Oceano Indian Kitchen Phuket |North Indian|Arabic|Thai — Restaurant in Rawai

VERY REASONABLE POCKET FRIENDLY PRICE & FANTASTIC FOOD & MIND-BLOWING LOCATION @ Phuket, Thailand

Discovering authentic Indian cuisine while your toes sink into the pristine sands of Nai Harn Beach feels almost too good to be true – yet Oceano Orient Indian Cafe delivers exactly this magical experience.

The tandoori prawns arrive sizzling with perfectly balanced spices, while their signature butter chicken offers that rich, creamy comfort you crave with an ocean breeze as your dining companion. The garlic naan, fresh from the tandoor, pairs beautifully with their aromatic lamb vindaloo that strikes the perfect heat level without overwhelming your palate.

What sets this place apart isn't just the stunning Andaman- Sea backdrop during sunset, but the genuine warmth of the staff who clearly take pride in their craft. The spice blends taste authentically Indian – no shortcuts or compromises despite the beachside setting.

At reasonable prices for beachfront dining, you're getting exceptional value. The combination of quality cuisine, breathtaking views, and relaxed atmosphere makes this a must-visit gem.

Perfect for curry lovers seeking that rare blend of authentic flavors and tropical paradise vibes. This hidden treasure proves that the best meals come with...

We came here for dinner and the staff was friendly and helpful. Chill vibe with great ocean view to boot. There were a couple of local insects joining us (most likely attracted by the lights) but the staff brought out a fan to fix that and when a table that wasn't directly under the lights became available, we were moved over there.

And did we enjoy our dinner! Had the butter paneer, chicken sagwala (cooked in spinach), Mughal dal (mung bean) to go with naan, roti, and paratha. The portions may "looked small" but they're not.

Are like a Maharajah yet we felt just right, not overly done. The menu is extensive and we'd be back for a lazy lunch of mutton biryani, fresh raita and lassi (they have 4 choices). Great value, fresh food, clean cutlery and plates too. Definitely give...

One star – Dishonest and disappointing

I’ve spent years in India and currently live in Japan, so I know the difference between paneer and tofu. What I was served here was tofu, not paneer—completely different in taste and texture.

Even worse, they tried to charge me for it. Only after I firmly refused did they remove it from the bill. No apology, no ownership of the mistake.

This isn’t just a small oversight—it’s dishonest and shows a complete lack of respect for the customer. I won’t return, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who actually knows or appreciates...
