Really unique spot! I love the indoor decor. Service was wonderful. The chilequiles were delicious and the burger as well. The fries were crispy with great flavor. The drink menu looked yummy. Someone ordered a Bloody Mary and it looked really good. Outdoor seating as well.

The place was very trendy for a date night. I was there filming a proposal, the staff was extremely helpful and the food was mouth watering. I had the red wine pot roast… lets just say OMG!!! Would love to film here again and take my wife here for a date night. Staff 5/5 Decor 5/5 Food 5/5.

So much was interesting about this restaurant, from the eclectic atmosphere, to the equally eclectic delectable food. From start to finish, the restaurant drips character and style, and is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. Service was friendly and attentive, and last but not least, the food was excellent. My steak especially was amazing, and I couldn’t stop eating it, much to the chagrin of my full stomach. All in all, I’ll be back to dine at this hidden gem that makes its unique mark on the already vibrant dining scene in Downtown Geneva.

Food and cocktails were excellent!!! I had the sirloin with grilled zucchini on a bed of ricotta with olive oil which was delicious! Sirloin was amazing! It was made with a red wine reduction and it was light but not overpowering, not masking the taste of the beef. We had the risotto for appetizer and it was the best risotto I’ve had!! The drink pictures it’s the blue lightning, it was so good!! If you like cocktails that aren’t too sweet, you’ll love this. Our waiter, a middle ages man with a beard, was excellent! He was attentive and wanted to get to know his customers. The hostesses were sweet and helpful and Rachel the bartender was as sweet as pie! Will definitely come here again!!!

Very fun restaurant with excellent menu. Lots of gluten free items. My favorite is the GF! fried cheese curds that have fried pickles, peppers, cauliflower and onions in there too!! It’s a real treat. Our server was fantastic too! He even made a delicious and pretty mocktail upon request!

I visited Craft Urban with a friend for “Drag Brunch.” Making a reservation over the phone was easy, and service was fast while we dined. Drinks were good! The potatoes and jam that came with the classic breakfast were amazing! The bathrooms were also very clean and cute! Most importantly, the Queens slayed and the restaurant maintained an “urban”, lgbtq+ friendly environment.

This is the most “urban” you are going to get out here in the suburbs, and for that – I adore it. The staff are brilliantly talented, hard working and friendly. I go for the happy hour_ $5.draft beers and $7 cocktails cannot be beat. The food is pricey, but worth it. The bathrooms are clean, the chairs are comfy, the art work is IG worthy, and the ingredients are always fresh.

Top notch dinning experience. Very hip place with vibrant and classy decor. I had the lobster Sammy which was very good and highly recommended. I then had the cheese cake for desert, which was rich and sweet. I will definitely be returning soon.
