A last minute dinner for my friend's birthday - We didn't know what to expect but quickly discovered we had found a gem. Lou was excellent, very informative and helpful with helping us choose our drinks and meals. I have already recommended Crave to family and friends and will surely return. Great service, atmosphere, food and drinks!

I love this place! The staff is so warm and hospitable that I can come alone or with a group of ten and get the same excellent service. Happy hour with a huge variety of oysters is the best bargain in the city. Their seafood is great, but so is there cauliflower soup, which may not sound so special, but believe me, it is. It's my go-to place on the UWS.

The oysters and caviar were awesome. I also had the baby gem salad (huge! And delicious!) with the grilled octopus (great but would have been even better with lemon and a paprika aioli on the side). Husband had the steak and seemed to enjoy … the squash rings with grilled leeks as the accompaniment was a great choice. I liked my faux cocktail a lot; wish we had room for dessert. Staff was a little overwhelmed by Friday night crowd; additional coverage is the only thing that I’d say would have improved our experience. Overall, we’ll done!!

A table of abt 12 was allowed to scream and sing throughout our entire stay. They were sat in the middle of the dining room. Literally every other table was disturbed, annoyed, and our experience was entirely ruined. The Sancerre by the glass for $20 was almost indistinguishable from water. No bread was served with the muscles. When asked for bread we received something similar to Wonder Bread, instead of the customary crusty fFrench bread to soak up the broth. Expensive, and a negative experience.

I frequent UWS Crave Fish frequently, especially for their oyster happy hour at 4:30-6:00 on weekdays. Oysters and clams from the raw bar at always fantastic. Last night was there with my 2 Calfornia nephews who loved the food and Pumpkin Spice beer. I had perfectly grilled octopus and Cremant D'Alace. Wonderful friendly service. great place.

DISGUSTING! Used to go every two weeks for happy hour. Oysters are disgusting, hard little slimy bricks. Wine is overpriced. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID! I would rather take a train to Mystic CT and have real oysters.

When we came to Manhattan pre-Covid (yes, there was that time) for a family holiday event Crave was the only place open on Christmas Eve. Knowing nothing about it, we decided to take the risk and damn, are we glad we did. Fabulous, SUSTAINABLE seafood. Impeccable, cheery service. A great value. A welcoming, inclusive atmosphere that makes you feel part of the CF family. It is our go-to place in the city. Make it yours, too.

Great spot. The happy hour is a must do for oysters and drinks. The CFB Oyster Martini, served with oyster, is amazing. I had the Seared Yellowfin Tuna, which had a south-of-the-border corn accompaniment. It was delicious, but the fish wasn't the stand out in the dish. Next time I'll go with Naked Fish and side. Still, will be a place we revisit.

I love Crave but was disappointed that my dinner order was incorrect and by the time it was rectified - despite being told it would just take a minute - my dinner companion was already finished. I would have at least expected some reduction to the bill which did not happen. Getting a dinner order wrong is quite simply one of the worst things a restaurant can do and warrants a gesture to the customer. Also, my friend’s drink order was never delivered and we had to follow-up. And the restaurant was not that busy. Crave team - please work on the service quality and you will retain my loyalty.

The food feels as if it is produced by formula, which it, to a certain extent, is. Nonetheless, the fish is fresh and clearly prepared. My main nit would be that it tends to be oversauced.

For appetizers we ordered oysters with caviar - oysters were nothing special, and caviar woefully meager. The shrimp cocktail sauce was delicious, the shrimp were a tad rubbery. Mains were the lobster roll, again, nothing very special. Simply grilled Faroe Islands Salmon was nicely done, the broccolini side was a bit too al dente for my taste. For dessert we had the "CFB Famous Chocolate Chip Cookie" with a scoop of ice cream. It was a cookie. That's about all that can be said for it, and carrot cake which was fine. Overall, fine, but not what we had come to expect based on our previous visits. Service was very good, and they remembered a birthday, which was nice. Most likely we will return (it's in our neighborhood), but maybe we'll order more carefully next time....
