Bottom line up front, Cranes is a MUST for DC’s Winter Restaurant Week!
From the hostess's accommodation of our late arrival, friendly greeting, and front door coat check to our waiter’s, Elmer, and wait staff’s attentive service throughout our visit, Cranes was superb! The Faux-jito, Squash Hummus, Ramen, and Iberico Pork Fried Rice were fantastic! When there was a problem with our bill, it was quickly resolved.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend!!!
We celebrated my wife’s Birthday and it was absolutely sublime. Every dish was truly mouthwatering 🤤
The whole service team was amazing from our server Eva to the sommelier.manager, host and everyone we interacted with 🙏🏽
Will definitely be back 😃
Uniquely combined ingredients perfectly balanced for a wonderful meal. Highly recommend the omakase tasting menu!

Cranes is a highly recommended restaurant for both business and personal dining experiences, known for its unique blend of Spanish and Japanese flavors. The food is praised for its exceptional quality, with standout dishes like octopus, mushroom rice, and the innovative tasting menu. The uni and wagyu bites are noted for their melt-in-your-mouth texture, while the gyoza with Spanish twists adds a creative touch. The attentive and friendly staff, especially Sam, provide smooth service, making guests feel well taken care of without being stiff. The space itself is sleek, modern, and low-key sexy, ideal for date nights or celebrating big wins. Cranes also offers great tapas, including delicious shrimp tempura and mushroom soy glaze, alongside a perfect basque cheesecake for dessert. The happy hour menu features well-crafted cocktails and reasonably priced tapitas, while the omakase is delicious and the vibe is loved by customers. Brunch is a good deal, featuring a variety of small plates that creatively interweave Spanish and Japanese influences, although some guests wish for lighter options to balance the heavier dishes. Overall, Cranes delivers a Michelin-quality dining experience that feels fun, approachable, and full of good energy, making it a 5-star destination.
