So this place have fairly high rating and I am not sure why! Ok it's impressive the sea food platter until you realise it is all boiled and fairly tasteless. The prawns were gritty, the sea food is boiled and then served so believe me after half hour you can't stomach eating it as it get to room temperature (so around 30 degree Celsius in November) and it just feels right.
The Thai soup Tom Yum was good. Maybe the experience depends on what you order but really it is not good place for SEAFOOD. They have no clue how to prepare or serve seafood for it to actually taste good. Prices are decent. The whole huge tray of seafood (medium) costed us 650 Bath. But truly I would rather get less food but nicely cooked/grilled/fired and seasoned...
Need to pay extra for ice if you want to cool your bear or so. Advice you to do So, our beer was cold when served but went warm by the end of the dinner and there is nothing worse then warm beer! (Maybe only warm vodka is worse...). Anyways the shake I got rather bad. Not much flavour or fruits in it. There were some I guess but it really wasn't good and not smooth either.
Service rather bad. Someone mentioned that before and it seems like they are not much into tourist, there were few tables of Thai people and later of some tourist arrived. Although it might be just the language barrier. They smiled when I said Thank you in Thai so at least that.
Don't get fooled. On my photos the food looks fantastic. But I ate food which looked much less impressive and was so much better. It's the taste that matters.
Two starts because: 1 start = hated it, so we didn't hate it, the soup was good...

Are there the following night and had curried fish and pad Thai. I can see the governor s mansion from my hotel and was hoping to find the governor s pad Thai. What I got was good, lots of distict textures and flavors not muddied together All the others dishes were complete surprises each could on its own be a restaurants signature dish. Sorry no longer in Thailand. Think about...

It’s inside the menu, but it also explains why they have the Governors pad Thai.
It’s because the Governor lives just above on the hill behind the restaurant, and occasionally he will come down and go into the restaurant kitchen and make his own pad Thai.
