Finally made it here after passing by this seemingly popular place a dozen times. It was mid morning so I was the first customer but soon enough it was packed! I had a quick refreshment of coconut shake and fries which were already very good so I am very much looking forward to order entire meals next time. The menu is extensive and the prices rather affordable. The dining area is spread around a beautifully lush garden as well as an open air main restaurant. The playground is an added bonus for families with young children!

WOWEE WOW WOW. The hospitality we experienced here was just what the doctor ordered. It honestly restored my faith in mankind. When we arrived at Butterfly, which is situated on a peaceful and winding back road, we were greeted with smiling enthusiasm. The wonderfully pleasant man whom i presume is the chef/owner based on his demeanor and colorful apron, explained it would only be a moment to take our order as he dropped a complementary plate of fresh fruit for meantime munching. He returned and took our orders moments later as promised, shouting the order back into the kitchen as we relayed what we wanted which made me giggle a bit. We ordered mostly dishes marked “recommended” as it was our first visit. Stir fried chicken and cashews with a side steamed purple rice, massaman chicken curry, & shrimp ‘money bags’. When our beautifully crafted ‘money bags’ came out to the table, the young man who brought them also placed a healthy plate of what seemed to be katsu style fried chicken in front of us and explained it was also complementary! I mean, what did we do to deserve such generosity? Everything was crunchy crispy delicious. The main course came next and DAMN. Was it a man in course. Portions were huge for the price and everything was made with more than apparent passion. We ate and ate until we just couldn’t anymore. Full and satisfied we asked for our leftovers to be packed up for later enjoyment and were obliged. Honestly. This place is an absolute GEM. Highly recommend. My one and only complaint was we had a bit of a war with the local mosquitos as it had been a little rainy. The staff hooked us up with a fan without us even asking. I mean A+. Will most definitely be back to relax and eat more of the delicious food at Butterfly.

(Translated by Google) It is a bit far from the hotel and it is hard to go. There are swings for children and you can play, but since there are many mosquitoes, it is necessary to spray insect repellent. Food is good to eat local food at a reasonable price Located a little far from popular hotels and we had to walk around 20 minutes.They offer local foods at very reasonable price. (Original) ホテルからちょっと遠く、行きづらい。子供用のブランコなどがあって遊べますが、蚊が多いので虫除けスプレー必須です。料理はリーズナブルにローカルフードを食べられて良いです Located a little far from popular hotels and we had to walk around 20 minutes. They offer local foods at very reasonable price.

A contender for the friendliest restaurant in the world. Warm welcome from the owners (and cats) and free fruit while you wait for food. Great deals on burgers and the Thai food is also very reasonable. A favourite for both local expats and Thais. Be aware parking is limited for cars. No pork served from the kitchen but beers in the fridge.

Very good small restaurant. The food was top quality and so much tasty. Cute, kind and honest owner. He said: "noo, too much tip." (never heard someone complain about to much tip) Absolutely worth to take your time and go there. We got a big plate with fresh fruit and ice cream to go for free. See you next year. 😊

Absolutely amazing place. The food is good. Not watered down as I have experienced here in several places. Love the breakfast here too. Great prices but the main amazing thing here is the service. The guy is unbelievable Usually throws in a little fruit salad etc but what totally amazed me was when I told him about a long ride I planned with the scooter he run in and packed me a free ice tea and put in the scooter…. “You might get thirsty”. What an amazing guy. 💕. (I had dinner here too. Loved it)

We have enjoyed the Butterfly Restaurant’s tasty local food for years. The owners are very hospitable and often give us free fruit as a starter. Their fruit shakes, curries, and soups are delicious and the prices are cheap. Our favorite local restaurant!

Visited this place so many times (sometimes twice a day). I like their foods a lot. Price is very fair. Staffs are very friendly, their service is extraordinary great! There are also kids' playing space. You need your mosquito repellent since there are only outside space.

Very tasty food... And nice owner

(Translated by Google) Go to the COVID period Staff or shopkeepers are not good at service. Saw us as a tourist Secretly and secretly reduce the price If you go in the dark, you will be confused a little. The shop is in a narrow alley. The entrance is he doesn't have much fire. The shop has cats too. (Original) ไปช่วงโควิดค่ะ พนักงานหรือเจ้าของร้านไม่ใจบริการดี เห็นเราเป็นนักท่องเที่ยวก็ดีใจ แอบแถมแอบลดราคาให้ด้วย ถ้าไปช่วงมืดๆจะงงๆนิดนึงร้านอยู่ในหลืบๆ ทางเข้าไปเป็นเขาไม่ค่อยมีไฟเท่าไหร่ ที่ร้านมีแมวด้วยน่ารัก 5555

The best, that's how we can describe it. We went 5x since we stayed in Phuket. Wonderful food, the staff are super sweet and loving. We will be back whenever possible!

(Translated by Google) Who doesn't come to be considered a mistake? The owner of the shop is very kind, a million chicken, everything is delicious. Do not believe you have to try The shop may be confused, but it is worth it 😁. (Original) ใครไม่มาถือว่าพลาด เจ้าของร้านใจดีมาก ก.ไก่ล้านตัว อร่อยทุกอย่าง ไม่เชื่อต้องมาลอง ร้านอาจมางงๆหน่อยแต่ว่ามาแล้วคุ้ม 😁.

Amazing food and the best value this close to the beach in Phuket! Prices are not marked up for tourists like most other places in the area. Food is legit, very well prepared and nice sized portions. They have a few dishes specifically for people training muay thai etc that are loaded with calories and protein. The serving sizes are great, we always had leftovers. Try the garlic fish and turbo chicken. It's 2 chicken breasts stir fried with a heaping pile of potatoes and carrots. Can't stress enough how kind everyone is at the restaurant.

We found this place amazing to eat everyday. It’s a small local restaurant with low prices, tasty food and big portions (they are bigger than they appear on pictures). They also sometimes bring you compliments like fruits for free.

It's not an understatement when I say this is the BEST local restaurant in Phuket. We spent 2 weeks in Surin, of which 90% of our time enjoying their food. You're treated like family as soon as you walk in, and on occasion offered a free ice-cream, soda, or fruit platter while you wait. But that's not all... The food is delicious, especially the cashew chicken, kale and fried chicken (pictured) the steamed fish with lemon, AND you must try their pancakes!! They really care about the portions, flavor, and quality here, just as much as they value you as their customer. The best prices you'll see around town. Contributing to this family-run resto felt extremely right. They will be missed, and always a must when in Surin!

Best place you've ever eaten! Very cozy, tasty and soulful. There is American, Thai cuisine and a variety of breakfasts. We ate here for a month, the quality and taste of the food is always at the highest level

This restaurant has a relaxed and rustic vibe. The staff are friendly. The food is good but not exceptional. However, the low score is due to the worst red curry I’ve ever had, I’m not even sure it can be called red curry. I was asked how spicy I would like it so I said “medium spice”. I then was given basically a bowl of coconut milk. When I questioned if it was the right dish the waitress said that it was a mild version but it tasted only of coconut milk. Every other restaurant I’ve been to I’ve been asked about spicy ness level and they have simply added less or more chillies to the dish. I was charged for red curry but felt I wasn’t given it in anyway way, just all seemed a bit strange.

(Translated by Google) Incredibly friendly and warm-hearted, the kitchen was very well adapted to the tourist palate, very cheap, nice ambience in the garden, even a small children's playground. We were there five times, on the last day we were given two (!) Fruit plates and chicken wings as a surprise - just like that! (Original) Unglaublich freundlich und warmherzig, Küche sehr gut evt etwas an den touristischen Gaumen angepasst, sehr günstig, schönes Ambiente im Garten, sogar kleiner Kinderspielplatz. Wir waren gleich fünf mal da, am letzten Tag bekamen wir zur Überraschung zwei (!) Früchteteller und Pouletflügeli - einfach so!

The staff is very nice and friendly. I ordered just only fish and chips (take away) but they also got me ice cream and lime tea for free. I recommend you here!

(Translated by Google) Really the best place in the area of ​​those who went. Large portions, tasty, friendly and the prices are good. Of the shortcomings, a large workload in the evenings, we have to wait. (Original) Действительно лучшее место на районе из тех куда ходили. Большие порции, вкусно, дружелюбно и цены хорошие. Из недостатков большая загруженность по вечерам, приходится ждать.

(Translated by Google) World class, huge portions - small price A lot of tourists but still absolutely pure Thailand! (Original) Weltklasse, riesen Portionen - kleiner Preis Sehr viele Touris aber trotzdem absolut Thailand pur !

(Translated by Google) Very tasty, large portions, not expensive. (Original) Очень вкусно , большие порции , не дорого.

(Translated by Google) One of the favorite places in Phuket. The food is all delicious, the portions are large, the owner of the restaurant is a sincere person) (Original) Одно из любимых мест на пхукете. Еда вся вкусная, порции большие, хозяин ресторана душевный человек)

Great hidden gem! Cheap prices, none of these tourist prices you find on most of the island. Food is very tasty, the home made iced teas are also awesome. Would definitely recommend stopping in, we will be back tomorrow. We also got a small complimentary fruit bowl for breakfast what was a really nice surprise.

Authentic meals. Kind staff. Great mango sticky rice 🥭 Pinapple red curry soup is the top🔝 Pancake is something you must try 🥞

(Translated by Google) This is the most excellent and wonderful cafe, very friendly staff, large portions for a very reasonable price. We went exclusively to this place. Recommend! (Original) Это самое отличное и замечательное кафе, очень приветливый персонал, большие порции за очень приемлимую стоимость. Ходили исключительно в это место. Рекомендую!

Best place to eat! Staff is amazing. Food preparing really fast! Cozy place. They let us in when it was off hours.

Lovely place to eat near Surin beach! Very cosy, with lots of cats. There is also a kids area to play with toboggans. Food is tasty and special mention to the non sugared coffee and mango smoothie which were perfectly fine this way! We were offered free water, a crispy pork plate as well as fruits. The owner of the place is so kind and enthusiast it was pleasant to sit at his table.

Local restaurant away from tourist spots that serves great authentic food. Owners are really friendly and made us feel welcome, and they also saved us a car space. Food tasted great and at local prices. Also offered us free fruit after our meal which we took back to the hotel.

I don’t know what happened but anyone who gives this restaurant a 5 star either has never tasted real traditional Thai food or they just like a washed down version of it. As soon as I saw the fishcakes I could see it was ent going to be good. We asked for spicy and good had no taste.

Great Thai food value for money. Their western menu (of burger, sandwiches etc) is also very appetising. Highly recommended. I will be going there for breakfast tomorrow too.

excellent establishment. low price, excellent quality and taste of dishes (believe me, we visited a lot of establishments, but we return several times only to the top ones). just look at the size of a serving of pineapple (it’s not realistic to eat, although in other establishments this dish is 2-3 times smaller). tom yum is excellent, tom kha is excellent, pad thai is the best, curry is superb. you will be constantly brought as a gift fruits, cocktails, ice cream. categorically refuse big tips)))

Making up for fairly average food were the service, prices and ambience. We also had complimentary dishes now and then which was a nice touch. Prices were reasonable which was a nice surprise considering treacherous tourist traps lay waiting to ambush visitors everywhere on this island. Overall it is a decent dining spot though not one I would push for.

Best food and hospitality in Phuket. Massive portions of delicious food alongside some complimentary drinks and entrees. The host was so sweet and made sure we left with a full tummy. Gave us some free ice cream on our trip home. We will be back!

Amazing place! Went there a few times during our stay in Phuket and the staff was always welcoming, many times we got extra fruits and snacks if we waited longer (which was still short for us but hey it's great service). One evening the lady was running after us to give us free coconut, it was super nice. The food was delicious and they serve many breakfast options, as well as an extensive choice of Thai food. The price is also very good compared to other places we tried.

I’d say that it’s one of the best place in a whole Thailand! Friendly and smiling staff will make you smile back :) Delicious food, best I’ve tried in Phuket and Bangkok!

Wonderful Thai food. Large portion size. Some of the best home style Thai food I've eaten in 20 years of visiting Thailand. Highly recommended

Nice and local restaurant. The food is delicious and the portions are quite big.

Fantastic Thai food in a lovely outdoor setting. The owner is so welcoming and friendly, makes you feel at home right away. Definitely worth a visit or few!

This place is awesome and the family that runs it makes it so special. The food was incredible and portions massive. It's very filling and leaves you stuffed. The flavor is impeccable and the owners care that you are there. They go out of their way to ensure you're hydrated and check if you need anything else. At the end of our meal we got complimentary watermelon and ice cream. Such a pleasant surprise and treat. Super yummy.

Fantastic service. Maybe the best service i've ever received in Asia. Great atmosphere with a large variety menu. We will surely be back.

Good food at good prices and the staff are really nice people! Such a pleasure to eat here.

Very nice & cozy traditional Thai restaurant. Also very friendly owner & staffs. And a friendly cat :3

This place was outstanding for service. They gave us free icecream, tea and water and prices are already cheap. I don't recommend this place I insist that you try it before leaving Phuket it's a real hidden gem.

Quiet but lovely garden and pleasant local place for dinner breakfast n lunch too. Set amongst the trees in a small baan area off the main road from north to south at the northern end of Surin beach village. Tay ( I thinks that’s how his name is spelt) is very good host. Kind and generous. With often some free entree or drink with your meal. Children’s play ground, and very sweet and gentle cats to cuddle should you wish. Food is solid quality and tasty. The green coconut based curry is very very good. Beer is reasonably priced n cold. Lots of locals eat in or you can order a delivery should you wish. Beef burgers are cheap and quite decent fare. Western food available to a degree. Breakfast nice n good value. Delicious banana pancakes n fresh coffee hits the spot after early gym workout.

Our local hero: delicious and authentic Thai food with local prizes. We went there for breakfast, lunch and dinner. A lot of locals also eat there!

Let the pictures speak for themselves. 6 minutes from Surin Beach. Amazing owner and even better chef. The food was incredible! We have been here for a week and eaten dives to upscale and we both are in awe at this gem we stumbled upon. *Shrimp w/ tamarind sauce *chicken pad Thai *fried noodles with chicken

(Translated by Google) Delicious food, good atmosphere, very good service. More importantly, the price is very cost-effective. (Original) อาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดี บริการดีมากกกกกกกกกก ที่สำคัญราคาถูกคุ้มมากๆค่ะ

Very friendly service with good quality tasty food. Be careful not to over order.

(Translated by Google) The best food in Surin Vilage - from breakfast to dinner. Prices are much lower than for neighbors. Mega friendly service, they are bending as much as they can! About fashionable hours - a lot of customers - but it's worth waiting for your dish 😋😋😋 (Original) Najlepsze w Surin Vilage jedzenie - od śniadań do kolacji. Ceny duuuuuużo niższe niż u sąsiadów.
