    We celebrated my birthday at Craft, and every aspect of the dinner was excellent. From the food, the service, the wine, the music, the ambiance; everything. Highly recommended for every day meals out or special occasions. Portion sizes are also very reasonable, and the price-quality ratio can't be beat. Real ingredients are showcased for their inherent value, rather than over-processing foods into foams, etc. If you want to enjoy excellent products in an excellent space, look no further.
