Taste Koh Samui

We’re Pick, Areesa, and Stephanie, three food lovers with a deep connection to this beautiful island. Pick was born right here on Koh Samui, Areesa is originally from Phuket but has called Samui her island of the heart since 2018, and Stephanie has been living here since 2014. Together, we’ve explored every corner of this island, and we’re thrilled to share our favorite dining spots with you.
 
This guide is all about food—restaurants and street food, to be precise. Whether you're craving fresh seafood, comforting Thai classics, or hidden gems off the beaten path, you’ll find our personal recommendations here. These are places we love and visit regularly.
 
None of the restaurants featured in this guide paid to be included, and we accepted no invitations or free meals. Our goal is to provide you with an authentic culinary experience, not a curated advertisement.
 
We believe food is the best way to truly understand a place, and Koh Samui has so much to offer. Whether you’re enjoying a casual meal at a local street food stall or a special dinner with a sea view, each dish tells a story about this island and its people.
