IKEA JB Has $18 Buffet Dinner Till 27 March, Get Unlimited Meatballs And More

This is available from Mondays to Thursday, 7pm to 9:30pm, from now till 27 March 2025. To enjoy the buffet, you’ll need to purchase a ticket from either the Swedish Restaurant or Swedish Food Market, both of which are located within IKEA Tebrau.

You’ll receive a RM10 IKEA voucher with every adult ticket, making this buffet an even better deal. Each day of the buffet promises a slightly different menu, though some IKEA staples are recurring.

For instance, the ever-popular Beef Meatballs with Brown Sauce & Lingonberry Jam are always available, as are the Signature Fried Chicken Wings and Signature Chicken Spring Rolls. What changes each day is the selection of local dishes.

Some items you can expect to see include Beef Rendang, Beef Kerutuk Curry, Chicken Briyani and more. Each day will also have a noodle station, where either Curry Mee or Mee Rebus are on offer. Aside from the buffet, you’ll find a few festive specials to try.

These include the Chicken in Spicy Tomato Sauce (RM11.90) and Lamb Shank Machboos with Tomato Rice and Pickled Vegetables (RM42.90), both of which are hearty dishes packed with plenty of flavour. IKEA’s buffet dinner and festive specials are available at select outlets across Malaysia.
