Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take on Yi Jia Village Seafood Restaurant is that it’s a reliable spot for zi char, especially for groups.

Reviewers consistently praise the freshness and quality of their crabs, with the salted egg butter crab being a standout.

For instance, the $88 crab set, which includes two crabs, nine mantou, and two desserts, is highlighted as good value.

While dine-in experiences are generally positive, with dishes like sweet and sour pork and sambal tapioca leaves receiving commendation, there are some operational concerns.

One reviewer noted issues with hygiene, specifically flies, which might make takeaway a more appealing option for some.

We also noted a significant complaint regarding a takeaway order of ginger fish rice, where the portion of fish was deemed inadequate for its $6.50 price.

We think Yi Jia is best for a casual group dinner, focusing on their crab dishes, but we'd advise caution with takeaway orders of individual rice dishes.
