Medan Ikan Bakar Kuala Ibai (bawah jambatan) — Restaurant in Terengganu

This is a good family seafood restaurant. You first pick the fresh seafood. There many types of sea and River fish. Also crabs, prawns and squid. Each can be cooked in many ways. The safe bet is chilli or sambal style. The just order I'd do fried squid, or calamari. The batter is fine and crispy and goes well with the sweet chilli sauce. The chili crab is good, not great, but thoroughly enjoyable. Sweet and sour prawns is ok, but the batter fried is better. La la or clams in chili is also very tasty. The environment itself is quite nice, being by the river which thankfully we not smelly. This place is only open for dinner, so, unless it rains, is enjoyable under the stars. It can get really busy at 8pm onwards, so, do go early. The one other popular dish is the fried eggs, or telur dadar. Apart from the seafood, they serve Western as well. One of the crazier things they have is the multi decker fried chicken burger... Worthy of a spot in an...

So this place has a lot of reviews compared to similar restaurants around. Maybe due to its location that is located under the bridge make it quite different from the others.

You need to come as early as 7pm as when the night gets older, the same with the crowd. You might find a challenge to find a parking space because there's not much.

Okay, coming to the food, you need to find your seat first and memorize the table number, because you'll need it to make an order. Once you have your table number, go to the stall which displays the latest fish /other seafood.

We ordered 1 grilled grouper with spicy sambal (weighed around 700g-800g), friend squid, butter prawn, vegetables and 2 drinks. It only costs us around RM114 which is a pretty good deal.

For sure I will come back again if...

Visit on weekdays, not so many crowds but the seafoods are fresh & well-cooked. Just don't really have much choice, especially when I come only w my friend, 2 people. All fishes are huge, but because the price is quite reasonable we don't mind taking fish for like 4 pax. The celop tepung seafood is sensation, very tasty & squid is not chewy at all, the batter is very tasty, the special sauce complement the flavor. Great restaurants. But yeah, the tom yum is a little bit off.

Service not slow, maybe no crowd. Parking is spacious, but not sure if that was actually mosque parking or the restaurant parking anyway, not difficult to park. The restaurant itself seems to have their own coffee but right in front got coffee stall to enjoy after the dinner.

Overall great...
