We love the food here, but we've had very inconsistent experiences. Sometimes they bring bread. Sometimes there is no bread. Sometimes bread comes out with entrees. They are frequently out of things. The hostess is either standing there reading her phone rather than assisting the team, or people are leaving because there is no one there to greet them. One time our entrees took 40+ minutes because they burned the paella. Other times the paella is not cooked properly. BUT all this being said...when they are on their game, the food is truly delicious. Crave, please get your act together on hosting and service so we can continue loving our outings there. We don't want to see you fail as most restaurants in the Valley ultimately do.

I came here on the recommendation of a family member. It did not disappoint. The food was excellent! The chef told me they also deliver. I ordered something different and it was amazing. My compliments to the chef on great food!

I am not familiar with this food type, but the service person explained any questions I had. I bought take out and used a coupon I had. The price was very reasonably and the amount of food was enough for leftovers.
