The food at this restaurant was very good. We had the fish of the day steamed, and it was so fresh and firm, probably the best fish we’ve had in Koh Lanta but we finished too fast that we didn’t take a photo. The beef skewers were also spot on, perfectly tender. The gravy noodles were another standout dish. Their cocktails and desserts were underrated. The fried banana is highly recommend! Last but not least, the service is spot-on. Everyone was so helpful and active. Definitely need to come back!

We stopped here for breakfast on our way to the National Park for the day and enjoyed our meal. The Acia bowl was fantastic as was the fried egg, bacon and avocado mash Tea pot served and they are able to accommodate dietary restrictions with lots of different milk options.

Great Breakfast Spot! We had a fantastic breakfast here! The vegetarian breakfast plates with smoked salmon were fresh and flavorful—perfectly cooked eggs, crispy hash browns, avocado, toast, grilled tomatoes, mushrooms, and a fresh salad. The yogurt bowl with fruit and granola was a delicious and refreshing addition. Great coffee, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended!
