CRAVE American Kitchen & Sushi Bar (Woodbury Lakes - Woodbury)

Oh my goodness believe it or not we had never been to Crave before, but boy were my taste buds delighted and I was pleasantly surprised by all of the delicious, non sushi, options! Upon arrival, the women at the hostess station were kind and helpful to accommodate our party of adults, kids, and a baby mixed. The hosts dried off an outdoor table and got us set up in the sunshine, with an umbrella close by to protect the young ones among us from the sun if it got to hot or bright. Our server Wyatt was also very kind and helpful. I ordered the Wagyu Beef Burger and have a few food intolerances. Wyatt was happy to accommodate all of my preferences without.aking me feel uncomfortable making my request. In that note, they also have a an extensive Gluten Sensitive menu which I thought was very thoughtful. Okay, back to the burger, so I got Wagyu burger cooked medium rare, per Wyatt's suggestion, and it was very good. Plus, the mound of Rosemary Parmesan Fries I got with my plate were definitely delicious. The Aioli served with my burger was on the side and it was absolutely delicious! I decided to dip my fries in it and yum, it was so good. I also tasted a friend's sweet potato fries, they asked for them to be extra crispy and oh my lanta, yuuuuuum!! They were some of my favorite sweet potato fries I've ever eaten. They were super savory, seriously, so good. The photo of the sushi rolls were my hubby's and I gave him some of my fries, they did not come with his rolls. He had the Dynamite and Spicy Salmon rolls and said they were both pretty good. Another guest had the BLT chicken Caesar Salad in the photos and oh my goodness did it ever look delicious! It is served with sun-dried tomatoes, amazing. I also had the seaweed salad as a starter. I did not add any meat. It was pretty good. It was pretty lemony and a tiny bit spicy (but I am not a spice person at all). I added a little soy sauce and it was all good. Sorry I forgot to take a picture! Lastly, we had two kids with. One got a kids pizza with fries and the other had chicken tenders with fries. The portions were very large, especially the fries. Both of the kiddos seemed to enjoy both of their meals. Overall, we had a really great experience and the food was very tasty. I look forward to going back to try more items off of their menu.

Great cocktails. Loved the blood orange margarita! Gluten free options are listed in the back of the menu. But be sure to inform the server if you have an allergy. I could not have the fries as there is no dedicated fryer. 3 of our group had the steak medallions with mashed potatoes and carrots. One had the the Wagyu burger with a salad. One had a vegetarian pasta dish. Food was flavorful, although pricey. Our table was ready at our reserved time on busy Friday night. Great service.
