Great Restaurants in Patong

The wonderful thing about spending your vacation in Patong is that there are so many outstanding restaurants you can choose from. There are so many different types of food served from all corners of the world.

It can at times be difficult to know where you should dine which is why I have compiled a list of some of my favorite eateries in town. If you are looking for a good meal then please be sure to visit some of the places listed below.

Baan Yin Dee

This is actually a hotel located on one of the hills overlooking the Andaman Sea however it also has a great restaurant serving some of the best food on the island. Be sure to try their excellent seafood dishes.

Franco Roma

There are various different Italian dining establishments in this popular Phuket resort area however one of my favorite is most certainly Franco Roma as they serve authentic Italian dishes and some remarkable pizzas.

Sam's Steak & Grill

Sam's Steak & Grill is definitely the leading steakhouse and it is in fact part of the Holiday Inn Resort. They only serve the finest Australian and US beef so if you are looking for an outstanding steak then this is the place to visit during your holiday.

Baan Rim Pa

Baan Rim Pa has won numerous awards over the years and is the most celebrated restaurant on the island. It is especially well known for its excellent Royal Thai cuisine. Please note however that it is also one of the most expensive eateries but it is definitely worth every penny.

Floyd's Brasserie

This popular brasserie is managed by the famous British television chef Keith Floyd and is located inside the Burasari hotel. Be sure to experience fine dining at its peak at this wonderful dining venue. I do suggest anyone who would like to dine there to make a reservation ahead of time.

Italian restaurants in Phuket are seemingly everywhere, but the quality of the food is usually a bit hit and miss.

Some of the best restaurants in Phuket can be found at the high-end resorts. While they are expensive, if you want incredible Western or Japanese dishes, you often have to pay for the privilege. Some of the luxury resorts in Mai Khao play host to some fine restaurants.

There are far too many Indian restaurants in Phuket, most of which are located in Patong. Patong is expensive and the focus is on mass tourism. As a result, the food is often substandard. If you want to eat Indian food in Phuket, you'd be better off checking out places in Phuket Town.
