Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Buttered seafood is a little bit overpriced. 595 php for a few slices of calamares, mussels, shrimps, potato and corn. But it tastes good specially for me who loves garlic. Pork sinigang and Oyster fried rice are also great."
"The Red Crab in Tomas Morato did not disappoint! The crab with Szechuan sauce was incredibly fresh and flavorful—definitely a must-try. Despite our late-night visit, the staff remained welcoming and attentive, which made the experience even better. Highly recommended, and we’ll definitely be back!"
"My FRIENDS loved it and my Partner as well. . They have a lot of varieties, even the resto name says Red Crab, the menu didnt just stop there. The variety is from seafood to meat and chicken which I approved as I'm very allergic to seafood. A little pricey buy 2-3 person can share in one so it's fine."
"The food was absolutely delicious - every dish was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented."
"So the oyster sisig was overly seasoned, the bangus, lechon and kangkong were nothing special, the mussels were overcooked and dry, but the clam soup was enjoyable and generous with the clams. But I came for the crab and for the nth time in my life, their crab marites Just. Does. Not. Disappoint."
"The food is extremely worth it, the vibes is giving classic vintage which is very comfy and warm. The crew is very kind and attentive, especially kuya Aron and kuya Rob which is an ojt student."
"Portions are fit for two people na. Great food and the servers are attentive. Definitely recommend this place, but it’s a bit small. Make sure to talk to the manager before planning on coming with a big group."
"the moment i walk in, they already assist me and my family to be seated and suggests the best selling food and it was delicious, especially the server Kuya Glyn and Kuya Aaron are very hospitable on how they serve us."
