The Chef Thai Restaurant and Bar

5 Alan Alan - 3 years ago

The best nice, sit down restaurant on the island in Chaweng beach and it’s conveniently located across the street from and owned by the Samui Paradise Resort and Spa where we were staying. We ate here 3 out of 5 nights we were on the island. The ambiance is neat, clean and upscale compared to many other places.

I recommend the deep fried fish and BBQ tiger prawns. Pineapple fried rice was great as was the tom yum soup and sweet and sour chicken. Mango sticky rice is a must! Prices seem reasonable. Service was great! Only downside is they don’t have AC and it’s outdoor.

The food was great so was the atmosphere. Probably even prettier at night when lit up. My only complaint, with the servings were bigger..... that's mainly cause the food was so yummy.
I had the seared tuna, he had a duck dish.

Ambience - check!
Lighting - check!
Service - check! They were okay enough to accommodate my request to put my prawn fried rice in a pineapple. :) They mistook me Thai so they gave me a menu without pictures. . Haha
Smell - it's nice that they have a pond-ish thing BUT it really smells bad and takes away the good appetite of diners

I enjoyed my food.. you can't go wrong with fried rice I guess and the prawns are fresh..
Bf didn't enjoy his pad see eiw.
We also had the chef prawns covered in corn flakes. Bf liked it.. for me it was so-so. Maybe because the breading is so thick you can barely taste the prawns.

I also kinda like the sewing machine style under the table. But those chairs are too heavy! :)
Price okay.

Overall, I will eat here again if the smell is not so bad.

Ambient is good and also the very helpful Staff. Quality of the Meals were absolutly ok.
Everything was clean!
Avoid to sit near the small river on evening because there are plenty of mosquitos. Toilets are also very clean!
Prices are normal...
Give them a try!
