Our last minute date night at Crave was wonderful. While it was busy and we didn't have reservations, the hostess allowed us options for inside or out. We opted for in right behind the host stand, same side sitting and enjoying the view from there. Maya greeted us with a warm smile and bubbly personality. The Good Life and Fade Into Black were our favorite cocktails of the evening. Every dish was flavorful and delicious. The ambiance was great and we had wonderful conversation with Maya and the hostess who gave us some history about the restaurant. We definitely recommend stopping by Crave Fishbar for your next meal.

We came here for the happy hour whoch is everyday!!! There was a large selection of oysters and other bites. Everything was delicious but what really stood out was the service from the staff especially Claire. She gave great recommendations and was very attentive. She was a total pleasure. We will definitely be back.

Great happy hour and dinner. Ashley was a wonderful server. Oysters and sea bass crudo were perfect starters, the mussels were delectable, and the wine and cocktails were excellent!

Love the Brioche French toast with vanilla bean whipped cream and blueberry compote. Also a fan of the fried cod fish and waffles!

We can't wait to return. Everything was excellent. It was like I imagine The Bear would be. People were friendly; Kyle, Lala, Jeremy, all the beautiful people who brought the food to our table, and made the experience magical. Kudos to all!

Salmon Taco appetizer was fantastic. Our server was energetic and helpful! The outdoor experience was lovely! Many good things to drink and eat there. Try the fizzy lemonade drink.

Very crowded Sunday night. Ashley the server was impeccable. Made a suggestion when asked. Oysters were perfection ... so were the tacos! Main course of a lobster roll and the barimundi delicious. All in all a delightful experience on a warm March evening.

Great atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable wait staff. The food has been excellent every time. Our favorite is happy hour, excellent oysters with great variety. The calamari are amazing.

Crave UWS never disappoints! Yesterday my friend canceled but I decided to go anyway. But being solo I released my reserved table and sat at the bar. It was great fun. And this is a fabulous time of year for oysters! They were all amazing.

We were a party of six and everyone loved their meal. Large portions of fresh and delicious fish. Unique sushi appetizers. Lively but not too noisy to hear everyone at the table. We were too full for dessert so can't comment on that portion of the menu.
Fish was fresh and of good quality . I ordered the lobster roll, and was surprised by the amount of mayonnaise. Wound not order again. The magnolia banana pudding was served in the to go bakery container.

This Upper West Side location is much better than Midtown East. Tried the brunch menu and everything was delicious. Service was excellent and our server was on her A game; checked in often and ensured that bottomless drinks were served with high frequency. Great rustic space.

I really enjoyed the oysters ($2 each during happy hour) so much that I had 2 dozen! I also enjoyed the Crave Burger and a glass of white wine. The staff was friendly and efficient, with good recommendations.

The service in the past has always been very good but unfortunately this time we had a server who forget about us and only delivered our main course when we called her attention to it after waiting an inordinate length of time

First time to Crave Fishbar and I thought it was very good. I had the Penicillin cocktail which was delicious as was the calamari starter. My friend had the steak which he said was excellent and I had the grilled dorade which was good but not outstanding. It is a fish with not a lot of meat so I found it a bit meager for the price. It was well seasoned. It was my friend's birthday so they brought out a cookie with a candle which was on the house-very nice. Overall, it was a very good meal. I just wouldn't order the dorade again.
