Where to eat Thai food in Ko Chang: The Best Restaurants and Bars

April 29, 2020 Cedrick Jardin

Find out what Thai restaurants to try in Ko Chang. Ko Chang means “Elephant Island,” and indeed, if you’d like an up-close-and-personal encounter with the world’s largest land mammal, you can do that here—you can even swim with them at Ban Kwan Chang, an elephant preserve recommended by TripAdvisor travelers. In the past few years, the island has experienced a huge boom in tourism, so new hotels and restaurants abound.

We came here for lunch upon arrival on Ko Chang before checking into our nearby hotel. We came again the following day for dinner. This place is a family-run gem with fantastic service, delicious food, and generous portions. My oldest has souvlaki, my husband and I a lamb gyro each, and my youngest a chicken gyro plate. On our second trip, my husband and I ordered a lamb gyro plate each and our sons split a chicken gyro plate.

Reviewed By lordS01

Been there 3 times for dinner while staying at the koh chang paradise beach resort. The food was very good, they offer from non spicy up to thai spicy (the green curry gave me the kicks ;). I also did like the deep fried fish with tamarind sauce a lot. Pricing is just normal (and cheaper than on the beach in the resorts restaurants).The staff (owner is cooking himself, wife is helping the service) is very friendly and they gave our boy (2,5yrs) a special experience by giving him a cooking apron and taking him for servicing other customers. he loved it a lot, thank you very much! Another thing he did like just as much was the coconut shake, served inside a coconut and the best we got during our 2 week on koh chang.

Reviewed By Mattiasdad

We chanced upon this beach side restaurant and boy were glad that we did! The prices are comparable to most restaurants around the area but the atmosphere, service and loving prepared dishes is what separates this place from the rest. We enjoyed it so much that we returned 3 days in a row for breakfast/lunch while the kids snorkel and the adults lounged on the beach chairs. Cannot comment on the western component of the menu, but the thai food was the best we tasted during the trip. Make a point to try the coconut red curry or tom yum (they actually serve it in the coconut and use the coconut meat in the dish!). The crispy soft shell crab, pad siew, mango som tom and seafood dishes were all delicious. Not one bad dish from all that we tried. The shakes were cold and not watered down (pineapple, mango, watermelon, lime/mint were all yum). Did not order any alcohol but can only imagine them being up to snuff as well. Chill music was gently played through the restaurant and beach area making this place a perfect spot to just relax. Service was attentive but not overly zealous (ie. trying to oversell). We had a tab started for each day and had no issues with the accuracy of the bill when it came to settle up. Truthfully the experience here was so amazing that we did not visit any other beaches during our stay in Ko Chang, opting to arrive when they open at 8am and stay to around 2pm each day (before it got too hot or busy).

We spent six glorious days at the Santhiya Tree Resort. We really were treated like royalty here. Probably the closest thing to paradise that I’ve ever seen. The breakfast buffet has everything you could want, from local cuisine to international favorites. Eggs Benedict, no problem, shrimp fried rice, they have it. But even better than the selection and quality of the food, is the service we received from the staff. In particular, look for Donald Leozta. He waited on us for nearly all our meals. We got to know him pretty well and he is a prince of a young man. He helped make our stay here a vacation we’ll never forget.Dear Khun from-Denver-Chicago,Greetings from SANTHIYA TREE KOH CHANG RESORT – An oasis of serenity amidst the charming beach.Thank you for your kind constructive feed back, that's very generosity of you.We've been strive very hard to meet our guest satisfaction and this is our reward to hear that you had a wonderful time with our Chantara Restaurant.Regarding to your mention our team member "Donald"(Waiter) I'll passing your compliment to him and also letting our team member to know as well.Hopefully we could have a chance to welcoming and servicing you again soon on your next holiday.Have a fabulous day,With our honor,Thamanoon BusabongGeneral ManagerSanthiya Tree Koh Chang Resort

Reviewed By D19650311

We ordered 8 different dishes with 4 of us. Had to wait 30 min as another table with 6 came in just before us. We were so hungry and all dishes finally arrived within a couple minutes. All the dishes were tasty. A few overpriced Som tam 140 baht ? while in general prices are rather at the higher end. One back draw was a 3% surcharge for credit card which should not be. Just charge 5% service charge might help. Good enough if you stay longer to eat again but as we got 3 days only we will try other places...
