Sala Thai Art Gallery and Restaurant in Surat Thani

"We loved the local greens and the crab omelette. The curry was also delicious, full of nice veggies like eggplant and pumpkin, and they had a nice mango sticky rice too. The papaya salad was not the most flavorful we’ve had- just okay. The restaurant has a really nice atmosphere and was clean, including the bathroom."

"Our first meal in Koh Samui and it was phenomenal. Did the Royal Thai set for 1100 baht and it was so tasty! The green curry was the best of the trip. Do not miss this restaurant!"

"From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the incredibly friendly and attentive staff — always smiling, always making sure we were comfortable. The atmosphere is absolutely charming, with a beautifully authentic Thai interior that immediately transports you to the heart of Thailand. The menu offers an outstanding selection of traditional dishes, all freshly prepared with love and bursting with flavor. A true highlight was the grilled pork back – perfectly marinated, juicy, and tender – easily a 10/10. One of the best Thai dishes I’ve ever had! What made the experience even more special: after our meal, the head chef personally came out to thank us for the tip – a truly heartwarming moment that showed just how much passion and appreciation goes into every detail here. If you’re looking for real, authentic Thai cuisine on Koh Samui, look no further. This is hands down the best Thai restaurant we’ve found on the island. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience genuine Thai hospitality and unforgettable food."

"Was passing by the restaurant, looking for the place with the nice Thai food. We saw couple of tables already occupied and decided to try. Didn't expect that it will be sooo good! Super welcoming, atmosphere was amazing. Food also just great. Really fresh seafood and incredible taste of other ingredients. Thank you!"

"From the decor to the staff to the excellent food, we had an amazing experience we ordered the pad thai which comes in a soft fried egg shell, veggie spring rolls are amazing the Tom Kha soup and you must try their mango sticky rice. We also tried the pineapple fried rice. We didn’t like it as much."

"We really enjoyed our dinner and came back for the second dinner the next day. Beautiful traditional setting and calming atmosphere is a great departure from many busy and noisy places down the street. The food was really tasty - after reading the reviews we ordered yellow curry with pineapple and phad thai - both were spectacular. Mango salad was also great - more on the spicy side. The staff was friendly and adjusted the spice levels to our needs. Highly recommend."

"Absolutely fantastic Thai restaurant near chewang Beach! We ordered the Thai green curry, Thai red curry and jasmine rice, every dish was full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The portion of prawn crackers was incredibly generous too, which was a lovely touch. The staff were genuinely kind, welcoming, and so helpful throughout our visit, we felt really well looked after from start to finish. The hospitality here truly stands out. The food was honestly 10/10, prices were very reasonable, and having free Wi-Fi was a great bonus. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone visiting Koh Samui. We’ll definitely be back!"

"Very delicious food! Ordered a main and dessert, both were great. The mango sticky rice was the best one I’ve had so far Staff was also super friendly!"
