The Zea

Reviewed By GaryWhite2013

The Zea is a part of the Sai Kaew Beach Resort, probably the biggest and most up-market resort on Had Sai Kaew, Koh Samed. The resort spreads between Sai Kaew Beach and another small bay to the north east and has recently been extensively added to. Stayed there years ago on a good deal from one of the accommodation websites, but have not been able to get such a deal again and the rooms are rather expensive.The Zea, however, is worth a visit for many reasons:* Impressive. new decor that provides quite a stunning setting for dinner;* Great location right on Sai Kaew Beach - they even have a special "sand pit" area where they will set up tables for you if you want, fully adjacent to the beach itself;* Well-staffed by relatively efficient an friendly staff - although the fact it is the most up-market spot on the beach comes through at times;* Live entertainment by way of two singers/musicians;* An extensive menu of both western and Thai food - have sampled both on three visits - actually tended to like the western food better than the Thai, but both are good nevertheless.Of course, because it is part of the most upmarket resort on the beach, it is more expensive, but three of us ate there for less than $100 - one drinker and two non-drinkers.They have an adjacent cocktail bar, and you can have your drinks served at a seating area on top of the restaurant.Try the flaming cocktail - sorry, can't remember the name but a bit if a hoot!Re the ratings below, no idea if they have delivery! I presume they do lunch - not so sure about brunch. I would imagine The Zea is also the breakfast venue for Sai Kaew Beach resort.Get tables/seating away from the entertainment as it can be a bit loud.I would not really take children there.Overall, definitely go if you are spending any time on Koh Samed at Sai Kaew Beach or nearby.

Nongnooch Seafood

Reviewed By ratchayan

I have been there since 1992 with my friend whose hometown is in Klaeng and this seafood restaurant is her family favorite. After then every time I am in Rayong I take my friends to Nongnooch and all of them like it.The seafood is fresh especially steamed crab that you can feel how fresh it is by its taste. Itbis not only the freshness but how they cook is also matter. Stirred-fried Shellfish with basil or with chilly paste is also recommended. By the way, it is a local restaurant by the sea, don’t expect good decoration or super clean things. Mosquitoes always annoy me when eating.

FinSushi

Reviewed By David B

Fin Sushi Restaurant is a brand new Japanese restaurant in Rayong, and has opened with a month-long menu offering 50 percent discounts. So at the moment it is very popular.The restaurant is in a new building complex and is very clean and well appointed, with minimalist décor. The waiters are dressed in blue Fin uniforms, and Thai staff are busy behind a long counter cutting fish and assorted seafood. You can either sit at a table or sit on a stool at the counter and watch the staff prepare your order.Fin is going to need some fine tuning if it is to survive once the discounts end and the full price menu hits in, for the full price menu is right at the high end of the scale, particularly as it is in provincial Rayong and not metropolitan Bangtkok. My partner and I ate lunch there today and paid more than we would have paid for a similar full price meal at Fuji Restaurant at the other end of town.There is an over-offering of salmon on the menu at the expense of other varieties of fish; the salmon sashimi was cut in thick wedges, and needs to be more finely sliced; and the uni sushi advertised on its website was not on the menu. There is also an over-emphasis on sushi v. sashimi, which being a sashimi lover I noticed immediately.Despite this, the restaurant is trying hard and the staff are polite and quick with the service.it does not take credit cards, another drawback, particularly if you are not expecting to pay cash for what turns out to be an expensive meal.If you are not local, you may find Fin hard to find. Google "Fin Sushi Rayong" and it will take you to a site with a map which has a search engine. Type in your location in Rayong and it will come up with a detailed map of how to find Fin.(Note for TripAdvisor Reviewer: I have a photo. How come there is no place here to post it?)

Je Tai Pu Pen Seafood

Reviewed By PilotMike2009

I had an OK dinner at this restaurant in October 2013. The food was OK, the service desultory, the crowds noisy, and -- most distressingly -- the aroma of sewage coming up from the ocean across the street. I guess this would be OK if I had a big group or a birthday party, but for anything nicer I would go elsewhere. Also -- lots of construction going on all around the restaurant; lots of street vendors annoying you while you eat. Who needs the hassles?

Yindee Seafood

Reviewed By David B

Bordering the Gulf of Thailand, Rayong Province is a rich source of fresh fish and seafood, and there are many seafood restaurants in Rayong City and along the many beaches that stretch for more than 100 km.Last night was His Majesty the King's 88th Birthday, a time of great celebration in Thailand, so we decided to head down to Mae Rumpueng Beach, 12 km out of town, for a seafood dinner.We have tried many of the seafood restaurants there before, so decided to try something new.We turned up trumps with Yindee, the first seafood restaurant you come to on your right hand side once you pass the long wooden pier that juts out into the Gulf.We had a plate of fresh oysters, served with chili jam and crispy fried shallots; a plate of "blood" shellfish, which I avoid but which my Thai friends eat by the bucketful; crisy fried squid; prawns stir fried in soy sauce and tossed with julienned ginger and fresh Chinese celery; and a hot pot of sour and spicy fish soup, using the popular sea bass.With cokes, a bottle of beer, water and ice, the bill came to 1,200 baht, a very reasonable amount for the number of dishes we had ordered.By the way, you can inspect the fish and seafood before you order - and the fish and crabs are still live, swimming in salt water tanks at the entrance to the restaurant.

Paya Seafood

Reviewed By Sweden_Lena019

This is by far the best seafood restaurant on the beach. It is fanatastic. Their food is amazing the service is quick, as long as you know what you want. As a "farang" it is probably best to point on what you want. Take in a couple of different choices and share! Enjoy a really good fireshow at around 7 so sit close to the beach!

Laem Charoen Restaurant is usually packed at night with locals dining by the bay/riverside. We had crab eggs, fresh scallops, fried sea-bass and hot spicy kaeng som soup all of which are delicious and well-prepared and go well with the fried rice. Reasonably priced with attentive service.

Tamnanpar Restaurant

Reviewed By David B

Close friends we had not seen for a long time were visiting us from Bangkok so, out to impress with the best that Rayong has to offer, we took them to Tamnanpar Restaurant for dinner.Tamnanpar is set in a spectacular "rain forest" garden, with tall stands of trees, ferns, and tropical plants growing in profusion amidst lakes and cascading waterfalls.At night it is underlit, to highlight the splendours of the garden.Needless to say, our Bangkok friends were impressed.We had a spicy seafood salad, a deep fried snakehead fish with green mango salad, large river prawns in a tamarind sauce, and stir fried mixed vegetables.We took our own wine and were not charged corkage.Tamnanpar is not the cheapest place in town. Our bill for four came to Baht 3,400, but we thought it was worth if for a special occasion.
