There is a new/old place (refurb) next to Jolly Friar on soi Lenkee. Forget the name. Popped in recently for the special. Ribs were the star of my plate with the sides a little smaller than anticipated. However it worked perfectly in terms of having enough to mix everything properly. The ribs are fantastic now. A few months back they were average. Same as everywhere else.
Did the place change hands? Looks like they might have spent some money on the place too. Don't remember the decoration being as nice. It is quite a nice looking place now.
I'd say if you like good ribs it could be a winner. Really hope I did not catch it on a one off good day and the food remains consistently good.
Finally as an edit could I just make it clear that this is the Pattaya forum and no one gives a fuck about BKK rib places here. There is a BKK forum for that.
