Crave Fishbar - Midtown

This was my first experience dining at Crave Fishbar, although I had heard many great things. Dinner was delicious, and the staff, the ambience... wonderful. Yes, I can say despite the noise and busy-ness, it was wonderful. Could easily see going there for dinner at least once a week! Thanks so much everyone at Crave Fishbar!👏

I’d been to Crave Bar west but this was an order of magnitude better. We had the seared tuna and were blown away by how beautifully it was presented, cooked and seasoned. Happy hour oysters offered a large selection. Definitely returning.

Charlie was great, and Cristie was wondering. I was happy to now discovered this fantastic restaurant in my neighborhood. I plan to be a frequent visitor.

Sorry I forgot the shackle wine 🙈
Grilled octopus 👍
Calamari 👍
The brass (but it's called something else). I also have the skin. 👌
I can't remember what my fiance got, but it was good as well. 👍
Dessert: can't remember, and was also good. 🙈

Crave is probably my most frequently recommended restaurant to people in our neighborhood. The happy hour specials are fantastic, ambiance is great, and service cannot be beat. Consider this a must go!

This place was hyped up a lot, but fell short. Was an average seafood restaurant.

Oysters were superb especially during happy hour when they were $1 for each oyster and offering all the various types. Service was very attentive while food taste and presentation was perfect. Highly recommend and will be back.

Excellent food and service and happy hour pricing is excellent!!

Good is very good. Some dishes excellent. A great neighborhood place

The smell from the bathroom was awful and forced us to leave the restaurant. We told the manager but she didn’t care and didn’t even acknowledge they had a problem

Food is good. Service is not bad, just a bit crispy.

Really tasty, interesting food! Thoughtful, friendly service ‼️

Great place for fresh oysters and seafood. Definitely try Happy Hour from 5-7pm.

Great food, good value.

One year roomaversary with my roomate lol

Surprisingly flavorful! Great ingredients beautifully prepared. Knowledgeable and confident staff. A neighborhood gem.

まず開店10分前についた。まだ10分あるわよみたいなちょっと感じのわるい案内係のおねぇちゃんに振り切られた。5時丁度に戻ってきたらもう3−4分待たされた。そしてこっちを見向きもしない。

つぎにお食事について。
テーブルが安定してなくてガクガクしてた。誰もいない5時の予約でスタッフたくさんいたのに、サービスがちょっと遅い。スタッフのおすすめの勧め方がどうでもよさそうな感じだった。食事自体は美味しかったけど普通においしいだけだった。ので、ちょっとオトシたかな。

Great oyster, tasty and fresh clams.
Alex is very nice and attentive. I enjoy my time in CFB.

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!

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

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

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.
