Aop Karon Seafood — Restaurant in Karon

extremely bad service! waitress had obviously no clue about english menu. she couldn’t seperate starters/ main course, brought still water instead of sparkling water. sparkling water does not exist she said after asking again. another person brought finally the correct water. but we used it for the horrible white wine. papayasalad was just like nothing, not spicy. we received one main course first with a starter, later we received the other maincourse and finally the second starter. my scampi shrimps were great, my partner’s fish was soaked with oil, we complaint and waitress smiled back and gave a sh.. about it. we gave it entirely back - just inedible. no one asked if the food was good, no one offered anything else to eat. we complained twice about the fish, no reaction. at the cashiers desk we complained again about the oil soaked (bbq fish), reaction: ooh. nothing else. 1800 baht is not expensive if i compare to my homecountry, it is a bit expensive here in thailand …. but for 4 menus- 1 very good, 1 just ok, 1 bad and 1 inedible …. sorry, but...

The total cost was 590 Thai Baht, which is reasonable considering I didn't order...

Came in here for a quick bite to eat. Food was okay, but service was slow - maybe a particularly busy time.
