Description

Green curry arrives properly spicy, with fresh Thai flavours doing the work. Golden Leaf keeps its menu short and its food focused, which is exactly the right decision for a little beachfront kitchen.

The Thai dishes are the reason to stop here. Curries, vegetable plates and simple local staples come in smaller portions at low-key prices, with enough heat to remind you that chilli is not a personality trait but a useful ingredient.

Tables face the sea, so sunset dinner has a built-in view without the usual theatrical pricing. The setting is relaxed and small, better for an unhurried curry and a cold beer than a big night out. Cocktails are not the attraction; beer or water is the sensible call.

Roast duck with vegetables lacks the punch of the Thai cooking, so leave that one alone. Golden Leaf is for beachside Thai food with a modest menu, a spicy green curry, and the ocean directly beyond the table.

Highlights

Insider Tip
Choose a table closest to the beach edge before sunset; the sea view is the part no menu can reproduce.
