Really impressed with L’Aroma on Jomtien beach. Absolutely beautiful beachfront restaurant and wine shop. Perfect service too.

Odessa is a Jomtien restaurant that everyone should try. The menu is large and the food beautifully prepared. Super healthy too. Air forshmak is the national cold snack of Ukraine. Forshmak is a very delicate herring pate. The presentation was beautiful and generous. The layered herring salad looks too good to eat, with layers of beetroot, herring, egg and potato.

Excellent Sunday lunch at Jimmy’s on Soi 7 (Jomtien). Loads of gravy! Serves a full range of Thai and Western food from breakfast until late.

El Gaucho are an Israeli owned chain of high-end steak houses. Their Pattaya restaurant opened in December 2023. Super high quality with a higher price tag than most other steakhouses.

Incredible meaty feast on Pattaya 2nd Road. Went for the lamb meatballs. 10/10 with sauces even better. Beautiful outdoor restaurant with lots of fans.

Jinhong is a new Shabu restaurant on 3rd road in Pattaya, with all the food circulating on a large conveyor. The Soup base costs 50-60 baht. each ingredient on the conveyor is individually priced from 5 baht to 50 baht. Beautiful place and immaculately clean. On 3rd road, approx 250m from the flyover to Bali Hai.

Berney’s Music Lounge is a large bar and live music venue on Phratamnak Soi 5. The food has always been excellent, especially the Thai food.
