We came here to eat, whilst staying at the Andaman. The food was beautiful with large serves. I had prawn and crab cakes for entree followed by a steamed snapped dish for main. It was superb, I am still thinking about how yummy it was with the perfect amount of spice. So big I couldn't even finish (no matter how... More

Loved the food. Was pricey (but what would you expect at the Datai?) but the food was excellent and the service was great. Lovely location, surrounded by treetops. More

We dined here one night while staying at The Andaman and the staff completely revived our sense of service in Langkawi. Right from our arrival everyone was so friendly and welcoming. At least two members of the team engaged us in conversation and gave us tips for out next days activities. As it was raining when we left one gentleman... More

It is amongst the best thai food we've ever had. The head chef has been taught how to cook by his mum; this is traditional thai food at its best. Try the wagyu beef massaman, and the soft shell crab. More

We have just returned from Langkawi where we stayed for about a week. We stayed at the Andaman (as we always do) but we eat at the Datai - Thai Pavillion. The food cannot be faulted. The chef does Michelin Star quality food. The ingredients that he uses are so fresh and full of flavour - it leaves you wanting... More

we stayed at the Andaman and decided to walk over next door's Pavilion for dinner because we read great TA reviews and if we were to get a bit tipsy, which we always do, we would just walk back along the beach. Knowing that the restaurant is part of the 5 star Datai, we expected that it would be pricey... More

We were really looking forward to our trip to the Thai Restaurant at The Datai as Thai food is our favourite cuisine. We were really disappointed with both the starter (prawn soup) and the main course (Thai red curry, lamb curry). The food is distinctly average, and I would happily pay RM100-200 for this quality of food, but to be... More
