Saing Restaurant & Bar — Restaurant in Krabi Province

If you're not very adventurous and looking for bland, mediocre, and Americanized Thai food; this is the place for you.

Before arriving here, we looked at their menu online. Grilled seafood was featured on their page, and we were ready to give it a try.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we were disappointed to find no such grilled seafood on their menu. Their menu seems to have been Americanized. Pizzas, burgers, and a few Thai options.

The view was very pretty, (it's right on the beach, most of the tables are in the sand) and we had a nice gentle breeze. There were some nice lanterns hanging in a large tree, and obviously we had a lot of shade.

We ordered a cheeseburger without the bun, and were shocked at it's size. It was about four bites, and was 230 baht! We also ordered a pork massaman and were extremely disappointed. It tasted like a mediocre curry that you'd get in the US, and it was too sweet.

The service also seemed unusually slow, even though there was nobody there besides our table.

Another dish we ordered was basil leaf sauce with squid, but what they served us was NOT basil leaf sauce. The waitress insisted that was just "their style", but two members of our group were born and raised in Thailand and they both agreed that it was NOT basil leaf sauce.

If you have any allergies I would not recommend coming here. We requested no flour in one of our dishes, (we asked in Thai. Like I said before, we have two Thai people in our party so it wasn't due to a miscommunication) and yet there was clearly flour. They were also out of many dishes on their menu.

We were very disappointed because the website was very appealing, and there were so many glowing reviews. The restaurant must have changed drastically over the last year because our experience...

I don’t do many reviews, but Terry was so friendly I thought I would break the habit. Summary. Nice friendly on beach restaurant with good food and friendly welcome. Great spot for breakfast, lunch or a sunset dinner. Detail. We went there first because of the google rating and went back several times because we liked it. Terry (UK) and his wife (Thai) own/run the place and cater for both western and Thai food. I only ate the Thai (which was great), but the western food looked good and so I guess is as good as the Thai. Terry is friendly chatty and thus can fill you in on anything you want to know about. He hooked us up with a local boat for a trip to a couple of the islands, got us a discount and lent us his kayak for the day;...

If you want flavorless, Ameicanized Thai food just like you can get at home, then this is the place. The only redeeming quality is the view. Food is really the worst I've had in Thailand. If you have allergies to anything, forget asking them to make it without, because they will just substitute for something that you are also allergic to. (We asked in Thai). Menu is all English, no Thai menu (that was our first clue as to what bad food was in store for us.). They were out of anything on the menu that actually looked good. Overall...
