    Terrific restaurant! Good and service were impeccable. I had the ribs (it was a special) and my husband had the cioppino. For dessert we had the banana pudding and key lime tartlets. Both outstanding. Highly recommend!

    Even though Craig's has a reputation for being a celebrity hot spot, it is so much more than that. The food is fabulous, and I've never had a meal there that I didn't love. And I'm a foodie. The waitstaff is super friendly and accommodating. Aside from the entrees, great drinks and great desserts. Highly recommend if you can get a reservation.

    Absolutely outstanding service from the host/hostess to the bar staff to Jeana, our amazing server. The ambiance was so warm and inviting and the music was fun and upbeat. Jeana was so knowledgeable and suggestive with entrees. Jeana was so attentive and friendly and kind and timed everything out so perfectly. She was an absolute gem and really enhanced our dining experience. The food was delicious! We started with calamari and pigs in a blanket at the bar along with a key lime martini that was amazing! At our table we ordered a variety to share amongst the four of us. The chicken parmigiana, the braised short ribs, the margherita pizza, the macaroni and cheese, the pork ribs special, the beef bolognese and the jalapeño creamed corn. Everything was fantastic!! We finished off with a key lime tartlet and fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and cappuccino. What a great experience we had from all of the staff! We never had an empty glass of water or a dirty plate. Thank you for providing such a great night.

    We had heard great things about Craig’s and were excited to try some classic Italian food, as it feels harder to come by on the west coast. I wish they had better seating for two as the options (as far as I could see) were a two-top on the other side of the door entry and then right next to the hostess stand and bussing area. I prefer to not sit in such high traffic areas, and really takes away from the overall enjoyment. Although I noticed two gentleman were seated at a larger semi-circle table, not sure if they were regulars or someone of importance but the similar tables had parties of 4+. We started with a salad to share, and we did appreciate it already being split for us — usually you can never really split a salad well otherwise. My husband had the owner’s clam show and I ordered the lobster diavolo. Sauces were decent, although missing some flavor. Both my husband’s clams and my lobster were overcooked and tough. No classic Italian desserts but the vegan ice cream was enjoyable and light, not overly sweet. Overall, I would most likely try somewhere else for Italian before revisiting Craig’s.

    Mediocre food but great service. Very distracting having large TVs at the bar Takes away from the charm of the restaurant and makes it feel more like a pub.
