Pure Joy Restaurant — Restaurant in Surat Thani Province

Best restaurant in Haadrin! You know that feeling that you want to try many different restaurants when you’re traveling somewhere? So here it’s the opposite. You just wanna go there every day, few times a day and eat till you can’t breath. Super authentic, flavorful tastes, a mix of spices that will make you wanna hug the chef (I did that).

I love meat and seafood, and my friend is vegan. We both had a lot of options as they are willing to replace the main ingredient as you wish (tofu, seafood, pork or chicken).

You must try:

Masman curry Tom yum glass noodle salad Phad Thai obviously Papaya salad

Prices are as most of Thailand, but the food is 12345 levels above!!

I’m already jealous of you for reading it and going there...

Really yummy restaurant near Haad Rin Beach. Not really any other options in terms of places with good reviews. No Name Restaurant is another option just down the road from Pure Joy but it was expensive. We came here 3 nights in a row and absolutely loved every meal! The fried rice with garlic is the best we have ever had and the curries have loads of great flavours! Very reasonably priced! Curries are 90Thb and Pad Thai and Fried Rice are 60 Thb. Great portions and the lady that serves you is really nice. When it’s busy you do wait a while for your food but that’s expected with only 1 chef in the kitchen making everything fresh and from scratch! Highly recommend...

My friend and I have chosen this restaurant because of the good reviews and we can only confirm them. The food is amazing! For me personally the best curry I have eaten in Thailand (try the Massaman Curry) but also the other dishes (Pad Thai, sweet and sour, papaya salad) were good - we went there several times. The menu is easy to read and offers good dishes. The interior is clean and lovely with white/ green tables. The owner Joy is lovely and takes good care of her guests. Very good price/value (approx. 60 - 140 per dish). The restaurant is not very easy to find (without the help of google/ maps) but definitely...
