Grabs - Mount Lawley

We were warned that the lava wings were hot.. I like hot spicy food but o my god. After only having 2 bites off the wing I instantly thought are these even legal!!! My whole mouth was on fire for about half an hour, I got the hiccups straight away and then had to fight the urge to vomit. Beware people... They are HOT!!

Very yummy food specially for the chili crab , and the ladies service is excellent , I will recommend this restaurant for friends,probably will be coming back again....

We had a great time at grab a yabby, love the food and service was excellent. Will definitely be coming back for some crunchy prawns.

Have been to Grab-a-Yabby three times now and each time has been excellent. The most recent time I visited it was when I took my whole family for my mum's birthday on a Friday night. We all ordered mud crabs and the food came out within a reasonable time and our waitress was really great, always making sure everything was ok and exceeding our expectations. The mud crabs were delicious, everyone was happy with the sauces they ordered - when you ask for hot, they give you hot! They also catered for my two year old nephew and made us feel very welcome to bring little kids. It is definitely a place for the whole family. My mum received wine on the house and my brother in law received a shot glass for finishing some extremely hot lava wings. The atmosphere is fun and friendly, the food is messy but it's supposed to be! And the service is excellent, with a friendly wave goodbye at the door. Can't wait to go back.

Always great food!! Consistent. Must try!! Kiat beef and pork ribs. Seafood recipes are unique and extremely tasty!! It will be very difficult to fault the quality of food.

There should be a "Grab a Yabby" signage fronting the parking area. It's not easy to find at first. There are people who doesn't like hot food. Your mild is too much for some people. Maybe make something that's milder than mild.

Overall Average. No flavour in yabbies and mud crab we ordered. Overrated! Definitely will not recommend to others. Service and cleanness are good enough to above average.

experience was ok. service was a bit slow as only 1 floor staff that night. food was ok but only tried the seafood mix or platter.

Food was alright, good service and atmosphere. Very good for a first time experience. It was quite fun and messy but it was worth the experience.

Food is over priced and you don't get much for what you paid. We had the crawfish combo and clams, there wasn't much in it. The pork rack was massive but the meat was a bit tough and same thing not much meat. But I have to say the service is attentive and friendly so thumbs up for it.

Loved it. Great atmosphere. Good food. The other seafood was probably better than ordering yabbies and the yabbi sause was average. The asian xo sause actually went the best with the seafood

Food is good but not cheap, service is good as well, worth to go. But dont order the Lava chicken wings! extremely HOT! No joking😂

Food was nice but very overpriced in my opinion. Staff were also nice but quite disorganised- ie more concerned about cleaning tables when no customers are waiting than taking an order initially or later delivering the first drink.

Casuan flavours were under seasoned. Service was great and food was tasty. The lava wings where hot as expected but the flavour of the hot sauce was overpowering in flavour not heat but fla

Wouldn't go there for a casual meal due to the price of dishes, but overall a very enjoyable experience. Will definitely return for that XO sauce.

Fun and unique eating experience and child friendly . Children allowed to make a mess and draw on paper table cloth. Ribs look good. Will try the next round .

Seafood was great, the inferno sauce is delicious, we got mild but it was still spicy enough for me (spice addict) to enjoy and mild enough for the spice hater. Service was fantastic, very attentive and explained everything very well. Only thing is that it is pricey for the 'setting'. Over $100 for a 'canteen' style meal, but I guess that's what you get with seafood!!

Great tasty food and excellent service. But a little bit pricey. Will visit again to try other seafood varieties with different flavours. Overall satisfied. 👍

Excellent customer service & food was tasty but would have given a higher rating if not running out of several item on the menu on weekday & reason given sold out! No Mud Crab, Lobster or Dino Ribs... restaurant was not even busy that night.

I came to know this place with my nieces on Mothers Day for lunch, best place I ever, the food was 👍👍the best. I yesterday I came back with my family. They loved it, very good service, I would come again and recommend to all my friend and everyone I know.

Friendly staff, good service and food. It's a use your hands (plastic gloves provided) and get into peeling yabbies kinda place. So if you're wanting something a bit different to the norm, you'll enjoy it.

On arrival at 2pm the place was completely empty so was a bit unnerving however your waitress was lovely! Unfortunately the food was just ok and very expensive for lunch cafe menu. We went for the mud crab only to discover it was $90 for a one and half pounder. We then wanted the beef and that was not available. I think that the prices might be 5* restaurant prices but the menu is not for sure and the food we received whilst was nice enough were again very small portion sizes for the prices 😕 Sad because we could see the great potential for it to be an awesome place....it just isn't presently sorry...

Our second time here and it was great. Staff were very friendly, seafood basket was better than expected. Lava wings were XXXtremely hot! We look forward to coming back soon.

Don't wear your best attire and be prepared to earn your yabby. Very messy but worth it for the experience and taste. Very yummy yabby. I had a Groupon voucher and i thought it was good value.

Service was appalling, didn't have 2 menu items we wanted and it was only 7pm on a Tuesday. Food was ok but not worth the price. Good for the gimick but wouldn't go again.

Staff need to be trained and managers need to manage. Service was pitiful, 20mins to get drinks , over an hour to get food. Staff had no idea how to serve customers. Didnt get any water till 15minutes into eating, even though requested when we sat down. Staff kept apologising but we dont want apologies just service. Its meant to be an experience not a cluster. Wont be back. Owners do yourelf a favour and train your staff , maybe google customer service.

a 6 for sure... the surf and turf I had was amazing!!!! steak cooked to perfection and the crayfish and morton bay bugs were to die for!!! staff were very friendly and helpful... I would deficiently recommend to anyone!!!

This place is way Overpriced for what it is and the food was nothing spectacular. 6 calamari rings for $16! It was just ok, but we won't be back.

Food tastes great though bit over priced, and serving staff need more training. Basic setting and atmosphere. They advertise the weights in pounds and not kg which is annoying. Be prepared to get get messy when eating.

Nice staff. The fisherman's basket and moreton bay bug were perfectly cooked. Very tasty meal. Will come back wnd try the ribs next time. Good find

Yabbies were very fresh and had a lovely natural sweetness to them. The mud crabs and freshwater crays were ok, not amazing but not too bad. Overall an enjoyable experience but a little on the pricey side.

Dined on a saturday for lunch. Meals came out at different times but other than that was great. Service was great and of course it was a great experience bashing the yabby claws on the table!

Love this restaurant! Food was tasty, and perfect for a fun date night. We made a reservation, was seated with no fuss and food delivered promptly.

Excellent foods & services. Love the chunky pork ribs dish, its fantastic! Price is bit above average, but we had enjoy the night very much.

Good fun for a diner with a group of friends! The crab claws and clams for me next time for sure! Thanks for a great way to celebrate my birthday!

The seafood (particularly the yabbies) were tasty and the overall experience was a good one! Definitely a messy (good) dining experience! Would be even better with a large group.

It was great. The customer service was perfect. The food was amazing, looked amazing (as advertised). We had a great time, and would definitely come back as well as recommend this restaurant to all my friends.

We had the mud crab in the xo sauce and that was delicious! Eating with gloves and bibs was an interesting experience. We also wanted to try the coconut jelly in coconut but they ran out so will have to go again to try it.

Few popular dishes not available on the day we went. Services very slow and lobster is overcooked. Wish we should have left just like our next table did. 2 casual wear person that we think are the bosses just sit there play with their phones instead of serving customers. Definitely not recommended

The seafood was great and the service was great too. Great place for gathering with family and friend. Won't mine visiting again in near future.

Food is good as was the service (but then again we were the only customers at 7pm on Thursday night. Seafood looks good and perfectly cooked - probably nicer without the sauce. Serving is quirky to the point of sillyness - Fishermans basket served in a plastic bag - you are given plastic gloves and a plastic bib and the plate is the paper table cloth (though they did give us a plate on request. So basically if served on a plate with a finger bowl to wash hands in this place would be great. Prices are also reasonable for what is served

First time here with my girlfriend. The staff were really helpful and descriptive when it came to explaining the menu to us. The food quality was outstanding, love how we could just eat messy. Thanks for delivering a food experience I've never had before I'll definitely be back for more :)

The food was delicious and the service was good. It was not busy when we went and it would have been better if the wait staff had seated the table a little away from our table instead of right next to us as they were a little loud and the tables were too close together.

Food was very nice, especially the appetizers; but a bit over-priced. Waitresses were nice , but no utensils came out w food. Steak meal no fork. Rice no spoons or forks either. We had to ask for them . They cleared out table of all gloves & utensils but we had more food to come & by the time they asked us if we needed gloves, we had already finished. Restaurant was quiet . 1 staff member. was cleaning & chatting to other 2 staff members. I wouldn't go back purely on pricing. Just wanted to see what it was all about . For the $310 we spent there ( 4 adults & 2 kids), we would have had a better seafood feast @ a Chinese Seafood restaurant.

We had pleasant experience, the waitress is very helpful and attentive to our needs. Food is great, will try the other varieties next time we visit

The food and service were excellent. It was such a fun and one of a kind dining experience. We will definitely be coming back here.

We had such a fun lunch! The food was absolutely delicious - loved the yabbies and the sweet potato chips! Coconut jelly was also wonderful. The service was fantastic and the restaurant is super clean. We will definitely be back!

Great service and food as always. Will be returning in the future for the fresh seafood.

Great food, great people! Highly recommended! If you are bringing children, please make sure to bring something that will keep them entertained, so you'll have enough time to enjoy your yabbies.
