Pattaya Island Thai Restaurant

With a full Thai staff in the kitchen, Pattaya Island does all its dishes in true authentic fashion. The restaurant imports most of the ingredients from Thailand and you can literally taste the freshness in every forkful. The Thai papaya salad was light and refreshing, with a little spicy edge to kick-start the appetite for the meal ahead. Pattaya’s signature quick fried crab was another impressive plate. The giant Australian-imported crustacean sat atop a bed of deep-fried vermicelli and garlic, and the bold flavors soaked deep into the tender crabmeat. We happily lapped up all these delish Southeast Asian dishes right by the striking view of the Tsing Ma Bridge. Picturesque view and very good food—we really felt like we were on holiday.
