| - Crop Kitchen is a nice addition to the University Circle area.
Now, this isn't the same level as Crop, but I like how it adds a different flair to the area.
I've always been a fan of Crop. So when I heard there was going to be a different style of Crop in the same place where Accent was- well, just had to go!
There's been some good and bad items I've tried, but it's overall been good:
- Green Tea Soba Noodles- tasty and the noodles are cooked well. Flavorful and light. I didn't think I would like them, but I actually really did.
- Orange Miso Popcorn- not really a fan. It was definitely orange-y. I rather have the balsamic popcorn at Crop actually.
- Smoked Braised Pork- wow, this is great dish. The meat was tender and the sauce was just delicious. Recommend!
- Chicken Curry Rice- well cooked and well done. However, just didn't think there was much to it. I did like the black rice though.
- Beef Udon Noodle- it was good. I thought it was a bit pricey for what it was, but it was good.
- Cedar Planked salmon- also very good. It was a special of the night, but it was definitely tasty.
- Baked Apple Drink- no. Way too strong. Not sure if they dumped a whole bottle in there, but I felt like I was about to be lit on fire. Could have just been that night though.
- Microbrews- nice selection!
So, overall, I still give the place four stars. It's nice, has a large variety of food, and can please any crowd- to the daters, to the people who want to watch sports and play pool, to the people who are just interested in happy hour.
Park in the parking lot behind CLE Yoga though- it's free after 5pm. Definitely try Crop Kitchen-it's a nice addition to the neighborhood!
