Phu Quoc isn’t the first place you think of for Thai cuisine.

But that’s exactly why it’s surprising.

In the last two years, Thai food Phu Quoc has quietly levelled up — better ingredients, sharper flavors, and menus that don’t feel watered down for tourists anymore.

If you’re planning a few nights out, these are the places actually worth your time in 2026.

How This List Was Picked

We kept it simple.

Each place is based on:

  • Authentic flavors

  • Consistency

  • Ingredient quality

  • Atmosphere

  • Overall value

#1 Bua Siam — Best Overall

A small, cozy spot on Tran Hung Dao run by Thai owners. The menu stays focused — and that’s why it works.

The seafood red curry is the highlight: rich, balanced, and built around fresh local prawns and squid. Massaman, green curry, and Som Tam are all reliable.

  • Address: 167 Tran Hung Dao, Duong To

  • Hours: 10:00 – 22:00

  • Price: 200,000–300,000 VND/person

👉 If you only pick one place, this is it.

#2 SOI14 Thai — Best for a Nice Dinner

Located inside Dusit Princess Moonrise Resort, this is the most polished Thai dining option on the island.

Tom Yum Goong is aromatic and well-balanced, and the green curry is smooth without feeling heavy. The setting is calm, with sunset views included.

  • Address: Dusit Princess Moonrise, Tran Hung Dao

  • Hours: 11:30 – 22:30

  • Price: 300,000+ VND/person

#3 Bangkok House — Best for Groups

A reliable option in Duong Dong, especially for families or mixed groups.

The menu is wide, but still consistent. The Thai-style raw shrimp in spicy sauce is the standout — fresh, sharp, and properly seasoned. Tom Yum, Pad Thai, and spicy ribs are safe picks.

  • Address: 25 Mac Thien Tich, Duong Dong

  • Hours: 11:00 – 22:00

  • Price: 200,000–300,000 VND/person

Located at Sonasea (Bai Truong), this is the easiest option if you’re staying in the resort area.
