Great selection of seafood. If you like crab, you won't go wrong here. Many varieties of crab and varied styles of cooked crab. Nice simple ambiance as well.

This place has a bit of a cult following so make sure you come early or call for reservations. They do really good seafood and make a tasty chili, salted egg, or tanghoon crab. The razor clams are good too! The food is generally prepared Singaporean Chinese tze char style.

A local joint for Crab... Not your regular chilly crabs... My coworker took me there and we had Claypot crab which is bit soupy, butter crab and cereal shrimp... everything was great except the wait...yes we waited for an hour in line and then hour for food...we got there at 5:50 and left at 9. So be prepared to wait and food will be worth it.

Great seafood - chili crab, paper crab, fish,prawns,... they also serve meat, vegetable, and other dishes. We (a large group of more then 10) went, all of us enjoyed the meal. Rank very high as a local chili crab and seafood place. This is my 3rd visit.

The Grab driver told us that this is a smart choice for chilli crab because it is less expensive but better taste. Locals eat here when it is chilli crab mission. The walk in Q was scarily long, but we were able to order while in line. The food came out, and every single dish that we ordered was delicious.

Two things to order - crab bee hoon soup in claypot - butter crab - ok maybe add fried buns (mantou) You can skip the rest. You are only here for the crabs, nothing but crabs. The bad is the long wait, averaging 1-2 hours, though it seemed like the wait is more 45-60 mins now. Even at 9pm on a Thursday night, the line was still there. It only disappeared at 930pm. You are warned. Make reservations though they do not take it during the 15 days of Chinese New Year. Now why the crabs? The crab bee hoon soup is just very tasty. The taste is similar to the fish bee hoon soup but this is sweeter and tastier. The butter crab is to die for. The butter cream is so tasty and perfect to dip the mantou in. We had 3 crabs for 5 persons and it was just nice.

Finally visited Mellben after YEARS of everyone telling me that we should go. Firstly, make reservations. If not, you'll wait for a long time. Even with reservations, you have to wait! Secondly, know that this place is pricy. If you're having crabs, be prepared to drop a good dime here. Estimate about $90 for a medium crab--good for 2 or 3, I think. We got the butter crab and crab bee hoon. Crab bee hoon is the classic dish here and everyone gets it. It is very good. Add more soup and bee hoon; it is worth it. The butter crab is good too, and has a more heavy flavor and is also very creamy. Both were delicious. The crabs are fresh and the meat is plentiful and succulent. After all, you're paying good money for these crabs. The other side orders are good too. We got rojak chicken, tofu with pork floss and mushrooms, and salted egg pork ribs. The salted egg pork ribs were not very meaty, unfortunately. Come here for crabs. The crabs are so good. It would have been 5 stars if it weren't so pricey, were less touristy and had a better reservation/queue system.

As everyone knows this is the best spot for crabs in Singapore. Well this was the only spot I visited due to the amount of time I had here. You can get crab cooked in different ways, but the most popular is the chili crab. And the fried mon taos seem to be popular and used to soak up the sauces. And don't be like me trying to muscle through some of the crab pieces. I ended up slicing my finger pretty bad. Ask for a cracker or something to get into it. We ordered way too much food, but my cousins wanted to try as much as we could since it was our last night. The food was bomb, but the price is super expensive. I think the total came out to about 350 USD for the 4 of us. We didnt make reservations but we only waited about 20 minutes for a table. Highly recommend you to try out if visiting Singapore. Just make sure you dont eat and jet, they have cameras and pictures of ppl who've done it before - lmao

This is one of the place you had to go when you are craving for crabs. This is my 2nd visit here and I really love the way they cook the crabs here. This outlet which I went is located at Ang Mo Kio, it is just located right below a HDB. I went to this place on 2 separate occasion and it's always bustling with people. There's a huge carpark located infront of the restaurant and fret not there's plenty of car lot. But try to avoid popping by during dinner time as this is a residential area so car lot might be limited. We order quite a number of dish that night and it was a treat by a friend therefore I can't state the bill for the meal. 1) Signature Crab Beehoon Soup 5/5 This is a must to try, the broth make you go drooling and it's so flavourful as the beehoon and crab is cook together. I always ask for extra portion of soup as it's really very good. 2) Salted Egg yolk Crab 4/5 Anything cook with salted egg yolk is always so yummy. The crab is coated with salted egg yolk and the flavour just blend in so well which keep your finger locking good 3) Butter Crab 4/5 Oh my, the mantou really goes well with the butter sauce and the children keep dipping into the sauce with their mantou and crab. I think this really tells you how good it is. 4) Cereal Prawn 4/5 This is one of my all time favourite, love the fragrant smell of the cereal and Prawn. They just simply blend in and the Prawn is so crunchy. If you ever pop by here, pls order their signature crab beehoon soup. Trust me it's really very very good.

We brought our overseas guests here on a rainy saturday evening. Have warned them about the snaky q as we did not make any reservations, but it wasnt that bad actually, perhaps because of the rain. We were seated down after about 15 mins & our food arrived 15 mins later. We had the crab with bee hoon soup, butter crab & chilli crab with fried mantous (dough). For drinks we had the fresh coconut ($5) each. Our guests love this place & declare it as the most delicious crab they have ever eaten in Sg. In their 1 week trip here, they have tried at least 5 different places for crabs. The place is full of tourists & locals. Price is stated clearly & size of the crabs. Check out the wall of fame in the restaurant. This place is not air conditioned. 5 of us shared 3 small crabs.
