I love going to crush 11!! Everything there is so delicious and all the cocktails are amazing!! I was surprised it was busy on a Tuesday night. Our server was Nicole and she was so sweet!! The only thing I took a star off for was it took a while to get our food and drinks. Granted it was busy, so I’m sure that’s why, but it did take longer than expected. Other than that, this place is spectacular! I do miss when they changed up their menu seasonally. They don’t do that anymore and it makes me sad. I do think this place needs to have seasonal cocktails or seasonal specials or something to spice it up a bit.

Unfortunately we picked a night to go when there appeared to be several office Christmas parties going on so it was very busy and boisterous. The service was good and the food tasty, but it was much too loud for our tastes. Maybe try again during a less-busy time of year.

The food and atmosphere were absolutely wonderful. The only negative thing was our waitress was not the greatest. It just seemed like we were a bother to her. Zero personality. All the other wait staff seemed very nice and personable to their customers. So hope it was just a bad night for her. Everything else was great!
