Frommer's Review

A truly special find, Ka Jok See is a smart and intimate European-styled venue set in an old Sino-Portuguese house. This classy Thai restaurant run by Khun Lek has been here for years and hides mysteriously behind a façade dripping with ivy. Patronized by well-heeled local professionals, it's so well known there is no sign (look for the small Kanasutra Indian restaurant next door). Though its name means stained glass, the decor opts for ceilings of huge wooden beams, giant plants, and candlelight instead of painted glass. A great selection of music sets the stage for a romantic evening, one that's well worth a venture from the beach.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
