Reviews for Crave Restaurant Downtown Santa Ana in Santa Ana, CA

Simple place to go and grab a bite to eat. Kind of pricey, but what isn't nowadays? Parking is non-existent and seating is... limited. If you are going in a group get there early Read more

Nice and quick. Had a great fresh sandwich with a side of fruit. I was able to get in and eat in about 35 min right at 12:15... during the lunch rush. Read more

I had the blta. The bread was great but overall the sandwich was a bit dull. The room itself is nice and the vibe was fun... and lively. I would go back but I would not get the blta. Read more

Another perk of working in Downtown Santa Ana, is having access to restaurants like Crave. I love going here for breakfast if I... feel like staying somewhat healthy, because I?m still satisfied and full when I leave. I got the make your own omelette whichcomes with a side of country potatoes and sourdough toast. Ok, maybe I got a side of the oatmeal raisin cookie as well, but ohwell! You got to check this place out. ???? Read more

Went here with the bf for brunch on a weekend morning. He got the Chicken Melt with the fresh fruit on the side and I got their... half sandwich and half soup (Grilled Beef Tri-Tip Sandwich with their soup of the day - Rustic Mushroom Soup). Here's mybreakdown of the food: Their sour dough bread was f-bomb delicious. I regret not asking if they sell their sourdough alone so Ican bring home and make myself some sandwiches. The meat on both sandwiches seem to be off. The chicken was too dry. The tri-tiphad a weird tang after-taste. The tang/sour taste is similar to when eating lamb. It wasn't something anyone would expect wheneating beef tri-tip. I wasn't sure if the dip made it tangy/sour but when I brought it up with the waitress, she told me shethought so too when she had it last. The cheese was ok in the chicken melt. The rustic mushroom soup was very good. I LOVEmushroom and the soup tasted very mushroom concentrated. It wasn't very creamy but it wasn't watery either. I would definitelyrecommend for mushroom lovers. Service & Ambiance: The place was not noisy nor was it too quiet. It was a lovely place to havebrunch. The waitress was very friendly and same with the manager working there. OVERALL: I would love to come back to try theiromelets next time. I'm also hoping they fix their meats as I think it would definitely improve their food. Service waswonderful. Read more

Downtown Santa Ana has been stepping up it's game! A great space and fun decor inside with friendly and helpful staff. For a... first time experience, the menu is straight forward, showing some twists on classics, with vegan and vegetarian options, a fullcoffee menu and a full bar. Recrecommended: Bottomless mimosas $15 ?Also.. Ask about the off menu option! This particularSaturday morning they offered Crème Brûlée French Toast with fresh blueberries and strawberries. ???????????? Read more

Really great food that the restaurant gives its own personality and flavours to. Not just a basic breakfast you can get anywhere... for the good price they sell it for! The atmosphere is great, open space with nice seating and a nice mellow playlist in thebackground. Service is pay at the register first and someone will bring you your food! Very casual. I loved this place! Read more

Came here with friends on a Wednesday night and service was friendly and prompt. Sandwiches were good but the soups were great.... Also had their cold brew coffee and enjoyed that as well. Read more
