Family restaurant Bang Tao
Working hours: Mon - Sat: 10:00 - 21:00

Moldova Phuket in the Bang Tao area is a calm, unhurried spot serving home-style Moldovan food. It’s an easy place to settle in for a relaxed lunch, a family dinner, or a late snack. The dining room is neat, clean, and cozy, with traditional touches and no unnecessary fuss. Seating is available both indoors (air-conditioned) and outside.

The menu centers on hearty, comforting dishes from Moldova and Eastern Europe. You’ll find rich borscht and zeama, pelmeni and vareniki, juicy Chicken Kyiv, stuffed cabbage rolls, and stuffed peppers. House favorites include mamaliga with fish, placinte filled with salty white cheese, grilled mititei with a side, duck (leg or breast) with potatoes, and classic starters like eggplant spread and beet salad with mayonnaise. Portions are generous, ingredients are fresh, and the flavors are bold and straightforward.

For drinks, there’s “childhood-style” kvass and kompot, plus coffee (including lattes) and Moldovan sparkling wines such as Cricova and a classic-style brut. Service is fast and attentive, and the owner, Alexander, is often on hand to help you choose and make the place feel genuinely welcoming.

One practical note: payment may be cash only, so it’s best to bring cash with you.
