Chinese restaurant Phuket Town
Working hours: Mon 11:30 - 21:30; Wed - Sun: 11:30 - 21:30

The intimate restaurant Lhong Khao is located in a historic building in the Old Town, where Thai-Chinese cuisine is showcased at its brightest.

The menu is built around seafood, curries, and rice. The standout dishes are the crab curry and the soft-shell crab — crispy, not overly oily, and generously portioned. Other strong options include duck, fried rice with shrimp and garlic, tom yum, and massaman curry with beef or pumpkin. There are also vegetarian options: tofu, vegetables, spring rolls, noodles, and rice — dishes can easily be adapted to your preferences.

Another big plus is the service: it’s simple and friendly, the staff help with choices, and create a cozy, home-like atmosphere. During peak hours it can get noisy and you may have to wait for your order, but that doesn’t take away from the overall experience at this Chinese restaurant.
