Excellent food and the atmosphere was lovely. We went on Sunday for my birthday and the enjoy the bottomless Prosecco - which was a great treat. The staff were brilliant and even gave us a free dessert to celebrate. Highly recommend.

Tasty food and friendly staff. For the price you pay you do expect it to be perfect (some food was a bit under done or a bit overdone) and felt a bit rushed as staff were getting ready to close for NYE

Despite eye contact with 3 members of staff upon entering, no one came over. Not so much as a smile from female staff who looked like they couldn't wait to go home. The male waiter however was friendly and helpful. Food was good but service and atmosphere is everything. A bit of a let down having spent £175 for two of us.

Had a great pre theatre dinner at the fancy crab. Premium seafood platter is lovely as a starter for two or main for one. King crab was also delicious! Lovely atmosphere and Service excellent and we will be returning to try the rest of the menu!

The food is very expensive for the portion size. I ordered half a lobster but it was basically just a shell with hardly any meat in it. I didn’t feel satisfied. I also wouldn’t say that the food tasted particularly special considering the price. The restaurant was very quiet and even tho they were not busy our waitress did not remember a few things we had asked for, like condiments for our food, but they still added the service charge on to the bill.

Had a lovely lunch for my partners birthday! Nice atmosphere, attentive service and delicious food. Singapore chilli crab is a must have! A wonderful surprise at the end of the meal in a form of a birthday dessert for my partner. Thank you so much Fancy Crab 😁

Food was very good and service was professional. If anything the welcome at the restaurant was relatively cold. Not unfriendly but did not make us feel any special either. The crab was indeed very tasty.

Nice atmosphere and you can watch your food being prepared. Portions of the dishes on the fixed lunch menu are not huge but are very tasty. The crab of the a la carte is delicious

Overall setting very nice. Wouldn't say that food was much better than any other seafood place. Gentlemen that looked after us at the beggining was amazing ( unfortunately didnt catch his name) . However once we finished it took ages to be able to ask anyone for bill and to pay it. Overall maybe will come back.

It’s a nice place with niche selection of dishes that include crab..... not sure about value for money. Nice atmosphere for informal dinner with nice jazz music on the background.

The staff and service was great.we had the bottomless Prosecco deal and our waitresses kept us topped up all evening.My only criticism is that the crab used in a crab restaurant looked and tasted like crab sticks!!! So I was abit disappointed in the food but everything else was great

Stick to the fresh seafood which is fabulous. The battered food was not good. The batter was far too thick and chewy... Service was with a smile though and efficient for the busy pre Xmas week.

The staff are not very attentive to customers ongoing needs. They go back and forth past the tables without asking if things are ok if a customer wants anything else. The food is overpriced and Lobster and Burger are much better....

Fabulous food, all delicious. WE had the Premium seafood platter, in addition the seared scallops although they missed off 1 portion, oysters and King Crab Leg gratin, with a tomato juice cocktail that has a crab claw in it. Restaurant beautifully decorated for Christmas, staff very friendly. Negatives- we were sat in the window, great for attracting customers to the restaurant, too cold for us. There was space further in that we could have been given. The table needed clearing more often as we had so many plates, but we had to ask for this to be done. Would highly recommend.

We ordered the Singapore chilli crab and the curry wasn’t close to the real thing. Also disappointed by the small amount of actual crab meat in the portion. Not worth the money!!

Warm & friendly staff with excellent service. We ate from the lunchtime set menu which gave each of us a good selection. Added a couple of oysters each as a starter And ended a leisurely lunch. Would definitely recommend you try it.

I was really very disappointed with the restaurant. Myself and my friend found it overpriced for very small portions of food. We won't be going back and I will not be recommending to my friends. No atmosphere either.
