Shanti Old Town - Ko Lanta

Rude service. So we decided not to stay for ice cream. Great view though!

Fantastic meal in the Shanti Old Town. I had the pasta salad and the meal was delicious, in a large portion with lots of parmesan cheese. The staff was attentive and I stayed awhile reading and finally on ice. Nice place to enjoy a fresh light meal in the old town. Edit (8 months later when I came back to Lanta! Shanti Old Town is one of my favorite restaurants on Koh Lanta, if not in general. It is never one thing: it is the ambience, the staff, the food, the decor, the view. I love staying in the old town and Shanti is a great reason for it. Of course, the ice is fantastic, but it is the cocktails and daily, usually and hopefully pasta, dishes that always catch my attention and hold me back. The Shanti Garden Cocktail is a must. Fe Fe Fe sources the ingredients locally and turns them into the most inventive dishes, with Italian and French inspiration. Both he and Colleen are so sweet and welcoming. I can't say enough good things. I can't wait until my next trip to Koh Lanta so I can eat and drink again:

Wow. Lovely atmosphere. Don’t miss it if you’re in Old Town. Revisited this awesome place for the second year. The beauty of being a bit off is that there is a calmness no place in old town will deliver. This year we enjoyed the food bowl as well, not just the ice cream.

Rumored to have the best ice cream in Ko Lanta so had to go the chocolate banana sorbet did not disappoint! Great boutique in the front and stunning view from the back with comfy seating options. Will be back to try cocktails!

Cozy cozy place to watch the sea. Amazing owners. Very friendly. I may have seem like a rude guy. But really appreciate your hospitality. Thanks for the fresh food. So fresh homemade ice cream.
