Went there on a Sat afternoon and selected the brunch with bottomless seafood ($418 + 10%). The seafood selection included tiger prawns, lobster and spider crab legs all cooked in their homemade broth, the holy trinity. First off, the broth was heavily seasoned with black pepper (it was actually way over seasoned) which indicated that the seafood was probably not overly fresh. The amount of pepper would mask the unfreshness of the seafood. Tried the tiger prawn first and the meat was mushy, another indication of unfreshness. The lobster and crab legs were acceptable but lacked flavour on its own. You needed to dip it in the various sauces that the restaurants provides in order for any flavour. To be fair, for the price you pay and bottomless seafood offer I would not expect fresh seafood but I do expect seafood with good flavour. Holy Crab did not provide this, which was disappointing for a restaurant selling itself on the seafood it provides. Final conclusion, if you want to go for good tasting seafood then give it a miss but if you want quantity over quality then go for it.
