Running a Thai restaurant here I eat Thai most of the time. But like most things in life with food you need some variety, I really cravea good sandwhich's here in Phuket which is rare. I also like good Italian and Mexican (try BBQ hut in Patong good ribs as well).
There are many restaurants here in Phuket but in my opinion there are very few good ones.
Lots of guys come here and open a restaurant because they have always wanted to open a restaurant on Phuket and can do it rather cheaply compared to back home. The problem is usually this is their second career and don't have the proper skills in running a restaurant. (perhaps they were in the IT business before coming here)
This is like me coming here and running a computer repair shop or something I really don't have experience at.
Beware of the restaurant that has over 50 items on the menu of all differant types of food as their business levels are low so the food is usually frozen or old and to cook five differant types of cuisines by one chef will usually result in mediocore results.

Just my two cents!

Cheers!
