The atmosphere seemed nice here, but I didn't eat - just drinks for my girl and I. They had a great beer selection and pricey mixed drinks - all of which were very good. It seems someone invented the marketing term "craft cocktails". It means you can charge a lot more for something bartenders have been mixing up for a thousand years or so. My father was telling me, "Nobody orders Tom Collins's or Whiskey Sours so much anymore, but believe me - in my day there were many complicated mixed drinks. You'd be surprised." I might come back and try the food, but I have to give that some thought. This Danbury location had a wonderful bartender hitting on my wife the whole time, which was partly amusing then mostly annoying. I still gave him a decent tip, hoping he'll save up and maybe move out of his parents house and find himself his own girl with a paid Tinder membership. If you're a single girl or divorcee, I strongly recommend a seat at the bar. You won't be missed - there's a guy in heat behind the bar. read more

Old Fashion's to start were AWESOME, followed by Brussel sprouts that will not disappoint (unique), then tuna pad Thai and shrimp tacos, both amazing. To boot, Ray was amazing server, A+. read more

Our meal was amazing! The service was stellar! A true foodie experience. I could not recommend Craft Kitchen and Bar more. All this with a two year old in tow! Also try the crème brûlée cheesecake...soooo good! read more

Craft Kitchen and Bar - Burrata Short Rib Burnt Ends - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Danbury, Connecticut

Thought we'd give it a try, looking for something convenient and close to home we stopped in. Place was not busy and service was horrible...waiter had a bit of an attitude, maybe just a bad day but regardless we had to flag a different server down to get another drink.. Food took a bit to come out, octopus was decent-there were a few really chewy pieces. Burger was good, chicken sandwich not so much. Doubt we'll go back. Not sure why service was so bad especially with it being pretty much empty. read more

I arrived at 10:45pm walking up to the door a women left. I saw two people inside. One behind the bar and the other at the bar. Sign says closes at 1200. Door locked. They would not respond to me. Rude. read more

We found the service good and the wine menu was solid for sure. Most of what we ordered was good to great but there were some serious misses as well. By that I mean cooked poorly not a taste issue. I feel like with some work and quality controll this place could go to 5 stars. My advice woul be to shirnk your menu and don't try to be all things to all people. read more

I recently hired Craft Kitchen & Bar to cater a company party we were having at our showroom in Danbury. From start to finish, the experience was flawless. Jasson is a true professional; he met with me to discuss options, listened thoroughly, and what he and his team executed was beyond our expectations. A charcuterie board, a crudites platter, Mediterranean board, crab cake bites, bacon-wrapped scallops, and more. Beautifully plated, elegant, and SO delicious. Price was very reasonable. Jasson was great with communication and made sure our event went off perfectly. Staff and clients loved the food. 5/5 stars, highly recommend! read more

A very cool place to hangout, have a couple of drinks & enjoy good food by yourself, with a couple and our group of people

Always good food and drinks, shrimp and grits are awesome, but really we've never had a bad meal

Came here w my friend. We ordered two espresso martinis. They were sub par to say the least. Way too sweet and honestly just not good. We decided to order fries and the bartender asked if we wanted truffle fries or regular.... We took a moment to decide and decided on the truffle fries. About 30 min goes by and we haven't received our fries so we asked for the check.. and she had never even put the fries order in! I thought for sure she was going to say something about the fries, but she didn't. Disappointing, annoying, wont be back. read more

Ordered the pork belly and got 2 slices of bacon. WTF!! Service was awesome. read more

The food here is good and there is a very cool atmosphere! We will likely come back here because we can see it has great potential, however our first visit was not what we expected. Our food and drinks (just sodas...) took FOREVER. There was no acknowledgement of how long we had been waiting. We enjoyed our meals when they finally came, so we hope this was just a one time thing. We will try again! read more

An enjoyable experience; highly recommend. The Tagliatelle Jalapeno Pasta with Crabmeat, pesto and corn was excellent. It came in a rounded bowl and stayed warm until my meal was done. The Creme Brulee Cheese Cake with Berries Compote has a delicate Brulee crust and the berries a bit tart. Indescribably Delicious. My martini was perfectly made and included Cylinder Vodka, which is locally made in Connecticut. read more

Ordered take out Siracha Butter wings. Made quickly... within 10 min had them in hand. Got out to the parking lot, immediately opened them to have one. They were soggy and not very hot. The Sriracha flavor was good though. Also, way too expensive. Only 6 wing pieces (equalling 3 full wings) for $15.00 after tax.... Not worth the money. read more

This place is amazing! You can get a cheese burger and their fries are yummy too. The lemonade is great. I recommend this place for burger lovers! read more

We came to Craft Kitchen and Bar for a birthday dinner and they were super accommodating and the place was perfect! They have a private dining area for our large party and the manager was very responsive in which we appreciated. The food, drinks, and service was truly amazing and I would definitely recommend to come here. Their truffle fries were DELICIOUS! A must try. We ordered many different dishes the menu and all of them were so good. read more

Stopped here traveling between Scranton and Maine. Close to I-84. Wonderfully delicious gourmet food and nice atmosphere both inside and out. read more

One of our neighborhood recommend that place and I was pretty excited to try that place. From the beginning, service was amazing waitresses and waiters are very nice keep checking if we need anything else. We ordered calamari as a starter. They served in a different way that I really liked. It was perfectly cooked and kinda make you addicted to eat more . I ordered fillet mignon as an entree. All I can say, I knew I wasn't at the steakhouse my fillet mignon was kinda a blend. It wasn't has a good falvor ( maybe it wasn't marinated enough) it was so so. I ordered medium it came kinda a burned top in the middle of my steak was medium well. I definitely will try something else on next time. As a dessert I had a cream brulee cheesecake. Omg it was fantastic. It was so so so delicious. I may just go there having a dessert too . All I can say, it was a great experience and great evening. Thank you. read more

Craft Kitchen and Bar - Arugula salad, black truffle mac & cheese, scallops, pesto pasta. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Danbury, Connecticut

If i could give half a star I would. My friends and I wanted a place to just have a drink and have a nice night, we had ordered some fast food beforehand and just wanted to sit outside somewhere. So we went inside and asked one of the waitress if we could just eat our food outside and get drinks and she said no. Rightfully so! So we went back to our car and had our meal. But obviously didn't want to end our night there so we decided to go back to this place and just get drinks. As soon as we walked in and tried to get seated another waitress who we had not seen before said to us " oh you guys had outside food, you can't eat here" and we explained we ate somewhere else and we just wanted to get drinks and sit outside. To which she sighed and sat us down. One of us asked her what was the most popular beer and we got some attitude from our waitress and said she didn't drink beer so she couldn't tell us. After a pause but this beer is what people are getting. We were a little thrown off by her attitude, but decided to move on and she came back with our drinks. Never checked on us if we were ok. Mind you the place was not busy at all, maybe at most 7 or 8 people. Another guy was sitting at the bar, to which she seemed very fond of and kept talking to. Eventually we wanted our check so we had to flag her down and she came quickly back to get our check, but my friends and I were in the middle of a conversation we just forgot. It's important to note that it wasn't close to closing time because the other guy inside was also just hanging out. And she was upset that we didn't sign it and she gave us some attitude again. (Thanks) When we were ready to leave I waved to say bye and say thank you and with full eye contact just got an eye roll. When I say she gave us attitude it was like a passive aggressive type of thing. Now, I understand that maybe that night wasn't her night, but I'm just rating this place from the one time I went. All to say I'm not sure about the food, drinks are good. Service not great. 0.5/5 read more

Just noticed this place and had to check it out. There's a nice outside patio but we sat inside. The place has a rustic feel with a bar separated from the dining area with cozy booths. We couldn't help but notice the Edison Lights on the kitchen fixities hanging from the ceiling. There's a large selection of drinks to choose from, beer, wine, etc. I was going to get one of the salads with scallops but decided on the short ribs with mash potatoes. Some of my friends ordered deserts and they were all amazing. I scored a raspberry from the cheese cake. read more

Loved the design of the restaurant and food/drinks were great! Happy hour is definitely worth checking out!

Haven't posting in a while due to Covid. This new restaurant is really a 4.5 but that doesn't exist. The octopus appetizer was delicious well charred with a delicious Romanesco sauce. Both the tagliettelli and gnocchi main course were well cooked and nicely spiced. Chris the waiter was perfectly attentive and fun. Our only compliant was an overly dry chocolate ganache cake. We will be back for sure, highly recommenedr read more

Had a nice birthday dinner with family. Very nice ambiance. I had the asparagus ravioli !! Very good. Seafood dishes were wonderful too!! Friendly service!! Would recommend it to others. read more

Went here for the first time over the weekend and it was pretty mediocre. The food was underwhelming, both my wife and I got things we normally love and agreed they were average if not slightly below. Waiter was a great guy, he gets 2 of the 3 stars for this place. But even so, the service needed a little extra training. We had no place settings when the food came out and so after asking for a fork, the waiter comes to our outdoor table and puts a fork down touching the table. Now some people might not mind this, but my wife is germ conscious and let's be honest, outdoor tables have bugs crawl on them, birds crap on them etc. So she wasnt thrilled he layed the fork on the bare table. We still had no napkins so I requested that, and another server came by with a stack of bar napkins, not the classy cotton napkins that come with place settings. So ya, food not that great and service although friendly, needs a little tightening up. read more

Good menu offering a variety of different items and a fun atmosphere! I love the specialty cocktail menu

This place opened only recently but I've been there three times already. Interesting menu options, but my favorite is the Tagliatelle with crab meat and chopped jalapenos. Sounds a little strange, and I'm not even a fan of spicy food, but that dish is really delicious. Good selection of beers on tap, and a pretty good tequila selection as well. Will be going back again. read more

I used to love going here. Since they changed over all the staff, it's cold and very unwelcoming! I used to come and see my favorite workers. Now they all suck esp the bartender , no personality whatsoever. I used to spend at least 3 hours and about $150 each time. After yesterdays visit I NEVER want to go back! The people you hire matter! The way they treat customers MATTERS! I wouldn't be surprised if they lost a lot of regulars! I would drive 45 minutes. Now it's a waste of time! I'm gonna go where my business is wanted! Would not recommend! Even the food changed! Everything sucked! So disappointed! read more

First time here and we will be back!!! Excellent wait staff and bartenders and the food was amazing - from calamari to short rib to the old fashioned burger. The National and margaritas did not disappoint. Recommend reservations for tables and we will certainly be back. read more

It was a few weeks ago, when my man & I went a date there and we had such good service &superb food. Cool ambience, fun crowd. We definitely will be back. read more

Underwhelming. Not sure how the kitchen pulled this off but every dish we had, from the truffle Mac & cheese, to the wings and truffle fries they managed to minimize flavor. read more

Good stop for dinner on the way to the Berkshires from NYC. The plusses were the food and the service. Excellent young man as a waiter. We waited a little longer than we should have for our food as the kitchen was backed up but the waiter was great on communication and refills on our drinks. We all had salads with a protein for our main course and they were excellent. The only thing we didn't like was that we sat in the back room. The front room was lively with a nice bar and ambiance. The back room was lacking. Maybe it was too bright, maybe the lack of wall decor, maybe too much spacing between tables. Try and sit in the front room if you come. read more

Our waitress Jaqueline N. was great! She was so attentive to our needs and knew everything on the menu. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I really enjoyed the wings, tuna tartare and house burger. If you get a change to go there, ask to sit in Jackie's section and enjoy. read more
