Fatty Crab Reviews

Chinese seafood restaurant that also serves no pork no lard. Famous for their chilli crabs, although having tried that and their plain steamed crab, I prefer the latter. The crabs are so fresh, sweet and juicy, I can taste the flavours better when it's just steamed. Price is reasonable at RM90 for 900g, which is one and half crabs. The fried rice is a other favorite: it's got some good wok hei and well charred with good flavours. The final thing that you will not miss is the fried chicken wings--the maddening smell is in the air even as you walk past the shop. And it's well worth the calories: so beautifully seasoned.

It's still ok, but sometimes the savoriness is inconsistent. Not that often, thankfully

Please try the crab with steam bread! It's increadible! So much lovely for this restaurant. The service are so fast also the price are so affordable!

I really don't understand what is the hype of this restaurant. Food taste is mediocre. Coffee shop environment at 5 star food prices. Prices are extremely exorbitant for the quality of crab and prawns we got. This is our first and last time. Fatty Crab for fatty wallet people.

After eating for so many years, it is still so delicious. Although I have to line up to take the seat, I won't wait for a long time.

Fried rice, hot and sour crab, bread, beer ~ the best match!

Chicken wings is okay, but not fried rice and the "sweet and sour" crabs, not even fresh. Not worth the price

Slightly overrated in my opinion, plus the waitresses can get very impatient due to the stress of having to handle such a large crowd on a daily basis so don't be offended if they start being impolite to you haha

Fresh ~
Yummy ~

The atmosphere was pleasant and homely.
It is not a neat shop.

Fresh and affordable crabs, and serves plenty of other chinese cooked food.

Tried both the crabs, was delicious. Chicken wing is good. Satay is average. Waiting time for table is about 30mins.

Everything was awesome, except for the ridiculous price getting more expensive each & every year..

Pricey and limited choice... Anyway taste still good

This place "people mountain people sea", absolutely packed with long queues almost everyday.

It was our first visit, queued for almost 45mins.

Crabs are sold at RM55 for 600grams or about RM91 per kg.

The chilli crab tasted ok.

Overall, its not too bad but I still wont understand the non ending crowd who seems to like this place.

The Sauce they use for the Crab is very tasty and superb!

A famous Malaysian foods which we should be proud of because it attract all races to taste it.

must have the chicken wing, fried rice & crab sauce!!! syiok!

Amazing food and fascinating venue. There is no menu, just an old lady that takes your name and order at the entrance and sits you down when it is your turn. Each plate must be paid individually when it arrives on the the table.
Order the crab (careful sauce is spicy) and the chicken skewers satay.

As the name suggests they are famous for their crabs........ chilli mud crabs in particular. Their garlic prawns yummy as well. Also they make nice chicken wings. Worth trying if you love chilli mud crabs

Good food every time. Consistently good. Fast service.

Been here several times, not get disappointed any single time

Yang Zhou fried rice & fried chicken wing is much much nicer than the crab. Out of expectations the crowd is crazy here. Queue from 730pm and sit down at 815pm. Finished at 930pm and the queue is same.

Awesome place to eat, come early or you'll que like you've never que before.

Signature dish yummy chilli crab dipped with toasted bread. Grilled delicious chicken wings, seaf

Our family love the chicken wings and fried rice here. In our opinion, while the crab dish is decent, it is overrated. The satay meat is bland and sauce portion rather small, though sufficient

Great place for fantastic crab, a choice of steamed crab or spicy crab. Don t forget to order bread to soak up the sauce!
Beef & chicken satay and chicken wings are also a must try!

Good foods but need to come early to queue for table.

1 of the best crab shop
There is a speculation on halal, if you are in doubt don't eat it but as for my understanding the food are halal.

Crab, chicken wing and fried rice.

Very good chilli crab & d fried rice hv eggs+ lots of sea food. They also hv fried chicken wings by another seller which is very hot.

The food is super good. Don't miss the crab abd the fried rice. The crab is extremely fresh. Normally I do not eat crab but here I feel crazy to it. Strongly reconmmended.

The crab tastes so good, many people have to line up for a while

The crabs is fresh with special sauce , and they only offer few dishes which is crabs with bread toast, fried rice and fried chicken. But it always have to queue up even weekdays too

Hmmm. A bit disappointed this time. The smell was of salt water and crabs werent as fresh as before. Still cheaper than some. Paid about $140 rm for 2 crabs.

Just go early, you'll get a table at 5pm, or else be prepared to wait for hours. They don't have much of a menu, just super fresh crabs in spicy sour sauce, not the typical chili or pepper. They also sell by weight in katis or 600gm for you metric folk, RM 55 per Kati. Besides crabs, they have fried rice, and I think that is it. Other stalls sell fried chicken wings rm3, beef or chicken satay rm1, both are good.

Never failed me. The crab is fresh. The sauce is very delicious. Order the toast and eat it with the sauce. Their chicken wing also a must have along with the fried rice.

Crab taste amazing. Very good combination with toasted bread. Place just xoxo. Need to come early or have to wait for long queue.

The best Crab n sauce in town.... not to forget the chicken wings

Sedap. Seriously. Things to try: have the toast with the Chili Crab Sauce. To die for.

It is delicious,
Do not provide sanitary gloves.

Fresh nipah crabs home cooked with sweet sour special delicious spicy sauce, special fried rice & spicy fried chicken wings

Good foods = long queues, but that's fine.

What's not is they didn't even let my toddler finished their ever famous fried rice and kept all our plates making way for new customers.

Had to carry away my daughter while she points at the rice "mum mum".

So ya, will be my last visit there.

Long queue but for thise wulling will get their seats for a good meal of crabs.

Limited choice of cuisine types. Maybe because people want to cook only 1 or 2 types of dishes quickly. Vegetables are no longer available at 8 p.m. Portionwise all is enough as they recommend following people. Price is as expected.

Love the food. Probably the best place for Crab lover in KL. Must try crab, fried rice, and fried chicken wing. Highly recommended!

Good service good taste. But if you're looking for the value for money, too many other places serve good crabs

Nice food but don't expect friendly service. Expect long queue/waiting time

Sweet n sour crab aka chilli crab which doesn't look the best but super damn tasty that u won't stop after the 1st bite. We ordered the fried rice and steamed prawns too. Be sure to reach early else u gotta wait in the Q.

Crab was good. But quite pricey... Less selection even don't have a vegetable dishes.... Only got fried rice no white rice...

Let me to be honest to the public. The food variety just not good, taste also felt very normal. Satay just felt not like satay, as for the crab just really normal. But the fried chicken sell there is amazing. Last but not least, the workers are extremely not friendly at all. Requested to refill my tea pot keep on saying wait with a grudge on her face. I felt really disappointed.

3.8stars. Well... The crab is a bit spicy and sweet. I like it but not overwhelming. I went there before 5:00 so no queue. If i waited, i may rate it lower. Overall good food and price.

I come here if Im craving for crabs! ..Its crabs dishes and nasi goreng are the 2 popular dish, which make ppl keep-on coming here. BUT...if you want to eat here, I suggest u come here half-an-hour early frm its opening hour, coz the Q will be long...

The crab is fresh and delicious, and the wings are delicious. Fried rice also has a certain standard. Many people but the service is good, but the price is slightly higher.

Food is above average. I still believe Fatty Crab Restaurant is over rated!

One of the best restaurant for crab lovers. The most delicious crab dish served here in the town.

Great crab . Amazing gravy. No wonder this place is always packed ..

Very popular crab restaurant. Have to come early or risk waiting in long line.

Special and unique good crab sauce flavor.
Food food! But may need to wait long to be seated especially during holidays and weekends.

Delicious crab. Have to queue for seat and service is fast.
