    I came to celebrate my birthday with my Mom and Sister and I loved everything about the restaurant, from the decor or flowers to the eatting areas. The servers and waitresses were so nice and helpful. We will definitely be coming back. The food was delicous as well.

    We celebrated our 10th year anniversary at Intercrew and it was amazing! They were able to accommodate my last minute request to have a customized menu with “happy anniversary” Written on top Of menu! Upon arrival, the host was friendly and even wished us a happy anniversary, as she sat us down at our table! The ambiance was amazing in there! Lighting wasn’t too bright or too dim! The live performer was great and covered some get r&b tracks, that had me sang a lot to all night. Our waitress was super nice and attentive and even brought us complementary champagne for our anniversary! We had tuna tartar for starter, rib eye steak and pasta for our main! Every dish was super delicious. The steak was huge and soooooo good and cooked perfectly to my likely (medium rare). The pasta was good as well, but the portion can be a little bit more generous! Overall, my experience was phenomenal and I’ve already told numerous of friends to give them a visit! We will defiantly be back for date nights and girls night out!

Knowledgeable, accessible, and friendly staff accentuated a complete, satisfying meal. Thanks!
