Mum A-roi restaurant is a road-side restaurant, on a very quiet road. It's local style, nothing fancy.
The food I had (gaprow gai sab kai dow, prawn spring rolls and a mango smoothie) was all very tasty and nicely presented.
The prices are a little high; the service was fine.

A real gem of a restaurant! Family owned, authentic Thai food restaurant. It’s as close as you could get to being invited for dinner at a Thai family home! We stayed for a week at a nearby resort and after trying out all the other options we kept coming back here for the best food!
We tried multiple items from the menu over 7 days and they were all very good. I personally enjoyed their curries the most! Everything is fresh, with quality ingredients, and prepared right when you order.
The family that owns and manages the place (multigenerational) is super nice, very cordial and welcoming. They really make you feel like a guest in their home.
My wife and I enjoyed this place very much and we definitely return when we are back in the area!

One of the better restaurants we have been to. Nice People. Location is next to few resorts, and food is better here then at resort (and 1/3 the price). Atmosphere is the typical Thai place with bright lighting. All you need. Try the pancakes. They are supper fluffy and not to sweet.

Lovely family run Thai-Food Restaurant with super tasty dishes and the most friendly staff. We went at least 8 times during our stay. Great value for money and the best out of the nearby options. The family runs the restaurant together across two generations and they are super welcoming.
The Panang and the red Curries are wonderful. Also try the Pineapple-fried-rice! We loved absolutely loved it.

Pineapple Fried Rice
A delightful restaurant operated by a kind family. We ate there on three occasions. We absolutely loved their chicken with basil, curries, and mango sticky rice – true favorites! The service was exceptional. Although my son initially ordered an orange Fanta, they were temporarily out of stock. However, to our surprise, the grandfather hopped on his scooter, dashed to the store, and returned with a Fanta in no time! Truly great service that made our visit even more memorable. Highly recommended!

So yummy, the garlic pepper fish is probably the best thing I’ve ever eaten. Thai tea hits too

Super nice owner and great food. We stayed in a hotel for 10 days around the corner and ate at Mum a Roy almost everyday. Curries, Pad Thai, Papaya salad, spring rolls, mango sticky rice...everything was delicious. In addition, the owner's family is so friendly and welcoming and kind. We will definitely return if we come back to Koh Samui!
