Visited Smoked JB recently and had a very good overall experience. The ambience is warm and rustic, giving a nice smokehouse vibe, and the staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the visit enjoyable. Food highlights: 🍔 Boss Burger – the star of the meal. Super juicy, tasty, and packed with flavour. Definitely a must-try. 🍖 Ribs – good and nicely smoked, but personally didn’t fully meet my expectations compared to the burger. 🍟 Sides were decent and complemented the mains well. Overall, great food, good atmosphere, and pleasant service. Worth a visit if you’re around the area, especially if you’re a burger lover.

Steak was really good, oysters were fresh and tasty, and their chai is surprisingly good too!!! The Caesar salad was honestly something to die for 😂 The lamb shank was super tender — fell right off the bone. I’ve been here twice already and will definitely be coming back again. Shoutout to the staff as well — always on the ball and attentive whenever customers need anything. Big respect to all the young ladies and men working there. Thank you Smokd for the excellent food and service! 🙌🔥

Food on top, recommended to meat lovers like me!! The juice and the tenderness, not to mention the taste are perfect. Such a great experience!! Thank you to staff Zara who been patiently serving us and being helpful along the time we have spent here. The vibe was calming and soothing with buskers playing jazzy music. 10/10 ⭐️🙌🏼

The photos does ZERO justice. The beef brisket was tender, nicely flavoured and was absolutely delicious. The beef ribs was just as amazing. I had thought the sauces that came with it would be below average but it was also good. Also I should have gotten more of the mash potato because even that was great - pieces of chunky mashed potato (you know it's really potatoes and not some powder) perfectly salted and peppered. Nothing too strong and not heavily flavoured which was awesome. Lady at the counter was pleasant and guided me when I was ordering. Nice service staff as well. Restaurant looked decent but I had my food to go so not much comments on the atmosphere and ambience.

Amazing BBQ experience at SmokdJB! The smoked meats were super tender and full of flavour—especially the brisket and ribs, perfectly smoky and juicy. The sides like coleslaw and mashed potatoes complemented the meat really well, and the sauces added a nice kick. Special shoutout to Amir, the staff who gave very good suggestions on what to order and provided super friendly service. He really made the experience even better 👍 Portion sizes were generous, perfect for sharing with family and friends. The place has a cozy and chill vibe too. Definitely one of the best BBQ spots in Johor—highly recommended!
