The mussels and salmon were really good. The she crab soup needs improvement because it had absolutely no meat in it. I expected more from the Mac and cheese especially since they said it is award winning. Overall the ambiance is nice and the drinks are superb.

Dined for the first time with some friends for New Years Eve and was not disappointed. Started off with two orders of Mac and cheese for a table of 5, one with a crab cake and one with bacon, both very good. Drinks were very well made and refreshing with our meals. For the main course I had the cedar plank salmon with Boursin risotto. The salmon was cooked just below medium and lightly seasoned, I wish it had come with some sort of glaze or finishing butter or even lemon wedges. Which I eventually got but that’s neither here nor there. The risotto was a bit thick like a rice casserole as opposed to a creamy, lava like consistency a risotto should have, in my opinion. Flavor was still good on the risotto and I ate every bit. Another dish I tried that a friend ordered was the short rib gnocchi. And let me tell you they did it right. Short rib was tender as could be and still a nice warm red center. Gnocchi was well cooked and complimented the short rib perfectly. The star dish of the night hands down. Service from Jacob was well orchestrated and the meal flowed as it should. All around a fantastic evening and we will definitely be back.

Seasonal appetizer was the best part of the meal! Cajun shrimp dip! Meats in the dishes were SOOO tender and the flavors were amazing! Definitely worth trying!!! A few critics are the atmosphere could use a tad more flair, the service was a tad slow on this particular night, and the dairy/egg/allergy items could be made more clear on menu. Overall a great experience though and we will definitely be back!

Well, from outside this place looked fancy with a lot of people inside. We didn’t want to have dinner but just a couple of drinks and some appetizers. We ordered Brie Bites and Shrimp Cocktail. Both of them didn’t look nice, shrmps were dry with a sauce on the side. And bites didn’t have brie inside! It was just empty bread crumble cover for 17$! I cannot say anything bad about service here. Waitress and manager were very kind, apologized for this mistake and took out these bites from our check.

Hands down the best biscuits and gravy I’ve EVER had in my life! And the chicken breast was to die for as well. Hubby ordered avocado toast and loved it. We ate here on Saturday which is when they offer brunch. The food, service, atmosphere and experience was spectacular! We will be back for brunch again. I get the name of the business because I’m “craving” the food.

Mac and cheese was outstanding. Parents got burgers and were very specific about being WELL done. Burgers came out almost rare. Sent them back and the manager was kind enough to stop by and say that they would get fresh burgers. All they did was put the old ones back on the grill and they came back medium. Manager nor waiter followed up with “chef” to make sure food was prepared correctly second time around. Waiter was trying make up for it but it’s his responsibility as well and I was embarrassed for my family not receiving a meal and leaving hungry. Beers were lukewarm at best. I know they won’t be going back and when I visit I will insist we don’t go there. Blamed it on new staff in the kitchen. They totally missed they mark.

Crave Kitchen is a nice restaurant. We made a reservation and was showed to our seats right away. The food was tasty and the award winning mac & cheese speaks for itself!

I am genuinely confused how this place has such high ratings. The food is really disappointing especially for the price. The mussels were super fishy, the she crab soup tasted like flour and had no crab chunks, the Caesar salad was drenched in dressing, and the calamari was lacking on flavor (but was the only decent thing we ordered). The staff is so lovely so I give them all the stars, but this place is not it for food.
