Why go, and how to do it well

Most places that run two cuisines are quietly better at one of them. Here the Indian and the Thai both hold up, which is why people keep coming back for a curry and then returning days later for Tom Kha. Reviewers point to the pineapple fried rice served inside a fresh pineapple, mutton biryani, chicken with cashew nuts and mushroom soup. If you're vegetarian and after Gujarati cooking specifically, this is the address in Patong worth walking to. The onion pakoda gets praised over and over, and the chai is made properly, though you may want to ask for extra sugar.

The dining area is indoor/outdoor with air conditioning units covering both, which matters more than it sounds when Patong turns oven-hot. Staff get repeat mentions for being attentive without hovering, and the kitchen takes special dietary requests seriously rather than nodding and ignoring them. There's a hotel attached, but diners who've eaten here haven't commented on the rooms, so treat the restaurant as the reason to come.

Reviews from Google

If you’re vegetarian and craving proper Indian, especially Gujarati food, don’t waste time looking elsewhere. This place truly delivers. The onion pakoda (bhaji) is a must — crispy, fresh, and full of flavor. If you are Indian/Gujju chai/tea lover, make sure you order one. It’s made just right and goes perfectly with the snacks. Just ask for extra sugar! The staff are genuinely warm and welcoming, always serving with a smile. That kind of hospitality makes a big difference. Do try the hing aloo gobi with chapati. It’s simple, homestyle food — comforting and satisfying. You may want a little extra salt depending on your taste. Overall, great food, good vibes, and a place I’d happily visit again ❤️

This place is just beautiful for food and atmosphere. We ate Indian curry first time round which was incredible. Led us back to spending our last night in patong having delicious Thai food. Clean, friendly and atmospheric we highly recommend. We also hope so much to be back here and enjoy this food again. 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟 thank you 🙏🏼 (try everything if you do come. It’s worth it!!!)

Everything was tasty. Tried both Indian and Thai menu. Nice service. Good location and fast. We had the Tom Kha and Mutton Briyani tasty. We didn’t start at hotel can’t speak to the rooms.

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.
