A good cheap eats
Good Thai food served here although the older woman serving is a bit grumpy and you basically are given what you get. I asked for chicken in cashew nuts and garlic rice to which I got only fried rice as a response. Despite that, what I eventually got given was very tasty and the French fries are BRILLIANT! I would also recommend the battered prawns - nice and tasty.
It gets very busy - we went at 5.30 and by 6.30 they were turning people away so if you want to go, I advise going early!
The big banana is hanging at the door, easy to find! The red curry is super delicious? ! ! ! You must eat it! The boss has long hair, but he doesn't talk much

A hidden gem restaurant that I discovered by chance. The Thai food tastes great and the Tom Yum Goong soup is thick and delicious.
Horrible experience
The worlds worst pizza, absolutely disgusting in every way. The service is just as bad, just wanted to argue and refuse to take the pizza away. The burger was also bad, too much bread and not enough meat, the little meat inside however was ok enough to digest. They also forgot our starters, they did this before to us and it''s just plain annoying how they could forget multiple times. They also served our meals 15 minutes apart, I was done while my partner was still waiting for her meal. No napkins, dirty table cloth and sauce bottles need cleaning and changing.

The environment of Tubtim Resort Restaurant is very good, very warm and comfortable. It feels particularly good, the taste is also great, the various delicacies are refreshing, and the prices are relatively affordable.
Delicious and good price but poor service
It is good price and delicious here but they should consider to improve the service and their staff. Staff not active , not quite know what to do. I think they just not get well trained. If the resort thinking on this you will be more popular.
It is a very nice beach here , you can enjoy with playing at the ocean.

This is a very famous beach restaurant in Koh Samui, which is located on the famous Ao Pai Beach. You can sit at the tables and chairs on the beach, enjoy delicious Thai food and appreciate the beautiful sea view. It is really very comfortable and cozy.
Service is average quality
You are sitting on carpets... And it is not easy to have dinner in darkness... But it is close to fire show and you can enjoy nice views... I hope the kitchen is enough clean... The menu is like all other as knew beach restaurant...
And the service is coming a bit late and sometimes not correct orderings...

WONDERFUL!!
We went twice to this magic place, the best location in the entire island! Wonderful menu, the quality/price is absolutely good! We highly recommend this place also for a happy hour!
Koh Samet is a holiday resort with many places to eat and it is very lively at night. This restaurant mainly serves Thai cuisine. We prefer their seafood, mainly curry, which is delicious.

Superb food and great location
This is a hidden gem on a quiet beach! The staff were very friendly. And the food was excellent..as good as it gets! Well worth a visit!
I had my first meal there after arriving on the island. I walked along the coast and chose the food, then went in. It felt good, but nothing amazing. But it was one of the better ones near the hotel. There was nothing special about the food, so I didn't take any photos. Thai food, not cheap! For guests staying here, you should check in.

This is also a beach bar on Koh Samet, in fact, it is located on the famous Bar Beach. Here you can enjoy a very sumptuous Thai dinner and watch the sunset torch show. The dancers' fire dance is very exciting and dazzling.
Excellent food, brilliant atmosphere
Our family of 11 stayed in a local hotel to Baywatch. We spent a lot of time at Baywatch and had great food, lots of beer and many laughs. Nothing was too much for them. We grazed throughout the evening and they were happy to serve whenever we wanted to eat. The food was fantastic, restaurant quality. Well worth the visit if you’re on the island.
