Very good food, in particular the soft shell crab is amazing. Very good king red crab. Nice atmosphere and good service. Price in line with the quality.
I like fancy Crab restaurant and every one week I go same restaurant because have nice food and not Sam Annie restaurant and I well happy if you add more menu
The restaurant is within walking distance from bond street station so it's very practical to get to. The decor is very calm and I loved the beautiful crab themed paintings on the wall. We were sat just in front of the kitchen where crab legs are beautifully displayed and you can see the food being prepared. The tables in here are the ever so famous marble look which is perfect for catching those beautiful instagram shots. Service was good but there were only 4 other customers in the restaurant when I was there, I cannot speak for how it would be at a later time. I would suggest that the waiter not push you to buy a crabs leg. It isn't filling and I specifically asked for something filling. I had to ask for the lunch menu which should've been given with the regular menu. I chose the crab bites which are basically a posh prawn cracker with crab and mayo filling. However it tasted INCREDIBLE, I couldn't get enough of the flavours, especially when I bit into the coriander leaf. We then ordered 4 of each of the fresh oysters which were beautifully presented and tasted extremely fresh and delicious. I then ordered the soft shell crab from the lunch menu and the pairing and flavour was a very unique one. I'd say you need an acquired taste for zesty flavours and definitely be someone who enjoys Kimchi. The soft shell crab also had a funny taste in the head but I still ate it as I was hungry. Unfortunately for my cousin she did not enjoy the dish and couldn't eat it. She was compensated with 2 free desserts in the end which was kind. Drinks are quite expensive for those of you that drink. Expect to pay more for your drink than some items off the menu. Overall it was a hit and miss with my visit but I'd definitely visit again to try the crabs legs.
Great food. Lovely atmosphere and definitely worth another visit !!!
Very pleasant inside the restaurant, with Red King Crabs in the glass display, pictures on the wall and on the menu/table mat. We received helpful and great service from Emanuel. For starters, we had guacamole and crispy king crab bites, both very good. Had the baked merus of the crab, it was a smallish portion but was very tasty, enough to get the taste of the Red King Crab. My wife had the chicken which was excellent. An enjoyable dining experience.
the actual crab is divine but the service is slow and the rest of the food is average. Don't bother with anything else but the crab.
Convenient location, good design and layout, but could be somewhat smaller, as lacks athmosphere and cozyness when the venue is half full. Amazing baked king crab leg, decently priced, rest of the menu is too vast, starters couldbe better, had the crab cakes and crab claw.
What a treat. Went for the half king crab over charcoal with all the sides and it did not disappoint. A little pricey perhaps but will be back to sample more.
never tell a client that they can only keep table for 90 minutes when restaurant is 10% full.. waiter service was excellent portions too small/prices too high
Great service and food ... staff very polite and attentive coupled with a good atmosphere.. what more could you want from a restaurant.. loved it.
Had the 50% off Hot Dinners brunch offer, it was amazing - crab was succelent and brush dishes well presented and delicious. Environment lovely as well.
