* Extensive cocktail list

The team behind the original Fatty Crab in the West Village brings the same mix of authentic Malaysian cuisine, fun atmosphere and inventive cocktails to the Upper West Side. Chef Corwin Kave serves up many of the signature dishes that made the downtown outpost a...
This Malaysian restaurant's street food offerings created by Chef / Owner Zak Pelaccio, and deceptively knowledgeable crew makes for a truly inventive dining experience. In typical small-plate fashion, diners are encouraged to share, and plates emerge from the open kitchen as they're ready. You'll get all five tastes from the food here which is highly seasoned and spiced to the highest degree....
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Fatty Crab Restaurant Review: Fatty Crab’s uptown space builds on the hipster equity of its slightly cramped downtown location’s digs with a larger main dining room and a side room that actually allows for meaningful conversation. This is not cuisine for the timid. Zak Pelaccio’s Malaysian street food is strident, creative and sometimes over-the-top hot, but always in...
The uptown branch of Zac Pelaccio's downtown Malaysian street-food joint has two major advantages over its downtown sibling: more seats and a reservations line. Other than that, the menu mimics the Hudson Street locale's laundry list of crowd-pleasing favorites, like coconut-rich short rib Rendang and soft buns filled with Berkshire pork, cilantro, and savory sauce. Perhaps in deference to the...
The loud, busy, somewhat rushed ambience complements the chef’s pull-no-punches spicy Malaysian cuisine. If you don’t want to venture to Chinatown or Queens for family-run, inexpensive, and authentic Malaysian, Fatty Crab is a pricier but worthy alternative, with a few innovations like the funky Fatty Dog, a pork sausage seasoned with chilies and shrimp paste and served in a potato hot-dog bun....
Hipster-foodie favorite Zak Pelaccio's Fatty Crab has been running a full house since opening shop in MePa a few years back. Now that the UWS is finally developing a culinary rep, they're at last getting the 'Crab, too. Definitely has more than minuscule original incarnation on the inside. Menu—Southeast Asian gone Manhattanite (namesake chili crab, sliders, pork buns, etc.)—stays intact, gains...
Just live this place! Had the Fried pork and Watermelon and watermelon martini. What a Awesome place! Went to the the one downtown on Hudson st. Will definitely be going back on my next journey to NYC.
Dog food.
A total and complete joke.
Dirty, old, tired, uncared for, and . . . expensive.
A B from the NYC Board of Health. Lovely.
Food was bad. Uninteresting, poor quality. The pork buns were awful. The Chinese broccoli looked like the remnants in the bottom of the box it came in. The duck was overdone and dry and...
We tried to go there, since it was right in the same building as our hotel.
Restaurant door was open, but it looked like they weren't open for business. Ok, this was two days after Hurricane Sandy hit, but no real damage to speak of on Upper West Side...did look like the hurricane had hit them however.
Disappointed, as I...
Excellent. Go there often
Everything is great, with good kid friendly options too
Zak Pelaccio on the Upper West Side? Fat(ty) chance! The heart-clogging, Asian-leaning chef finally unveils the highly anticipated uptown outpost of his popular Malaysian street-food mecca in the West Village, making him the latest in a growing line of A-list toques who've trekked to the nabe (see: Daniel Boulud, Danny Meyer, Danny Abrams). "I don't speak Upper Westside-ian—I've still got my...
