Phuket restaurants serve all kinds of cuisine but finding real Thai food can be a little challenging. The large majority of the restaurants in the island’s tourist areas, such as Patong Beach, Kata or Karon, have been adjusting their tastes to accommodate first-timers. You probably would never see Thai people eating in those places, and it’s usually a sign. Real Thai food is often found in more modest areas of Phuket, and we list some great Local Thai Restaurants here. Phuket Seafood is also famous, and you should try the real thing without paying a fortune by checking out our Best Local Seafood Restaurants list.

El Gaucho is well known in Bangkok as the main restaurant in Sukhumvit, next to Terminal 21 Shopping Mall. This new branch has only one vast room because of the high price.

Side dishes are also surprisingly expensive.
Shabu Baru is the latest restaurant in the village. It serves the ever-popular shabu in individual pots placed around a central counter instead of the usual central cooking pot shared by up to four guests
Hoppe looks like a coffee shop but is a small restaurant serving a mix of comfort food, Western and Thai. The food is very good and well-priced, and we order takeaway several times a week. There are only a few tables inside and three outside.

Mother Roaster Talat Noi is a popular, trendy coffee shop hidden behind an unassuming facade covered with paintings and graffiti. What probably made the cafe so popular, beyond the pretty cafe and the talented baristas, is the fact that the coffee shop is on the second floor of a mechanic junkyard.
