I passed by this place several times but didn't know it was Michelin Yichun Coffee.
On the last day in Phuket, I didn't know what to eat. I went to ** and saw recommendations, and then I realized it was this shop!
I came to eat immediately. When I entered the door, I saw the words "cash only!" on the door! Cash only! Cash only!
The taste is really good, and the environment is very nostalgic. There is a waiter who can speak Chinese. If there are Chinese guests, other waiters will ask him to serve.
There is no problem with ordering.

This is a local seafood restaurant with unique characteristics in Phuket, Thailand. The store is very large and bright, and is mostly open space. There are large and small containers at the door, with all kinds of seafood. Mantis shrimp, lobster, and crab are the main dishes. We ordered the most popular garlic lobster, salt and pepper mantis shrimp, curry crab, Tom Yum soup, garlic water spinach, and some snacks and barbecue. It is very cost-effective, with a large portion and a good taste. We are satisfied. The boss also gave us mango sticky rice, which is delicious.
There is a clear price list and there was a Chinese-speaking guide on the day, so it felt very friendly. But you still need to find out whether the actual price of some dishes is included in the price of water, wine or drinks, as there is a big difference. In addition to trusting the store, customers also have to look carefully when choosing seafood!

This restaurant was awarded to Michelin Biden Restaurant in 2019, so it was a bit of a head. Given the high evaluation of ordinary restaurants, I personally went to step on the taste and made the following comments: It belongs to the advantage of mid-range consumption 1. The dining environment is very simple and the pastoral atmosphere is returning to the truth. It also has Thai rural characteristics, and the dining area needs to take off shoes to eat, similar to tatami mats; 2, Thai traditional dishes, belonging to a small restaurant, the signature dish is fried fish, fish stomach like sausage filled with sauce, fried like, even fish bones are crispy, you can eat together, no waste; Thai sausage stained with osmanthus juice, too fragrant, other dishes look at the menu pictures, like what you like, the overall taste is not bad; 3, the locals are mostly, fewer tourists, tourists and locals at the same price, do not bully customers; Disadvantages: 1. Don't think that the price of the environment is very cheap, the dishes are small, and it seems cheap but expensive; 2. The location is relatively biased, it is not easy to find, just follow the navigation. Environment: 🌟🌟🌟 Taste: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Recommended: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Radish and green vegetables have their own love, only for personal comments for reference, I hope my comments can help you choose a restaurant. I wish you a happy meal! ! !
Very grounded Thai restaurant, the shrimp ball inside is delicious, the green curry soup tastes good, it looks not spicy, the entrance is very spicy, really served the taste of Thai peppers, sweating.

It's a small shop on the side of the road. I ordered curry crab. There are two kinds, a small one and a big one. I ordered the big one, which was really good, a big crab with a lot of meat. The grilled fish tasted good too.
Very good! I like coconut ice cream the most, oysters are very special, Thai fried noodles are good, very unique, worth coming! Although it is a little expensive, I enjoyed it, and the pineapple juice is also great! One word, praise

The hotel's own restaurant is very good because of the hotel's impression and the first day I don't want to toss. I come here to try it. Everything is what the hotel restaurant should look like. The decoration and layout of the service environment are no problem. ～ The freshness of the food is also very ok, but the food itself is really not delicious. Although it is Thai food, it is really not Thai. It may have some integration, but it is really not good. The final price is definitely also a hotel-level price-performance ratio. It is written for everyone to avoid lightning! #Eat a supportive seafood meal #Local food to eat #Eat a seafood meal

Thai food and grilled fish, these two together make me too addicted. Every time I eat grilled fish, I will order hot dry noodles. But I don’t recommend it this time. The hot dry noodles cooked with Tom Yum Goong soup are not flavorful. The correct way to eat it is to soak it with rice. It is super delicious. I ate two bowls. I still have an endless aftertaste when I got home.
Beach bar, eating is not the main point, the club opens at 9 am, you can pay a small entrance fee during the day to get a towel and a lounge chair to soak for a day, the DJ music is very dynamic, mixed with the sound of the waves, the beach and the restaurant are integrated.
There is a small corridor at the entrance, surrounded by real torches for lighting, the drinks here are very complete, the menu is on a fluorescent screen, suitable for ordering at night. In the spirit of this kind of place is to feel the environment, we very economically ordered a lobster pasta, a cured meat pizza, and a serving of fries.

In an old house in Phuket Town, the service is good and the response is fast. The menu is all in English. Many dishes can be chosen in large and small portions at different prices. The taste is good, with local Phuket flavor. We quickly devoured the whole table of dishes. Fried noodles, mango, sticky rice, crab meat, curry and rice noodles are all recommended.
I originally wanted to eat at another restaurant, but I couldn't find it following the navigation. When I was walking back, I accidentally saw the yellow wall behind the corner with "RAYA" written on it. The century-old building is very distinctive, the color is very beautiful, and it is beautiful for taking pictures. The taste of the food is a little salty for me, but it's okay overall, and the crab meat is very fresh. The waiter is very enthusiastic, but he doesn't speak Chinese. The menu has pictures, and ordering is no problem, but Alipay cannot be used. Want to know how to worship at Chalong Temple? Want to know how to get to Tiger Park by yourself?

It's not an internet-famous restaurant, but a natural restaurant with many locals and a little bit of atmosphere. Green mango juice is a must! I love green mangoes, and their green mango juice is really full of green mango flavor with ice cubes, without any other flavors. The curry crab made us eat deliciously. Every dish is delicious, no disappointments, you must go! And it's not expensive. Compared with the expensive dinner at the hotel by the sea the night before, this meal feels like an affordable Michelin restaurant.
The restaurant environment is just as its name suggests, surrounded by green plants and full of natural atmosphere. The shop decoration is all wooden, and there are many Thai-style trinkets. Go up along the wooden stairs built by the shop owner, and the semi-open-air seats are like dining in the forest. All the tables in the store are converted from sewing machines, which are very unique. The signature dish here is Sweet and Sour Spicy Phuket Bean Salad, which is a long bean that looks like a crab leg and is chopped and mixed with pork, dried chili, shrimp and squid legs, etc. It is very spicy.

The chicken platter was very tender and fresh, but the fried chicken was too greasy and fatty. I had delicious ice cream bread, but it was too greasy if you eat too much. It was ordinary bread but the sauce was the soul! I ordered a super large cup of green tea and drank it all with my baby, hahahaha
It is not an Internet celebrity restaurant, and its appearance is average. If you want to pick a restaurant with high appearance, don't come here. The price + portion is normal in the Patong area. As a local native, I want to talk about its taste. I pay more attention to the taste than the appearance when eating. The taste of its dishes is the most authentic Thai food I have eaten in Patong. No wonder the niece of the King of Thailand has also come to support it. Taste is like radish and greens. Everyone has their own preferences. Once you get used to it, you will like it very much. I have seen many people say in many comment areas that Thai water spinach is super delicious. As a southerner, that dish will make you doubt your life when you eat it in the south in summer. It's not that it's not delicious, but that you eat too much, so there is nothing amazing. This restaurant was brought to me by my local friend. The taste is really good. The location is relatively remote. If you want to eat good food, you can come and experience it. By the way, its hygiene and service are good, and most of the locals and foreigners dine there.

Came to this restaurant on high recommendations for fresh seafood. The variety of seafood available is wide, and you can also choose some of the shell fish before placing your orders. Recommended dishes include the black pepper fried lobster and the deep fried flower crab. Only drawback is the long waiting times for your food during dinner hours.
Near Jiangxileng, behind the bar street
‼ ️Must order: Australian lobster (garlic/cheese, half and half is OK) the meat is super chewy and tastes great~ Mantis shrimp (salt and pepper), steamed grouper, curry crab, Tom Yum soup, pineapple rice, hot water is 20 baht per cup, the store will give you mango sticky rice, it cost about 700 RMB, the whole process was communicated in Chinese, no pressure, 5 people ate until they leaned against the wall
