Recommend to go early or later around 8pm to avoid the 1-2 hour wait! not much parking outside‼️ Seafood is fresh & the highlight is definitely the banana leaf grilling to everything ✨ at reasonable price even visited by locals ✨

If you're a seafood lover like me, visiting Johor Bahru means you have to try Ikan Bakar Tampin. What makes it stand out is not just the freshness of the seafood but the unique way it’s grilled on banana leaves, which infuses a subtle aroma and adds to the taste. One tip from my experience is to avoid peak dining hours since this place can get crowded quickly, sometimes causing a 1-2 hour wait. Arriving early or after 8 PM helped me enjoy my meal without a rush. Parking can be limited in front of the restaurant, so consider carpooling or using nearby parking lots if possible. The affordability surprised me, especially considering the quality and portion sizes, making it a perfect spot for casual dining with family or friends. Besides the grilled fish, the variety of seafood options available ensures there’s something for everyone. Being visited frequently by locals is a good sign of authenticity and value. For anyone craving a genuine JB seafood experience that’s different from the typical cafes you find elsewhere, this restaurant is a must-try. Combining good food, reasonable prices, and a unique grilling method creates an enjoyable culinary adventure.
