Perched high above Pattaya Bay on the 12th-floor rooftop of Meliá Pattaya, Yítóng Chinese Restaurant & Sky Bar is the city’s newest fine-dining beacon — a modern tribute to Chinese heritage, elevated through art, flavor, and design. Here, tradition meets innovation, and every detail—from the cuisine to the architecture—tells a story of refinement and connection.
A Contemporary Vision of Chinese Sophistication
From the moment guests step through its doors, Yítóng captures attention with a striking ribbon-like ceiling installation — a sculptural ode to Chinese calligraphy that flows gracefully above the dining room. Gold and black trimmings set the stage for understated opulence, while vivid accents of crimson nod to prosperity. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows draw in Pattaya’s beach and bay views, merging the energy of the city with the calm of the sea.
The main dining area balances soft lighting, earthy tones, and natural textures inspired by the landscapes of Chonburi and Northern Thailand, creating an atmosphere of serene luxury. Upstairs, the Sky Bar opens onto a lush, contemporary rooftop where cocktails meet horizon-wide views and evenings linger beneath the stars. For those seeking intimacy, Yítóng’s “Wellness Alcoves” offer secluded nooks for meaningful conversation over dinner or drinks.
Flavours That Speak of Artistry and Heritage
Yítóng’s culinary philosophy is built on harmony — a perfect blend of Cantonese refinement and Sichuan boldness, infused with wellness and sustainability. The result: food that nourishes body, mind, and soul.
Each dish celebrates craftsmanship and shared dining traditions. Signature highlights include:

Dim sum lovers will find artistry in every bite—from handcrafted dumplings to the irresistible Salted Egg Lava Buns and Coconut Lava Buns, their molten centers revealing just the right touch of indulgence. Don’t miss the premium Fried Taro Puffs with BBQ Pork—an exquisite balance of texture and flavor that embodies Yítóng’s culinary ethos.
A Tribute to the Past, with Eyes on the Future
Yítóng draws its name and spirit from the Chak Ngaew Chinese community in Chonburi Province — a historic enclave known for its shrines, markets, and enduring traditions. In Mandarin, “Yítóng” translates to “together,” a sentiment reflected in the restaurant’s family-style approach to dining. Here, meals are designed to be shared — fostering connection, unity, and celebration.
Sourcing is as thoughtful as the cooking itself. Fresh seafood comes directly from Chonburi’s fishermen, while organic vegetables are grown by the Royal Project farms of Northern Thailand, supporting sustainable agriculture and local livelihoods.
A Night to Remember
Recently, the REm Thailand team joined the “Kitchen Party Buffet” — a showcase of Yítóng’s modern Chinese gastronomy. The evening came alive with live cooking stations, from noodle-pulling to wok-fired artistry, transforming dinner into theatre and reaffirming Yítóng’s reputation for creativity and flair.
Service with Heart
Service at Yítóng is discreet yet attentive, with staff who know the menu intimately and anticipate each guest’s needs with genuine warmth — adding to the seamless, luxurious experience that defines every visit.
Yítóng Chinese Restaurant & Sky Bar isn’t just another restaurant in Pattaya — it’s an elevated dining destination that redefines Chinese cuisine on Thailand’s Eastern Seaboard. For sunset cocktails, romantic dinners, or a celebration of culinary heritage with panoramic views, Yítóng offers an experience as refined as it is unforgettable.
