Chili Crab with Crispy Buns & Herbal Drunken Prawn are must eat here. ❥ Mango Pudding is yummy too. Rem to make a reservation for the table along the river , come at 7pm to see the sun slowly set (:

Pepper Crab is so much better to enjoy the fresh taste of the crab than the Chili one. Some cilantros on top go well with the black pepper sauce . Yummy!

SSID : Jumbo-guest. Password : CHILLICRAB. Blackpepper Crab and Chilli Crab is the best. 1 crab equals around 800g. Cost about S$60-70.

Hendy Ongkodjojo

Black pepper crab or chili crab where you can order sweet buns to dip with the chili crab sauce. The salted egg prawns and seafood stuffed beancurd are good side dishes.

Hongjai

A must when in Singapore. Always visit when I come to Sg. The chilli crab is great, the little buns soak up the sauce nicely. Service is a Little slow but don't always need to be rushing.

This place is touristy but still delicious. Love the chili crab with fried buns here. The shark fin soup is also great.

Johnny Wang

(4/5) Get the chili crab ! Mud crab (freshwater) if you like big, meaty claws; Dungeness (saltwater) if you want sweeter meat. Comes plated if you sit outside, and in a metal pot if you sit inside.

Jaime S

The chili crab was worth the wait. There are different ways of cooking it and different types of crabs you can order, so better do a bit of research while you wait.

celina

Chili crabs and pepper crabs are must eat dishes! Don't forget to ask for the little buns to soak up all the sauce!

Ali Mirmoezi

Jellyfish and pork ribs were delicious. Chili crab was perfect, so be ready to get some greasy hands and enjoy the special food of this place. The staff were polite and helpful as well .

Kay Kulkarni

Came here to try Singapore's famous chilli crab - incredible. Make a reservation in advance to avoid hour long queues.

Torzin S

Nice chili crab always go great with fried bun . The shrimp with pumpkin sauce is also lovely. Reservation is recommend.

André Esteves

Had seafood w/dragonfruit, prawns , chili crab and fried rice (dinner , 2pax, 130$). Seafood w/dragonfruit and prawns were great but chili crab is a bit overrated for its price (~70$). View is great!

DxbM

Went for the dragonfruit lobster salad , the braised shark fin with crab meat and the chilli crab - best in Singapore the locals say.. Pics speak a 1000 words ????

Elizabeth Lee

Place a reservation or suffer queuing woes. Chilli crab w fried mantou, Boston lobster are really good here. Ask for bib to prevent sauce stains.

Beeee

Personally I love the Black Pepper Crab more, yet both are good. Classy Chinese seafood and a bit pricy , but it doesn't matter only if you are a seafood fan!

Mei Batubara

Must try chilli crab , black pepper crab , fried bun mantau, cereal prawn , fried rice , seafood stuffed tofu . Ask for the sambal series!

Mark Taber

Ask for a cloth napkin for your lap (not automatically provided) & ur charged for the peanuts they bring out at the beginning so decline them if u don't want. Also, they add 10% tip to the bill.

Joseph

Reservation is a must but if you miss it, walk in as soon as possible before the meal time to get a priority in the waiting queue.

Anson Lah

Good chilli crab , which is the reason why people come here. 18% discount on your chilli crab or pepper crab and your side of buns or rice when you present your Singapore airlines boarding pass.

Miranti Hadisusilo

Don't forget to make reservation especially on weekends.. Ask for the outside table , the view is great at night..

Dmitry Efremov

I liked that place. There were almost no visitors at 10 pm and service was good. Tasty crab ! And everything else as well !

Margherita B.

Unbelievable black pepper and chili crab . Nice water view location too

Alexandra Ma

Amazing salted egg shrimp , razor clams , and butter jumbo crab - even better washed down with a pitcher of beer !

Jasmine wang

AMAZING!!! Wish you won't miss the chili crab . The black pepper crab is tasted too. FYI Tea and peanut aren't offered for free.

Cigdem Cumhur

Make a reservation at least 2 days in advance if you want to have dinner in decent hours.phone for riverside +6565323435.must try chilicrab

Elaine Said

Very good chilli crab . Busy restaurant so make a booking . Quite touristy .

Shantanu Bhadoria

Just because they leave peanuts on the table and a waitress comes to pour you tea without asking doesn't mean they are free. You will get surprise charges for the things that might seem complimentary .

Simon Gianoutsos

We had an excellent meal out tonight. The chilli crab was great. The venison was tasty and tender.

One of the top places to order chili crab , the island’s unofficial national dish, is Jumbo Seafood Restaurant. As the name suggests, the menu includes plenty of other seafood . Read more

Chilli crab and black pepper crab were both excellent. I always love the chilli one more though ;)

Scott Mears

Good experience, but a bit pricey . Also, incredibly messy, so don't dress too nicely!

Raul Valle

A classic! Singapore chili crab is a must. Buns are delicious !

Shane Gavin

Take a number and walk around Clarke quay for a while. They will call you when your table is ready.

Wut Hmone

I love all the seafood restaurant . But I only order Black Pepper Crab at Jumbo. The best strong taste.

Karolina ????

Service is simply awful, but the crab was worth it. If you're very hungry, get fried rice - you won't regret it!

Omar al-D ????????

Must get the king crab Half chili and Half black pepper - Best in Singapore!

Magda N

Food is great here, but service is a bit all over the place.

Aileen Tan

chili crab is good but it is very expensive . not worth the price. 88sgd for one big crab . the fish we ordered took almost 40mins so we had to cancel it. too expensive and overrated.not going back.

burcin s.a.

Reservation needed - don’t wait 1 hour

APRILIDER

Very good seafood with reasonable prices. I'm impressed 

Yiling Ding

Chilli crab , black pepper crab , cereal prawns , sugar cane prawns are fantastic.

James T

They should rename their chilli crab to 'Heinz Ketchup Crab '! sickly sweet! I'm sure people don't travel all the way to Singapore to eat sauce out of the bottle .
