This restaurant has the best food in all of Samui. The decor looks gourmet but there are affordable options. The menu is varied with a little something for every person and every occasion. It’s wonderful for celebrating special occasions but mostly I just go when I want a really delicious meal. I’m so happy they moved from the beach as this location is more convenient for me. I never shop at Central now without grabbing a meal at White Pearl.
We are still in Koh Samui for a few more days. Yesterday we stopped in the White Pearl restaurant. You can’t miss stopping to take a picture with the one of a kind metal Predator guitar player as you enter! You must know that when a restaurant owner, Sean, greets you with a welcoming smile as soon as you enter and then proceeds to seat you in some of the most comfortable restaurant chairs I have ever sat in while calling a waitress over that this man owns his restaurants integrity, their fantastic food, the beautiful environment and he is proud of it as he should be. He suggested a bottle of white wine with a late lunch that was perfect for the occasion and food choices. The thick cushioned seats swallow you at the perfect angle for eating and welcome us to stay and enjoy the environment as long as we like. We had the baked oysters, white cream covered grilled chicken breast, minced pork salad and coconut soup Thai dish so there was a variety and it was all prepared perfectly while served with a smile. The portions were large enough I had to take a to-go bag for the evenings dinner! Sean takes the time to personally greet each customer and even sat in a table beside us to chat about the area, a wonderful gracious man you will not forget and a world of information he is. I felt like I had made a friend by the time we left. My wife and I highly suggest if on Koh Samui you visit and dine at the White Pearl restaurant, you will go back as we plan to do.
Thank you Sean, 🙏🙏🙏, for making our lunch memorable and welcoming! Your restaurant, although new, is going to be a huge success because of your leadership and perseverance for perfection. Most highly impressed, you made our day special!
R, Kyle

We have been coming to Samui for over 14 years and this has been a great discovery this past week! We will definitely add to our top list for a great meal. The staff is super nice and the owner is super helpful. We had the tuna tartare, the papaya salad and the duck with blueberry sauce and every dish was really really nice. Definitely going again and highly recommend.

Went there for lunch. Ordered fried spring rolls, eggplant with feta, roast duck red curry, masamman chicken curry and fresh coconuts.
The price listed needed ++
The restaurant setting was nice but the food did not meet expectations. The comments mentioned in previous reviews seemed overrated.
The spring rolls were far too oily. Oil dripping from the rolls and the napkin used to soak up the excess oil was saturated.
The roast duck red curry wasn't roasted at all. The duck skin was soft and fat wasn't rendered. The most disappointing thing was that no duck breast was served. It was torn duck leg.
The menu explicitly stated that the presentation might not be the same as the photo shown in the menu. However, it also clearly stated that it would be "tender roasted duck breast".
Unfortunately, it wasn't the case. Felt like being cheated.

I was there for dinner three times and always everything was really perfect. I didn't have to wait too long, everything was freshly prepared and it was so tasty! Just wonderful. Before I was in a 5star resort on Koh Phangan, but at white pearl the food was better! The prices are reasonable and you can also find dishes really unexpensive. The couple who owns the restaurant is very nice and their stuff is doing very well. I highly recomend white pearl.

Good recently opened Restaurant with an interesting artful setting and a feel at home atmosphere.
The owner Sean was a great partner for a chat and gave us some great travel tips for the island.
Service was especially kind and everyone was speaking English very well.
Overall a nice place to escape a little from the busy chaweng center road and enjoy a relaxed delicious dinner. Highly recommended!
