Buffet identity and schedule
Indian Connection is at Pattaya Loft Hotel around Pattaya Klang Soi 12/13, with a vegetarian and non-vegetarian North Indian buffet plus a la carte service. The dated Tripadvisor schedule of 13:00-16:00 and 19:00-23:00 conflicts with broader daily-hours records, so confirm the serving window before travelling. Indian Connection is an Indian restaurant at the Pattaya Loft Hotel on Pattaya Klang (Central Pattaya Road), around Soi 12/13. It’s built around a value all-you-can-eat buffet — vegetarian and non-vegetarian North Indian dishes at lunch and dinner — with a full à la carte menu alongside, in a central, easy-to-reach spot.
The Tripadvisor listing gives the restaurant phone as 038 489 496 and shows a split lunch-and-dinner schedule of 13:00–16:00 and 19:00–23:00. That conflicts with broader daily-hours listings, so treat the split schedule as a dated platform report rather than a promise; the Thai AutoReserve record also places the venue on Soi Pattaya Klang 12 and shows a THB 200 budget marker without publishing a dependable current buffet price.
What to order
Work the buffet for variety — curries, tandoori, dhal, breads, rice and biryani, with a solid vegetarian selection — or order à la carte for the classics. It’s straightforward, well-priced Indian food rather than a refined tasting menu.

Good to know
A buffet is only as good as its last refill, so go at peak lunch or dinner when the trays are fresh and turning over. A 2019 Tripadvisor review specifically mentions chicken tikka masala and roti but wanted more buffet choice; another review describes the North Indian vegetarian and non-vegetarian menu and says à la carte service can slow during buffet periods. Those are dated diner reports, not a current menu guarantee. Confirm the buffet price, serving times and today’s spread before a special trip.
Detailed facts, cautions, facilities & reviews
Full overview
Indian Connection is an Indian restaurant on Pattaya Klang (Central Pattaya Road), set at the Pattaya Loft Hotel around Soi 12/13 in the middle of town. Its calling card is a value buffet: an all-you-can-eat spread of vegetarian and non-vegetarian North Indian dishes at lunch and dinner, alongside a full à la carte menu if you'd rather order the classics — curries, tandoori, breads, biryani and the usual veg options. It pitches itself squarely at the buffet crowd — solo diners, groups and families who want variety without ordering piecemeal — and its central location makes it an easy walk or short ride from the Central Festival and Beach Road hotels. It's a mid-market, functional restaurant rather than a fine-dining room; reviews are mixed and it sits mid-pack among Pattaya's many Indian places, so it's best thought of as a convenient, well-priced all-you-can-eat option rather than the city's top curry house. As with any buffet, the spread is at its best when it's busy and freshly topped up, so aim for peak lunch or dinner times. Prices, the buffet line-up and hours change, so confirm the current buffet price and serving times before you go — especially if you're travelling across town specifically for it.
