Welcome to Crave Food & Drink Edina

“ The renovated space feels like a resort-style retreat—beautiful, calm, and incredibly relaxing. We absolutely loved the atmosphere. We were also blessed with an amazing server, Sophie—attentive, quick, and always greeting us with a genuine smile. After reading some mixed reviews, I feel especially grateful we had such a great experience, particularly since we hadn’t been back in over a year. The food was excellent. I had the Thai steak, and my wife ordered the chicken rice bowl—both were delicious and well-prepared. They also have a full bar with a solid wine selection and plenty of great non-alcoholic options. Overall, a wonderful experience, and we’ll definitely be back! ”

“ I usually go to the Crave restaurant in Maple Grove, but once in a while when I’m in this area, I come to this one as well. The staff has always been extremely kind and service has always been quick and efficient. I love the decor inside with the earth tones. The food is amazing as always. I absolutely love their new menu and some of the new dishes that they have. However, I do wish they will come up with a few new drink items on the menu. ”

“ We had a disappointing first day in Minnesota when it came to food, so we were really hoping to turn things around on day two. We originally planned to eat at The Original Pancake House right across the street, but after waiting nearly 50 minutes for a table with no update, we decided to look around for other options. That’s when I spotted Crave across the street and I’m so glad we gave it a try! I ordered the Steak frites, cooked medium rare, and it was absolutely delicious, easily the best meal we’d had since arriving. It came with truffle fries and asparagus. My only small critique is that the fries portion was a bit much, and I would’ve loved more asparagus to balance the plate. Other than that, the dish was perfect. Before ordering any other drinks, I started with a double shot of espresso, mainly because I’ve had a string of disappointing coffee experiences in Minnesota so far. As someone who makes espresso at home on my own machine, I could tell right away that the grind was too coarse. The shot tasted overly bitter, and the volume was too large for a proper double, which reinforced my thought that the grind and extraction time were off. Because of that, I decided not to order any additional coffee drinks and we just stuck with water for the rest of the meal. My boyfriend ordered the burger, also medium rare, with a side salad. I tasted the salad and was genuinely impressed the balsamic dressing was so good, even for someone like me who’s not usually a fan. He said the burger could’ve used a bit more seasoning, but it was still a solid step up from what we had previously. The restaurant is located in one of the newer malls in the area very stylish, clean, and with friendly staff. Overall, we gave the experience an 8 out of 10. Nearly perfect, and such a welcome surprise after a rough start with food and coffee in Minnesota. We’re so glad we ended up at Crave! ”
