Mum-A-Roy is a small, family-run restaurant in Taling Ngam, Koh Samui, known for its warm and friendly atmosphere. The owners truly care about their customers, making every visit feel like dining at a friend’s home.
The food is fantastic, with a great variety of dishes. Their Pad Krapow (stir-fried basil chicken), rich curries, and mango sticky rice are must-tries. Other popular dishes include chicken satay, spicy stir-fried liver, and fresh prawn salad—all packed with authentic Thai flavors.
What really sets this place apart is the service. The owner once hopped on his motorbike to grab a drink for a customer when they requested something not on the menu—talk about dedication!
If you’re looking for delicious Thai food, a cozy atmosphere, and service that makes you feel like family, Mum-A-Roy is a must-visit in Koh Samui. Highly...

Even though we would not mind paying a lot for local Thai food if it is good, we overheard in Thai language that someone picked up the same dish we ordered for takeaway, and he paid less than half the price than we paid for the same dish. Clearly there are two menus here, one for local Thai and one for tourists. Strange move, they even knew that my girlfriend was Thai so that we would find that out. But it is really not nice.
The food was ok, but not great. Not worth the...
