Sukishi
Sukishi is a Thai-grown Korean-and-Japanese buffet chain, and its Pattaya branch — trading as Sukishi Korean Charcoal Grill — sits on the 5th floor of Central Festival Pattaya Beach on Beach Road. The format is cook-your-own: you get a charcoal or hot grill set into your table and a stream of marinated meats and seafood — beef, pork and salmon are the staples — to grill to your own taste, backed by a Korean-Japanese spread that runs from banchan side dishes and kimchi to sushi and hotpot options depending on the package you pick. It's an all-you-can-eat deal with a time limit (typically around one hour and forty minutes), which keeps things brisk and sociable. This is fun, hands-on, good-value group dining rather than fine dining — the kind of place families, friends and hungry teenagers pile into after a mall session — and it's reliably air-conditioned and easy, with picture-and-package menus that make ordering simple. Prices sit in the mid bracket, usually a few hundred baht per person depending on the buffet tier and any add-ons; check the current package boards, as they change. The Pattaya branch has been through a recent reopening at Central Festival, so — as with any mall tenant — it's worth confirming it's operating and checking hours before you make a special trip.
