Krua Reuan Thai Restaurant Hatyai — Restaurant in Songkhla Province

Overall the atmosphere was great and clean, deco was traditional Thai. Air-conditioned, but there were a number of mosquitoes that made the experience bad. Waitresses were fast and understood English Food menus were lacking in pictorial, so the best was to ask for recommendations from the waitress. Drinks were limited as many were out of stocks except for bottled juices and water. We took 4 recommendations from the waitress, deep fried pork, thick curry pork, omelette and kailan (vege) with salted fish. Though the restaurant was almost packed, the food arrived rather fast. All were good and tasty. Maybe slightly salty for our family, but I think that was the standard for Thai food. Price wise - Total approx THB900 incl 2 juices and bottle of water. Majority of patrons were local. Many came in luxury cars. Summary - Though we thought the price was reasonable for such meal, it was on the high side especially for locals in Hatyai. The environment was a plus point. My rating was between 3.5...

came in earlier for dinner but not allowed to go in though many empty tables (reservation 630pm) two persons ordered appetizer and main course. waiter nor the cashier bother to ask if we were ready for main course once we finished with appetizer. cashier fridgiting for us to leave by 8pm and even told us after that to leave in 10 minutes. cashier didn’t even know what we had ordered and asked waiter to tell him what we had before issuing the bills. time spent 1hour 30 minutes including waiting time for both appetizer and main course. cashier could have been friendly rather than faking it to be friendly. told us to leave in 10 minutes with reason to accommodate the next guest was so uncalled for as the restaurant published closing time was 8pm. took me a long time to write this review ‘cause i should have understand people in the service industry better. but not for this restaurant. food was good but not great and service...

I love living in Hat Yai, but the culture doesn't feel as Thai as Bangkok or other places in the central plains and northern Thailand. There are big Chinese and Muslim populations, and most visitors from Malaysia are Muslim or Chinese. Krua Reuan Thai is one big exception. The building and interior decoration is classically Thai and very attractive. The food is also classically Thai and very tasty. It's not the cheapest place in Hat Yai for Thai food, but eating there is a great experience. There isn't much seating available. If you're lucky, there will be a vacant table when you arrive. If you want to guarantee a table, it may be wise to call ahead and reserve a table. The location is next door to the Crystal Hotel, very near to...
