Menu is good. Food is good. But I lost it all when I saw a cat pee in front of me. There were cats all around... very disturbing. When I screamed after one cat trying to climb on me, the waiter coolly said that they might be drawn to the table by the smell of fish. Overall an awful experience... more

Brilliant, romantic Nam. Not cheap, but full of character and beautifully done. Although the Nonya Platter is good and does justice to sampling local dishes, we found the best were the tapas available at lunchtime (full of variety and freshly made) and also the Nonya Laksa, which I would have liked spicier, but then I am from the Far East.... more

Went here 5 years ago and loved it- went back this time- not so good. The service was average- the food quite good- but extremely overpriced- the desserts were fantastic though, but about £9 a go. I think they are trying too hard to be classy- and have lost the atmosphere somewhere. more

For me Bon Ton, was kind of surreal. The Atmosphere is fantastic, there are old traditional Malayhouses around the property. Which are completly renovated and now serve as private Bungalows. In the middle there is a small but stretched pool. The mainhouse hosts the Restaurant and a Souvenir shop. The Food and the Drinks in the Restaurants were fantastic, this... more

Nothing short of perfect is what we thought of this restaurant. Everything gets a 5 star...food, service & atmosphere. We spent 5 nights in Langkawi and had most of our lunches and dinners at the Nam or next door at the Straits clubhouse. My personal favourite was the Laksa...amazing fresh clean flavours! We had the Nonya platter one night and... more

The first time I came to Nam, it was in December 2007. I had the most wonderful dinner which made me too full to finish my dessert. Amir, who is in charge of the restaurant came to me and asked, "Why are you not finishing your dessert? Is it not good? Should I bring another one for you?" From that... more

We went to this restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I can honestly say that this was the best meal we had whilst in Langkawi. We started with the Greek platter. This had two types of bread and several delicious dips, olive oil, hummous, pesto, etc. It was all very fresh and tasty. I had the seafood platter and my... more

Nam restaurant at Bon Ton Resort was one of the best dining experiences I have had in years. The staff were wonderful, very friendly, with excellent knowledge of food, wine and their menu. Yes, there are lots of cats, but they are actually quite cute - and I'm a dog person! We started with a cocktail while we watched the... more

We have stayed at Bonton & Temple tree many times and even though we try other restaurants on the island NAM truly outshines them all. I found NAM by reading a review on line about NAM where the writer, from The Times I seem to remember, claimed the mash potato was the best he'd eaten in the world! I have... more
