Boathouse

It's all very glam at the luxurious, beachside Boathouse, one of Phuket's most respected restaurants. The Thai/Mediterranean food (garlic-grilled tiger prawns, lamb-shank massaman, Australian-beef-tenderloin carpaccio) is fabulous, the wine list famously expansive, the service attentive and the sea views sublime. Special sharing platters are prepared at your table, and there are daily-changing set menus (930B to 1750B).
