Guest Reviews
Tried No 6 Restaurant The service crew was kind enough with his Thai recommendation for anyone with a poor appetite or a sensitive stomach - and it didn’t disappoint. I ordered the chicken porridge, and it was exactly what I needed: warm, comforting, and gentle on the stomach. Also tried the granola fruit yogurt, which was fresh, light, and really well-balanced. Both dishes were delicious, simple, and satisfying. Definitely a great spot to drop by, especially if you want something wholesome and easy to eat. I’ll be posting the food photos along with this review! Beware of evening dinner crowd This place is so popular that therenis a long queue
An Explosion of Flavor.... The food here is simply delicious and the taste is beyond awesome-it’s exceptional, authentic Thai cooking that truly elevates the experience. We ordered the signature Panang Curry and the fresh Mango Sticky Rice, and both were revelations. The curry was complex, perfectly balancing creamy coconut milk with a powerful, aromatic blend of chili, kaffir lime, and spices. It wasn't just hot; it was a deeply savory, nuanced flavor profile. The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, proving that the kitchen puts immense care into sourcing and preparation. The Verdict A long wait usually dampens the dining experience, but here, it was merely a temporary inconvenience before a remarkable meal. The quality of the food and the sheer depth of flavor make the higher-than-average waiting time an acceptable trade-off. It’s a clear indication that what you're waiting for is something truly special. If you are visiting Phuket and want to experience Thai food that is truly top-tier, plan ahead, be patient. You will not regret waiting for this level of culinary excellence!
This place is always crowded - and now we know why! Even though people wait in long queues, it’s absolutely worth every minute. The moment the food arrives, you can tell why it’s such a popular spot. We tried a variety of dishes and each one stood out with authentic Thai flavours. The chicken wings, Pad Thai and fried rice were the absolute showstoppers - perfectly cooked, flavour-packed and incredibly satisfying. Portions are more than sufficient, and the place is very pocket-friendly, which makes it even better. It’s one of those restaurants where you just want to keep ordering and try as many dishes as possible. If you’re in Thailand, this is definitely a must-visit spot to hog on delicious local food. Highly recommended for foodies who love exploring street-style flavours! ????????
There was a long queue, but it was worth the wait. After checking reviews, we ordered the chicken wings, which turned out to be the right choice, they were very tasty. We also tried the whole fried fish with three sauces, which was good with enough sauce for steamed rice. Service was quick despite the crowd. Seating is compact yet comfortable, with shared tables due to limited space. Prices are economical, making it great value for money and well worth the queue.
Now I understood why it was so popular. The Tom Yum Soup is extremely delicious. I have read the comments and take into account, went there around 5:30 PM and there was already a queue. But as i was single, they get me a place instantly :D the food price/quality ratio is remarkable. It comes extra heated and you really need to take time to eat it and enjoy. I paid 230 for pad thai and tom yum + soda which is nothing and couldn’t even finish it because the portions are really huge.
One of the best tourist trap restaurants in Patong. 5-stars for their super efficient service and great tasting food. Do expect to wait to be seated but once seated, you’ll feel it was worth the wait. We tried quite a variety of food and the Pad Thai and Fish and Chicken wings were the stand-out and the Tom Yum soup was very well done. A must-try experience if you have not been!
We ordered way too much food for two pax cos everything was good! This place is popular for a reason - portions are generous, the pricing is affordable, and the taste is on point. The raw prawn salad and tom yum soup were my faves, and I wish I had more space to try the other items.
Food is delicious and the price is affordable. The portion size is also very good. This is a very busy restaurant so be prepared to wait for a long time to get a spot to sit. You will have to share tables with other diners. Place is open from morning until midnight. I definitely recommend this restaurant
