This is one of the most gorgeous spots, the staff are fantastic, the food was fantastic. I felt like I was sitting on the Frendh Reviera. Do not miss this experience if you are in Koh Samui.

This restaurant was created for proposals. I think.... The food is delicious, the location is perfect -right on the beach. you could not ask for more. It is amazing to order the food and than just walk on the beach. until it gets there. pure perfection.

Breakfasts were satisfactory, but considering the skills of the evening chefs, could have been better but overall a good variety available.
Our first evening meal was for our 30th Anniversary dinner, and what we ordered was excellent. However, the price of the wine at The Zazen is ridiculous, whereas the meals are reasonable. Coming from Australia and having to pay...

French menu was super but pricy, no vegetarian option, local menu very nice but a bit repetitive after a week eating there, a daily special would have been nice or variety. Service was good. French exact staff were very attentive and friendly.

Two years ago we came to Zazen twice because the food was creative, excellent quality and the overall dining experience although not cheap was very enjoyable. This year things were different. My partner had lobster bisque to which was very good, I had mixed satay, which comprised of 6 enormous satays, far too much meat for a starter. The quality...

We visited Zazen after seeing their menu in the Samui Fine Dining Festival brochure, but when we arrived we decided instead to order one of their Thai tasting menus.
The quality of the food was very good, with the possible exception of a sea bass dish which we felt did not seem to take much of the flavour of the...

Great location overlooking the beach, this restaurant is casual and classy at the same time. Only at night do they serve French food (more formal); in the afternoons for lunch, they serve Thai. Delicious!

Being foodies we were looking forward to experience a part of the action of Samui's fine dining festival at Zazen and embarked on a journey of the lobster degustation. Well this was a journey I would have rather missed for the money spent (over $300 Aussie dollar) to be very disappointed. Courtin's alleged flair for creativity was nowhere to be...

Dear Tails71,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us on Tripadvisor.
We are sad to hear, that our Lobster Menu didn’t meet your expectations. Normally, we get really good reviews on this menu, which can also be seen here on tripadvisor. Our chef Stephane Courtin took your comment very seriously and will have a talk with his kitchen crew....
