Steak Tao Restaurant — Restaurant in Ko Tao

This place is great, highly recommend you try mala if you get the chance, you won't regret it! The host we had was extremely friendly and accommodating and spoke good English. Be aware that their meat dishes include all parts of the animal, so if you are less adventurous just mention it to your server and they are more than happy to exclude this from your dish. Spicy level 2 was good for a spice lover but not overpowering as to make my nose run or eyes water (there is also a container with more mala spice in it on your table so you can add more later if you feel the need). They also offer bbq skewers as well, these are very tasty and give you a chance to try the mala spice before committing to a whole dish or great for a snack if you're in a hurry, I highly recommend one of the meat skewers with pineapple and onion on it, or the tofu. You haven't lived until you've had spicy grilled pineapple! Bonus: there is also a little music station with a keyboard and a guitar if I remember correctly where you are invited to play music if you know how, nice...

After 10 years of living in Southeast Asia, I can confidently say that Steak Tao served me the best salmon I’ve had in a long time. Perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor, it was truly a standout dish. My husband ate the ribs and they were equally mouthwatering, tender, and rich with that smoky, satisfying taste you'd hope for. What made the experience even more memorable was the warmth and sincerity of the Steak Tao family. They were not only welcoming but clearly passionate about what they do, it shines through in both their food and hospitality. To top it all off, the mango sticky rice dessert was phenomenal, the perfect sweet finish to an incredible meal. I genuinely cannot wait to return. Steak Tao is a gem that’s worth...

If you're craving authentic Chinese BBQ and hot pot, look no further! This place is a gem. The skewers are absolutely top-notch—10/10 for flavor and seasoning. Every bite is packed with that perfect balance of smoky and savory goodness. The hot pot? Just as impressive, with rich broths and fresh ingredients that make each dip an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere is lively and even features great local music that adds to the vibe. Whether you're a BBQ lover or a hot pot fan, this spot delivers on every front. Highly recommend! 1300 baht for 2 but...
