igotworms Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 I saw this thread on the Samui board and I thought it was a good idea. I have yet to experience the fattening bliss of an excellent pizza. Anyone have suggestions? Where are the prime pizza joints? I've been living in Phuket for well over a year now and I have yet to find quality pizza. But I haven't really been looking and I bet there's some good stuff to be had. A good place in my area is Twins restaurant on Surin Beach. mmmm...pizza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godot Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 They have a pretty good one at P Bar (on Nanai). Some special sauce. And REAL pepperoni. Great for hangovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobAnderson Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 The very BEST on the island? TWO BROTHERS restaurant right on Surin Beach. Run by a great guy named Bow as in Ow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaigerd Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Pizza in P bar is ok!!! Used to go there, but now to busy and living in Kathu. Gerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tornado Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 I think for the best Pizza in Phuket, you have to go to Rawai.. Flinstones Bakery does very good pizza, but to find "great pizza" like we get back home is hard to find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 They also have a flinstone bakery in Patong. I dont know if they sell pizza also. Jimmy's lighthouse sells good pizza The pizza's at Pizzeria Hut 1 and 2 are pretty good also Had dinner at La Cusina the other day and the pizza's we also good The pizza company pizza's are also ok as long as you take the thing crust.

BobAnderson Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 Two great places with excellent pizza: Toto's in Cherng Talay and Kamala. As good as anything back home - as is Two Brother's mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost of Phoolan Devi Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 La Gondola in Kata. For me, the best pizzas on Phuket, and at very reasonable prices, too. As good as the best pizzas in Bangkok. They also have a quite inexpensive but decent house wine, another reason for me to go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also have a quite inexpensive but decent house wine, another reason for me to go there. That's a long user name. Is this Kata joint a French gourmet pizza place? (on a mountain or suspended from a wire...um...sorry) Or...is it a good ol' fashioned pepperoni heartburn pizza shack (with wine of course)?

Jimbo Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 Hi guys, Where is P Bar on Nanai. I decided to give it a try and spend half an hour driving up and down nanai as an idiot and could not find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Please tell me how to get there. I am hungry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godot Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 P Bar is about halfway on Nanai. Haven't been to Phuket for some months now but there used to be a road from Rat-U-Thit (beside the old 7-eleven) that would take you to Nanai (pass the market). P Bar is right on that T-section. Does not look like a Pizza place though. But ask around. You'll find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I went to P bar last night. They dont sell pizza's any longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamdomChances Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Theres an Italian resteraunt up on Nanai past the Andaman, cant remember the name of the place, but its Italian owned and run and most of the expat Italians hang out there, great Pizza.

fatter than harry Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Maggies in Rawai (between the sunshine bar and the freedom bar) Best Pizza Best prices. Lorenzo's in Nai Harn (At the main entrance to the Royal Meridian Yatch Club) Great pizza, great other items too, also great music, although a touch expensive compared to maggies, worth it for the location.

Andi Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 The Italian place on Nanai is called Thai Italy (apt), and Eusebio is a great host. Pizza chef was away in Italy for a month, but is back now guarding his wood burning oven. Real authentic thin pizza bases. None of this bread overload, stuffed crust American <deleted>! Ciabatta bread with olive oil and balsamic, and coffee (the proper stuff) is all free! Tiramissu they make is to die for, house wine is very reasonable and all within staggering didtance of my gaf!

Rex7777 Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 I'm not sure it qualifies as the "best," but Pizzedelic at Patong Beach is OK. Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnagMonger Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Try the Italian guy across from the Thara Patong. We all may laugh but the Pixxa Co on soi Bangla has a very good Tom Yom Kung pizza and nice salad bar with very cold beer. Newish place but still very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Burt Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 The best Pizza in Thailand is to be had on NaiHarn beach. Owned and operated by an expat Italian guy who learnt from a master Pizza maker in Italy before he moved to Thailand to be with his Thai wife. Called Lorenzo's - looks very downmarket shack in amongst the other restaurants / shops but it really is the bet Pizza. Cooked in authentic stone oven (built himself). Has a tree in the middle going through the roof. Open everday / evening during the season. A bit hit and mis off season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godot Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 Ok, old topic, but there's a new restaurant in Patong called Papa Joe's, and their pizza is GREAT. By any standard. Located on Rat-U-Thit behind Charoen Optical, about 200 ms from Bangla towards Soinamien. Not much of a venue, but... yummy. Try the Italian sausage w/bell peppers. (I even got a free beer when I ordered a large one!) Well, just thought I'd let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasi Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 The Family restaurant in chalong has excellent pizza. 1/2 block from the circle towards phuket town. The also have fantastic Mediterranean cuisine. Fairly cheap too. The "chalong plate" by itself is worth the visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumbleFlyer Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 Unless PizzaDellic has moved they are gone...gone from Beach Road! There is stone oven at the Thara Patong that is good. Pizza Company is not a good place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve DaPilot Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Without a doubt for me (so far - and admittedly after only about 6 months of living here), the absolutely best pizza on the island is at "The bakery" at Canal Village in Laguna. As some of you probably know, this is a small little stand-alone cafe serving excellent cuisine off of a limited menu (kitchen's not that big!) and the pizza is easily some of the best I have ever experienced. As a native of a very Italian "suburb" of Boston and a former resident in Italy for 3 yrs, I can say that without a doubt it is "world class". I am not sure but would expect that the pizza at the main Sheraton Laguna restaurant would be equally good with same recipe, equipment, etc but don't know frankly because have never dined there. Just be aware that the Canal Village cafe is only open til 6pm daily so don't plan a dinner there (maybe a good reason to go to the Sheraton resto). By the way, excellent cappucinos and FREE WiFi internet access are also good reasons why I go there (although I got addicted to their pizza long before the WiFi started). Why am I telling you all this anyway? PS: For anyone who actually (honestly) likes any of the chain pizza places around - especially Pizza Company, PLEASE do not try out REAL pizza here in Laguna. I would rather eat anything else rather than the garbage served at these places. PS : Beware of heaps of corn thrown unannounced onto your Pizza Co pizza (they only inform you of it on the thai language menu) I went there ONCE and will NEVER go back. Buon appetito !!
