5 of us went to Crawford’s and , gotta say, it was bad. It was Halloween night and the music they were playing was insanely loud and bad. The service was just as bad. We had to ask to have the table bussed when we were done with the barely there truffle fries, mediocre meat balls and overly spiced scrimp starters. 3 uninspiring and almost tasteless $28 dollar cheeseburgers, comically dinky $9/each sliders and a semi tough $46 skirt steak. Throw in a couple lousy drinks and it adds up to not good. Top it off with the barely there waiter standing there waiting for his tip on the electronic thingy for the win! Never again…

Our server was amazing! We came at a weird time at the end of brunch, so the dinner menu was not available yet (we weren't aware that the lunch menu is not available on weekends). Still, our server (Mitch) was able to confirm with the kitchen that the things we wanted to order off the dinner menu were available earlier than they normally allow, which was perfect. The appetizers were good; we got the Yellowfin Tuna Bites and the Street Corn Riblets, both good portions and very delicious. Our entrees were good, not amazing. My main issue was the Pork Chop Martini, which may have been my own fault, but I did not enjoy the taste at all. It was a great serving size, but not what I expected flavor-wise, so I'd recommend ordering something else. My husband and mother both ordered the Ribeye Steak Sandwich, which they liked. They also brought out a little butter cake as we were celebrating a birthday. Overall, a pleasant time. I wish I had ordered something other than the Pork Chop Martini, since I ended up eating most of my husband's fries instead.

Had to pay upfront for a set menu. There was live entertainment which was the reason we booked a reservation. We were seated behind a tree. Our waitress was very nice but there was not enough staff working to be timely with service, both drinks and food. There was 3 of us in our party. Sitting was strictly based on the number of people in your party and the time of your reservation. No explanation on how reservations wee going to work for the evening. The larger the party, the better seating you got. I didn't agree with this. I'm my opinion, it should have been a mix and it shouldn't have mattered the time of your reservation as to where you would be seated. The restaurant seated large parties upfront to see the band and hear the music and small parties were seated in the back. When the food was served 2 of the 3 meals were NOT good. Spoke with the manager and he did nothing but apology.

We reserved an outdoor table via OpenTable but were told only indoor tables were available when we arrived as there was an event outside. The music volume was so loud it felt like we were at a club…. We has to ask twice to turn it down….

Attended Crawford’s Pink Party that included fund raising for local charities. Everything was elegant and well-organized for a great cause. Fun night of food, drinks, music, and socializing. They know how to throw a party.
