SIAM Phuket - Seafood Restaurant
Situated on Thaweewong Road in the heart of Patong, this halal-certified seafood and Thai restaurant has earned a strong following among tourists and locals alike for its honest, unfussy approach to fresh coastal cooking. The standout feature is its à la carte ordering process, where diners select and weigh their seafood before it is prepared — a market-style format that adds transparency and a hands-on quality to the meal. Mid-range pricing makes it a practical choice for travellers who want quality seafood without the premium typically attached to beachfront dining in Phuket. The atmosphere is relaxed and casual, well suited to the laid-back character of Patong. Shellfish and fresh fish feature prominently on the menu, and the pineapple fried rice draws consistent praise. Service is a recurring highlight in visitor feedback, with staff noted for being attentive and personable. It is worth noting that the whole fish selection is limited — primarily seabass and tilapia — so those expecting a wide variety of fresh fish may want to adjust expectations accordingly. Good to know: Opening hours are not publicly listed, so confirming current times with your accommodation before visiting is advisable, particularly during shoulder season. Given its steady popularity, arriving early in the evening is a sensible way to avoid longer waits during Phuket's high season. The halal certification makes it a reliable option for Muslim travellers, and casual attire is entirely appropriate.

Visitor Reviews
If you’re looking for a restaurant to scratch your seafood itch in Patong this is it!! The seafood is sold à la carte and you pick out and weigh your seafood before cooking. We decided to order fired garlic sauced lobster, BBQ prawns, seafood fired rice and beef lab. The lab was very fresh and we got it with 2 chilies added. It was spicy but we couldn’t stop eating it. The fried rice helped calm the spice down. The lobster & prawns were so delicious and was cooked perfectly and the addition of garlic made it a 10+ We topped the nice lunch off with mango sticky rice to combat the spice and even that was next level. Going to be dreaming about this restaurant when I go home. Don’t miss out on this gem when you’re here.
We were looking for a seafood restaurant as I was craving light but filling food and I was not disappointed! From the service, beginning to end, to the freshness of the fish and shell fish, we ate well. Shout-out to Hnin and Su! It shows that the whole staff in the restaurant care about the customer experience and the service and food quality, even recommending dishes that fit our palette. Definitely a spot to try if you love seafood and are in Phuket! Shrimp cakes and cheese scallops were phenomenal.
We had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was consistently delicious, the prices were very reasonable, and the atmosphere was great. We enjoyed it so much that we came here every day during our holiday. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made us feel very comfortable. Highly recommended—we will definitely come back!

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.
