I had booked a table at fancy grab. When I arrived The waitress dressed in a black suit told me that my table was ready and a few of the guests had already arrived (pointing at a table where two black men were sat) . I had to correct her that I had another table booked and I wasn’t with those men, I couldn’t help but think this was because I am a black female. Why else would she of assumed I was to be sat with two strangers ?

Good food but they are trying to make it a party place with the music being way too loud but no atmosphere for success. They are confused about their target audience.

I went to Fancy crab a year ago and thought the food was amazing. Huge choice of different oysters and the menu was quite large. They did a whole crab claw with salad and chips, SO good! This time the menu was quite different... I was disappointed to see the large oyster menu gone and replaced with only three types... (only one remained due to selling out). The choice of crab meat gone too... I had the crab burger which was nice my other half had crab grilled with cheese, again nice. The best thing however was our starter, grilled octopus. Made up for everything!

The environment and service was really nice. The staff were smiley and ready to help. We had the set lunch menu. The food quality was really good however improvements can be made as the portions were really small especially for a main.

I love visiting Fancy crab and the food was amazing! I just like to comment that food took a while to arrive and then In between the starters and the second there was a long gap. Also the eggs benedict were great but too small for the price, this should be at least two eggs or if one should come with something else! The smoothie was great but warm :( I think it would be nicer with a bit of ice!

The food is amazing and the staff excellent. Using King crab means the Singapore chili crab is just the meat, no shell which is a bit disappointing but still excellent. The vegetarian burger is good and our waiters wine choice of the Reisling was excellent. The bill was not outrageous either. We enjoyed it and would return.

Great food, atmosphere and decor. Only improvement would be to have an mid-high priced mixed warm & cold seafood platter for sharing. I would come every week for it. But the waitress was so very helpful and suggested we buy the premium platter and mains in order to get at the hotel & cold seafood so we didn’t just that. Had a lovely time & will be returning with friends!

Arrived at 18.10 and one of the starters was not available so that’s the only reason it didn’t get top marks as everything else was delicious service was great but at that time of evening not many people were in restaurant so that might be the reason but highly recommend this place

The menu looked very promising, and had a few stand out items such as the oysters and the Jerusalem artichoke ... but unfortunately the mains were a major disappointment. The Singapore chilli crab was nothing at all like its namesake, and the lobster tagliatelle was all tomatoes and no flavor

We visited this restaurant on Friday night at 6.30pm when it was relatively empty. The service was dire and we had to keep asking a waitress to take our orders. The food was very sparse and tastleless. The bill was very expensive for what we had.
