I guess Phi Phi is not the place to go if you are looking for an upscale dining experience, so I guess Garlic restaurant is as good as it gets on the island. We had two meals there and both were very enjoyable. Staff is friendly and ambiance is more comfortable as other places in town.

Cheap big Chang beer, huge menu with lots of options (and pictures that help you a lot!). Had seafood fried rice in the pineapple that tasted like barbecued seafood and smokey pineapple... Simply yummy! Boyfriend had noodles with beef and veggies, also good. 2 spring rolls for 50 baht!?! AMAZING! I didn't read any reviews before going to this restaurant,... More

Very average, thai green curry was bland, pad-si-ew again very bland. Was recommended in the lonely planet so we went along but very disappointing.

Food is great and the staff is fantastic. Very helpful and professional. Very good thai food all the time and the prices are very moderate. Never miss a chance to stop by!

We dropped by the little restaurant because my friend wanted pizza, which we waited 30 minutes. If the restaurant was to win an award, it would be for most miserable staff in Thailand. Not a word was spoken, not even a "hello" would not recommend!

We had very tasty Thai food at good prices for the island. The staff was lovely and we were provided with a mini learn-Thai guide which we put to practice in the restaurant. It is in center of town and therefore not the most romantic location but the place is always packed with people, which I presume confirms what we... More

My wife and I went to Garlic 1992 based on the reviews in tripadvisor. I wish we had stuck to other restaurants. When we sat down, we quickly ordered a lemon shake for me and orange shake for my wife. Then we ordered some food: fried calamari, massaman beef (for me) and fried rice with shimp paste for my wife.... More

We ate there three times during our three-day stay on Koh Phi Phi. The food was one of the best we had while in Thailand and also one of the cheapest. It wasn't very spicy which might suit the western palate. The staff was lovely. They give out sheets of paper with basic Thai expressions and recipes for some of... More

We had a great experience at Garlic, some of the best food we ate while on Phi Phi and know others who had similar experiences. We went on our first night in Phi Phi, we tried other places the rest of our stay but this was the best - in hindsight we should've gone back. Our favourite dish was the... More
