The food was great... we order a combo which consists of ribs, lamp chop, etc. Their minced beef fries taste great too. Environment for dining was good as well.

We tried the Christmas menu. I had pork rib which very tasty. Two in our group had rib eye which was more well done than expected. The chicken wings we're nice while garden salad had more meat than vegetables. The total bill was rm 170. Our waiter Wiley was quite friendly and attentive. we finished our meals within 60 minutes from entry.

What can I say. We order our food and the order was not keyed into the system. Needless to say everyone got food and we got nothing. All we got was a extremely bad attempt to apologise. They said ‘sorry’. That’s all. We ended up paying for our drinks and after 1 hour left the restaurant hungry. What a disgrace. No service recovery whatsoever. I hope the owner will read this. But I doubt it. Never coming back again. I doubt they care. To have this kind of service during these times where restaurants have struggled is totally unacceptable. Dammit I am so annoyed.

I came here after reading TripAdvisor reviews. The reviews couldn’t be more misleading!!!
Yes, it is true the pork ribs were excellent but the overall package is disappointing. I enjoyed the pork ribs and can’t go wrong with the original BBQ sauce.
What ruined it for was the fries that came with it, the fries was too salty. If it was as if I would high blood pressure instantly. It is that bad! I felt it ruined an otherwise great dish.
The baked mussels is just so so and priced quite high. Wouldn’t order it again and the mushroom was terrible. It was too thick and again salty.
Drinks were alright and no complaints there. I left feeling unsatisfied with my dinner and I would not come back again unless someone dragged me.
I have to say the staff were pleasant to deal with and they took my feedback seriously.

Cannot walk in for dinner. Only open for reservations. Come very far just to eat there but got rejected by the staff. 👎🏻👎🏻

Hoody’s has recently renovated their place and given it a fresh look. Their bbq ribs are the best in town - absolutely delicious!!

The pork rib here is one of the best in town. Not too dry, meat is soft and just nice. It comes with few selection of sauce.
Ambiance is a bit dark with their low lighting. Wish that they have more choices for drinks and drafted beer. how could you not drink a freshly drafted ice cold beer when you have a nice pork ribs on the plate ;)

I have been to so many restaurants serving ribs and I can confidently say this place has the best ribs. Soft and succulent, topped with Howdy's BBQ sauce. Very good service and very fast. Best restaurant to go to for Western food.

Just went to Howdy's. As our car was about to pull out from the parking spot, the kind waiter ran towards us with my handbag - i had forgotten about my handbag in my seat. I am so so sooo thankful for the honest and suuuper helpful staff! Overall the staff were really helpful with our orders, needs, and payment. All of the staff that we interacted with were extremely friendly and patient. Their cajun wings are delicious, steaks not bad, and the overall atmosphere and setting great for families. Definitely recommend this place!!

We love their food especially their grilled chicken and grilled pork belly. We ordered triple platter so you get to choose 3 types of meat. It's fantastic when you coupled with beer. The waitress are very polite and efficient too. Remember to make your reservation before dine-in especially during weekend. They hired some part time magician to entertain you while waiting for food to be served.

Had a Beef steak and a bit gammy taste further it is't not even tender. Too much sweetness in Potato salad (is it added with sugar?), however your customer service and ambiance considered as GOOD. Guys, please improve on your quality of food.

A friend took us here this evening and the combo plate ribs and lamb steak was fantastic, great BBQ sauce and tasty/juicy ribs….big lamb steak and the cole slaw was excellent. Friendly staff…. we loved it. Now i see the reviews posted and i wonder if i was in the same place…. I notice the dates and conclude that things/people have changed here…. do yourself a favour and give this place another change as now it is up to quality standards
