Mission & story

If you cook it, you cook it on fire

Jonny Brisket started from one stubborn idea: that brisket deserves the same respect on Phuket that it gets in Texas. Twelve hours in the smokehouse, no shortcuts, no sous-vide, no finishing it in a pan because service got busy.

The rule extends past the beef. Fish, vegetables and seafood all go over the same coals. The open kitchen is not a design choice. It is there so you can watch whether we mean it.

The specialty is brisket. Everything else on the menu had to earn its place next to it.

The board

Six cuts worth the drive

Grass-fed eats leaner and tastes more of beef. Grain-fed carries the marbling. We serve both so you can pick a side.

Everything else follows the same rule: fish, vegetables and seafood all go over the same fire. Grass-fed and grain-fed cuts run from a ฿890 ribeye to a ฿2,190 porterhouse.

How much does a steak cost at Jonny Brisket?

Steaks at Jonny Brisket run from ฿890 to ฿2,190. A grass-fed ribeye is ฿890 for 250 g, a grain-fed ribeye ฿1,590 for 350 g, a T-bone ฿1,990 for 550 g and a porterhouse ฿2,190 for 550 g. Tomahawk is priced by weight at ฿480 per 100 g. Fillet mignon is ฿990 grass-fed or ฿1,490 grain-fed.

Where exactly is Jonny Brisket in Phuket?

Jonny Brisket is at 15 Lagoon Rd, Choeng Thale, Phuket 83110, in the Bang Tao and Laguna area on the west coast, not in Phuket Town. It is a short drive from the Laguna resorts and Bang Tao beach.

What time does Jonny Brisket open and close?

Jonny Brisket is open every day from 12:00 to 23:00. Delivery runs from 12:00 to 22:00. The kitchen takes last orders shortly before closing, so for a full steak service arrive by 22:00.

Do I need to book a table?

Booking is recommended at Jonny Brisket, especially for dinner and for groups of four or more. Evenings fill up because of the live music, and the large-format cuts like the porterhouse and tomahawk are worth telling the kitchen about in advance. You can book on this site, by phone on +66 81 254 5512, or on WhatsApp.

Is there anything for vegetarians?

Yes. Jonny Brisket cooks vegetables over the same fire as the meat. Grilled vegetables and grilled corn with chimichurri are ฿200 each, the eggplant salad and goat cheese with beetroot are ฿290, and the homemade pickles start at ฿150. The restaurant is built around beef, so a vegetarian will eat well but will not have the run of the menu.
