I just ate and drank here, and while some was good, I had a few issues. The potato "crostini" (as I believe they were called, which aren't actually crostini) were bland and unseasoned. The mashed potatoes were in deathly need of some salt and pepper, or some spices like chives. While labeled "vegetarian" they seemed to be done in the... More

I'm sure people have a good time here but we turned around after getting the worst attitude of the hostess. She ignored us completely (no idea why, i think because we had no reservation) until other (hotel?)guests who came behind us pointed out we were there waiting. She then aggressively pointed out we had to pay 1000 baht per person... More

Dear reviewer. We take guest complaints very seriously and have conducted a complete investigation into your comments. Since your concerns were about a brunch and since you visited in May, it must have been last Sunday the 5th of May that you visited. I spoke with the hostess team and their manager and they reported no discussions with any guests... More

On Sunday Beach Republic organizes their famous branch, featuring spectacular food and splendidly mixed cocktails. This is one of the things you need to try at least once during your stay in Koh Samui!

After a few years away, finally made it back to Samui last week and decided to take the family to check out the Sunday Brunch at Beach Republic in Lamai. First off, walking into the resort, the setting was fantastic! Right on the beach with a couple of nice swimming pools and a pretty good sized crowd even at noon.... More

I watched for this post and never normally comment either way on line ..BUT... I witnessed this arrogant American, and rarely have I seen a customer with such an ignorant attitude. I was shocked. The manager was actually a founder and did indeed do everything in his power to defuse the situation .... This guy spoilt a lot of people's... More

Advertized as Samui's Best Brunch with beef,lamb,turkey, sea bass, foie gras station, Fine De Clair oysters, Maine Lobster, Alaskan King Crab, etc, etc. On arrival I checked the buffet - Maine lobster consisted of a dime sized piece of lobster in a thimble sized glass. Alaskan King Crab - sorry we didn't get delivery today but we have blue crab.... More

The review above is defamatory and contains many untruths. We do not know what has motivated this person to write this. The only valid complaint is that there was no Alaskan King Crab displayed as our supplier was unable to obtain adequate quantities this week - and we only serve fresh produce on our fine buffet. Being unable to obtain... More

Went for Sunday brunch and there was decent food but highly, highly overpriced, not even water is included in the price other than one drink of your choice. We have been to Sunday brunches all over asia for the past 13 years and this was by far the most expensive one. That is to compare with an all inclusive champagne... More

Dear reviewer. In terms of your comments regarding this staff member, you are absolutely right. I take the blame for hiring this young man. I gave him a chance and hoped he could grow and mature with this very important position. Unfortunately, he looked very good on paper, but in practice has a lot to learn. Actually prior to the...
