    Great food, service and atmosphere! The owner came around to see how the evening was offered aperitifs, all the staff were very helpful and professional. Food was served quick, hot and absolutely mouthwatering to look at! The food... The cold meats board with baked camembert was absolutely incredible and the eye fillet steak for two, was so incredibly good, as good as some of the higher end steakhouses in Australia. Would recommend to anyone in the area! 5 star all day!

    Well it’s a well hidden place but it deserves to find it! 😏 We were astonished with the quality of the stakes and the reasonable prices. Don’t be afraid if you are not a meat lover. You can get vegetarian dish as well This restaurant is in the backyard of the owners house, it’s like you would come into a nice cute garden / it has a lovely atmosphere. Obviously we had some steaks / pasta and “vegetarian dish” everything was perfect👌

    We drove 1 hr across the island, hoping to have a great steak. We have ordered the exception meat: wagyu marbling 6/7 (medium rare) and pork chop. The steak arrived and it was medium done, they changed it to the 2nd steak. The meat was chewy, and rough (waygu prime cut, marbling 6/7). I double checked with the lady boss and she told me the marbling melted upon cooking. She said it is disguisting to have taste the marbling after cooked. The next time when I meet the chef of Entrecote, I would tell him, coming from a french, we shouldnt not be eating the fat after cook. Kudos to this restaurant for making it to the WORST steak I had so far in my life.

    Tried out this hidden gem in Samui. Located in the home of the owner, and has mostly indoor seating with a small bar area as well. During weekend, the place has quite some number of guests. It feels cosy and also nice if having large number of people. Tried out the Beef Fillet, served with homemade fries, mushroom sauce, sautéed spinach, grilled tomato & sautéed bean sprouts. The beef is cooked very well (medium) and quite tender. It is lightly seasoned, and goes well with the sauce. The side dishes are yummy too. For desserts got the Apple Flan & Creme Brûlée. The apple flan is freshly baked & served with vanilla ice cream. The taste is mild & not too sweet. As for the creme brûlée, it is spiced with cinnamon. It masked the egginess of the custard. Totally love it. Definitely gonna comeback for more.

    Overall a fantastic experience. The owner (Valo) made us feel most welcome. The filet steak was excellent quality and perfectly cooked. The accompanying veg was bursting with flavour. Go and try it, you will love it!

    The best steak on the island and by far the best service! A hidden gem just off the main road in Bophut.

  • 5/5 Leo the S. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful French dishes here, highly recommended

  • 5/5 Ron S. 3 months ago on Google New
    We had an Onion soup starter with Filet and Flank steaks for the mains. Beef was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The shallot sauce on the side complimented the flank steak wonderfully. This is a place where you can tell the owner has put in the time and done everything necessary to deliver a world class dining experience. We'll be back, sooner than later.

    This is the best restaurant on Koh Samui, and my favourite I have visited. So much, I've been 5 times and still want to go back next time I'm on Koh Samui. It's a French bistro in a beautiful tropical covered but outdoor setting, with excellent service, drinks (wine, pastis, cocktails, beers) and genuinely incredible beef, and delicious starters and other mains and specials that will delight. Like others mentioned the Monday offer is quite incredible value, but the prices are very reasonable at other times.

  • 5/5 Enrico R. 5 months ago on Google
    The restaurant was unknown to me, but I was even more impressed by it. The service was great. They waited exactly when I had finished my starter and asked me if I could then have my main course. The food was very good and the wine was good

  • 3/5 Steve G. 1 year ago on Google
    The warm goat cheese salad was very good. The bread was good. The wine was fairly priced. The steaks were over cooked the oil used to cook the pomfrets was old. The desert was unimaginative and sad. No one stopped over to our table to inquire if the steaks were okay.

  • 5/5 Ben B. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow!! A hidden gem. We managed to book on what was a quiet night. Service was fantastic from the cool bar area to the tables. Food was superb. The deer was cooked so well. The carpaccio was the rarest I had ever had and was so, so good. Truffle mash potatoes also a highlight. Pricing also good considering quality.

    We loved the location and the excellence food. Valerie the owner of the restaurant was very friendly and gave us a great service. For shure we will come back. Merci et a bientôt

  • 4/5 Isno G. 1 year ago on Google
    After 2 weeks of thai food we thought that french cuisine would be a nice treat. It is a neat location and service was friendly. The food did not keep up with my expectations tho. I had an onion soup, which did not have typical colour and consistency. I assume they blended the soup, because it was thick and did not contain a single onion ring. As main course we had steak and steak tartare. Steak was perfectly done, but sides were mediocre. Fries were homemade but not crisp. The puree needs additional butter, a lot of it. To finish we had creme brulee, which was ok, but worse than my homemade one (and I am not a professional chef). Do not get me wrong, we had a lovely evening, service and the french owner were very accomodating - thanks for having us. But imho the food did not offer the authentic experience that other users suggested in their reviews.

    Delicious classic French food. Super yummy home made fries.

  • 4/5 rhartner 1 year ago on Google
    For the price it’s great but would have paid more for a notch of improvement of quality / selection The best was the apple tart dessert - spectacular

  • 3/5 Frederik H. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice venue, excellent service. But for a beef restaurant I'd expect better meat quality. The lamb shops were great, the escargot and beef below expectations. There is room for improvement.

  • 5/5 Виталий �. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely delicious! Great quality and prices, far less expensive than in touristic places near the lake, would have come here again. I’m very sorry that I found this place on my last day of visit on the island. 10 out of 10!

  • 5/5 Grace E. 1 year ago on Google
    What a delightful find! It is a beautiful place especially the bar. So authentic, so Samui and unpretentious. We had the French onion soup, beef carpaccio and the wagyu steak. All fantastic! Must come to try them!!

    Simply best value steak place on samui

  • 5/5 Ollie P. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic food, great selection of wine. Come on a Tuesday for steak, vegetables and dauphinois potatoes with a dessert for 385THB. Good quality meat and cooked ok. Asked for rare but was more medium rare, however a big order probably accounted for this.

    Food is amazing and service excellent... I had beef cheeks and hubby had duck. Bigger menu than I expected and the prices very reasonable. The complimentary lemonchello was much appreciatedat the end. The owners made a point of thanking us on leaving after they had ordered our cabs...would defiantly go back

    Very Good french food, reasonable prices, we had some great meat there. Definitely worth a visit if you're is samui.

    What a great evening we had. A hidden gem of wonderful French cuisine. Great steaks, well seasoned and perfectly cooked, nice presentation, very good wine selection, with friendly staff and a nice little bar for pre or post dinner drinks. I'm a convert. Vive la Cote de Bouef, Banrak Beach 👍🇫🇷👍

😐 The hotel is beautiful. We were there for 8 nights, but ended up moving hotels after 5 nights due to the number of screaming kids in the pool. It would be good if there was a dedicated pool for adults only. I felt like I was in a public pool at home. Also, limited to no hot water in the shower and n...

👍👍 Very tasty food. Felt like a genuine Thai experience. The portions are very generous. The omlette looks like it's made from 8-10 eggs. Ridiculously huge. Oyster sauce was very good. Had the chicken curry spicy and stir fried morning glory. Could have been a bit more spicy. I think they toned it down...
