Costa Grill is a restaurant on Rawai Beach with a European character and a hint of Corsican atmosphere. The space is tastefully designed: soft lighting adds a hint of romance, pleasant music plays in the background, and everything feels neat and well cared for. You can choose to sit on the veranda or in the quieter, air‑conditioned dining room.
One of the restaurant’s biggest strengths is its extensive menu. It covers pizzas and pastas, salads, Thai dishes, and Corsican specialties such as charcuterie boards, cheeses, and well-executed desserts. The pizzas stand out in particular — especially the truffle and burrata options — with generous portions that are genuinely filling. Meat is cooked with confidence to the requested doneness, staying juicy and tender, and overall the ingredients taste fresh and well balanced.
The restaurant also earns points for its attentive service. Staff are quick, helpful with recommendations, and keep an eye on the table without being intrusive. The welcome is warm, and the owners are actively engaged with guests; switching to French here is easy. The bar offers a strong selection of drinks — especially wines and sparkling wines — and the cocktails are reliably good as well.
Prices lean toward European levels and may feel above average. A few pasta and pastry items can be hit-or-miss, but the overall standard of the food and the atmosphere remains high.
