I was really disappointed here. I went last a few years ago and it was great- this time was gross. There was a hair in my margarita, (I didn’t even take 1 sip the hair came out of the drink when I took the mixing straw out) and when I asked the waitress for a new one she said “oh… okay”, took it to the bartender who looked very confused. No one ever apologized.Both of our water glasses were cracked at the bottom, and leaking. The chefs in the kitchen weren’t wearing any hair nets. One was wearing a beanie but he had a long beard with no cover. The other male had no net, and rubber gloves on which I saw him run his nose with the back of his hand many times.The food was way expensive for small portions.

Eclipse Day and Crave has one bartender, while a bunch of other staff just stood around. The bartender said she was the manager and did her best. This was an opportunity for Crave to pull in a ton of new customers, but poor planning did the opposite. The manager seemed apathetic. They lost a lot of business.

First time checking out this establishment and I would recommend it. The food was very good and the service good. They have a full bar and they have table seating. The food and drink menu has many options to choose from. There is also plenty of parking options with the downtown parking decks. The food pictured is the chicken tacos.

This place has my favorite taco ever. I really appreciate that they offer vegetarian meat substitutes like the veggie chorizo and the impossible meat...thank you! This is why I keep coming back! Also love the fried plantains and yucca fries. Great place to stop for a snack and a drink or a full meal. Good atmosphere and love the open garage door in the bar area in nice weather so you get that indoor/outdoor feel.

Service was okay, just slow. Our waitress was very kind though.Food was terribly bland. Chimichuri steak skewers tasted bland and did not have chimichuri and piri piri sauce. Came with 3 small slices of potato and unseasoned skewered peppers/onions. Eating the steak was just eating a lot of chili crisp.Chilequiles tasted okay. Just soaked with an undercooked egg on top.Burrito was lackluster. All you could really taste was cheese sauce because it was smothered.It’s kind of a dark restaurant. And loud. Hard to even have a conversation with the person at your table.Bathrooms are sticky and dark.Can’t say we’d recommend going to Crave Cantina to anyone. It’s gone down since they opened.

Friendly service, seated on a Friday night with no reservation. Traditional guacamole was bland. Fountain Coke tasted off. Chorizo taco and Bahn Mi taco were great!

I’m wowed.. we came here for an “adventure date”. So we only did apps and a drink. But I’m so ready to come back!! The server was amazing:: she made fabulous drinks andWas Carismatic and helpful and made our time so fun!! She recommended that we try the macaroni and cheese with some grilled chicken on it and this was by far the most amazing macaroni and cheese I’ve ever had. We also had these plantains that were served with a sweet syrup that was spicy cloves and cinnamon. It was so satisfying and interesting.. This is a total masterpiece and big win. I can’t wait to come back and have a full meal and enjoy their entire menu.Vegetarian options: So many and vegan options too!!
Are you kidding!?!?!? For a couple years I’ve been meaning to stop here. Tonight my wife and I stopped in for date night and all we both can say is WOW!!! The drinks…excellent. The service…best in class. The food…well let’s just say we WE WILL BE BACK!Vegetarian options: Vegan selections but I’m a Midwest meat and potato guy. If you are vegan, you’ll find options for your pallet and the best part, tequila is vegan!

This is a group review as none of us had ever been here. There are only 3 slight knocks on this place. The guacamole didn't have any salt in it, which it needs a little to boost the flavor. Also, the water inside the tequila bottles tastes like water straight from a plastic water hose. Some like it, and some dont. The wings, while very good, seemed heavily sauced, and we wished the sauce had been baked on a little bit. The Cubano was fantastic. The chips were good. We all really loved the salsas, especially the Verde. The chicken, shrimp, steak, and vegan chorizo street tacos were all very good. The service was great, considering they were pretty busy.

Went out for a birthday Thursday November 30th, I ordered a strong island and got a glass of juice, was going to complain but my son ask me not to because of the birthday girl. And it was $14 which is ridiculous
