Turkish Restaurant. The Wishing Tree (halal) — Restaurant in Ko Samui

This is hands down my favourite restaurant and bar in Koh Samui. It has a real comfortable feel, soft nice lighting and really feels like a premium set up but doesn't have premium prices. Great for sports too, big TV's but not everywhere, so if sports isnt your thing, its still the best place in town.

Me and my friend were in Samui for a week, and happily ended up back here most evenings. The first night i ordered the chili con carne with thick chips and its the nicest I've chili ever had, I actually went back to order the exact same thing the next night lol The beef rendeng was so good too, super soft and flavourful beer. The manager was telling us they make as much as they can from scratch, and it really shows. Delicious.

We got on well with the staff and owner, who gave my mate invaluable advice where to go fishing to catch what on the island, as well as golfing info. Super thankful for that.

Long story short I higly recomend the wishing tree, amazing food, comfortable place, ice cold beer on draft and a real attention to detail for what makes or an overall enjoyable experience. I'll hopefully be back on the island for my next wee holiday and 100% I will be back. Best restaurant bar...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this incredible Turkish restaurant, and I can't stop raving about it! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with such warmth and hospitality. The owner clearly puts their heart and soul into this place, and it shines through in every detail.

The food was simply divine. Each dish was bursting with authentic flavors and cooked to perfection. You can tell they use only the freshest ingredients and traditional recipes. But what truly sets this restaurant apart is the genuine care and passion of the owner. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt welcome and had an unforgettable experience.

If you're looking for a restaurant with amazing food and even better people, look no further. This place is a true gem, and I can't wait to go back!

We’re regulars here, and the food is consistently tasty. There might be the occasional small slip-up — no one’s perfect — but any constructive feedback is always taken seriously.

The vibe reminds me of a seaside restaurant somewhere in Kemer. It’s delicious, and the prices reflect that. I’d say with confidence: this isn’t a spot for backpackers on a tight budget. It’s definitely not a Big C food court — it’s a proper restaurant. That said, the prices here actually feel a bit lower than in Bali.

After your meal, you can cross the road and take a nice walk along the beach. All in all, as long as the food stays good — we’ll keep coming back 🙂

Big thanks to the big boss Niyazi Bey and both head chefs — we always feel like truly welcome guests...
