    So loud we couldn’t hear our server and I’m pretty sure my meat had expired. To be top rated by trip advisor was a joke. Will never return.

    There was a large table of golfers who were unacceptably loud making it difficult to hold a conversation at nearby tables

    Diane is excellent server, knows how to make you welcome, knows the menu, how options will effect the meal, plus great service. Food quality is the best. All diners at our table appreciate the chefs attention to details to make this a first class dining experience!

    Hosted a group dinner of 12 at Crane’s. Entire experience was great. Reservation was on time, service was outstanding and food was delivered as a group (no missing or delayed orders ). Food was perfectly cooked and everyone enjoyed their dishes. The restaurant was very busy and all tables were full so it was a little loud but certainly to be expected. Will definitely be back.
