Maurizio is Italian and the one waitress, a Thai lady who we're guessing is his wife, is very attentive and speaks acceptable English. If you want to speak to Maurizio, you better be able to speak Italian. He speaks hardly any English.
The only negative is there are no soups on the menu, but he has all kinds of pasta dishes, many of which I had never heard of. I've been trying them all, one by one. He makes the pasta himself - not "store bought" pasta. He also has plenty of appetizer choices too and some excellent salads. He also has a variety of pizzas. I haven't gotten to the pizzas yet. I like his pasta dishes too much to forego them for a pizza, but I'm sure I'll try one at some point.
The prices are inexpensive. Last night I had his insalata tono, a pasta dish - Bucatini Gricia - similar to Carbonara and I believe made with real guanciale instead of bacon (maybe lvdkeyes can verify that if he tries the restaurant) - and soda water to drink. The spaghetti was perfect al dente.
The bill came to 380 baht. I have not seen Bucatini Gricia anywhere else in Pattaya, or anywhere else in Thailand either. He has many pasta dishes I have never seen anywhere else.
There is both indoor and outdoor seating.
I definitely recommend giving Maurizio Di Italiano a try.
You'll find it on Soi Chaiyapruek about halfway between Jomtien Second Road and the beach. Look for the small yellow sign. If you get much more than halfway to the beach from Jomtien Second Road, you probably missed it.
