    This bar is amazing. Never know who you’ll see there since locals and tourists frequent it, but I guess that depends on the night. The owner, Nana, is also the head bartender. She’s a fantastic host, quick with a quip, and jokes for days. The bathroom leaves much to be desired for, but that’s the only issue I have for it. The place stays open late if there are paying customers. Oh, and NO BAR GIRLS OR FREELANCERS THERE.

    Chef Nana's Thai food is truly special, its that authentic home cook g passed down from her mother. Try her curries and never look back, then enjoy the bars specially cocktails, The Rooftop is their special take on the classic pina colada and 'Twisting my melons' is an amazing mix of Watermelon, Cucumber, black pepper and gin. Plus take your time at the bar and tall to Nana as she is one the most interesting personalities in Kamala. She makes a killer burger, and the Rooftop location makes for a unique experience in Kamala.

    (Translated by Google) Due to the many good reviews, we spent the last evening of our Thailand vacation here - almost over the roofs of Kamala. The location is right on the main street with a lot of traffic, but more or less on the 3rd floor. On the one hand, it has a beautiful view of the lively surroundings, on the other hand, there is always a pleasant breeze, which is thanks to the open-air architecture. Lovingly and comfortably furnished, ideal for sitting and eating as well as for a classic drink at the bar. We were immediately greeted in a very friendly manner by the male waitress and had some recommendations from the menu. Papaya salad, fried rice with pineapple and chicken, grilled fish and beef with basil and garlic. Everything was freshly prepared afterwards, but we gladly waited a little longer for our food. Everything was delicious and fresh. And also at really reasonable prices. But the best came for last: the cocktails! Super delicious Pina Colada and for me as a gin lover the "TWISTING MY MELONS" prepared with cucumber and fresh, yellow melon - an absolute hit! 2 of them had to be drunk;) All in all, we paid 1,200 Bath, absolutely within the limits. In addition, a great, extraordinary location, super friendly service and delicious food and drinks. Highly recommended! (Original) Aufgrund der vielen, guten Bewertungen haben wir hier den letzten Abend unseres Thailandurlaubs verbracht - quasi über den Dächern von Kamala. Die Location liegt direkt an der Hauptstraße mit viel Verkehr, dafür aber quasi auf der 3. Etage. Dadurch hat zum einen einen schönen Blick auf die lebendige Umgebung, zum anderen weht immer ein angenehmes Lüftchen, was der Open Air-Architektur zu verdanken ist. Liebevoll und gemütlich eingerichtet, sowohl zum Sitzen und Essen, als auch für den klassischen Drink an der Bar bestens geeignet. Wir wurden sofort sehr freundlich von der männlichen Bedienung empfangen und haben uns einige Empfehlungen von der Karte servieren lassen. Papaya-Salat, fried rice with pineapple und Hühnchen, gegrillten Fisch sowie Beef mit Basilikum und Knobi. Alles wurde im Anschluss frisch zubereitet, dafür haben wir gerne etwas länger auf unser Essen gewartet. Alles war sehr lecker und frisch. Und zudem zu wirklich vernünftigen Preisen. Aber das beste kam zum Schluss: die Cocktails! Super leckerer Pina Colada und für mich als Gin-Liebhaber den "TWISTING MY MELONS" mit Gurke und frischer, gelber Melone zubereitet - ein absoluter Kracher! Davon mussten gleich 2 getrunken werden ;) Alles in allem haben wir 1.200 Bath bezahlt, absolut im Rahmen. Dazu eine tolle, außergewöhnliche location, eine super freundliche Bedienung und lecker Essen und Trinken. Absolut zu empfehlen!

    The food here is AMAZING! I had the seafood red curry and it was by far the best meal I have had on my trip. The seafood was so fresh, had a lot of savory vegetables and the red curry was just perfect. I only have less than two weeks left on Phuket, but I will definitely be making the drive from Phuket Town back to Nana's to eat again at least a couple more times! Nana and Carl are so nice too, great people. They make you feel welcome and right at home. It's a fun little atmosphere, and I met some other great travelers in there. Kamala is a very nice town on the island and they have a great location. Sitting above the town on the rooftop with the open air when they open the windows create the perfect ambiance, along with the way they have done the lighting inside. Carl is also a great mixologist and makes some fantastic drinks! The bar itself is really cool, sitting on the top of an older building. You CANNOT go wrong eating at their establishment, I HIGHLY recommend it, I would give them more stars if I could! I have done a lot of traveling around SE Asia, and this is now a top destination for food and a good time for me and you if you go there!!! Just go, don't hesitate when you are in Kamala!

  • 5/5 Nana R. 2 years ago on Google
    The best restaurant in Kamala by far. The Thai cuisine truly embodies that delicious 'cooked by mom's quality that not only satisfies but also fills the belly. Nana the owner is truly an amazing owner and chef, it's normal to end up chatting for her for a long time after you finished your food. Lastly she brings a great and diverse group of customers which are always fun to meet and share a laugh with. Can't wait to go back again. Secret tip: try at least one nanajito.

    A friend told me to visit this venue. It’s a nice feeling being above the high street. It appeared to be cooler up there. Nice little restaurant. I just went for a drink to check the place out. Met Nana and her lovely Mum, who is the cook. Nana was making a very nice looking cocktail when I arrived. Definitely will go back. It’s a place that allows for a little bit of quiet.

  • 5/5 Andrew L. 5 years ago on Google
    Loved this place, everything about it. As you climb the stairs you’re greeted at the top by a charming restaurant with a unique feel to it, kind of like the hull of a ship. It feels private & peaceful. The owner is great, she really takes great pride in her food & restaurant. When you order, you’re asked how you like your food, and it can be personalised to suit. I was really impressed with the quality, it had a home-cooked feel to it that left a lasting impression on me. I ate a lot of food during my time travelling Thailand & this was up there with the best. I went back again before I left, and I enjoyed it even more the second time. Had a great laugh with the owner & staff, highly recommended!!

  • 5/5 Blake L. 6 years ago on Google
    Really nice. This place is on the top floor, which means there's always a good Breeze blowing through. They offer a variety of delicious dishes. Highly recommend it!

  • 5/5 Anders W. 4 years ago on Google
    I came to thailand for food and can honestly say this was my top 1 food destinstion. Just wonderful! And if you ask for spicy you will get spicy! I ate the tom yum and the sea food was so fresh and nice! Spice and flavors where on point! The owners lovely and will chat you up. So no problem arriving alone. The drinks where also on point! Can say the gin drink with water melon was a new take on gin & tonic and was awesome. Perfect for the hot thai weather! If you’re in Phuket this is a must!

  • 5/5 shalaka b. 1 year ago on Google
    Cannot recommend this place enough! The food is unbelievably delicious because everything is cooked fresh, made to order. Very very reasonably priced and the drinks are delicious and strong! The restaurant had the best atmosphere because it’s nice and breezy and Nana has great music taste. Nana, the owner, and her mother, are very kind and generous hosts. We came back here repeatedly. Everything we ate was good and I’d especially recommend the ginger chicken and the garlic and pepper pork and the fried rice! I’d give it 10 stars if I could!!

  • 5/5 Courtney L. 2 years ago on Google
    Nana's has a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The food is delicious. The staff members are kind courteous and helpful. We tried the Chicken and Pork Schnitzels, the Massaman Curry w/ prawns, spring rolls, fries, and chicken satay. Everything was delectable!!!

    Here is operated by an unsmart mother & a fugly daughther. Both of them didn't refund THB800 even though the actual invoice was THB3,200 and they billed to us THB4,000. As a result, we didn't get a refund THB800 but we knew that they're a scammed one. Do not visit this restaurant.

    Had a nice Thai meal. The place is up a few floors and has a nice view of the street. Nicely lit, plenty of airflow from the high up/ open air with windows everywhere. Big bonus is the staff is fluent in English and the bartender is an expat so zero worries of any communication issues. Also nice bar to relax away from local ladies pedaling their services. So.... hell fac yeah, highly recommend.

    Mediocre food at inflated prices. The mixed vegetables dish tasted and looked like they were made from frozen vegetables. Better to walk down to beach road where the food is much better value and tastier.
