Grillbar Steakhouse was my daughter's choice and she's been patronizing the restaurant for so many times. My daughter and my son in law insist on asking us to try the steaks there. I was there for the first time with my husband and my son and we were seated at a table which is really near the entrance walkway even... More

I went there with two of my friends. We find the place to be very cozy and the atmosphere very comfortable (although the outward appearance of the restaurant looks a little bit dodgy). The waiters were also very friendly. We ordered two steaks and a chicken breast dish. My apologies for not remembering the dishes we had. The waiting time... More

I enjoyed a delicious Waygu Ribeye steak at the Bar Grill. The atmosphere is nice and attentive waitstaff. What an enjoyable meal and I will DEFINITELY be BACK!! The only suggestion I can make for the restaurant is to have BIGGER napkins.

1st parking is a big head ache. No one would think it's a western food restaurant! It looks like a normal bar from outside and the name sound like that too. Anyway service was excellent, food was great, cozy atmosphere. This place is more for the beef lovers. Limited choices of chicken, fish, and lamb dishes. Starter : wild mushroom... More

First time visiting, called and make a reservation and request for menu as reference but they reject to send for us. Thus my mind is full with curiosity! Looking at the good review from trip advisor and several friends recommending decide to for a try! Parking was a bit problem as limited parking lots available and they don't reserve for... More

Visited Grillbar quite a couple of times. The team never fail to awe me with their service & professionalism. They always have something delightful to recommend me, making each dining experience unique. Highly recommend their wagyu beef & their starters, such as onion blossom, these are some of the brainchild by the friendly chef Ozzy. This place is a gem... More

Heard about this Grill Bar so went to check it out on what to eat for dinner. We had 3 different dishes n the food was all kinda oily. Their steak specialty was no better. We didn't finish our food which was too oily n not up to our expectations. Prices were a bit stiff pertaining to quality, leaving one... More

A classic JB dining experience. Steaks were well cooked and served with a smile. Wine glasses hanging above the bar had not seen use for some time. Beer drinkers only !

If you are looking for a place that is cozy, quaint, yet serving delicious and tantalising food, Grill Bar is THE place to go to! With quirky Chef Ozzy and his minions running the show, Grill bar is easily the best restaurant for its price in JB and possibly the entire Malaysia! Have been there 8 times and counting! Undeniable!
