| - Let's get one thing straight from the giddy-up. I'm giving this restaurant one star because Yelp won't allow me to give it a big, fat zero. The food was horrible. No flavor whatsoever, and that goes for the calamari appetizer, the arugula and shrimp salad, and the eggplant parmesan pseudo-calzone. My fellow diners and I had no choice but to slather the bland marinara sauce over everything , whether it belonged there or not. Then, in a further attempt to make all three dishes edible, we had to bury every bite in grated cheese. The salad required extra dressing to make it passable. The economy stinks and people are being more careful with their money these days. This place should be fined for serving "food" like this. I wasn't the one who paid for this meal, but had I been, I would've read the manager the riot act and demanded that the dinner be free. Honestly, it wasn't worth any price. In a word, garbage. I don't see how any of the other reviewers could like Crust. Yes, it's always possible that the chef was having an off night. But how do you screw up a friggin' salad? How do you fry calamari wrong? If the place is named Crust, aren't you the least bit embarrassed that your crust sucks? Well, it does, and I'm embarrassed enough for both of us. I just hope this food is better going out than it was going in. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
