About
The Tripadvisor source names the venue as a seafood BBQ buffet as well as a steak restaurant, supporting the buffet as a core offer rather than a generic seafood description. Confirm its current availability and price before dining. Confirm the current menu, hours and seating arrangements directly before visiting. Rim Talay has been serving seafood on Wongamat Beach for well over a decade, in a plum spot beside the Centara Grand Mirage at the Naklua end of the bay. It’s a classic Thai beach-restaurant formula done at scale: seafood displayed on ice — much of it brought in by the restaurant’s own boats — grilled steaks for the meat-eaters, and rows of tables running down toward the sand.
The seafood BBQ buffet is the crowd-puller: pick from fresh seafood, Thai, Japanese, Chinese and Western dishes, and staff grill your selections and bring them to the table. Reviews rate the setting and freshness above the cooking consistency — at peak times the buffet can be uneven, and it’s worth sending anything under-done back for another turn on the grill.
Come before sunset for the view; prices are mid-to-upper for Pattaya seafood, reflecting the beachfront position.

Source and booking boundary
The official site supports the operator identity, Tripadvisor supports the seafood BBQ buffet description, and the brewery profile supplies a separate address-and-hours cross-check. None of those sources fixes today’s menu, buffet price, table availability or weather-dependent beachfront seating. Confirm the current offer before dining.
