Thailand boasts incredible restaurants offering delectable food and breathtaking views. Whether it’s the allure of the amazing food or the stunning sea vistas that draws me back every few months, there’s nothing quite like indulging in delicious Thai cuisine with such a picturesque backdrop!
As a Thailand Destination Wedding Expert, I'm often asked for dining recommendations. Here are my favourite restaurants in Phuket.
⭐ Baan Rim Pa Restaurant Phuket ⭐
Baan Rim Pa is an authentic award winning Thai restaurant located on Phuket island, Thailand, celebrated for its fresh seafood and traditional Thai cuisine, including favorites like Pad Thai, Tom Yum soup, Phuket lobster, and Massaman curry, as well as vegetarian choices. Each table offers a stunning panoramic view of the turquoise waters and Patong Beach. Whether you join for lunch or dinner, the views are simply breathtaking. Sunset is a very special time of the day all year round.
Baan Rim Pa, which means ‘house by the cliff’, was the restaurant founder’s house at one time. The restaurant specializes in Royal Thai Cuisine, once enjoyed by royal families of the past. It was named Thailand's Best Restaurant in 2013 and has received the esteemed Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence multiple times over the years.
