Patrick's Steakhouse
Patrick's Steakhouse is one of central Pattaya's best-known steak addresses — a long-running, Belgian-run restaurant on Pattaya Second Road, opposite Mike Shopping Mall in the Central Shopping Arcade. It has built a strong reputation among steak-hunting tourists and resident expats, sitting near the top of Pattaya's restaurant rankings on Tripadvisor (around 4.6 of 5 across hundreds of reviews). The pull is the beef: imported cuts from Australia, New Zealand, the United States and Argentina, cooked to order, from a Wagyu ribeye to an Argentinean Chateaubriand, alongside crowd-pleasers like the Hawaiian surf-and-turf (shrimp, lobster and steak) and the loaded Obelix burger. There is a Belgian streak to the place — think proper sauces, a decent beer list and rich desserts such as chocolate profiteroles — and service is generally quick and efficient. The setting is comfortable rather than glamorous: indoor air-conditioned seating and a sheltered outdoor terrace inside a shopping arcade on a busy road, so you come for the food rather than a view. Prices sit in the upper-mid band for Pattaya — a proper steak dinner with wine isn't cheap, but portions and quality are consistent enough that regulars keep coming back. For a reliable, carnivore-focused night out in the centre of town, it remains a dependable pick. Booking is wise on weekends and in high season.
