I was very disappointed with my experience with this restaurant/bar. I visited during the day had a not so good meal. I went again at night for some drinks and had less then pleasant experience. This place is right on the beach in Kamala, which has amazing sunsets, but it isn't the only place on the beach.

Situated at the southern end of Kamala Beach Phuket is Smile 2 beach restaurant. Smile 1 is a little further up the northern end of the beach (same owner). A delightful little thatch hut offering delicious Thai meals, seafood, european and a selection of pasta dishes together with drinks and cocktails. While in Kamala you won't be disappointed with Smile... More

This is a review for the Smile 2 restaurant at the southern end of Kamala beach. After trying several different bars and restaurants over the first few days of our holiday and not being inspired, we were very pleased when we came across Smile 2 and ate/drank there for the rest of our holiday. We were drawn in initially for... More

A good, varied menu, try the barbeque, it´s very good! We started the night here with a drink to the sunset, then ordered some food and we could be seated for two-three hours and enjoying it very much. I would rank this one a number one on the beach. There are several more restaurants right on the beach which are... More

the king prawns in front looked delicious, but getting them served they were tasteless and dry. A pity, because restaurant ' smile' on the Kamala beach looked very promising. We also ordered two prawns each and got three instead. Of course we were charged for the weight.

Smile is one of the furthest restaurants as you walk north along the beach front. We had a very pleasant meal here and the BBQ prawns were very good. You can choose the seafood you want which was laid out on ice and looked very fresh. Good selection of dishes overall including Thai and European. The service was welcoming and... More

Had the same dish, cashew chicken, several times, and each time it was different - in taste, ingredients, and portion size. Different cooks? Generally OK beach food, competitive prices.
