We went to Craft to celebrate our anniversary and loved it! The setting is very nice, great acoustics and service, and the food was delicious! I had melt in your mouth duck with yummy bougere potatoes & carrots cooked especially for me to avoid some food allergies. My husband had the hamachi appetizer which was excellent, followed by the veal breast--a cut we'd never had before--perfection.

Be warned, the food is served family style and in generous portions. We each ordered a chocolate souffle (comes with Earl Grey tea ice cream???) but we got vanilla. While good, it was too pudding like and rich for me--I prefer the lighter versions. Service was attentive but not intrusive and would definitely return.

One of the best meals I have ever had. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and gave great advice about the offerings. Food and service were absolutely fantastic.

Have been to Craft many times for both lunch and dinner . Last nights dinner was superb . Food was delicious - hamachi , octopus and arugula salad all perfect . For entrees the scallops were absolutely delicious , and so was trout and pasta with sausage . Sides of mixed mushrooms and chanterelle and corn risotto were insane . And the sommelier chose the best Barbaresco I have had in years . Great food , great service and able to maintain good conversation .

The cuisine is the main attraction at Craft. Helmed by Tom Colicchio, the restauranteur par excellence, this elegant restaurant attracts a large swath of customers. The interior is beautiful with flowers and paintings. As eating here is expensive, it is ideal to come here for Restaurant Week. Joann and I had lunch here in August. An appetizing three course meal where we munched on heirloom tomato salad, prawns, skate, pasta with a hearty meat sauce, vanilla cake and a summery peach tart. I drank a rosé. Service here is impeccable and the noise level is hushed.

Highly recommended!

Food and service were outstanding. Three of us dined at Craft on a Friday. Two had sea bass and one duck breast as main courses. Perfectly cooked, cleanly executed, beautiful presentation. A bit pricey, we would consider it a special occasion place.
