This restaurant was disappointing. The Holiday menu was extremely expensive. I expected the prices to be high just because they were open on Christmas Day, but not that high. The portions we tiny. The chicken fried rice was the only thing that was a good portion. We ordered wonton soup for $12. It wasn't even a full cup. If you are going here and willing to spend $300 you could definitely get a good meal. We were not expecting to spend that. They didn't have any of the traditional dishes that my daughters would have eaten. The parking was great. There were plenty of employees to accommodate the restaurant. It just wasn't what my family was expecting. We won't be going back.

We waited over an hour to be served. The table next to us came in 35 minutes after us and received all of their dishes. So we never got to eat anything and we left. Terrible service. I have no idea about the quality of the food.

Celebrated with half a Peking duck. It seemed deep fried. Tasted okay, but definitely not worth $60plus after tax and tip. Server was nice. Just don't eat Chinese food in palm beach county... Just no.

We were out celebrating a special occasion tonight and everyone in the restaurant staff went above and beyond to make it an excellent experience for me. I have a few diet restrictions and they bent over backwards to accommodate me as well and I so appreciated it. This is the best Chinese food I have ever had anywhere and everything is fresh homemade and you can't get better than that. I highly recommend Chilli Crab to everyone.

This was amazing! Thank you so much! We sampled pretty much everything - the duck was the best I ever had. The dumplings were phenomenal & the staff was exemplary.

I would eat here every week if I could. This place is legitimate Cantonese style food and the Dungeness crab in ginger garlic sauce is divine. Dumplings are also good. Peking duck, fantastic!
The waitstaff is attentive and professional, and the atmosphere is not too loud or funereal. Great place to enjoy a meal with family or friends. I will be back!

I'm not wild about everything I had here, but there are some very good items. The Peking Duck is very good, not on par with the great ducks I've had though.... good to have locally though. The Soup Dumplings are a must. Other dumplings are good too. Enjoyed the spring rolls.

The food is very good.  some unique dishes and preparations and a welcome addition to the Boca Raton dining establishment. I did enjoy their Peking duck and some of their other dishes as well.

The best dim sum I’ve had in all of south Florida!!!! And the best service. I spent a few weeks in Hong Kong and this is the best place I’ve found that comes close to what I experienced there ?

We came here for two reasons. We had a previous good meal here and we wanted an authentic Chinese meal. What we got was a chaotic mediocre meal that was VERY expensive for what it was. We ordered soup dumplings as an appetizer, followed by Peking Duck and we asked for a centerpiece dish the Black Pepper Crab and an off menu dish Ma Po Tofu. The crab was served with pork sauce that belonged in the Ma Po Tofu. No apology and we were too surprised to reject the crab. There was no sign of black pepper at all. All the courses were served at the same time, despite the soup dumplings being described as an appetizer. One would normally expect the Peking Duck to be served as an intermediary course but the Mapo tofu appeared before the Peking Duck. Plates were not provided for the duck pancakes, causing us to make the pancakes in our hands. This was not a terrible meal, but very chaotic and as a result of that chaos and the mistakes that were made, it was not a pleasurable experience. Partly, I take the blame for not complaining at the time.

My first visit here. This is a fabulous place! Nice atmosphere and attentive, friendly service. The chow is excellent. Enjoyed the Half Peking Duck, Pork Goyza, Shrimp Dumblings and Thai Chicken Fried Rice. Mary (aka Hua) and Diego were fantastic servers! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Alan the Chef/Owner is a very sweet, kind and talented Chef! I have a soy allergy and he worked with my order and cooked it soy free! It was delicious! He came by several times to make sure everyone at our table was enjoying their food. All the staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Our waitress gave us excellent service. The food here is fresh, high quality, savory, and incredibly tasty. We will be returning more often as it was that good! We invited another couple that night to join us for this dinner and they too said it was incredible! Thank you to Alan and his incredible staff! See you soon!
