Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Seafood is the main reason for visiting and for repeat business. It's kept fresh until you order, so you can choose your own crab or squid instead of relying on whatever arrived from the truck that morning. A medium-sized lobster costs around 1,000 baht, which is reasonable for this part of Patong. Mantis shrimp aren't exactly cheap at 800 baht for four, so only order them if you're really keen to try them.

Aside from the aquariums, Thai culinary standards are perfectly executed. Papaya salad, chicken satay with thick chunks of meat, and kra pao that tastes like it was made for someone who eats it every week. Butter-fried crab and black pepper crab consistently receive praise in reviews. A Thai iced tea is the perfect accompaniment. Portions are generous, so don't order too much the first time. One guest complained that the lobster was a little dry, which is a risk when grilling shellfish, but not a common occurrence.
