Tai Uan Seafood — Restaurant in Chon Buri Province

The best food here are the uncooked ones, fresh squid sashimi was pronounced dead right in front of you. The three fishes selection sashimi of the day were fine, you can tell that they are not so hygiene but it's good enough to take some risk.

The cooked dishes were all terrible, Gaeng Som with shrimp and acacia omelette (แกงส้มไข่ชะอมกุ้ง) was super sweet and came in a very tiny portion. The staff told us that they only have a "big size" of flathead lobster today, so we ordered it 1 kg deep fried with garlic (กั้งกระดานทอดกระเทียม). Their definition of "big" apparently came from a different dictionary as ours, as we got 12 halves of approximately 3" flathead lobster in a cold garlic sauce. Seafood fried rice came in also a small portion, the rice was mushy. The most important thing is that ALL food were already cold when they arrived at the table and the services were super slow.

I have zero clue on why this restaurant is so hype in social media platforms. The fresh sashimi can be found anywhere else in the area and it's totally not worth...

Dropped by this beachside restaurant for a very late lunch around 3–4 PM, and I have to say, they manage the off-peak hours impressively well. Plenty of staff, attentive service, and the whole place felt organized without being overbearing. The seaside location is a win—breezy, relaxing, and surprisingly comfortable despite the afternoon heat.

As for the food, it was… fine. Not bad, not mind-blowing—just solid, middle-of-the-road fare. The standout for me was the crab egg chili paste (nam prik kai poo)—packed with flavor, beautifully balanced, and clearly the star of the meal. On the other hand, the curry crab was overwhelmingly salty, and the seafood platter, while generous, didn’t sit well with one of our group later on (though I personally had no issues).

Overall: lovely spot, great vibe, thoughtful service. If you’re there more for the view and the calm than a culinary epiphany, it’s worth a visit. Just maybe skip...

Steamed crab is good! The crab was fresh and I can taste the freshness. It’s just the sauce a bit bitter. Maybe they use an old lime to it.

Stir fried crayfish with garlic - too salty, the garlic should give more taste to the dish but it makes it overwhelming.

Barracuda sashimi(?) is good. Nothing much to comment

Squid stir fried with salted egg - one of the top dish I like among what we ordered.

Somtum - normal taste, nothing much.

Curry stir fried crab (?) - not recommended at all. It’s not curry, it’s water! Don’t order this one when you visit this place.

Spicy fish egg soup (?) - I’ve been warned by some review that this place soup is quite sweet and it’s indeed sweet. This soup at least eatable, not THAT sweet. But still sweet to my taste.

Overall, portion is quite small. I liked only 3 out of 7 dishes we ordered. We spend almost 2k for these dishes. Oh, their seafood...
