“It is a small, very friendly atmosphere, and very good for an intimate dining experience.”
“The tapioca was delicious and the chocolate cake was unique - the chili kick would follow the pleasant sweetness.”
“He offered us a glass of wine, we waited, and from then on the food and everything was great!”
“finally went last night, and the food was disappointing.”
“Our party of three consisted of huge foodies, both of the vegetarian and carnivorous variety.”
“This is a great restaurant if you feel like waiting one hour for your appetizer then an additional for forty-five minutes for the main course.”
“Again, I am still unable to understand why a restaurant owner (whose restaurant is rarely full) decided to be unrelenting with a potential return customer.”

pretty good. I like this place. Food is good.
Very Good Food..... The Crave is not cheap, but that's not why you came here with your date. You came here to get a little and sure enough... you will. The food is very good, but not spectacular, the wine prices are a little high, and the service is not up to the level of the menu or ambiance, but the setting is amazing. This may be one of the most romantic restaurants in all of NY so you will put up with the other failings because it sets the mood…
perfection for the palate. Just tried Crave for the first time since I moved to the neighborhood and regret not going sooner. Great atmosphere with good music that still allowed me to have a conversation with my friends, who were very impressed. We tried a little bit of everything, which was the way to go. The brie tart was fantastic, we also had the shumai with wasabi, and the croquettes which melted in my mouth. I had the salmon, which had to be the most creative plate I've eaten in a while! It had a purple sweet potato and small sausages on the side, and the fish was cooked to perfection. My friends had the chicken and Ribeye, both beatiful plates. For dessert we were recommended the chocolate chili cake, and it was to die for! The waitress also explained to us about their tasting menus, and that will be a must for next time. Overall was a great experience and I was very happy with everything. We were treated to a course of small soups before our main courses, a touch that made the night all the more special and the service attentive. Go Crave!…
NOT IMPRESSIVE. I was so excited for crave. Our party of three consisted of huge foodies, both of the vegetarian and carnivorous variety. We ordered a variety of things. The food was not as creative as it claimed. Sides and apps were under-seasoned. It was just kind of boring. The wine list was decent. Space is cute, but I wouldn't crave Crave again. Though the service was friendly, it was inattentive, which is hard to swallow considering that we were only 3 of 5 people in the restaurant.…
