Crave Fishbar - Midtown

Best oyster happy hour in NYC. In addition, other delicious dishes and cocktails. Attentive and good ambiance.

The food is always great there!
The seating was pretty tight. Very pretty space, though!

Nice to sit in the sidewalk under a big awning / shade but second avenue is noisy in the day!

Spectacular food as always. Great service. Love this place!!

First off, we were seated well away from the windows, which would've been preferable. Our server was excellent, he was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. However, the oysters lacked flavor and the crab was frozen. While the decor was attractive, I would not come back.

I love this place and it's happy hour. The staff is great especially the manager who is top notch. My go to for great food.

Staff were very accommodating, a good variety of food choices and very tasty too plus great value as well. Highly recommended,

Bringing a friend in for oysters

Great midtown seafood/oyster bar; service was great...bit overpriced for value, but a place I frequent quite a bit

Excellent food and service!!

Delicious oyster happy hour for me and husband. My young daughter loved her cavatelli!

Oyster specials before 7 PM is our main attraction . Do like the rest of the menu as well. Salmon tacos, sliders, pasta all good.

Excellent service, dinner was lovely and well presented. Outdoor seating on terrace was perfect. No question that I’d recommend this as a wonderful destination

The tables were too close together and the level of noise in the restaurant was so loud that I could not fully understand what the waitress was saying, or her from me as it turned out. I ordered the oyster and asked for a green salad and some fries. Unfortunately, somehow I ended up with a crab salad instead, which was far too big, as it was a meal in itself. Quite why the waitress thought I would want two meals is a mystery! After completing my meal I left immediately mainly due to the noise level. Some places have a good atmosphere with the noise this restaurant did not! The food was good which I have marked accordingly.

Excellent Happy Hour $1 -$1.50 oysters!

My favorite place to eat in NY - especially for oyster happy hour

Small flies were buzzing.

Always a good time at this place! Staff is friendly, ambiance is perfect and the food is good!

Great selection of oysters, creative dishes. Have the barramundi! Wonderful!

Very loud (too loud for introducing your boyfriend to your parents) and fairly pricey, but food and cocktails were delicious.

Food is excellent, but the toilet on the 2nd floor was broken. It depends on a server. Some servers are good, some of them are inconsiderate.

Had the mussels and steak frites and it was awesome. Steak cooked perfectly at medium rare and service was awesome. Will be going back

We were looking for an alternative to the usual corporate haunts in midtown and came across Crave Fishbar. The restaurant was great. The oysters were fresh. I had the squid ink spaghetti with shrimp which was really well prepared and flavorful. My friend had the scallops and she said it was really nicely done as well.

I love this restaurant for its best biggest delish freshest west coast oysters for only a dollar fifty! Always amazing expirience

Decent food, well prepared, if a bit pricey and uninspired. However, the music was terrible and unreasonably loud, the service was poor, and the blasting AC made it uncomfortably cold. We couldn't wait to get out of there.

Absolutely! Vibe was great. Booth comfortably fits 6 people. Fun bar. Service was excellent. Had the scallops, they were fabulous. The Moscow Mule was delicious and nice and cold in its copper cup.

Fantastic! Great Staff! We will definitely be back for another seafood feast.

We went on a Monday at 06:15pm for the Oysters happy hour. The restaurant was not too crowdy, the music was quiet and most of all the oysters were really good ! We've also ordered the mussels and it was good also ! The staff was nice and discreet !
Good place for an after work happy hour !

Booked 2 PM. But kitchen closed at 2:30, so it just didn’t really work.

The salmon tartare is incredible, the oysters are delightful, and the carrot cake w/ fig ice cream is delectable.

Everything we ate was fantastic especially the dinosaur salad.

awesome happy hour oysters!!! Everything was delicious.

My only complaint was the bourbon mule drink I ordered tasted like only soda. It was expensive $14 I wish I had sent it back

Great food, unique menu, charming place, great service

We met old friends at Crave Fishbar for lunch. This joint gets rave reviews. Why? It is nothing special. Our greeting was mirthless, she escorted us upstairs with neither a smile or comment. Our server was very pleasant, but was not very helpful with the menu. My lobster Caesar Salad was tasteless, and there was nothing Caesar about it. Fish sandwiches were bland, uninteresting and soggy.

My assumption is the the reviews for Crave Fishbar are composed by people who know little about food and enjoy the two bars at this restaurant. In addition, the decor is more Long John Silver than Le Bernardin. I picked Crave Fishbar based on the reviews. Now, I'm embarrassed.

It was nice to sit outside upstairs. No noise and perfect climate!

Great deal during happy hour , $1 oysters and the small bites menu is delicious . I’m never disappointed at this place one of my favorite places to go for seafood and their Bloody Mary is on point !!

Way too loud. Cannot hear anything. Not a good place for a date even though the food and drinks are excellent. The UWS location is better.

Great spot for choice cocktails and spirits, and some of the freshest seafood I've had in the city.

I enjoyed the barramundi but it felt very rich. Maybe a little gratuitous in spices and soy? It wasn’t bad just felt over seasoned.
