| - Crave (the original) is one of my favorite restaurants. So when I heard about Crave Cantina, I was so excited! Who doesn't love tacos and tequila?
The night started with happy hour. The bartender was attentive, friendly, and very helpful. I got the queso, empanada, and a margarita. The queso was fabulous. And I loved that the empanadas are ala cart, per piece. The green sauce, beware. When eaten with the empanada is delightful. I took a big ol' bite of it by itself. It packs a mean punch!
The rest of my party arrived. We stayed at the bar and got a vast assortment of tacos. I personally got the ahi tuna and duck. I was very happy with with the amount of tuna. Some places like to skimp on tuna, but not Crave Cantina. The duck were also lovely.
I didn't get a chance to try any of the others that my friends got, but they looked delicious! Like the empanadas, the tacos are ala cart so you can try several kinds.
The cocktail menu is creative and fun. I'll be honest, I didn't love the 2 I got-- but purely based on personal preference. They were well executed. No big deal, I switched to a Moscow mule. ($6 for titos, which is a steal.)
I can't wait to come back!
