I've only went to Phuket for appetizers. I got the chicken sate, $8.25. The chicken was charred on too much of the sate. They need to be more careful of the how long the sate sit on the grill. The chicken was a bit tough and wasn't tender. You needed the peanut sauce to add some moisture. Sure they gave you six skewers and each skewer had a lot of chicken. But the chicken was just OK.
Service was good. Nice and friendly people.
I know judging a restaurant just on appetizers is like judging a book by it's cover. I did see many good dishes being served at other tables. I will come back to try some of their other dishes.
