Discover the best Phuket restaurant recommendations from our experts.
Thai cuisine is not only diverse and delightful, but also extremely healthy. All dishes include some crunchy vegetables and spices. Being a beach destination, fish and seafood naturally play an important role in Phuket’s kitchens so if you love seafood, this is just the place for you! Be careful not to order spicy dishes – what is mild for Thai people can quickly reduce others to tears! To ensure that you have access to only the best on these glorious Thailand beaches, here are our Phuket restaurant recommendations.
Top Phuket Restaurant Tips from our Experts
Authentic and Economical: Pum Restaurant
204/32 Rajuthit 200 Pi Road, Patong, Phuket
Simple, quick, economical and delicious – it’s no wonder that Pum restaurant on Patong Beach is a roaring success. So much so that there are now branches in France and England! Dig into classic Thai home-style cooking prepared right in front of you. This is also a popular meeting place for locals and visitors.
Mid-range: Thong Dee The Kathu Brasserie
110/25 Bangthong, Kathu, Phuket
At the Thong Dee The Kathu Brasserie, savor delicious Thai, French and Italian meals in a relaxed ambiance with live jazz music for company. The Pad Kee Mao spaghetti with Thai whiskey, seafood and chili is a must-try. Apart from fish and seafood, there are also plenty of vegetarian options and a special menu for children.
High-end: Black Ginger
116 Moo 1 (Slate Hotel), Nai Yang, Phuket
Climb aboard a raft and drift to this charmingly traditional Thai-style restaurant which is set on an island in the middle of a small lake. On the menu are refined Thai dishes prepared with the freshest local ingredients from the kitchen garden by chef Anongrat Meklai. Black Ginger also boasts a wonderful selection on international wines to pair your food with. Together, the ambiance and food offer interesting insights into Thai food and culture.

Enchanting Travels exquisitely prepared our excursion from top-to-bottom based on our initial discussions regarding our desires for our trip. From cities, sites, tours, hotels, & activities, we were immersed in our favorite style of travel: get involved in activities [culinary class, organic farming, yes – and of course care of the elephants], great knowledgeable guides, local food tasting as one priority, and trying different modes of local transport [from car, boat, bicycle, Cyclo-cross, Tuk-Tuk, Long Boat, gondola, canoe, Vespa scooter, and even a bamboo raft]. The hotels were specifically selected for their local style, and the sites were all well represented and included off-the-beaten path historical and natural treasures. The oversight of our trip via the App as well as 24/7 coordinator involvement made it totally hassle-free.

Enchanting Travels and their staff put together a trip of a lifetime. We hadn’t traveled to Asia before and were nervous about what to expect or how to navigate once we were there. We also really didn’t know what we wanted to do other than a few expectations. We went to four countries with multiple hotels, flights and boat excursions. I cannot believe that the 5 week trip went off with out any hitches! Everything was so smooth and effortless. We did not worry about anything the whole time we were there. It was comforting to know that our trip coordinator was there for us if we needed her and she certainly responded quickly if we did have a need or question. The choices for hotels that Enchanting Travels recommended were superb and the guides and driver were knowledgeable and fun. I can not speak more highly of all of their services and plan on using them again for another big trip.

We had a wonderful trip to South East Asia organized by Enchanting Travels. The organization was seamless with no mishaps. Guides were very pleasant and informative and activities and sights seen were incredible. We hope to book another trip with enchanted travel in the future.

I am writing to sing the praises of Anita Sahi at Enchanting Travels who curated THE MOST INCREDIBLE trip to Thailand for us. Anita really took the time to get to know exactly what my husband and I were looking for in this trip and she delivered 100% on what she promised. Anita spent a lot of time putting together options for hotels and excursions. She chose incredible hotels with top-notch services. The local guides/agencies with whom she worked in Thailand took wonderful care of us. Everyone was very professional, fun, prompt, and really wanted us to experience the culture and the excitement of their country. I could not have been happier with every moment of this trip from start to finish and I have Anita to thank for it all! Thank you, Erica Goldberger

Enchanting Travels planned the trip of a lifetime for my husband and I to Thailand and Cambodia. I normally plan my trips on my own and I was a bit hesitant to use a travel company. There is no question that I would use Enchanting Travels again in the future. Everything from the accommodations to the logistics of travel between locations to the tours and tour guides were top notch. We felt secure and relaxed throughout our trip because we knew that the experts at Enchanting Travels were handling our plans. We have made so many amazing memories from all of our wonderful experiences and would not hesitate to use Enchanting Travels again for future destinations.
