Craft 43 East 19th Street, Manhattan, New York 10003

"Came here for my anniversary dinner after knowing about it for a few years and finally having the chance to go. We ordered all vegetarian — two pasta dishes, fingerling potatoes, and the broccoli. Also ordered a NA drink and 2 sorbets and coconut ice cream. Everything was delicious, but the trofie pasta and coconut ice cream were standouts. The pasta was perfectly tender and the ice cream was SO creamy with the perfect coconut flavor. Plus, the service was excellent and they made it feel like a special night! Thank you Craft!!"

"I love the beef short rib. Very satisfying. I like the trout, gnocchi with truffle. Burgundy truffle is a little too mild for me. I like white alba truffle the most, is the most aromatic for me. Manager Tianna is amazing and goes above and beyond. I appreciate her greatly for creating me an off menu tropical desert. Exactly what I love"

"We had a truly lovely time at Craft. In a place that could’ve felt prohibitively pretentious we felt welcome and relaxed. The food was spot on, what you would expect from a celebrity chef in New York City with this legacy. -The squash and burratta was our favorite -The short ribs were our second favorite -Our soufflé was cooked perfectly but I didn’t save enough room for dessert -No amuse bouche -A wrapped pastry to go was produced from a basket at the host stand. Was tasty! -Bring more people to try more things! -They were out of scalloped potatoes and we didn’t dig the suggested alternative of aligot -Wish we were in a wine mood as the lovely Beverage Director Cheron would have certainly steered us to pairing heaven! Besides the culinary excellence, the part that we cherished the most was the warm service, especially from the clearly beloved-by-all Cesar!! We were sat about 20 minutes after our 8:15 reservation but our long leisurely dinner made up for it and made my husbands birthday celebration extra special."

"Service was spot on... There when needed but not overly aggressive. Although it's weird to me that you can't order appetizers and then your main course later but that's really a small quibble. Food was tasty but not amazing. Grilled octopus was not chewy but still have yet to find one better than Ostra in Boston. Mushroom risotto was the best dish we had. Brussels sprouts ok. Chicken was good and scallops were well cooked although gritty. Dessert was meh. My souffle was liquid in the center and creme brulee was just OK. Wines were amazing and pairing reccomendations were on point! Overall nothing was terrible but at the price point and with a Top Chef judge, I expect to be wowed and other than the risotto, wine and service we weren't."

"I came here with a group of people for a celebration. I had never heard of the place, but I’m so glad I got the chance to try it. We had a set menu that was served family style, which was great because we all got to try everything. For the first course we had the mixed lettuce salad, burrata, hamachi crudo. For the mains we had the green circle chicken and Meyers dry aged steak with caulini and potatoes on the side. They served cinnamon donuts for desert. Everything was really REALLY good to be honest, so it’s hard to pick what was my favorite. I really enjoyed the steak but the absolute standout were the potatoes! Seasoned to perfection, perfectly crispy and bursting with delicious herby flavor. We couldn’t get enough of them. The burrata was really interesting; there were figs and grapes in it. Sounds odd but it worked really well. I would definitely come back again. The sandia cocktail was also pure bliss! The servers were amazing; very attentive and focused on making sure we enjoyed ourselves."
