We read up on the reviews for Cafe 69, tapped it into the sat nav and found it down on the left of Bophut Ave. We arrived and it was completely empty. Hang on a sec, Saturday night, 8pm, surely not the right place? - Turned out the local night market was on and everyone had gone there, but I... More

The food is fabulous, the owner and chef, Vivien, is the sweetest host we have ever met!! Everything about this place is just right and original and unique! Go and try, I assure you that you won't regret!!

We went to café 69 3 times during our 8 night stay. I tried snapper for the first time & loved it. Viviane the owner & chef personally recommended this dish. He cooks ut in a coconut curry sauce with mango. DELICIOUS. Viviane comes out if the kitchen to meet all diners & makes you feel very welcome. We just... More

Popped in here on our first night in Bophut and met Vivian who took us through the menu. We booked for a couple of nights later and were not disappointed! We both loved the famous curry dumplings which are fried, not steamed, the filling was sublime. I went for more of a tapas main and had the chicken sushi and... More

Believe all you read about Café 69 here. The atmosphere, music, food and staff were all top notch and we could not fault a thing. We were only in Koh Samui for a night and it a pity as we were eager to return the following night, but time was against us. Try the papaya salad with baby crab…orgasmic! TIP:... More

Wonderful thai food!!! . Creative flair by master chef Vivian. We had our toddler there and Vivian whipped up a flavoursome and nutritious chicken and vegetable congee no problems at all ( which our little one adored...). Besides the impromptu catering for a child, the array of dishes shared amongst 3 adults were all just Devine. The chicken pie with... More

This funky little restaurant right at the edge of the busy main road in Bophut has great reviews. I can tell you without reservation they don't do it justice and I won't be able to either. I am a foodie from a great foodie city and I travel extensively and eat well. The taste sensations at 69 place it at... More

We remember gladly the papaya salad rolls, they're delicious: the best papaya salad we had in Thailand so far! The menu is all made of Thai dishes reinterpreted, and it's surely an interesting choice when in Samui. Pity for the location, along the main road. However, the interior is originally decorated and doesn't try to mimic a fake original-Thai restaurant.
