Fatty Crab Reviews

Good food. Better to come early before 7pm as u might have to queue up very long.

Best crab in Kuala Lumpur. Very unique taste and very different from run of the mill chillies crab which is more tomato paste and sweet chillies sauce. Fatty crab is more spicy tamarind sauce but a very unique blend of spices. Nice cooling sugar cane drink which was boiled with 'matai'. The other stalls has satay and very nice charred grill chicken wings. A very satisfying dinner!!!

Its been 4 years ever since i visited here and the taste is still so satisfying. Crab meat is delicious and the sour and spicy gravy is something you would die for. Their menu is small but everything is nice. Chicken wings are good too. Love this place and hope it wont take me another 4 years to pay another visit.

Decent crab restaurant with limited menu choices. Crabs are decent and small sized (nothing special) but their price is remarkably high, yet many people still queue for it lol.

Sweet, taste good. Crab is also normal compared to Vietnam

Very delicious sweet steam crab and garlic fried prawn.

Can't fathom their pricing for prawns, we ordered a small portion, probably 300g, it came with 6 pieces of prawn and its RM 50! I've had better seafood with larger portion at more affordable price in other restaurants. I can understand this pricing if the food's exceptional, but it's really not! Their crab is flavorful but not to my preference. Not gonna visit this restaurant in the future.

Only crab is good. Price slightly on the high side. You get what you pay for. Fresh

Good place to have some freshly cooked crabs along with some beer. Would advise one to reserve a table as this place is always full.

One of the famous in Klang Valley. Nice sweet sour crabs with the bun too, fried rice and the chicken wings (while waiting). Ordered 2kg for 3 pax and you got about 2.5 crabs. Luckily the queue was not that crazy like before. Parking can be challenging too, so can park near a construction side and walk for few mins.

Lovely fried rice, chicken wings, crab. Horrible wait for seats. Can improve on how they managed waiting queue.

Still the best chili crab in town. Quality wise remain the same for 15 years.

Juicy plump crab and scrumptious seafood!

The crab sauce is an interesting blend of sour and spicy, not quite as pungent or thick as Singaporean Chilli Crab. The bread that comes with it is disappointingly limp and a far cry from crispy mantous.

The fried rice is most tasty and the ang hea fish with tomato is well done. The drinks are fair, and the restaurant is warm and with your typical kopitiam setup.

Service is mediocre and pricing is quite high (but acceptable by KL seafood standards, I suppose). Crab is over RM40 per head, fish is over 150, and for 6 pax is almost RM450.

Long Q , they only serve 4 dishes .
/
1)Crab not fresh n taste so so ..
2)steam fish is good
3)garlic pawn is ok .
4) fried rice not bad

Price is on the high side .. not worth the wait n price

fresh crab. recommended the fried rice to b eaten with sweet spicy crab

Tasted good. But i guess i pick the wrong sauce for the crab. Too sour n sweet for me.

Great place for crab. Ordered both steamed and spicy sour sauce with toast. Both were good. Other dishes such as fried rice and steamed fish were good as well. No vegetables served here though, so definitely not for vegetarians.

Given that it's a famous restaurant, it's not very hygienic and unkind and the crab is empty. I couldn't eat it though I wasn't so picky but the beer was cool and the fried chicken wings were delicious

Blog Search A restaurant where I wanted to taste chili crab before going to Singapore
I was worried that I waited a lot after the opening hours, but I didn t wait even after 6 o'clock.
It's hard to say anything because I first tried crab, but it was spicy, sweet and delicious
Towels are a standard setting on the table, so you will be charged 0.4 ringgit per person unconditionally.
I ask if I want to add toast, but I shine
It's baked bread, but it doesn't go well with the sauce
The fried rice is really good
900 grams of crab, 3 wings, fried rice, 2 large beer bottles, 2 towels, 2 toast
Please note that I ordered 141.1 ringgit.
I made a feeling with my mom for the right amount

Price is extremely unreasonable. Food taste below average. It made no sense that their reviews are good?! They are no where near average. There are so many restaurants out there that charge lower and taste so much better. I'm so so disappointed.

After 40 mins line up, we could have a seat on 2nd floor with air-cond and
in a feast. Fried
Yakitori and Sate are also delicious.

Crab is tasty. Not many varieties. Not serving any veggie dishes.

Love it! Fresh Crabs and Lobsters with a very smooth yet savvy sauce.

Still one of my favourite seafood places to visit every time I go to KL. The crab has been my family favourite for close to 20 years, and still holding strong.

should be 5 stars but they get 4 because the crab is not fresh! other than that all good!

have been eating at fatty crab since forever - generally the only place we go for crab, the best chicken wing and fried rice & sugar cane! a bit on the pricey side but food is good.

Easy place to have delicious crab. Sweet and sour sauce is their selling point

This is one restaurant that one has to be early if you wanna enjoy their crabs, fried rice and fried chicken wings. Queue is long especially during weekends or holidays. Menu is limited and they do not serve pork here.

Need to get there quite early, after 6pm will be very busy. Try the chicken wings and satay, really good. Prawns and crab are excellent.

This place is still hands down one of my favourite crab restaurant in the world. I've been to many restaurants that serve crab but each time I leave I still tend to utter the words "Fatty Crab still better la". Without a doubt, each trip back to Malaysia, my family and I will always stop by and grab a take out. My parents visit them regularly. The crabs that they use are fresh and sweet. The sauce goes exceptionally well with the fried rice, absolutely to die for. Love them to bits!

Good food. Go before 6pm before the crowds comes in

Very tasty crab cooked in special source. Price quit high but worth the money. Do also try their fried rice and chicken wings. Highly recommended.

Great food however, service is super slow. Go for their unique combo eg. Oreo cheese crab

Excellent food, crab was fresh and the sauce was delicious. Surprisingly, the fried rice was the star!

The chicken wings are amazing !!!! I'm not a seafood fan but my mates really enjoyed it. Tip: go early or late to avoid standing in the queue to be seated

Very delicous crabs, prawn and frien rice. Well recommended. Tq

Famous restaurant with nice food. Crab, fried rice and fried chicken wings are highly recommended

Great for the whole family, super limited menu so only go if you love crab!

It's a busy busy place and you can reserve a table. So be prepared to wait. The most recommended dishes are Nasi Goreng, Chili Crab, Steam Fish, Chicken Wings, Fried Prawns and bread. Also bring lots of cash, they don't accept cards.

As usual, crowded and long queue. Good wise, worth the long waiting time.

Nice big crab, choice of spicy or original steam. Must go early, or else, long queue.

Anymore
It's not old taste ...

This seafood restaurant need to Q.. About 30 minutes, taste is good but a bit pricey and medium size serving.
Sweet and sour sauce crab, Signature fried rice and Fried chicken wings must try.

The crabs were fresh, the atmosphere is family friendly and it is a good place to bring the family for dinner especially for celebrations. Really nice.

The dishes was tasty and reasonable price as compared to my previous visit to similar seafood restaurant which I'm getting lesser dishes but paid much higher price

Still a tourist spot, food so so, service so so , choices limited

Eventhough sometimes u have to queue for your seat .it worth the wait...The crab,friedrice n the chicken wing is a must have menu in my list..It is super delicioussss ..Very high recommended for those who love crab so much..You can eat the gravy with mantou or bread and you will definitely ask for more..Trust me!

Came here for dinner. Usually it is packed but due to RMCO, it was not as packed as usual. Ordered the crab, fried rice and fried chickens. The taste are OK. Ordered both sweet and sour and steamed. The crab is meaty. Fried chickens are quite nice too. The bread is normal and not really suit in any of our dishes. Staffs are quite friendly if you got the nice one. Prices are OK as well.

Sauce for the crabs was dilute and not quite up to the usual standards.

Comfort food...fried rice with sweet sour crab is fantastic

I have never eaten such a special, delicious fried crab, sour and spicy.
Crab's sauce dripping rice is first class, remember to order the toast to stick the sauce.
Fried chicken wings a bit grabbed the limelight of fried crabs, very tasty, very delicious.

Crab are fresh & juicy. Side dishes like chicken wings & satay.

The place is not known for its decor but their chilli crab is something to dream about :) it's not the usual red color chilli crab, it's more grey if anything and it's more spicy than usual but tasty all the same.dont forget to take the fried rice and chicken wings as wrll

Crab Worth a try. Price for Other selection is way overpriced.

Between Fatty Crab & LaLa Chong, hmm this is a tough call. They are tide in the number 1 spot for me. Fatty Crab as the name suggests, is the best of the best.

Unique sauce for the crab. If you like the sour taste, it would be delicious. The fried chicken wings there is also good.

Overrated hot garbage.

Fresh crab mixed with not so fresh crab. The crab sauce looks like puke and taste plain salty and little sour, nothing special.

Fried rice taste worse than home-cooked ones.

Prawn was fresh and taste okay-ish.

Only have one choice of tea leaves and they put too much leaves into the pot. Most people either drink soft drinks or beers.
