Ministry of Crab was created as a culinary homecoming for the Sri Lankan Mud Crab and has now made its way to Kuala Lumpur. Opened at TUAH 1895, Bukit Bintang City Centre, Ministry of Crab Kuala Lumpur is housed in a historic and elegant venue around the main gate of the historic Pudu Jail. This iconic location symbolizes a blend of heritage and transformation, making it the perfect setting to celebrate our culinary journey. Just as this site has evolved into a vibrant hub, we strive to honour its history while bringing a contemporary dining experience that showcases the finest crabs in the world. This iconic location provides a sophisticated ambiance, offering guests an unforgettable dining experience with the vibrancy of Kuala Lumpur’s bustling atmosphere.

Our flagship restaurant in Colombo, listed among 'Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list from 2015 to 2022, built on a foundation that prioritises the freshness and quality of our ingredients. To uphold this standard, we air-freight the finest Sri Lankan Mud Crab twice a week, to Kuala Lumpur. We also adhere to the same strict no-freezer policy as the one in Colombo, which is a testament to our commitment to freshness.

Ministry of Crab, Kuala Lumpur, is dedicated to bringing the award-winning flavours to your table. Indulge in the freshest seafood, including our renowned Sri Lankan mud crabs and juicy freshwater prawns, prepared with a blend of Japanese, Sri Lankan, and Mediterranean influences.

Our legendary Crabzilla (a 2kg Sri Lankan crab) and Prawnzilla (weighing over 500g each) are also available, offering a true seafood feast. Each dish is crafted with the highest quality ingredients, ensuring an unforgettable dining experience.
