Craft New York

We were in the city to try food places specifically, with this being Tom Colicchio's restaurant, us being huge Top Chef fans it was a easy choice. The restaurant is very nice and semi casual. The drinks were great, service was great. The food was where it didn't live up to the expectations. Nothing stood out, nothing overly impressed you to say you'd come back for that meal. It did not feel like a $250+ dinner for 2. It felt like $100-$150. Glad we tried it? Yes. Would we go back? No, too many other options in this price range to try.

Another excellent experience at the bar at Craft. They do it right from the moment you walk in - I had a lovely chat with their maitre d Anita before settling in at the bar. Fabricio took great care of me, and I overheard him charming both regulars and new guests as more folks trickled in. The orange wine from Slovenia was delicious, and I love their rotating Cab Franc selection. It bears repeating, the amuse bouche is a lost art, and their seasonal butternut squash soup with chestnut foam was beautifully executed. Might start making a habit of ending my workdays at Craft!

Came here for restaurant week and had an amazing time! Service was exceptional. Food and drinks were divine! I would certainly return.

Went for a friends birthday. Staff was nice enough but it felt like it took a while for them to actually take our order for the amount of staff running around doing things. Food was good but small portions for the price, it’s definitely the type of place you go for special occasions only and with your older family…I wouldn’t say it’s the hippest menu. My duck dish was solid, it didn’t come very warm though. Overall I’d maybe come back & it’s worth a try.

We dined at Craft tonight and from the moment we sat down until the moment we left, the experience was excellent. I would like to mention all of the staff we had the pleasure of meeting including Natalia, Tiana, and Bryce. Natalia was very knowledgeable about wine suggestions and the menu. Tiana personally made our cappuccino when we ordered it with dessert. Tiana went out of her way to make our dining experience special. Bryce gave us a parting gift on the way out, Craft muffins. Overall, this was a fantastic dining experience and the best service we’ve had at a restaurant in New York. Thank you to Natalia, Tiana and Bryce!
