This little place is a true gem!!! From the moment the owner couple greeted us at the door, we could tell that this place is run with hearts and souls! And it did also show in the food. The sea bass was the best sea bass I've had in my life! Just a perfect amount of heat. The crispiness of... More

We had dinner at Barracuda after reading the other reviews on trip advisor, we weren't disappointed. The steak was absolutely lovely and cooked to perfection. The staff and Ferdinand made us feel very welcome. I hope we can fit another visit into this restaurant before we leave Samui. I would recommend booking as the restaurant was full the time we...

This is the best restaurant we managed to find during our two months on Samui. We had several of the set menues at upscale venues during the recent fine dining festival, but this place still came out on top. People rave about the lobster tortellini, but personally this was mildly disappointing for me as I found it slightly bland. However... More

This deserves 4.5 stars, but I want to keep them honest : ) The food is great but not 'oh my god'. Its classic, fresh. We had calamari / watermelon, duck breast and scallops. I was disappointed with the calamari / watermelon - so interesting, I had expected something special. But nobody sane would ever be sorry they came here.... More

Barracuda is just off the main street in Mae Nam and a short drive from our hotel in Bophut. The menu consists of European style dishes making use of the local and fresh produce, we feel in love with a Lobster Tortellini to start and our biggest recommendation would be to at least order this as an entree like we...

We were staying at a nearby 5* hotel where the food wasn't 5* so we turned to Trip Advisor to find alternative restaurants. Barracuda is a small restaurant located just off the main road in Mae Nam and whilst there isn't a view, the food and the staff more than make up for this. The menu has a sufficient variety... More
