First time diner. I invited my customers to lunch and was very satisfied with the lunch menu, service and the food. Well done! I would not hesitate to return for lunch or dinner in the future.

Good selection of beers and drinks. Varied menu options. I had scallops that had almost no flavor. Service was attentive and helpful.

Had a wonderful dinner on Saturday, 10/16, and although it was Sweetest Day, the restaurant did not miss a beat. Food was terrific, cocktails outstanding, and I cannot give our server, Grace, enough compliments. She was the best.

This was my second time at Crave. My first time was a good experience, but this time it was terrible. Ordered a bottle of wine and a cheese board, wine comes out then a half hour later the cheese board come to the table. We have the cheese board at the table for 5 minutes before our entrees were delivered. So I had the waitress box up the cheese board and asked her to bring us another bottle of wine. I cut into my steak which I ordered medium, it was as well as well could be. I looked around and couldn't find the waitress so I sucked it up and ate the steak. We finished our meals and had been out of wine for awhile at this point, and the waitress comes back to tell us that the wine we ordered was out of stock but they had another if we would like. So I told her there would be no point and to just bring the check. Mind you, this was on a Tuesday evening, not even a busy night and the service/food was terrible.

Crave is one of my favorite Akron restaurant. The atmosphere is inviting and the decor is modern, but reserved. The food is definitely worth eating, and I am never disappointed.

Popular local establishment with local foods and creative menu. Congested dining area. Food was excellent but not if you are tired or looking for a dinner with conversation.

Hubby chose Crave for his birthday dinner. We had a nice booth in the bar, it was very cozy and not so loud that we couldn't have private conversation but also not quiet enough to be overheard. Alex was very friendly, knowledgeable, and pronpt. Great menu options and delicious. Interesting and fun drink menu. Overall very good experience. We will definitely be visiting Crave again soon.
