Japan Cafe Restaurant — Restaurant in Surat Thani Province

We’ve tried to visit this restaurant two times. For the first time, we were 4 families with kids, and been told by the owner that they cannot have us because we are too many people and there isn’t enough space. I understood and we left. I came again to the restaurant a week later with my friend. We were two adults and 2 children. We came inside and sat down looking at the menu. Our children were playing next to us.

If I could give a 6th star I would! I rarely hang around the pier so in my 5 years of living on Phangan I never noticed this as we're spoiled for good food on this island. I love Japan and Japanese food, and this was the perfect example. We had the pork Katsu, Tuna sushi and a bowl of Ramen. All amazing standards and very friendly staff that make the atmosphere perfect. 😊 Ignore the bad reviews - there are many people living on Phangan with feral kids who are notoriously bad parents that neglect their duties (iPad parents)😂. Most restaurant owners dislike them as they are that bad and some have taken good measures by producing a code of conduct before entering which...
