    Horrible experience, too long of a wait to be seated. You do not make a reservation 2 weeks ahead of time to be seated in a horrible outdoor area. Good completely disappointing. We would not come back. Host also very unfriendly. Overall a completely overrated spot.

    Carson, who was our main server was awesome. He really took care of us and made our first time in Craig’s memorable with his attention, fantastic humour and relaxed style. We were on holiday from Scotland. Jim

    Valet service was much appreciated. Service was great, food was delicious and portion sizes were better than anticipated. Have some Vegan Ice Cream (even though I'm not Vegan) to see what it was about and if it didn't say vegan on the menu I would have not known.

    Craigs needs some help. Same food menu, quality is going downhill and restaurant needs a renovation. Beat up and dirty feel. It is reflecting on the customer base. Been in the industry and all the big spenders abandoned Craig's for these reasons.

    The food was probably the worst we've ever had!! Our server as terrific, she was attentive and not at all pushy and an absolutely lovely person. However....both the appetizers and main course were beyond sub-par with the mains worse than highway restaurant food. Two main dishes done so badly is beyond comprehension. We were there early so "being busy" can not be used as an excuse. Definitely not value for the money.

    This was my first experience at Craig’s and well worth the wait! Friends visiting from the East Coast who are vegetarian offered to take me to dinner for my birthday so after searching for a fun spot with veggie options, I was thrilled to find Craig’s with an accommodating menu! My friends loved it and so did I! I love dark noisy spots and my burger was divine! Grateful and surprised I was able to get a great table on such short notice! Can’t wait to go back for more!

    Our waiter was great! He was knowledgeable of the menu and made great recommendations. He also was pleasant and funny, kept us entertained. However, we noticed that multiple tables next to us that arrived later got their food before us, and it took forever to get our check or to even get checked on. One member of our party ended up cancelling her entree because it was very rude. When we asked the waiter, we were told that the food was ready and they were waiting for us to finish our appetizers first....this wasn't communicated to us and I've never had a restaurant do that before. We would have communicated that we were finished if that was the case. I brought some out of town friends here because of the good reviews and they wanted to go to a "celebrity restaurant" but I can only assume that because we weren't "important" we weren't treated as nicely. Unfortunate, the food and drinks were good though! We enjoyed the bread, calamari, tuna tartare, kale salad, and iceberg lettuce wedge. Never got to our entrees 😒

    Craig's is a fun and a little quirky vibe. The service is great, they go out of their way to make you feel valued and comfortable. Our server was really friendly and helpful - I wish I got his name! He gave good food recs and was playful and engaging with me and my friend. The brussel sprouts were crispy and perfect, and I got pasta with shrimp that was delicious. My one complaint is that the room is really dark, which made me feel sleepy and a little uncomfortable.

    Mediocre food.. yardhouse has better food. Their IG page only shows celebrities who visit. Don't come here to eat. Mainly for ambiance. The staff try to rush you to order all at once..at these prices let me take my time. I don't appreciate being rushed and having a close to $300 bill for two people. At that price I will eat at my leisure. They had the nerve to tell me the chef prefers orders at once. I am going to be served when I go out to eat, not to be at the whim of a 1 star chef.
