Song Pee Nong Restaurant — Restaurant in Patong

This is a great place. The food is awesome! I'm giving it a 4 stars because it's not a place you go for service. But I've been here a couple times and have experienced the atmosphere. It's pretty fast pace, it's not your wine and dine spot. You have to flag a server down in order to get something put in. They will let you be and you will need to flag someone down again in order to get your check. Again great spot for food and to people watch because it's always a popular spot to eat. The food is really good. And fair priced. My wife and I have had the Tom Yum hot pot, shrimp cashew, fried squid, fried shrimp, bacon wrapped shrimp, lobster with garlic butter and the papaya salad also a fresh coconut water from a coconut not the bottled kind . (These are not in one meal) these have all been great!...

Wouldn't eat here for free.

Food is terrible. Omelette was deep fried. Soaked with oil. Every item was delivered with 5 minutes break. Salads looked different and contained different ingredients even though it was the same salad. They bring stuff we didn't order. Coffee is absolutely revolting and they don't have milk. Only powdered white dust. Orange juice is made from powder. Wifi is advertised but doesn't work. The place is a mess and is not recommended. Not sure what goes on in the kitchen. Probably food poisoning guaranteed.

The bill provided was incorrect. Check your bill.

Update from 28/10

We all ended up with food poisoning. Three days wasted on severe case of stomach pain, vomiting and diarrhoea.

Honestly, avoid that place...

Restaurant review only - food here is excellent, however it's not in a location that is very interesting - I like watching the world go by and that's not happening in this lane way. I had a small seafood Pad Thai and two Mantis Shrimp that I've never had before. Pad Thai was delicious and the seafood very fresh and well cooked - I'll go back for this. Mantis shrimp was a good experience but I needed help with extracting the meat, which the staff did with scissors (I didn't know how).

The shrimp was pretty expensive and even though they looked massive, there wasn't as much meat as I was expecting. I'll stick with prawns/shrimp in future.

Aquariums were nice and clean and seafood looked healthy.

Lots of seating so good...
