"First time at Koh Samui & the Monkey. The service was wonderful. The waiter was constantly around as in come check on me and my bf.
Refilled our water, took alway our plates, always asking if we needed anything else in a non-annoying way. He was very nice.

The food was really good.
I might not get all the names but I will describe them.

We started with "bags of gold" which was shrimp and chicken wrapped and deep fried, comes with a sweet dipping sauce. Really good
also with the BBQ pork sticks
For our entree's I got the salmon in yellow curry cause and my bf got sauteed shrimp dish
both very yummy
then we ordered the 20 minute dessert called "Samui honey toast". It was DELICIOUS!

I went for dinner and the setting was very NI"

"This is our new favorite Thai spot. A little on the pricey side - but they have wine flights available and the food is wonderful! Can get a little noisy at times (lots of people seem to bring their kids - but gives it a neighborhood vibe). The decor is more upscale than most Thai/Southern Asian restaurants, would probably give extra points for that if you are looking for a good first date spot."

"We came to celebrate Valentine's Day with friends, and it was wonderful! The tasting menu was great, and the wine pairings were pleasing to everyone at the table. We were serious mango-philes--enjoyed the spicy mango salad appetizer, mango beef entree, and sticky rice with mango dessert. Also the kitchen was kind enough to honor a special request for pad-see-ew, which wasn't on the menu. Noodles were cooked to perfection, not too oily, and broccoli was perfectly al dente."

"Having been there several times before, it is apparent they have changed the presentation of some of their menu items. Thus they have become just another good Thai rest. but now overpriced. Sadly, I will place it at the bottom of the list of those more reasonably priced..."

"After reading through several reviews, we chose Koh Samui & The Monkey for lunch as a place to meet a friend I had not seen in 38 years. We were not disappointed. The food, no matter what we ordered, was excellent, and the portions were right. At 2:00 pm, the place was not crowded, and we could converse quite easily."
