About Grabs Restaurant

Mount Lawley’s hands-on seafood boil trades conventional cutlery for bibs, gloves, and platters heaped with mud crab, marron, and prawns. Rather than standard butcher-paper dumps, dishes arrive neatly plated, doused in tangy Singapore chili or rich XO sauce alongside classic Cajun seasoning. Regulars know to mop up the spicy juices with fried mantou or crusty garlic bread—though the kitchen also caters to non-seafood eaters with tender pork ribs and steaming bowls of pho.

  • Asian-Cajun Sauces: Boils are tossed in custom blends ranging from Louisiana Cajun to umami-rich XO and tangy Singapore chili crab sauce.
  • Platter Service: Feasts come presented on wide platters alongside bibs and gloves, keeping table mess manageable.
  • Beyond Shellfish: The kitchen rounds out crustacean boils with Vietnamese comfort fare like pork ribs and pho.

Why Dine at Grabs Restaurant

Feast on fresh shellfish boils tossed in bold Asian-Cajun sauces and built for shared celebrations.

  • Generous, Freshly Cooked Shellfish Boils

    Whole lobsters, mud crabs, and mixed shellfish are generously portioned, cooked to succulent tenderness, and served fresh.

    The seafood was super fresh, generous in portions, and everything came out beautifully prepared.

  • Mess-Free Platter Presentation

    Unlike venues that pour shellfish straight onto the table, boils are plated on clean dishware for an enjoyable, manageable dining experience.

    Food is served on a plate and not on the table so it’s not as messy.

  • Distinctive Asian-Cajun Sauces

    House specialties include Tangy Singapore chilli crab style sauce and savoury XO sauce alongside rich Cajun seasonings.

    The Tangy Singapore sauce was on point—bright, flavorful, and complemented the dishes perfectly.

  • Sauce Mopping with Mantou and Garlic Bread

    Fried mantou, warm garlic bread, and rice provide the perfect vessels to mop up every drop of spiced seafood juices.

    Make sure to order fried mantou to clean your plate off the sauce. Yes. Its that good.

  • Uninhibited Communal Group Celebrations

    With gloves, bibs, and hands-on platters to share, groups and birthday parties can dig in together without formalities.

    They also provided us with gloves and bibs, which we definitely needed as we got quite messy!! Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience indeed

    Platters come accompanied by toasted garlic bread and steamed rice intentionally served to soak up rich Asian-Cajun sauces.

Before you head over

Practical advice on ordering sauces, choosing sides, and parking for your seafood boil.

  • Scale Up Your Spice Level

    If you enjoy heat, opt for spicy over mild; diners note that the mild Cajun option lacks kick, while spicier choices deliver the expected punch.

  • Pair Carb Sides to Soak Sauces

    Order sides like fried mantou, garlic bread, or rice to mop up leftover Singapore tangy and XO boil sauces on your platter.

  • Park in the Adjacent Carpark

    The restaurant is located at the end of the arcade adjacent to a carpark, offering convenient and easy parking right near the entrance.
