One of my top favorite restaurants in the Boise area! Perfect for a dinner with friends or date night! Love their cocktails, appetizers and entrees! I have been sever times and will go back. Definitely book in advance if possible :)

Our favorite steady spot for date night. Great cocktails (Coco marg! Great bourbon list!), amazing chicken sandwich, great steak tips, and the park fries are a 10/10. We always sit at a high top on the bar side or at the bar. Can’t recommend it enough.

Food was delicious. Wontons were fantastic and my steak tips were cooked perfect. Server was amazing!

We called and made a reservation but they were able to seat us 1/2 hour early when we showed up to check in. The staff were very nice and welcoming. Our server knew the menu well and was great at giving us recommendations. I’ve had pork shank at fancy Boston restaurants that were dried out but this was cooked perfectly! The food was flavored well and definitely worth the price. The brussels sprout appetizer was also cooked with the perfect crunch. They also have a nice list of local beers and an amazing dessert menu.

If you’re looking for a nice place to have a meal on date night do not go here. I really don’t know how this place got good reviews. We wanted to try somewhere new and the good reviews were the selling point. Upon arriving it was clear that it is more of a bar. The place is dark, noisy and smells like stale beer and old deep fryer oil, which is off putting. The food we ordered was terribly greasy with oddly combined ingredients. Maybe that’s how they came up with the name Crave.As a side note our waiter was awesome. He should go work at sea level, he would do well.

Good food, plenty of parking. Not suitable for large parties as one meal was forgotten and came 20 minutes after everyone else's. And the wait for the checks was equally excruciating and when they did arrive were incorrect and needed corrections. Nice ambiance for a small dinner for 2 but again considering the aforementioned problems I won't go there again with a large party like we had of 12.

Sat at of bar! Drinks were great! Bartender did an Excellent job & Food was
The kitchen is a scratch kitchen and the quality of the food is excellent. The management and staff are caring, friendly and professional.

Normally on a Tuesday after work we reward ourselves with a trip to the Tuna striker for steamers and beers. Well they closed for the season. So we decided to give Crave a try. First off, the bar area is beautiful, The wait staff is prompt and the aroma of good food intoxicating. We decided to stick with apps for the evening as we weren't overwhelmingly hungry. It was a great choice because the drinks were delicious. We had the tuna, wings and crispy tomatoes with fresh mozzarella. All delicious. The icing on the cake for us though was just how warm and friendly the staff was. I know that's not everyone's cup of tea but we love when you find a staff who are so confident in the food their serving, the quality of their drinks and the leadership they work for that they engage with patrons like Sam Malone might with Norm. Special thanks to Joann for a great evening.

Super food, and very friendly people! What more could you ask for? We were in Amesbury for the first time. It is a sweet little town with its own special quaint vibe. So nice that Crave is part of that. I had fish tacos which were great. I had never had coleslaw on tacos, and I liked it. My AZ taste buds did crave more heat, but the server brought over some very good hot sauce that did the trick. Hubby enjoyed the steak tips. We opted for the parmesan fries, which were full of flavor. Portions were more than adequate. The bar area looked very interesting, but we were at the end of a very long trip and decided to pass on the beer and wine. Our server could not have been more friendly. We felt very welcome. All the patrons seemed to be having a very good time.

This was the worst service we ever had. Slow to get asked what we wanted to eat. My wife ordered a pasta dish and I ordered a burger. We waited and waited and waited. The waitress stopped by twice and told us it was almost ready. After an hour… yes an hour to cook pasta and a burger, we stopped the waitress as she was walking past our table and asked “where is our food?” She said the kitchen was backed up with orders. There was only 10 people in the restaurant and most already ate. We got up and said forget it we are leaving. The owner finally came out to apologize but I had no interest in hearing his BS and he tried to give my wife some meal card and she ignored him just like they did us. No clue how this place could have a high rating. We will never return and will steer others to a different place.
