Narna Bar & Restaurant Kathu — Restaurant in Kathu

I haven’t eaten this well in a long time, even though I’ve been living in Phuket for years. This place is a real gem. The attention to detail is outstanding, and you can tell the food is made with love.

The cashew chicken was absolutely incredible! I’ve had this dish in fancy restaurants with a view, but it was nowhere near as good as it is here. Everything was perfectly balanced — the sauce, the texture, the freshness of the ingredients.

The prawn noodles deserve a special mention. In many places, they don’t bother cleaning the prawns properly, and you end up fighting with your food. Not here. The prawns were peeled, tender, and literally melted in my mouth. It was pure enjoyment.

I stopped by the bar around 11:30 PM and was happy they agreed to make me a quick cocktail. I wanted to spend time at the bar but they offered me to take away. Due to heavy dust from nearby roadwork, I chose to do it. I ordered a passion fruit mojito, but unfortunately, it was disappointing this time — no mint, regular sugar instead of syrup, and the taste felt unbalanced. A few weeks ago, the drinks were great, the staff was friendly, and I even left a tip. I really liked the place back then, so I hope this visit was just an...
