Live Crab, Vietnamese Table
Tràm Chim Live King Crab sits between a seafood restaurant, a crab house, and a Vietnamese restaurant. The name sets the tone at once: live king crab is part of the house identity, not a side note. That matters for the meal itself. Guests come in expecting seafood built around crab, then find a room that also carries Vietnamese cooking through the rest of the menu.
The restaurant’s categories point to a kitchen that handles both shellfish and Vietnamese dishes. In practice, that means a visit can start with crab and move into other seafood plates without changing the pace of the meal. The table stays centered on hands-on eating. Shells, sauces, and shared plates suit a dinner that takes time. A crab house works best when the food arrives ready for cracking, dipping, and passing around. This one carries that idea into a Westminster setting.
See the menu page for the kitchen’s wider seafood range gives a clearer picture of how those dishes are built, while this page stays on the visit itself. A meal built around live crab often asks for a little room on the table, a few napkins, and a slower pace. The food comes out in a form that rewards picking, breaking, and eating as it goes, so the experience feels direct from the first shell to the last bite.

When The Door Opens
The schedule gives the week a clear rhythm. Monday and Tuesday run from 3–10 PM. Wednesday and Thursday open at 10 AM and stay open until 10 PM. Friday through Sunday extend to 11 PM, with the same 10 AM opening on the weekend.
That spread supports several kinds of visits. Lunch fits the midweek and weekend daytime hours. Dinner fits every day. Late-night food fits the longer Friday, Saturday, and Sunday service. Reservations are accepted, so a table can be set in advance instead of left to chance. Dine-in, delivery, and takeaway all sit under the same roof, which lets a guest choose between a full meal at the table and food carried home after work.
A lunch visit can be quick and simple. A dinner visit can stretch longer, with drinks or another round of seafood. Delivery and takeaway change the order of the meal without changing the kitchen’s focus, since the food still comes from the same place and leaves in a form ready to eat. For a planned evening, reservations help keep the timing steady. For a weekday stop, the later opening on Monday and Tuesday shapes the whole plan.
