From past classes

We’ve been travelling for 17 days. This was - by a mile - the best food we had across Malaysia (and Langkawi). We came for dinner on the Saturday - and the food was so good that we came back the next day for the cookery course. We did it with our two children (11 and 5), and all of us had an amazing time. Our 5 year old baked chocolate cookies whilst the rest of us made 5 mains (rendang, butter chicken, fish curry etc) and three starters (spring rolls, pakora etc). We never normally give reviews but it was so good that we had to.

Will Turner

We had a really nice experience with Pia and all her family. We found the cooking classes really interesting. They teached us how to cook a lot of dishes, and gived excellent tips. I strongly recommend them. Thank you very much 😊

Tripadvisor reviewer

What an awesome, family run place this is! We participated in Pia’s cooking class and had a wonderful experience. Not only is the food you cook delicious, but Pia is so generous, kind and funny making this experience even better! Would highly recommend the cooking class, worth every penny!

We found this hidden place in Langkawi and it was our best dinner in Malaysia 🇲🇾during our 3 weeks here. We ordered a set menu for 2 person and everything was delicious. They also offer a cooking class. Highly recommend this restaurant 📍

Panda and Parrot 5 out of 5 Google

Absolutely amazing food, some of the best curry I’ve tasted anywhere. Service was great, very welcoming and attentive, couldn’t really complain about anything. Definitely recommended for a fantastic meal in Langkawi.

John O 5 out of 5 Tripadvisor

We stayed in langkawi for four nights but had dinner three times in Pia. It’s just the best food we’ve had in Malaysia. Beef Rendang was always on our table and the atmosphere was amazing. Jimmy was being really nice to us during our visit.

杨奕 5 out of 5 Google

This is the best meal I’ve had in Malaysia so far. So good I had to come right home and write my review!!! If you’re considering going … do it. Jimmy is a charming host and his team were ace. I love this place. So glad we went. A really nice atmosphere as well.

Amy S 5 out of 5 Tripadvisor

We stopped here for dinner before heading to Dream Forest Langkawi. The environment is lovely and the food tasted great. We had some diet restrictions but the chef came to our table to discuss with us so they could slightly customised their cooking to suit us. Awesome stuff!

Victor Seah 5 out of 5 Google

Lovely place! 🫶 The food was so goooood that we ended up eating there twice. I especially recommend the butter masalas — they were so delicious that we used roti to scrape up every last bit from the bottom of the dishes. The staff were also wonderful, and the location next to the fields was absolutely charming. 🩷

Jenna 5 out of 5 Tripadvisor

Lovely and superbly tasty food at Pia Padi Langkawi! The chef was kind enough to accommodate our low spice preference, which we really appreciated. Will definitely come again when we’re back in Langkawi!

PY 5 out of 5 Google

We were recommended Pias The Padi by the owners of the property we were staying in. I am glad they did as we thoroughly enjoyed our meal, the food was great, the service was great and staff extremely friendly. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal with great views away from the major tourist areas. Alex and Trish, Adelaide, Australia ps Jimmy the owner is a lovely guy.
