PERMANENTLY CLOSED. We made the mistake of driving all the way out here thinking it was open and Google has not updated it despite multiple edit suggestions.

Cru is closed. Sure would be nice if they would note it on this listing.

The food was absolutely amazing. The cooking staff was super helpful in dealing with my food allergies and I will definitely be returning.

Visited on New Year's Eve. Cru Bistro had a special menu plus regular menu. Had filet mignon from regular menu. It was under cooked, but otherwise excellent. Sides were exceptional. Even though room is small, it was very noisy. Also would have liked to order the bread pudding for desert. Since it was on the special menu and our group had all ordered off the regular menu, they would not sell it to us. We all left without ordering desert. This was a bad end to an otherwise enjoyable dining experience. Never have experienced a restaurant denying a request from a customer for something they had. Between our group, we probably would have spent another $50 if we could have ordered the bread pudding.

Very good and extensive wine list. Food is also very good. A tad on the expensive side, however.

Great selection of all different types of food made and presented in a gourmet upscale style! Wonderful that UberEATS does delivery for Cru!

This is a great place for a Sunday lunch. We all had a great meal and the service was outstanding. We didn't realize it was a brunch menu but they let us order from the regular menu which was nice since none of us wanted a 'breakfast'. We will be back!

My sister and I stopped in for a casual drink at the bar. Neither of us has ever been before. We had a lovely experience! It was pretty quiet inside, only a few tables full and nobody else at the bar. Both the bartender and the host we very kind and conversational with us!

Great lunch experience at Cru! Enjoyed a lovely day on the patio. Hummus plate was generous with great tastes! Mini tower salad always a great choice and very filling! Service was fast, friendly and attentive!

Upscale bistro dining right in Turkey Creek. I was suprised by the atmosphere and service level of this upscale eatery. Excellent wine selection and great menu. Certainly worth the visit if you are looking for a more sophisticated experience.

I had a bad experience with a Togo order. Wrong items and missing items aside from what we were given was not good. I called and spoke with the manager and I was very surprised at his lack of interest. He didn't seem to care at all. We ordered from Bite squad and he blamed them. It for sure Could've set too long because of bite squad, but bite squad didn't get the order wrong and leave out part of it. Aside from the bad experience I was way more disappointed in the way the manager handled it. It was very unprofessional. I worked in restaurants for 13 years and I've never known a manager to treat a customer like that. $70 wasted! After a long drive back from the beach I just wanted decent food for my birthday.

Not friendly server. When asking server about an additional item that usually came on the wedge salad, the server was curt and said "no." I knew I was right, as I checked the online menu after I left and there was supposed to be bacon on the salad. For the wedge salad, I was only given the core. This is always my favorite item to get and it was awful.

This is in huge shopping, restaurant and hotel area west of Knoxville off I75. Inside was cold and noisy so we sat outside which was much more pleasant. Service was excellent... we were well cared for by Sarah and the other gal working our tables. Cesar was excellent though this time of year I wish restaurants would use garden tomatoes. My hubby had the beef sliders which he thought were great. The french fries were superb.. hot, crisp and appropriately salted. My artichocke and wild mushroom pasta was good but wished there had been some more murshrooms in it... on the skimpy side. Nice pour of wine for $8.
