6. Lek Noi
$ | | SeafoodThis place doesn't look like much—it's little more than a shack with plastic chairs and simple wooden tables—but many locals say this the best place for seafood on the island. Lek Noi is a little more than a kilometer (½ mile) out of town on the way to Chudhadhuj Palace.
Mekhaamthaew Rd., Koh Si Chang, Chonburi, 20120, Thailand -
7. Lucky Crab Restaurant
$$$ | |As if striving to please every last one of the island's international visitors, this fun restaurant serves entrées from around the world.

9. Nang Nual
$$$ | |At the southern end of Pattaya Beach Road is one of the city's best places for seafood.

12. Saeng Thai

16. Whan Tok
$ | Mae Nam Beach |Perched on the water, this family-owned joint is filled with locals who come for the seafood. Finding the place is half the fun; the sign out front has no writing in English, so if you're coming by cab, ask someone at your hotel to write out the name in Thai.
