    We went there because of a good review of this restaurant. The atmosphere was nice and most of the staffs were very nice and friendly but the food were not so good. The prices seems to be cheap for each dish but it was really not much. Normally for two people , we usually ordered 3 Thai dishes and rice and it was usually more than enough but there we had to order one more dish and it really could be more. The taste was okay, fried mixed vegetables was very good, the others were average.

    We had gone here during the sunset time. The host had graciously offered us a beautiful shack with sea view along with candle light dinner. We had ordered white snapper and squid with their special sauce , local beers making the perfect accompaniment. Price was on the higher side. Everything was good, the food, the view, the company, slow music, candle light except the constant company of mosquitos and fly. They provided us with mosquito repellent spray which was quite effective. The restrooms were so pretty and clean. We will like to come here again.

    Beautifully presented and delicious food. The spring rolls looked nice and fresh (I didn't try them because they had fish inside). My green curry had broccoli and other vegetables you wouldn't normally get, which I liked. A bit more expensive than some, but it's worth it for the quality and dinner on the beach.

    (Translated by Google) Very nice place to stay if you are looking for shade on the beach .... In the evening it is full and rather European. Whoever likes it is in good hands there 👍🏽 (Original) Sehr schöner Ort zum verweilen wenn man Schatten am Strand sucht .... Abends ist es voll und eher europäisch. Wer es mag ist dort bestens aufgehoben 👍🏽

    Great location on the beach with nice places to relax during the day or of the sunset. Tried only small dishes and they were ok. What takes one star is the rather high pricing. Fantastic place to see the sunset. Good prices on the beer, good... Service from the staff is also super good. Recommend!

  • 5/5 Slumdog G. 1 year ago on Google • 198 reviews
    Wandered towards the north end of the beach to see all the restaurant options available. Decided to go with Thai Cat, and very happy we did. Great location right on the beach. Lots of options on menu with very fair prices. Service was great, not intrusive, just got what we needed. You can't beat a nice meal right on the edge of the beach. Happy with the food quality and prices overall. Definitely recommend and will go back myself.

    We have spent many an afternoon at Thai Cat and absolutely love it. The staff are all so friendly and efficient, they work really hard to keep everything nice. Our kids love spending time there, too, with all of the toys and play equipment. The food is fantastic and you cannot beat the lovely view. Our favourites are the calamari, fried chicken, and fried rice. Best restaurant on koh lanta!

  • 5/5 Alex 3 months ago on Google • 17 reviews New
    The food is as good and the staff as nice as in the comment; at least the Pad Thai didn't disappoint me. A man who looked like a senior staff there kindly explained how I should be eating the Pad Thai - squeeze the sliced lemon on top and then choose the right condiment for a desired taste. That wasn't the first time that I had had my favorite Thai dish, yet I still thanked him as much as I had not.

    Really nice place to sit and chill, but the food wasn’t good

  • 5/5 Mariano B. 2 months ago on Google • 7 reviews New
    Great beach location for a quick lunch or very special for a dinner, beach front sunset. Food is great. Good prices. They even have a shower to get you off the sea water.

  • 4/5 Martina D. 4 years ago on Google
    Seems to be one of the higher quality restaurants. The food (we had only Thai food) was pretty good but medium spicy was quite mild. I had the Penang Curry with Tofu and sticky rice. The Roti bread was my favourite part, it was served with a sweet dip. The prices are a bit higher than average but was an overall good place to eat but nothing outstanding.

  • 5/5 malinsky 1 year ago on Google
    Very good food for a good price and super friendly and helpful staff & owner! Nice place to watch the sunset on the beach as well

  • 1/5 Julia B. 1 year ago on Google
    Hello, nothing extraordinary, just a place at the sea, the servants standing behind you, giving the feeling being observed. The quality of food less then middle class. People at the bord of the street deserve the better score.

  • 2/5 Minh Huynh A. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited the restaurant because of the good reviews, but unfortunately I was very disappointed. I ordered Pad Thai and Som Tam, but the dishes were so westernized to a point that they had ‚no flavor‘. Sadly their cuisine has nothing to do with Thai culture of cooking. Service and location are good.

  • 4/5 Emily K. 4 years ago on Google
    Great location on the beach, friendly service and fair prices for Koh Lanta.

  • 5/5 Ingrid C. 5 years ago on Google
    Pretty delicious thai food on the beach front. The prices are not lowest in the island but for that nice seat area with watching sunset is managable.

  • 2/5 Foo D. 4 years ago on Google
    Sadly the quality of the food has gone down a lot. We care here every night two years ago-it was amazing. This time, we get served old fish that already had an unpleasant “fishy” smell. The squid was barbecued carelessly, making it dry and chewy. Their seafood sauce was still tasty, as were the fried veggies, but the fish and squid was totally disappointing.

  • 5/5 Diana G. 5 years ago on Google
    Amazing food, incredible place, really nice staff so it has everything you would wish for in a restaurant. They serve traditional thai food that is really amazing. The restaurant is in Long beach, directly on the beach. So you can have dinner watching the sunset. Prices are relatively high for Thailand but worth it.

  • 5/5 Sabrina H. 5 years ago on Google
    There are many places on the beach. However, the facilities and service here are awesome. First thing in the morning, a solid hot cappuccino. They actually have a proper espresso machine. Second, the facilities for showering and bathrooms are much nicer than some of the dinkier places on this Long Beach. Meow.

  • 4/5 Tobias W. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice place to go to dinner. The rice was a bit to soft for my taste but otherwise very tasty.

  • 4/5 Fredrik H. 7 years ago on Google
    Superb location at Long Beach. Friendly and helpful staff. Fast on drinks and food. Great sea view. Showers to clean yourself up before eating if you come directly from the beach. Great for kids and parents. Recommend. Prices are hight but compensated by then view.

  • 2/5 Conny B. 2 years ago on Google
    We had an undrinkable “ice cream(?) shake” and a few drinks and dishes, all of which were well below average. Moreover, the prices seem to be set way too high, as if it was operating in high-season exploitation mode, while in fact we are still in the middle of the pandemic.

  • 5/5 Diana H. 4 years ago on Google
    Really nice romantic place on the beach. Price are decent, because quality of meal is really good. I recommend to have a seafood, with fish you will get rice and two sauces. Also you can pay by card with no fee :)

  • 5/5 Togtog 4 years ago on Google
    Best Bar ever! Chill and drink 🥃 my favorite place

  • 3/5 Hannah B. 1 year ago on Google
    Location was great, as were the staff! However, my Tom yum soup was so bland and the place had a ‘family holiday hotel’ feel about it.

  • 2/5 Sarah K. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is quiet pretty until sunset but not much to see after that. Very quiet area so not really worth staying after dinner. Service was very quick and friendly but the food was unfortunately absolutely not the quality you would expect for the price. Cocktails are surprisingly good but also quiet pricey. Would not go back.

    We went there because of the name, as we saw it riding by a few times and got curious 😂 we were not disappointed 😁 we'll, no cat there but apparently a native wild cat can be seen around there if you're lucky. We weren't 😂but got spoiled with yet another great view, friendly staff, lovely fruit shakes and yummy omelettes 😊

    (Translated by Google) Fantastic nice place - good hang both for those with and those without children. The food is very good but as someone commented it is important to say if / that you want it spicy and not Svenssonsvagt. The drinks are also good o service is fast, good and nice. It is simply a great place to hang out all day, especially if you have a Sala (ie the "hut" in one of the pictures) is recommended! (Original) Fantastiskt trevligt ställe - bra häng både för de med och de utan barn. Maten är väldigt bra men som någon kommenterat är det viktigt att säga till om/att du vill ha det spicy och inte Svenssonsvagt. Drinkarna också bra o service är snabb, bra och trevlig. Det är helt enkelt ett grymt ställe att hänga hela dagen på, särskilt om man har en Sala (alltså ”hyddan” på en av bilderna) rekommenderas!

    CAUTION FOOD POISONING! I went there on 04.02.2024 at 1pm after the food we went to the beach i started to feel a bit sick, like headache, fever and a floated belly. Around 5 pm i went to the room i showered went to the bed and tried to sleep. At 7 pm i started to vomit the whole food. I did not eat or drink anything between the meal. I had the fried rice with chili paste and chicken with a fresh watermelon juice, be careful! I'm in Thailand since 3 weeks and didn't got bad once. EDIT: I'm in the hospital with 39 degree fever and infusion + anti biotica!

👍👍 Best food on the island. Best value, the portions are generous, will not be disappointed. We ate multiple times, the Tom yum is the best I had in Thailand, not just this island. I also had the clear soup, their spring rolls are the best too. Every time great food, quick service.
