PRU

4,4 (340)
Fine dining restaurant Bang Tao
Working hours: Tue - Thu: 18:00 - 22:30; Fri - Sat: 12:00 - 15:00

Briefly and clearly – a Michelin-starred restaurant in Phuket. The first and only one on the island with a star. Many people have complaints about Michelin (or perhaps inflated expectations?), and to form your own precious opinion, there's only one option left – to taste the dishes from the menu.

PRU has a distinct reputation and a certain dress code. Beachwear won’t cut it here — you’ll need to swap your flip-flops for something more appropriate, no matter how trendy or high-end they are.

You can enjoy a great meal at any night market in Phuket, but PRU is the place to go for new culinary experiences. The chefs here create masterpieces from seemingly incompatible ingredients, and the open kitchen design lets you watch them at work — because let’s be honest, it’s always fascinating to watch professionals do their thing. And yes, it’s expensive — but Michelin is Michelin, even in Phuket.
