Whole Red Crab was wonderfully fresh. 6 of us still struggled to finish the whole crab. Not a meal for 2! Really liked the Soft shell Crab Bao. Left the restaurant in a crab coma ! Lovely, will be back.

What a fabulous experience dining at this restaurant where I took my mum for an early Mother's Day evening meal after watching a show. The staff were so friendly (and funny) upon us entering and remained respectfully jovial throughout our meal. A lovely team working together. The food was outstanding and our server recommended what he thought my mum would like and what I would like. We went with his recommendation and my crab leg and shoulder was sweet, succulent, minus any shell and had already been removed from the shell but put back in for presentation. It couldn't have been easier to eat!! Mum had the crab curry which was creamy and plentiful. I have put pics of the restaurant on Facebook and can't wait to get my other friends there to dine. 10/10 Outstanding!

We went on the 50% off special offer and I am so glad we managed to try it out. One of the best seafood meals ever! We had langustin and crab cakes as a starter, then char-grilled crab leg and shoulder as the main. Everything’s full of flavour. The service was excellent and the food was too. However if it wasn't for the half price offer, this would have been a very expensive meal.

The restaurant is a great venue, excellently located. The service was excellent as was the food - Giant Red Crab leg and shoulder. Shared the cheesecake for dessert which I would have given a miss retrospectively.

Lovely staff & great food. The 50% off on the new menu made it particularly worthwhile. Singapore chilli crab was excellent value. The staff were particularly friendly and helpful. I really hope you succeed. Highly recommended.

My husband took me here for my birthday. Slightly tucked away behind oxford street with great interiors and most importantly - fresh seafood. I've been searching for a place like this and I'm so glad it's here. The crab meat is succulent and very fresh. Coming here again to try the soft shell crab bun

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.

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.
