Customers come for the seafood—especially the garlic butter prawns, the signature whole crab, and the seafood pastas. Diners enjoy the quick service and generous portions; plates often hit the table within minutes, and staff will even help crack the crab so you can dig right in. The vibe is casual and memorable, with walls lined by crab shells carrying handwritten notes from guests and celebs, which many folks find charming after a day at the beach.

Although many call the prices reasonable overall, some mention that the whole crab and certain seafood dishes feel on the higher side. People praise the sinigang broth, pancit with plenty of toppings, and the sizzling seafood platter, although opinions split on the gambas—some like the spicy kick, while others wish there were more shrimp and fewer veggies. A few diners also flag inconsistency on non-seafood picks like crispy pata, honey butter chicken, and stuffed squid, noting toughness or dryness at times.

Diners appreciate the friendly, approachable staff and the accessible D’Mall location, but several mention the heat inside due to the lack of air-conditioning, which can make meals less relaxed. A couple of visits point to quality-control issues—one citing a stray hair in pork and another noticing noisy staff behavior—while others note a review-for-free-mango-shake promo that pops up occasionally. Overall, folks flock here for the fresh seafood, fast plates, and warm service, even if a few items and the indoor temperature don’t always hit everyone’s sweet spot.
