Our Story
Born on
the high seas
Since 1972, The Ship has been Malaysia's most beloved Western dining institution. Founded by Mr. Foo Hee Hoon, our Bukit Bintang flagship occupies a building shaped like a real ship's hull — one of KL's most recognisable landmarks. Step aboard for air-flown steaks, tableside flambé, fresh lobsters from the tank, and staff in full maritime uniform.
The flame.
The craft.
The legend.
Every great steak starts with the right cut, an expert hand on the grill, and a tradition of excellence refined over five decades. At The Ship, every plate is a tribute to the craft that made us Malaysia's most iconic steakhouse.

The Ship was founded by Mr. Foo Hee Hoon in 1972 and quickly became the gold standard for Western fine dining in Malaysia. Our Bukit Bintang flagship — shaped like an actual ship's hull — has been a KL landmark for over 50 years. Every visit is a voyage.
