MeeTonPoe Phuket Town — Restaurant in Ratsada

This restaurant left an excellent impression on us! The food was not only exceptionally delicious but also beautifully presented, showcasing great attention to detail. The total cost of our meal was 675 Baht, which we found to be a great value considering the variety and quality of dishes. The payment system is also unique – you pay for the grilled skewers (70 Baht) upfront, while the rest is settled after the meal.

Here’s what we ordered: • Chicken satay: Absolutely delicious – juicy, perfectly grilled, and served with a fantastic peanut sauce that enhanced the flavor beautifully. • Tom Yum soup: We opted for the shareable version (a single-serving option was also available). It was intensely aromatic and wonderfully seasoned. • Shrimp in batter: A light and crispy appetizer, cooked to perfection. • Pad Thai with shrimp: Full of flavor and perfectly complemented by its toppings. • Red curry with pork: Although marked with just one chili in the menu, it was quite spicy for me – a great taste, but definitely for those with a high tolerance for spicy dishes. • Three matcha frappés: Refreshing and perfect for a hot day.

It’s worth mentioning that one chili in the menu represents Thai spice levels, which can be challenging for unaccustomed European taste buds. If you’re not a fan of spicy food, make sure to consider this when ordering.

We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to enjoy authentic Thai flavors in a friendly atmosphere and at a...

During my visit to the original restaurant in Phuket, I decided to try their signature dish, the Fried Noodle 'Hok Kien' with egg. Although the noodle itself was enjoyable, I found the flavor to be a bit on the salty side, which may not be to everyone's taste. However, if you're a fan of noodles, it's still worth a try.

I also had the Pork Satay, which was decent but didn't stand out as particularly special. While it may not have been a standout dish, it was still enjoyable enough.

Considering that this is the original restaurant in Phuket, I would still recommend giving it a try if you happen to be in town. I's worth experiencing the originality and ambiance...
