Fatty Crab Reviews

Good food. Although there is long queue, they put effort to move the line as fast as possible by taking orders early. Dishes are served very fast. Worth the wait.

very own recipe of sweet and spicy crab and pork free restaurant

After all these years still have the best limited traditional sweet or spicy & sour crab. Cash only.

An institution which consistently pleases regulars and a must bring place for visitors to Kuala Lumpur in spite of its suburban locations. Chilli Crab with must have traditional toast, Chicken wings and Fried rice are staples. Add on satay for bigger groups. Come really early as soon as it opens to avoid queues.

the food is so good for who love crabs xpecially..if come late after 5p.m.u must que mayb for 30 minutes or more

fatty crab with its gravy combined with toast, chinese fried rice, with minced garlic n chilli

The cili Crab & chicken wings keeps us coming back.

Tasty, price slightly higher, need go early, too many people's

They serve the best fried rice, sweet and sour crabs, and roasted chicken wings.

The worst sweet sour spicy crab i have ever tasted. Not much variety. Crabs and prawns so small. No vege. Only chicken wings worth eating and that too were from a stall selling at the side, not from Fatty Crab kitchen. Ordered garlic prawns which had no taste. Chilli sauce from the bottle as dip sauce for prawns. This was my first and the last patronising this restaurant.

Many Muslims eat here..No halal status..Chicken & spice do not even know where the source is from..It is hungry. Promise to read no pork served is also allowed.Non Muslims please eat, it is no problem for you.

This is the best place to have chilli crabs. Don't take anything else as substitute. Seafood / chinese retaurants cant beat its special sauce. Once bitten, forever smitten. After more than a decade eating here - the quality has remained the same. Simply marvellous.

After so many years ...they finally accepted credit cards ...

A delicious club shop in Kuala Lumpur. You can order in grams.
The photo is 1.2k, and it is just right to order satay, chicken wing, toast and fried rice with a mast. It is really delicious to eat the toast with sauce. But it's spicier than it looks.
Satay and chicken were rented, so it was a separate account.

Food is delicious.. U will not regret when u eat here..

Got a referral from a friend that this place is a must eat in KL. And indeed the chilli crab is good. Eventhough from the look of it, it looks like the sauce has a lot of cornstarch, but the taste is very good. A little spicy, a little sour, a little sweet. Very good. They also have chicken wings but I find it subpar when compare to the crab. Thank @dada.tastes for the recommendations.

Famous for its crab and chicken wings.. Abit pricy for the crabs

Nice restaurant to go for their seafood dishes. Tasty and delightful. But had to wait for awhile maybe due to crowd. The price also reasonable.

Favorite seafood restaurant without one. Sour and spicy crab, shrimp are delicious

4.2 points (2,385 people) This is an immense rating, so I took the absolute expectation that it would never fail. The price is twice that of Kota Kinabalu, half the freshness, no sauce, no edge. Chicken Wings are just homemade chicken tempura.

Some of them seemed to not speak English
It was delicious and cheap
Distant is the disadvantage

Ketam hanyir..not my favourite..but chicken wings the best..

It's a lot of people and it's unkind, but the price is cheap and it tastes good. Patty Crab 2 Wings 4 Wings Fried Rice 1 Wet the beer with water and only a total of 120 ringgit came out. However, it was a pity that it was not a card and was only a cash. In Malaysia, I admit that it was the most delicious restaurant

highly overpriced but really yummy so we keep going back. advisable to go during weekdays coz very long queues during weekends

Food is good. Have to come early 5pm if no need wait.

Really great...but need to come early to get the table due to alot of people.

it's delicious! The crab, shrimp, and fried rice were all delicious. 3 crabs, 12 shrimps, a pile of fried rice, and deep-fried bread were cleared with 2 kids and 2 ajumma. This is typical of a local restaurant.

Food is unique and fabulous, restaurant always full even in workdays. Close every monday, open only 5pm - 11pm

Chilli crabs always has the right combination of spicy, sweet and sour.

Highly recommended, price is reasonable with 1.5kg crab at rm90 cooked in their signature sauce. Place can get crowded quickly, come early as they open from 4pm to 10pm.

There's a lot of people so need to queue up quite early especially during dinner time. they didn't provide more choices , but all provided food are their signatures. It serves pork free, hence also have muslims having meal there. Their crab is really nice taste, serve fast, if feel need to wait long, there also have other food stall sell chicken wing.

It s delicious, but you have to wait for 30 minutes. It takes 30 minutes to order the order.

This restaurant only serves 8 dishes. But they have master it to God level that so many people willing to queue for their foods.

They serve 2 types of crab - spicy sour and steam only. Personally I like the steam one coz it taste more fresh than the spicy sour one. However I see people order bread to dip the spicy sour sauce. (which I think should taste quite good as well)

Prawn is another highlight here, cooked with some fried garlic, and you can really taste the freshness of those big prawns.

Other than that, you can order some fried chicken/satay/fried rice to go with ur meal.

However the price would be more expensive but that's what u pay for good seafood in town.

One last note is that they only accept cash payment.

Crab and chicken wing are very good, strongly recommended. Fried rice is decent too. Satay is below average, you can get better elsewhere. Quite limited choice but overall a nice restaurant if you love crab.

Good food, but please expect a very very long queue (probably up to 40 mins), price is expensive. Parking around here is okay (which is illegal parking at roadside)

This restaurant is very popular with Malaysians of all races as no pork is served. This is one of our favourite places to have seafood. Their crabs cooked in spicy sour sauce is much sought after. We ordered toasted bread that we dipped into the sauce. In addition we ordered a plate of fried rice, also much sought after. We were overall satisfied with our meal although the crabs were a tad small. Anyway we polished up everything including the sauce . Be sure to go there early as the place tends to be crowded. During this CMCO they are opened at 4pm. I have forgotten the closing time. Sorry!

One of the long established and very popular seafood restaurant specialising on its brand of fresh mud crab meal cooked in spicy sour plum sauce and eaten together with toasted bread slices dipped with the yummy sauce. The menu is limited to fried rice and few other home cooked dishes. For the longer waiting, most patrons would order first the delicious fried chicken wings to savoured. Very crowded during weekends and prices are reasonable.

It has gotten so popular and now service and menu is not the same as many years back. Delicious crabs as usual but with a very very long queue. Price is slightly on the high side.

Great place for family outing.. however Q may be long after 7pm.. they last call is at 9.30pm..closed on Mondays.. for 2 person, 2 crabs and a fried rice can fetch u RM100.

Too crowded. The queue also long. Place is clean and quite organised.

Very tasty crab dishes at a very reasonable price. Waiting is worth it. There is also beer.

We only try the fried rice and crab. For the fried rice really taste normal, and I think many other Chinese restaurants taste better than this. For the crab, hmmmmmmm, if u can travel abit further please try at seremban crab, this fatty crab really nothing special for me

Taste is consistently good over the years - the sweet chilli crab is particularly great. Come early (we lined up at 5.45 pm) and only got our seats half hour later. The line was crazy long outside the restaurant by the time we were seated (granted it was a Sunday and a holiday eve)

as usual if it's a long queue ... food still fanstatic ... marvelous.

Decent food and slightly expensive price. The crab was not as good as expected.

Every time you come to KL, you must eat Fatty Crab (actually PJ?) Every time I order sour and spicy crabs, fried rice and fried chicken (forgot to take pictures), I always remember the deliciousness. It is recommended to go on weekdays and there are too many people on holidays. There is a great organic bakery nearby called Panya Bakery which is also recommended!

Original place in a rather chinese area of KL. Crabs, shrimps and side dishes are great, as are the chicken wings offered in the same place. Furnishing is basic, as usual for street food markets.

Make sure to come early after opening to get a place, otherwise the queue will be unacceptably long.

The chicken wing is so damn good must tryyyy! And of course, the crab. The satay meat is tender and the sauce is good
