TORTALN Thai Isan Food — Restaurant in Surat Thani Province

The worst pad thai I’ve had so far in Thailand. Extremely dry and sticky.

To your edited and unedited reply which were extremely aggressive: who orders well cooked noodles? Is that even something that a waiter asks? No one asked me whether my noodles needed to be well cooked or not I don’t think my review will kill the business but I also don’t see how people reviewed it well service was not good - extremely slow. I couldn’t find the waitress anywhere and waited over 15-20min before standing up to go get her. My food took a long time to come. when the waitress came to my table with the bill, she didn’t even bother asking if I liked my dish and if there was anything wrong with it for me to leave it uneaten. When I asked the waitress if this mushy and sticky pad thai with no sauce or flavour was how they usually serve it - she stood there avoiding the question and asked if I needed a doggy bag. I tried to clarify but she wouldn’t understand Be cautious with the words you use - you’re being completely unprofessional asking me to ruin my own life for leaving an honest review when your restaurant lacked service or taste

God bless you and I hope you get to a happy place...

Then he was throwing cans and bottles around in the restaurant area cause of his frustration. It doesn't matter how bad your business goes, you should never play it in front of your guests. It was HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL!

We waited for our food (only 2 simple green curry chickens) for more than 45 minutes. The food was delicious, but it was definitely not green curry chicken. It was something else, but still delicious and very fresh (therefore also 2 stars). The whole dinner atmosphere was ruined by the waiter and the unprofessional communication between him and the staff in the kitchen. I would avoid going there again. Unfortunately, it was a...

So so good. Finally real isan flavours (I’ve been looking for a while). We got one of the fried fish (highlight of the meal!), pork salad and some vegs with tofu. Perfect to share for 2. The spice level was fab (but you might want to ask for a little less if you’re sensitive) I’m just sad the place isn’t more crowded, it’s better than most thai...
