Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We confirm most reviews. This is an excellent restaurant for Thai dishes. All we had was excellent and spice wise also right to the point. Place was fully packed and it took a while but it is worthwhile

We have been going tot Poom's place for the past 20 years, and we can assure you that you want to take a taxi and have dinner af this family restaurant in Maenam. Every dish is prepared with the utmost care, all ingredients are fresh...and the pad Thai is to die for. Lovely host Aom speaks English very well and is always ready to give recommendations.More

What a fantastic place this is. The food is excellent and the owners are absolutely delightful. Nothing is too much trouble. Been in maenam for two weeks and this is our favourite place by far. Definitely worth a visit (or two). Superb

Recently we have spent 16 beautiful day in Thailand on Koh Samui, at Mae Nam area. We are regular travellers, have already been so many beautiful, and exotic countries from all over the world, and we usually, after trying out many different places, choose one...very good place worth to go back almost every day. In Aonang (also in Thailand) it was the Jungle Kitchen, at Samui it was the Poom`s Place. This year we were travelling with a 10 months old baby boy, so, apart from the good, oriental food, we had to find some place, where the little one feels all right. Well, after two or three days, we found the Poom`s Place restaurant, and we yes, it was "love for the first sight". Good location (quiet, but not too quiet), very good atmosphere, and extremely friendly and gorgeous stuff. Yes the little one is beautiful, and apparently not just for us, but for everybody, who meet him all over the world, but in this restaurant it was even more. No matter how busy they were, they played with him, entertained him, and not just for making us a little room to enjoy the variable delicious meals, but they did it from their heart. I now that my summary is not really about the food, which was fantastic anyway, it is much more about a place, where you arrive after a while just like home. We really loved it. So Dear Poom`s Stuff, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for all your kindness, and for the fantastic meals, we really loved it, and definitely get back to you guys, if we will be around. Warm Regards, Charles, Annamari, and the little MadoxMore
