About Hat Yai Belmont

Hat Yai Belmont offers a flavorful experience with their crispy, light, and flaky chicken dipped in curry. The restaurant serves a variety of dishes, including the popular Hat Yai combo, Brisket Curry, and Phuket Hokkien Noodle. The house curry is known for its bold flavors that enhance the taste of the chicken, sticky rice, and roti. The Roti is fried perfectly, complementing the curry broth and sticky rice, and is described as flaky and fun to eat, like a flat Asian croissant. The chicken is praised for being juicy and well-seasoned, even the chicken breast which is usually dry. The sticky rice is simple and versatile, pairing well with everything. The Mango Horchata drink is a highly recommended refreshment. The outside space with picnic tables is mostly covered, providing a nice setting for dining. The atmosphere is casual and bright, with friendly staff who are attentive and helpful despite a “buss your own table and get your own utensils” policy. The restaurant offers dietary options such as a vegan broth for shellfish allergies and gluten-free choices. Parking includes street parking for two hours, free after 7 pm. Overall, Hat Yai Belmont is a delightful spot for delicious Thai cuisine, especially on cold, rainy days when the curry is particularly satisfying. Recent visitors praised the fried chicken, crispy roti, flavorful curry, and the delicious sticky rice, with some mentioning the fun spins on Thai classics and creative cocktails.
