Fresh lobster, large prawns, large scallops, clams, and fish. Good corn. Meaty dungeness crab The bee hoon was fine. Only the calamari was too soft From earlier orders: Black pepper crab ($128) - Fresh. Lobster roll ($56.80) - Fresh. Fried rice - Excellent. Especially the crab meat but also the rice. Enjoyed the fresh prawns, crab and clams.

Halfway through our dining, met with flickering disco lights and clubbing music. It isn’t nice when you’re eating and the disco lights flickers right in front of you. Definitely not suitable for family dining.

We were there to celebrate my husband's graduation and we really have a good time. We enjoyed the family feast with better crab option. The seafood were very fresh and the crab have so much meat. The fried rice was very tasty. So was the fries. The waiters were very attentive too. The only thing is the tables are very close to each other. So you can simply hear the next table talking. Not a good place to catch up but a good place for seafood.

Dine for 3 pax for dinner. Ordered the mixed w crab, prawns, oyster, etc. in cajun sauce, too spicy. We also add the crispy octopus (not crispy at all). Bill close to $150 w UOB card we got $20 discount. Overall, it's a good place if your craving for crab & seafood.
