About Nikita's Beach Restaurant

A seafront restaurant at the southern end of Rawai Beach, shaded by old trees hung with paper lanterns. The front row of tables sits right on the edge: at high tide the sea runs in underneath them. The long menu covers Thai standards, fresh seafood, pizza and pasta, and there is a wine list; the kitchen stays open through the afternoon. The Rawai seafood market and pier are a short walk north.

As the record has it

Booking

Ask for the front row on arrival: those tables go first.

Suits
