Tonsai Restaurant — Restaurant in Surat Thani Province

The food here? Absolutely top-notch—flavors that will make you question every life decision that led you to eat anywhere else. BUT… if you walk in and see a big group already seated, just know that time will no longer move at the normal speed. You’re entering a whole new dimension of waiting.

By the time your food arrives, you could:

Meet someone, fall in love, have a whirlwind romance, break up dramatically, and then get back together after realizing they were ‘the one’ all along.

Apply to college, graduate with honors, get a decent job, and question all your life choices.

Watch a toddler at another table grow into a full-fledged adult with a mortgage and back pain.

Start a new Netflix series, get emotionally attached to the characters, only to have it get canceled after one season.

Train for a marathon, decide you hate running, and switch to yoga instead.

Write a novel, get rejected by 12 publishers, self-publish, and then have it turn into a surprise bestseller.

Adopt a puppy, watch it grow into a full-sized dog, and teach it to fetch just in time for your meal.

Solve a Rubik’s Cube, get way too into it, and accidentally become a world champion.

Finally respond to all those ‘we should catch up soon!’ texts from the past five years.

In summary, the food is WORTH IT. Just make sure you clear your schedule… maybe for the...

This restaurant is a hidden gem! The food is incredibly delicious, from the Thai Phangan Curry and beef omelette to the papaya rolls, oyster mushroom, and mango sticky rice. Every dish is bursting with flavor.

The service is exceptional, with a super nice and happy staff who make you feel valued. The atmosphere is lovely, creating a pleasant dining experience. Don't miss their great Thai tea, which perfectly complements the meal.

This place offers great value for money, making it totally worth every penny! If you're seeking delicious food, friendly service, a nice atmosphere, and excellent value, don't hesitate to visit...

Brilliant food and good prizes! We ordered Khao Soi and Pad Thai Chaiya and both were best dishes we’ve got in Thailand so far. For this kind of food the charge reasonable money, so I really recommend to eat there!

About not nice things - it’s next to main road, so you have a lot of sounds from there and in menu is more than 40 pages. It took me forever to read it all and decide. I remember saying „I came hungry - it suppose to be easy to order food”.

Beside of that, I think it’s one of the best kitchens in whole Ko Phangan. Totally recommend...
