The Bistro is located at Rocky’s Boutique Resort and has a menu of Mediterranean and Thai favourites, focusing on grilled meats and fish. The atmosphere is elegant and modern; it mixes Thai décor with a relaxed beach feel. There is also seating either inside or next to the pool.
Some of the choices from the grill include local and imported ingredients such as salmon, Australian lamb cutlets, and Cajun tiger prawns. Local delicacies are used throughout the menu, such as the Seafood Pasta Cortoccio, which is an aglio e olio (garlic and olive oil) Italian-style dish served with local seafood from Koh Samui.

If you prefer to eat meat, then the steak au poivre comes in the form of Australian tenderloin, which is glazed in brandy and served with peppercorn sauce.
There are many nods to Thai ingredients here, such as the butterfish wrapped in betel leaf with a turmeric and coconut sauce, or the tiger prawns in tamarind, which includes a signature homemade sauce that packs a punch. You can also try some lighter bites like spring rolls that come with spicy dipping sauces, and pair these with a drink from the comprehensive menu of imported wines, cocktails, and soft drinks.
