I may be shooting myself in the foot here, but Crave would be my top dining choice in the Charleston area for a romantic dinner. And, that would be over my other two most favorite restaurants: 5Church and Eleve.

We are enjoyed in jus restaurant:
Mac and cheese is delicious as advertised- calamari could have been a little crisper- sirloin was good , tuna appetizer was good-
Our only problem was the mussels, which were either over cooked or not fresh-
The server , Thomas immediately removed them from the check and offered us a free dessert-
The right thing to do-
Would recommend

All of the food was stone cold… Had a nice flavor but brought out cold…

We were there for my birthday dinner. 3 out of 5 meals were not enjoyed. 2 steak & Frites, the steak had too much gristle in them & tough. The Sea Scallops we’re under cooked. We should have spoken up sooner, but the manager took our drinks off our bill. The cedar plank salmon & Mac & cheese are always good!

We returned to Crave for our birthday gift from the restaurant (10% off each item and a free dessert). They were very busy, so things were a bit slower than usual. We weren't impressed with the mac & cheese fritters. The New Bedford scallops were excellent and the short rib gnocchi was huge but tasty. We'll be back.

Arrived early seated promptly

Staff from entry to presentation to service outstanding

Our wine from Friuli Pinot Gris excellent (we have a winery in northern Virginia and happen to produce Pinot Gris and yours was excellent)

Very enjoyable evening and will return when we return to Charleston

Our waitress was very kind and prompt. Food was good. No complaints!

Food was really really good. I got the Hanger steak, wife got the salmon on the cedar plank and my son got the braised short ribs… everything was perfect!! Jacob our waiter couldn’t of done a better job…. Highly recommend Crave!!!!!!

Always good food and good value. Love the ambiance-casual chic!

Great meal! This place never lets me down!

Honey and I enjoyed a tasty lunch following a drive to Sullivan Island and Isle of Palms. Crab cake atop a salad with arugula, roasted squash, garbanzo beans, toasted quinoa and grilled Brussel sprouts - yummy. Also had the mac and cheese - very creamy and good!

Server was so nice. Gave us a cup of soup because they were out of the pot pie that we wanted l

Our anniversary.....they did a very nice job....many servers stopped by to congratulate us. Food was great as was the service!

The She Crab soup was wonderfully tasty with the Spinach Salad and shrimp add on.
The service was great, even for Sunday early dinner!
A Palmetto lager went down cool and easy with the salad and soup.

Great brunch EXCEPT $14 is ridiculous to pay for a rail brand Bloody Mary.

We totally enjoyed our birthday experience at the restaurant. The food was wonderful we had a party of 8 Ladies and all were Happy but 2 .

Good atmosphere with professional service and good food!

Staff and service was fantastic. Food was not as outstanding as it has been before. 1 of 3 entrees was great (ribs gnocchi) , 1 was just a bowl of too-creamy Mac-n-cheese, and the seared tuna was over-seeded, overpriced and bland. All portions were over-sized.
Again, great staff.

We had reservations to celebrate our sister’s birthday. We enjoyed being in the tent and having the opportunity to socially distance. The food choices were great and affordable. The proportions were more than we could eat at one sitting. We highly recommend Crave for casual dining.

An outstanding experience
When: Weekend, dinner
Waiting time: No waiting time, need to make reservation
Food: As starter we asked for Mussels, that i don't recommend, it's below average without taste. As Entree we ordered Mac& Cheese with truffle mushrooms and I should say it’s the best Mac & Cheese we ever tasted. You have some options to add to your Mac&Cheese, but the one I choose it’s an outstanding suggestion. My wife chose the Cedar Plank Salmon that was very good. My son also chose Mac&Cheese for kids.
For dessert, Baked apple Crisp, good.
Drink: Good selection of draft and bottle beers. A large list of wines
Service: Medium speed, good for the type of restaurant
Parking: Free
Average expense: around $110 (with tip) for a couple and one child

We arrived 10 minutes early an were told to wait outside until our reservation time. At the reservation time the hostess walked outside and cleaned the table we were standing next to off, and dropped a pile of menus in the center for us. The waitress was pleasant but the timing of every course was off. Soups and appetizers were served before our drinks arrived. The entire party of 8 had finished all appetizers before the waitress came back to ask if we wanted to order dinner. One member of the party ordered a salad with steak as an entree which was delivered almost immediately, at least 15 minutes before the remainder of the entrees.

Patio dining had mosquitoes so staff moved us indoors which we greatly appreciated.
Noise level inside somewhat loud due to music (from kitchen area?).
Food was good and server was attentive.

We had a perfect time celebrating my wedding with my parents and new in laws

We normally love our dinners at Crave, but this one was just ok. Didn't feel up to their normal standard, but the dish we ordered was a "special" so might have just been a one time, not so great choice. Unfortunately, prices seem to have gone up, but that is happening everywhere right now due to inflated supply costs and availability, so I can't really say that I blame them. But the final number was about 25% higher than I would have expected, and unfortunately, didn't quite feel worth it this time. But the Mac n Cheese still lives up to expectations and their Moscow Mules are the best.

Was a wonderful dinner celebrating my husbands 60th birthday. Jacob was fabulous. Very attentive and provided excellent service.

Great service. Great salads and burger.

The service and food was very good. Atmosphere very nice with a pub feel.
I wish there was espresso or cappuccino to finish the meal

Great food and atmosphere.

Crave was an excellent choice. The food was exquisite and the cocktails were amazing!

Good was average to say the least. Everything under seasoned. Mac and cheese not all that!

Horrific. From the moment we walked in for our reservation, I knew we chose wrong. Let me start by saying go anywhere but here. (We went to KiKis the next day and it was 100% better)

We reserved a table inside and the hostess made us sit outside under a molded, cold tent in the pouring rain. We sat there for about 7 minutes before I went inside to see why we had not been greeted yet. No hostess even seemed concerned. We came back in again and I said to them and the manager, we have not been greeted, it’s cold out there so we’ll sit in the bar area. At that point, the manager should have come to our table to apologize and turn the night around. But of course, he didn’t. Had he, our night may have turned around a bit.

The food was mediocre. The only item I enjoyed was the crab cakes. The “famous Mac and cheese” was nothing special and my ribeye had zero marbling in it. It was clearly the end of the loin which most people do not prefer when ordering a ribeye. Not to mention none of our food was piping hot. Needless to say, do not waste your trip to Charleston coming here, you will spend $200 and wish you went to Jersey Mikes instead.

Service was superb. The food was amazing. I got the hangar steak with brie, kids got the mac. We understand why they won awards for it. They have our vote too. We will be back.

Very nice dinner with family. Great wine selection.......will definitely be back.

Nice place to meet another couple for a double date.

Relaxing atmosphere with great food. Servers are nice and attentive. Easy place to meet, have conversations while enjoying great meals with family or friends.
