Noisy happening little place with most tables full and tables spilling out onto a large lane way. We found the service very slow but all four of us enjoyed our meals and drinks. Prices were extremely reasonable and will definitely go back for more meals on our next visit.

We ate lunch at this restaurant nearly every day, the food is really fresh and even the international food tastes good (some of the patong restaurant's don't know how to get all the flavours right, but at least they are trying). They make amazing fruit smoothies and everything is super cheap!

I have been to Patong on several occasions, and try and eat at different restaurants, but I ALWAYS grab at least one meal at this place. I can't say what their non-Thai food offering is like, as I always have Thai food here, which is always tasty. I will be back next time!

This place has a huge menu filled with international foods. We were the only people dining here in the mid afternoon. 2 not very positive signs. The food tasted good. I got the special new zealand mussels. Shortly after eating lunch here I started to feel very sick. I would avoid this place.

I do not believe this comment, We are one of the busiest restaurants in Patong. We serve about 14 Mussel dishes each day and the food is fresh daily. Afternoons are quiet but that is not a reflection that we are a quiet restaurant, We serve around 300 meals each day at the present time, double that in high season.... More

We have been to this restaurant a number of times over the years we have visited Phuket & are never disappointed! This time we tried the Massaman curry (chicken) & the squid chilli salad. Both dishes were delicious although sometimes I forget Thai spicy is über spicy especially compared to what is considered 'spicy' in some European countries. I nearly... More

Thanks for choosing the Sweet Restaurant and for the kind comments. We try hard to meet your expectations with genuine Thai Food with a little Western food when you need it.
