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.

What Our Guests Say
Katie planned an AMAZING honeymoon to Thailand for us and it was more than we could have every asked for. During the initial planning phase, my fiance and I knew we wanted to get the full Thailand experience, but really didn’t know what we wanted to see, where we wanted to stay, or what kinds of excursions we wanted to do. Katie listened to our ideas, likes / dislikes, and asked questions about our budget. She really tailored our honeymoon to fit our desire to experience the culture of Thailand … while still relaxing and being “on vacation.”
The actual trip itself went off without a hitch, thanks for the detailed communication between the app and our trip concierge, Rahul. Having a dedicated guide and driver for each leg of the trip gave us the “hand holding” that we wanted for our honeymoon – just being able to relax and enjoy without worrying about the logistics. Also, the fact that everything was private made it that much better – we could really appreciate the romantic honeymoon and spend time with each other, without any distractions.
All of our accommodations were top tier … without the top tier price. One of my biggest fears when traveling is that a hotel is not as great as advertised, or is in a shady area, etc. But I totally trusted Katie’s knowledge and experience and never once had those worries on this trip. I love how Katie was able to find us luxurious hotels that fit within our budget. Every hotel knew it was our honeymoon, thanks to Enchanting Travels, and provided a little something special at welcome.
I highly recommend Enchanting Travels (and Katie!) and 100% would book another vacation again with them. I am usually a “DIY” type of traveler, but this trip now has me spoiled.

We just came back from Vietnam, Cambodia,Laos,and Thailand. From the time we first called and spoke to Kate who helped us set up our itinerary,to the time we got to all our stops,we were met by guides and drivers who were all wonderful. Knowing we had a concierge that we could call at anytime this trip was 45 days from Feb 6- March 20. This trip was a trip of a lifetime and very grateful that we found Enchanting Tours. I recommend them highly. Ed Pino Liz Baum

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.
