I had dinner at Tengoku, the Japanese restaurant at InterContinental Phuket, and really enjoyed it!
The Lobster Ramen was so rich and flavourful. You could really taste the depth of the shrimp-based broth, and it was so good that I wanted to finish the whole bowl especially the soup! 🍜
But the one thing I honestly can’t forget was the homemade pickled tomato. 🍅
I’m not usually crazy about tomatoes, but this one completely changed my mind. 😂❤️
Everything was delicious, and the cocktails were good too. But that little homemade pickled tomato was definitely the unexpected highlight for me. ❤️
A must-try restaurant for Japanese food lovers in Phuket. If you’re traveling to Phuket, I highly recommend trying Tengoku. The food was authentic, and it was such a nice experience to see the live cooking from the table. Overall, I was very impressed both the taste and service. Definitely a place I would come back to again.
Outstanding experience at Tengoku, InterContinental Phuket. This is a high-end Japanese restaurant, and the quality fully justifies the price. The sashimi was exceptionally fresh, refined and perfectly cut. The sake tasting was a real highlight, with excellent recommendations from the staff. Every dish showed great finesse, balance and attention to detail. Elegant atmosphere, professional service — ideal for a special occasion or fine-dining lovers
Tengoku is such a great restaurant — the food here is absolutely amazing. We had the ramen, which tasted so rich and authentic, and the glazed salmon, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavour. We also tried a selection of cocktails because Tengoku collaborated with Dirty Dick Paris, one of the World’s 50 Best Discovery Bars. Each drink was creative, balanced, and matched perfectly with the food.
Overall, it was an incredible dining experience — delicious food, unique cocktails, and a great atmosphere. Highly recommended!
We had an incredible evening at Tengoku at the Intercontinental Kamala, experiencing a special collaboration with Dirty Dick Paris. As locals, we are truly impressed by the impeccable quality of both the drinks and the food. The mixologists, Scotty and Matteo, crafted exquisite tropical cocktails that were both creative and perfectly balanced. Each drink was a delight.
The kitchen delivered top-notch Japanese fine dining with every dish meticulously prepared and bursting with authentic flavors. From delicate sashimi to the rich, flavorful ramen and perfectly grilled salmon, every bite was exceptional. The presentation was also beautiful, adding to the overall experience.
Everything was on point — service, ambiance, and quality. We highly recommend Tengoku to anyone in Phuket looking for refined Japanese cuisine paired with expertly crafted cocktails. This is a must-visit for anyone wanting a first-class dining experience in Kamala.
