To be honest we had better food in smaller less expensive restaurants on Phuket

The reviews are definitely outdated! Saw signs to White Orchid advertising their TripAdvisor rating and made note to go there for dinner during our stay at Kamala. It wasn't even open on a Sunday night and looked like a shack of a place! What a waste of a 200 baht ride as it was dark and the taxi driver had... More

Thaifood was excellent. Drinks (Maithai, Pina Colada)contained alcohol more than it would be necessary.

I have waited a month to post this 2nd review as per trip advisor policy. I posted a very positive review for the White Orchard following our first visit whilst on a trip in March. A keen reader of trip advisor for recommendations I feel it important to post my update review after our second visit on the same trip.... More

Had some lunch snacks two days ago. The food wasn't bad, but the description of the venue is very different. It is now located on the ground floor of a building site. I had looked for the White Orchid on Google's Street View. I kept coming up with a resort under construction. It was true. There are some tables on... More

As regular visitors to the Cape Sienna we have always planned to visit The White Orchid but never quite got around to it. Having read all the positive reviews we were determined on this trip to give it a try and we were so pleased we did. Firstly Angela is an absolute delight, so friendly and an excellent hostess. We...

We have returned to the White Orchid year after year every February. The service is always very friendly and Angela will do anything for you and make you feel very welcome. It's a very relaxed atmosphere and a lovely place to chill out. There are lovely views across the ocean in a quiet area of Kamala. Its a small family... More

If you want something a bit rustic and a bit different this place is great. After reading all the reviews we were expecting big things, it just didn't happen for us...... We were seated on the beach which was nice (although some rubbish removal would be good). The scenery is wonderful overlooking the beach. The host is a really lovely... More

My friends and i were stayin nearby at Cape Sienna and because we've heard so much about the White Orchid we thought we'd better go the night we arrived. Just a few minutes walk away, in a serene location was the restaurant itself. We sat indoors and were entertained with GREAT FOOD by Angela! All the items that were mentioned... More
