Our experience at this charming rooftop restaurant was exceptional. From the moment we stepped into this “mom and pop” spot we knew the food was going to be authentic and delicious Thai cuisine and we were not let down! We were greeted warmly by Vitaya, the owner, whose genuine hospitality added to the enjoyment to our evening.

Read moreRiver Chills Food&Drink in Surat Thani is a great spot for delicious Thai cuisine. We really enjoyed our meal here. The laab was tasty and well-seasoned, with a nice balance of flavors.
