Borscht, pelmeni, olivier and other dishes at LEO & LILY
Family Restaurant · Bo Phut · Koh Samui

Home cooking, an island away from home.

European and Russian cuisine made from scratch with fresh local ingredients — borscht, chicken Kiev, pelmeni, vareniki, blini, and fresh salads for everyone at the table. With a play room for the kids.

Why families choose us

A table for the grown-ups, a room for the kids.

LEO & LILY is named after our own children — this is a restaurant we built for our own family first, and we run it the same way for yours.

01

Russian Comfort Food

Borscht, chicken Kiev, pelmeni and vareniki — the dishes that anchor our kitchen, made from scratch every day.

02

Children's Play Room

A supervised play space so parents can actually finish a meal — and kids have their own reason to look forward to dinner.

03

Fresh Salads & Light Bites

Greek salad, roasted vegetables, and a pumpkin velouté — a lighter direction for expats and health-conscious guests, alongside our comfort classics.

04

Fresh, Local, From Scratch

No shortcuts, no freezer bags. Fresh local ingredients, prepared in-house every single day.

From the kitchen

Nine sections, thirty-six dishes, one identity.

From slow-cooked borscht to hand-folded pelmeni, our menu spans comfort and lightness — nothing frozen, nothing rushed.

Our story

Two kids gave this place its name.

LEO & LILY started as a simple idea: a restaurant our own children would want to grow up in. That's still true today — chef-owned, family-run, and built around the same table we sit at ourselves.

"Finally a place on the island that isn't pizza or seafood. The chicken Kiev tastes like it was made by someone's grandmother."
