Dancing Crab at VivoCity is a seafood restaurant in Bukit Merah, Singapore. It holds a Google rating of 4.5 from 1,984 reviews.
A good seafood restaurant is judged on the freshness of its crab and shellfish, which should smell of the sea rather than fishy, and on the sauce, which should be rich without hiding the flavour of the shellfish. Crab is often sold by weight, so it helps to ask the price per kilogram before ordering. Messy dishes are best shared, and a bib and a bowl of water are a practical part of the meal. Regulars tend to visit at weekday lunchtimes, when the kitchen has more time for a whole crab and the wait is shorter.
VivoCity is a large harbourfront mall, which makes this restaurant an easy stop for a seafood dinner before or after a walk by the water.
