Local tip
Checking the crab selection and sauce choice before ordering helps shape a shared seafood meal.

Cut The Crab Cikajang is a seafood restaurant focused on Louisiana-style preparations, with live crab as its central speciality. Located on Jl. Cikajang in Petogogan, Jakarta, the venue combines premium crab selection with tableside preparation, giving the meal an interactive element from the start. Crab can be matched with a choice of signature sauces, allowing the main ingredient to take on different levels of spice, sweetness, richness or savoury depth.

The seafood menu extends beyond crab. Lobster, oysters, salmon, prawns, crawfish, calamari and green mussels are represented, with mixed seafood combinations bringing several ingredients together with corn, mushrooms and vegetables. Fish dishes cover grilled, fried, steamed and sweet-and-sour styles, while grilled seafood preparations provide a more straightforward alternative to sauced dishes.

Non-seafood choices include beef skewers, lamb shank and several chicken dishes, alongside rice-based meals, noodles and fried chicken. This broader selection makes the restaurant suitable for groups with different preferences, while the seafood mixes and whole crab preparations are naturally suited to shared dining. Vegetarian diners may find vegetables as part of selected combinations, although the menu is primarily built around seafood and meat.

The dining style centres on a hands-on seafood experience rather than a formal tasting format. Tableside preparation places attention on the crab and sauce, while the range of regional crab varieties gives seafood-focused diners room to compare different flavours and textures. Smaller dishes and rice meals provide simpler options for diners seeking a complete individual meal.

Cut The Crab Cikajang suits casual group meals, family dining and occasions built around sharing seafood. It also works for diners who prefer familiar chicken, fish or beef dishes alongside a crab order. The Cikajang address places the restaurant in Petogogan, within the Kebayoran Baru area of South Jakarta.
