History
Crave was established in 2007 with the aim of creating a diverse menu to offer a unique dining experience for its customers.
With more than a decade under its belt, this restaurant has opened in 10 locations in America. Aside from the mixed menu, they also offer an award-winning selection of wine.
Review
Inside, it looks like an upscale fine dining restaurant. One might even think of it as an eat-all-you-can joint because of its massive sushi bar.
The food is top notch. They have a wide selection of wine to go with their delicious meals. The sushi there also tastes very fresh and looks very inviting.
If you drop by there, try out the escolar sashimi and other sushi on the bar. Aside from that, the chicken avocado egg roll is another must eat.
The staff is super friendly and entertaining. Waiting time is a bit touch-and-go, if it’s packed you might have to wait around 10 to 15 minutes to be seated.
