Mukti Hua Hin — Restaurant in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province

Mukti Indian Restaurant in Hua Hin offers a genuinely impressive dining experience, both in terms of atmosphere and culinary quality. The space is elegantly decorated with a warm, modern take on Indian motifs—inviting yet refined, with carefully set tables and a peaceful ambiance that allows the food to take center stage.

The meal started on a high note with crispy pani puri, served with vibrant shot glasses of chutney—sweet, tangy, and spicy in all the right ways. The murgh tandoor arrived beautifully charred and juicy, accompanied by a fresh cabbage slaw and mint chutney that brought brightness to the dish. The mango lassi was rich and cooling, perfectly balanced between creamy and tart.

Among the mains, the chicken tikka masala was a standout, silky and robust with a well-balanced tomato-based sauce. The butter chicken offered a slightly creamier, more indulgent profile without tipping into cloying sweetness. For those who prefer deeper spice layers, the lamb rogan josh was aromatic and beautifully cooked, with a rich, slow-cooked consistency that delivered both comfort and complexity. The palak paneer was another highlight, smooth and subtly spiced with generous cubes of fresh paneer and a fragrant tempering of chili and garlic.

Vegetarian options were treated with equal care. The aloo gobi was hearty, rustic, and warmly spiced, with cauliflower and potatoes cooked to just the right texture. The raita, though often overlooked in many places, was fresh, lightly seasoned, and cooling—just what was needed alongside the richer curries. The matar pulao was a wonderful complement, with fluffy basmati rice, sweet peas, and toasted cumin offering texture and balance. The garlic naan was blistered and fragrant, excellent for mopping up the sauces.

To end the meal, the gulab jamun came warm and syrup-soaked, with a satisfying softness and just the right level of sweetness—comforting without being overwhelming.

Service was attentive and professional throughout, with a genuine warmth from the staff that added to the overall experience. Portion sizes were generous but not excessive, and the plating across dishes was thoughtful and clean.

Mukti succeeds in delivering both authenticity and elegance, making it one of the most compelling Indian dining options in Hua Hin. It's a place where the flavours are deep, the environment is serene, and every dish feels like it has been prepared with intention. A memorable meal well worth returning for and huge contrast to the disappointing dinner were had at Indian Hut Restaurant in Hua Hin a...

Having travelled to Hua Hin on many occasion over the years and never finding an opportunity for a good Indian meal, this restaurant has just provided us with one of the tastiest Indian meals outside of India.

This was an opportune find by my wife as she looked for an alternative menu for the evening.

I had tiger prawns cooked in the tandor and chicken pakoras with the thinnest of batter coating, an excellent start. Having experienced butter naan whilst in India a butter naan that is rare in the UK but well worth asking for, I had to try this as it was on the menu, a thin nan coated in butter was delightful. For mains we had a Dhal dish and chicken tikka masala with another butter naan. Again the dishes were delightful. The tikka masala is not like the uk and had some spice to it.

We had a few conversations with the lady owner who has worked 6 days a week over the first year of being open. Praise must be given to her and the staff as they try and integrate Indian food within a reserved Thai culture.

Now we also noted some review talk about the food being salty, we did not experience this and many a restaurant in the uk and overseas put a lot of seasoning into their food to bring out the taste, on this occasion we did not wake up with that dry mouth feeling that is common with salty food.

A good spot for something different, restaurant is well appointed and laid out to provide you with a great comfortable...

Food is very good and it was a flip If we went more expensive to Mukti or to the other local Indian Atcha.

When we arrived no one else was there (low season), however after a 40 mins wait serving carry outs and another regulars our food eventually arrived ( was in the brink of walking out).

I must say it was very nice taste and although a thirty minute wait is not uncommon for freshly cooked food in good restaurants, this was not the case.

The staff were very apologetic, however that didn’t bring the food any quicker and I could have understood that with a full restaurant. It seems regulars and carry out orders take preference which in my opinion means a poorly run restaurant. I’d recommended food but they need to focus on their priorities.

I appreciate their candid reply and hope it will make things better in the future. Although a small point our order was in fact taken well before the other two customers had even arrived, where it went is more of a question rather than defending...
