Food was very average and waiters not very polite or pleasant to deal with. Obviously they have a lot of passing by traffic and don't really care about you once you're seated. Too bad as it could be a great place.

Of all the places we ate on Koh Tao - this was the place where we always came back. The staff were fantastic! They always had a smile, and a pleasant demeanor - and the food was always consistent. Very excellent, and highly recommend.

Love this place, had two amazing dinners of freshly cooked/BBQ seafood, prawns, squid & whole snapper & it's was all great. They also make a great Som Tam (green papaya salad). The place is always busy but have lots of tables so give it a try. Service is great too, so ignore the whiners on here!!

Its a buffet style fruit and cereal etc the area was dirty so we passed and ordered the egg and bacon from the kitchen. The table to our left was covered in 100s of flys!!!! It... More

Obviously they are into profit only. I ordered an omelette and coffee for breakfast. I have never seen such a tiny omelette in my life. And yet it was raw inside. It came with one slice of tomato and one slice of cucumber. The toast came with one packet of jam. The coffee was undrinkable. Service was very good but... More

We tried due to the generous buffet and seemingly great atmosphere. Unfortunately the food did not live up to the quality it should have.

We went to this restaurant to have a nice breakfast. We asked the whaiter for a medium cooked egg. The first time he came out with an almost completely raw egg. So we asked him friendly if he could give us another egg that is cooked a little longer. That was already a strange question for him. He came back... More

We didn't eat here during our week stay as there is so much choice, apart from the gala dinner on New Years eve which was included in the room rate. I must say the food surprised me on the upside, it really was excellent. It's full every night, I can only imagine the food and the relative cheap prices are... More

All you can eat pizza costs 198baht and runs four nights a week. My boyfriend and I went on a Friday night, restaurant was buzzing and staff were very polite and welcoming.

We went here twice for dinner. Pretty good happy hour drink deals (100 baht per drink). Food was pretty good, not the best in Kao Tao. It is a fun lively atmosphere.
