Great vegan buffet

Very cheap tasty buffet. Very friendly lady cooks the food. There are numerous options to try. Rice is fresh and buffet food is decent (not that oily as well but very salty) . Water available. Highly recommend this place!

Tasty and cheap as

This humble little place blew us away, we did the all you can eat which was priced way below what it was worth (please give more if you can!) massive range of traditional Thai food - we left very full and happy

Pros: Beautiful kind staff , Excellent food

All you can eat!

Writing while still here waiting to digest because I ate too much! 😳
I saw the magic red and yellow sign with the number 17 (actually เจ ‘jay’ but it’s so similar!) from the street going somewhere else and I asked the driver to stop because it looked like an authentic Thai restaurant, and when I was there I noticed they had the HappyCow sticker so I immediately felt at home.
Well this is actually what it seems, to be at dinner by friends or relatives. The woman who manages the restaurant is friendly and gave me an explanation for every dish. Tonight there were 9 dishes plus the steamed rice. Oh, and she brought me a dessert made of banana and coconut milk.
The food was tasty and the price unbeatable. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Koh Samui!

All you can eat vegan fun

Buffets are usually scary and have nothing good, but this one was ~12 different dishes to try - all vegan. It wasn’t the most amazing food I’ve ever had, but it was tasty and at a very good price. Recommend trying out!

Best Jay place!

This place is definitely one of the best, if not the best, Jay place I've visited in Thailand. The buffet style where you serve yourself is win-win: less service for them, you get to try what and how much you want. A tad bit of this, a bit more of that... The price is very fair. A bit more expensive than other Jay places, but you get more variety and the food is good.

Lovely place and wow food!

Came here two days in a row, the food was so good! And the lady so sweet! Situated on a busy road, but once you start eating, you forget all about it. Only 120 for an all-you-can-eat buffet. Free water too. We sat there ooh-ing and aah-ing about the food we just had and the sweet lady came to bring us desert! ❤️ Must visit when you’re on Koh Samui! Btw, it’s open every day, even though google maps said it wasn’t.

Pros: The food!, The price, The sweetest lady ever

Cons: Busy road

Top of the list of restaurants!

This place is an absolute MUST to eat at when on Koh Samui. Unpretentious authentic, delicious Thai food. Extremely good value - although I guess most people would willingly over pay like we did, on the 'eat all you want' buffet with around 12 dishes to try.

Pros: Amazing selection , Incredible value , Lovely staff

Friendly, but spicy

Nice buffet, but for me was very spicy.
Would be nice to have near each option name and level of spicyness. extremely friendly stuff, take away available.
if you like thai food, you most likely would love this place.

Level of spiciness isn’t a thing.. it’s Thailand, so they cook the food as locals would eat it. and the place isn’t aimed at western tourists.

Amazing food. Authentic.

Everything. Food is spicy, as they eat it. Not just for tourists, it’s a 120TBH buffet that locals also enjoy.
The service was great too, the women working there are so kind. Around 8 different options.
They offer cold filtered water for free.

Best vegan buffet

I went here twice and will come again. This is my favorite vegan buffet option on Koh Samui.
„All you can eat“ from up to 14 different and delicious pots from less spicy to spicy. Both times I came here I got a banana dessert afterwards. For 120,- BAHT (ca. 3,70 EUR) only.
Great price/value. Beware of overeating! 😅

Pros: all you can eat buffet, À la carte, super friendly and warm service

Cons: noisy street (but that’s kind of everywhere)

Yummy, affordable buffet

We came to enjoy the buffet and it did not disappoint. Delicious flavors and SO MANY dishes to try. The buffet is also such a good deal, just 120 per person. Very welcoming vibe. Highly recommend, come hungry!

We didn’t order off the menu (just did buffet) but those dishes looked great too. Might check those out if we’re back someday.

(Very close to the night market, along the main road.)

One of our local favorites!

Khunnay is a warm ember in the veg•n scene on Koh Samui. It offers both a standard buffet and an a la carte menu with several unusual options. My favorite was the fried somtam. I also enjoyed the pumpkin stir fry. Fresh juices and smoothies are also on offer.

Service is very warm and friendly, and basic English is spoken. Prices are reasonable, especially for the buffet.

It's conveniently located just a few dozen steps from the west entrance of the Central Festival mall.

Enjoy!

Authentisch kein hipster teuer veganes essen, hier wird aus Überzeugung Vegan gekocht! Die Mitarbeiter*innen sind sehr freundlich. Hervorzuheben für mich ist, das wenn man sich beim all you can eat Buffet zu viel auf den Teller packt und es nicht isst muss mann hundert Bath extra zahlen.

Pros: Vegan all you can eat buffet, Cheap , Friendly service

Great vegan classic Thai food

This place is a decent size, and the location is sweet, right across from the water. The staff speaks minimal English but enough to order.
The menu is in English and has pictures, see my photos.

One of us got the all you can eat vegan buffet. - it was so/so, I’m not a fan of buffets so I’m a hard nut to crack. My mate said it was worth the exploration and a good option for someone looking for a variety with one plate.

We also ordered:

Stir fry Chinese morning glory- always good to me, I eat it at every meal in Southeast Asia and it makes me feel like a superhero!

Vegan Thai green curry- very good

Vegan Massaman curry-my 17 year old daughter loved it.

Mushroom Tom Yum soup.- delicious

2 burgers w/ fries (they call it a burger) it was a patty made from soy I think.- 14 year old boy loved it, 10 year old boy didn’t love or hate it.

Owner was very kind, staff was sweet.
Restroom was clean.
