Pepenero Koh Samui - Ko Samui

One of the most amazing restaurants in Koh Samui. The food is the best of the best you can get from Italy, and the service is impeccable. Recommend anyone in Samui to try it while they are here!

Impeccable food and service in a relaxed yet elegant environment. Special care is taken in the preparation of each tasty dish. The pasta is superb but do not neglect the starters, especially the cheese. This is a restaurant that commands respect for their efforts and requires appreciate compensation for their success. They make provide a relaxing stress free ambiance and insist that their customers do their part to keep this environment for the patrons. A very pleasant evening and dinner attended by a congenial owner and his professional staff.

The food is amazing, seriously. The owner, who is heavily engaged in providing a great service and good conversations, knows how to keep the menu actually authentic according to Italian standards. The ingredients are of outstanding quality despite being far away from Italy. If you’re willing to pay a little more and eat quality Italian food with a great service, this is the place. You’ll not leave the place with a smile just because of the food, but also because of the laughter with the owner. Success guaranteed!

We began with a delicious drop of full-bodied red and a Campari Spritz and trusted the charming owner who recommended the gourmet bruschetta to start. Anchovies and wasabi are, it transpires, a match made in paradiso! We opted, for mains, for the seafood pasta and the mushroom with truffle-cream fettuccini. Both were exceptional. The pasta was fresh and perfectly cooked and the flavours were rich and authentic, acompanied by an excellent bottle of Chilean cabernet sauvignon and we were delighted! Impeccable. It was great to eat to such a well chosen soundtrack too: emphasis was on the 80s, from Italo-disco to British new-wave with a splash of funk and soul thrown in for good measure. The owner ended our perfect evening with a homemade limoncello; what a touch. The best place we ate on Samui by a distance. The food, the staff, the atmosphere and the tunes were impeccable. If you'd have told me we'd be eating authentic Italian cuisine on a Thai island talking about the pros and cons of George Lazenby and the state of international politics, I would've laughed. I'm not laughing anymore. We will be back. Thank you Pepenero.
