Seafood. One of life's most important pleasures #shella-brate the little things with Mellben Signature.

In 2019, Mellben Seafood of Ang Mo Kio outlet was listed in the Singapore Michelin Guide with a “Michelin Plate”.

One of the first dedicated crab restaurants in Singapore, Mellben Seafood is known for its Claypot Crab Bee Hoon Soup, Butter Crabs and Chilli Crabs.

Most Singaporeans growing up in the North-eastern part of Singapore would have heard of Mellben Seafood in Ang Mo Kio, and its famously long queue. In the early 2000s, this queue extended across the coffee shop and wound around so as not to spill into the neighbouring shop. Waiting time stretched for as long as three hours on special occasions.

“Our Claypot Crab Bee Hoon soup is so tasty because we don’t cook our crabs one at a time. We can cook as many as 20 crabs in a single pot to get the taste and aroma right. There is no short cut. It is not something you can easily recreate at home even if you had our recipe.”

Interestingly, while the chilli crab is unofficially recognised as Singapore’s national dish, foodies in-the-know veer towards a different rendition of the dish at Mellben Seafood: the Claypot Crab Bee Hoon Soup. We’re among the first in Singapore to offer this creamy crab broth with thick vermicelli.

Where would we be without you?

Ordered the Claypot Crab Vermicelli Soup, Crispy Cereal Prawn and Stir Fried Shimeji Mushroom w Shanghai Cabbage and I loved everything! The soup was very comforting, especially on a rainy evening. Prawns were very fresh and cereal was tasty/yummy. Veg and mushroom were very tasty!

Recommended to reserve a table in advance, but walk in before 6pm should be fine for weekdays. We (2 adults and 3 kids) ordered only a Claypot Crab with vermicelli (which not much shop does) and a veggie dish, which is more than full for us. The crab soup is mild but flavoury with crab just like my childhood flavour, but personally I prefer loofah over pok choi to be in the soup. Our crab is about a kilo which cost SGD95 for this dish, but portion is huge for 5 of us. This shop offers several other flavours/cooking options of crab as well that you can pick one for ur own taste.

We came to this restaurant to try out their Chili Crab and we were not disappointed. We order a mid-sized Sri Lankan crab to share. It was so good we ordered another! The spicy level is just nice. And the gravy is really delicious and goes well with the man-tou (buns). The crabs were well prepared and of high quality. Besides ordering crab we also ordered bamboo clams. All in, we enjoyed the food and the service here was acceptable.

Super delicious seafood restaurant! They have delicious crabs and lots of seafood, And this one is recommended by the locals! Need to reserve or just go to the restaurant before 6 o’clock ~ The crabs are so amazing and the fried breads are the best company with the crab’s souses. The only restaurant you cannot miss when visiting Singapore

The signature salted egg pork ribs was mind blowingly delicious, with the perfectly salty-crisp exterior and succulent meat. The claypot crab bee hoon soup was a joy - perfectly cooked noodles, creamy broth and delicious crab. These two dishes are a must.

Overall good experience for travelers wanting to try chili crab. Came at the recommendation of a local vendor at Maxwell. For two of us we had chili crab, smallest portion was 800g ($75) which was standard price, mantous and fried veggies. Overall good quality and not overpaying - would recommend
