We hadn't read the reviews before eating at Massaman one night in November. After a couple disappointing meals in Ao Nang, we were pleasantly surprised. We loved everything about it, very friendly, food was great, as was the service. Try the Tom Yum, the Massaman, the Pumpkin curry (had dreams about it after we left). We found it to be... More

We ate in Massaman one evening during a three night stay in Aonang. The food was decent but the service was not great. It felt very much like the staff didn't really want us there. There was no smiling, no conversation, starters and mains brought out at the same time and the lady waitress standing over me as I dared... More

We spent two weeks in Ao Nang and had a variety of food in several different restaurants, overall this was the best. Very simple, genuine Thai food provided by a family-run restaurant, always busy with a very nice atmosphere. Generous portions and our favourite was the chicken massaman, a must try!!

Beef massaman tough and chewy, pad thai average, but best morning glory and tom kha ever tasted. its a bit of the beach and raised above the street but nice views. worth the walk away from the beach esplanade with all the indian and overpriced pad thai restaurants.

Many locals will recommend this place and we can see why.. it's good local food at a very cheap price.. nothing fancy just good food.

Had the beef massaman last night and it was out of this world. Don't leave Ao Nang without trying it.

I've been to about 15 different restaurants in Ao Nang - all of them genuinely Thai, and this one is close to the bottom of the list. Their much praised Massaman was almost as bad as the ones you get in Thai restaurants in Europe, and their Tom Yam was oily, lacked its most basic taste elements, and hardly spicy... More
