill stays small. If you've been eating around Patong and wondering where the actual town eats, this is the answer.
The useful thing about it is the hours. The kitchen runs from 10am to 8pm without an afternoon break, so you can eat at 3pm when half of Phuket Town has closed its shutters and you're flagging after a morning of walking the old streets. Lunch is still when it's busiest and liveliest. No booking, no dress code, just turn up.
I'd pair it with a wander around the Sino-Portuguese shophouses nearby, since you're already in the centre and the walk earns you the second dish.

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.
