Punjabi Dhaba

Punjabi Dhaba is a North Indian restaurant on Pattaya Soi 8, cooking the hearty, unapologetically rich food of the Punjab — the dal makhani, butter chicken, tandoori and fresh naan that 'dhaba' (roadside eatery) cooking is built on. It is tucked just off Beach Road and Second Road in the busy Soi 6–8 cluster of Central Pattaya, so it is an easy walk from a lot of hotels, and it leans on chefs who cook regional Punjabi recipes rather than a watered-down 'international curry' menu. Expect the classics done properly: slow-cooked black-lentil dal makhani, creamy butter chicken, paneer dishes for vegetarians, biryanis and a tandoor turning out naan and grilled meats. Prices are middle-of-the-road for Pattaya Indian — mains sit roughly in the 250–350 baht band, with breads and sides cheaper — and there is dine-in seating, including a family lounge and a covered terrace, plus takeaway and delivery. It is a solid, no-nonsense choice for a proper North Indian meal in the middle of town, particularly for vegetarians and anyone missing real tandoor bread. Note that Soi 8 is a lively, bar-heavy street, so the setting is more 'busy central Pattaya' than serene.

Zaika

Zaika is one of Pattaya's best-known Indian restaurants: a big, two-floor, 120-plus-seat place on South Pattaya Road opposite the Avani/Royal Garden complex, a short walk from Walking Street and the Beach Road baht-bus loop. The kitchen is North Indian at heart — tandoori platters, dal makhani, butter chicken, biryanis and fresh naan from real tandoor ovens — with long vegetarian, vegan and halal-friendly sections that make it a safe bet for mixed groups. It is a step up from a curry-shop in comfort (air-con, proper table service) while staying firmly mid-priced: most visitors report spending roughly ฿200–400 a head before drinks. Reviews across TripAdvisor and Restaurant Guru run strongly positive (around 4.5), with the service — famously fronted by the manager Mr Jain — mentioned nearly as often as the food. It's busy with Indian tour groups and Western expats alike, which tells you the kitchen isn't toning things down. Not a romantic splurge spot, but for a reliable, generous Indian dinner in South Pattaya it's hard to beat.
