Where to Eat in Chonburi Province: The Best Restaurants and Bars

October 1, 2017 Nobuko Falco

Chonburi (Thai: ชลบุรี, RTGS: Chon Buri,  [tɕ͡ʰōn bū.rīː] ( listen)) is an eastern province (changwat) of Thailand. Neighboring provinces are (from north clockwise) Chachoengsao, Chanthaburi, and Rayong. To the west is the Gulf of Thailand. Chonburi is home to Thailand's largest tourist oriented city, Pattaya (also spelled Phatthaya), it is the only province outside the Bangkok Metropolitan Area to connect by an eight-lane motorway to Bangkok, 80 km distant. It is home to Thailand's largest and primary seaport, it has a thriving migrant and expatriate population. Due to these factors, the province's population is growing rapidly, with currently some 1.7 million residents (albeit with a large floating or unregistered population). The registered population as of 31 December 2012 was 1.36 million.

What a great dining experience! Unique Thai cocktails on arrival ((excellent flavours and good value!), well trained staff provide personal European service and the french/thai cuisine is UP there with the best........we had the Beef Wellington and are still talking about it and will definitely be coming back for this world class dish. We are in the high end restaurant business and we were looking for a venue to WOW us on the last night of our holiday so we went by the TA recommendations and here they are spot on! It was a nice touch to meet the owner Blu on the way out...........Thank you all for providing the WOW in our dining experience!

Beautiful, sophisticated, delicious fare. Spot on seamless service as I have experienced at other world class restaurants. My friend had rabbit loin ballotine wrapped with pancetta I had perfectly baked buttery antarctic tooth fish medallion, both outstanding. Entries were Fine de Claire oysters, wonderful. The wine list is incredible.
I would like to extend a special thanks to chef Slava and resident manager
Mr. Thibault for theirs efforts to organize very notable dining experience.
Definitely will be back again.

Five Star J Vegetarian Restaurant

International vegetarian kitchen, j or vegan. Many specialities like for example, original Italian vegetarian seafood pizza or risotto con fungi or saffron. New are Swiss Rosti and pancakes different styles. Indonesian Tempe can be ordered as sate, in some curries as well as in pasta and spaghetti. We banned white sugar and use brown sugar very careful. Beside soy bean oil for cooking we use pure coconut oil for frying and original Italian olive oil for the salads. Monosodium glutamate (MSG), sodium benzoate, artificial colouring, high fructose corn syrup, aspartame, trans fats or other chemicals are ***not*** to be found in our kitchen. As all vegetables are from the same day’s market we don't have to cover with extreme spice. We serve moderate spicy and put fresh chilli on the table. If you like more, let us know, we categorized in chillies from zero to five. You will not find: garlic and onions. Pre order and door to door service from 11 am to 11:00 pm, daily. The restaurant exists since over twenty years; the ambience has switched to European style, white and clean.

We have been staying at the intercontinental so it has been convenient to dine here..while it may be a little more expensive than eating out of the resort, the Thai food is consistently good. Tonight we had the chicken & cashew, traditional Thai dish of mince and basil, grilled chicken & salad for our child, 2 alcoholic beverages for 1600 baht( approx65aud). The papaya salad with grilled chicken last night was yummy. We asked for medium spice and it was still sooo hot!

Livv finest food & drinks

Livv, Restaurant & Wine bar is a unique concept in the food and beverage market. We combine 4 different areas of the catering industry with our: bakery, lunchroom, restaurant and a wine and cocktail bar, and implement them in one simple and strong plug and play concept.The power of this concept lies in the combination of catering to the customers needs and wants. And in the mix of offering all the mainstreem and most ordered dishes and beverages from the international kitchen. All summed up in one menu that does'nt get to complicated or full.Our opening times are from 08:00 am till 23:00 o'clock. Which means we cover breakfast, lunch, dinner and also have a full bar which serves a variety of wines, cocktails and other spirits.So no matter if you come for a full breakfast, a quick Sandwich, a coffee to go, a full dinner, or a couple of drinks with friends. Livv is the place to be.

MAYs Urban Thai Dine - Pattaya

MAYs Urban Thai Dine is an urban Thai restaurant serving Traditional Thai Urban refined. We bring street food into a new light with fusion touches and all home made or freshly sourced ingredients. Our curries are a favorite and all curry pastes are home made, providing for a fresh and unique taste of Thai curries.

Reviewed By Lorette B - Melbourne, Australia

The appetisers were very good. We had mango with soft Shell crab although it did contain carrot which we feel is not authentic Thai and we had Pandan Leaf chicken. We ordered the deep fried sea bass with chili sauce. Unfortunately the sauce was made with tomatoes and pineapple which I believe not very Thai. It seems to have been developed for tourist taste not authentic Thai. The fish was very good but the sauce spoilt it! Last time we were there on October 2017 it was an authentic Thai chili sauce.
We also had Green chicken curry which wasn't at all spicy when we asked for medium spicy.
We fear that this restaurant is being tamed down for tourists.
