I don't know if I'm ordering the wrong thing or what, but they always almost hit the mark with me when it comes to the food. I got the steak and double eggs, no potatoes. The steak wasn't cooked medium for sure, had no seasoning, only the taste of the grill. Like char. The eggs were so pretty, I could taste the butter, but I'm pretty sure they were powered. The best thing on the plate was the bacon. During my other visits, I will say the drinks didn't disappoint. I believe it was the Frozen Flight. Also, please get the pineapple martini! Oh and I must say, every waitress that has served us, is so pleasant, so nice, very accommodating and welcoming. Just happy all around. read more

Really good food and good service. Definitely plan to come back again. Second time I have gotten food from here.

It was our first time eating at this establishment. They have a recent health score of 92 from the Plano Health Dept. We decided to stop by there on Saturday around 5:15. The eatery was quite busy. They also have a patio for those who wish to dine outside. We were seated inside within 5 minutes. We were greeted by a cheerful server named Logan. Our best description of this restaurant decor is it is an upscale Chili's. We wanted a light meal, so we ordered Cajun pasta, spinach dip, crab stuffed mushrooms and a pineapple martini. Overall, the food was good. The food is pricey for what is offered on the menu. I would classify the food as average in comparison to the same type of offerings with area competing restaurants. The service from the server was very good. Personally, I like my nearby Chili's better. read more

Craftway kitchen is becoming one of my favorite restaurants in the DFW area. I've been 3 times so far and the food has been consistently amazing each time! Everything is well seasoned, great portions, and delicious. I love the variety of food they offer. If you're a fan of bread pudding, this is the place for you. Easily the best bread pudding I've had at a restaurant! As far the restaurant itself, I haven't sat inside yet so my opinion is solely based on the patio. Everything is clean, the ambiance is nice and casual. The service is fine. The waiters aren't super attentive, there were times I've had to ask for silverware, water refills, etc. However, I've had worse service at other establishments so I wouldn't let that deter me from returning. The food is always out fast and it speaks for itself. read more

Food was fantastic and service was fast and personable. Can't wait to go again. Pork chops and red fish were winners

Waited a long time for service and the waiter was plain rude, water everywhere because of the storm. I ordered eggs Benedict because I asked for over hard eggs they came out fried. sent them back brought out poached eggs cold sent them back finally got a manager who made my order correctly, never had an issue before have been many times before. Will go back I like the restaurant and food. They did apologize and made it right. read more

Our first time here and we were so impressed by the food. Everything was reasonably priced and the food was delicious. Ambiance: Casual TVs at the bar for sports Medium sized dining area. Good for groups up to 8 Appetizers: 1) Candied Bacon 2) French Onion Soup (to split) Entrees 1) Blackened Redfish with a side of Brussels sprouts 2) Chimmichurri Steak with a bed of fluffy of lime rice For everything we ordered, we were out of there for about ~$100 (minus tips). Our server was super sweet and had the kitchen split the French Onion soup into 2 bowls for us! Very unexpected, but appreciated! The candied bacon is definitely something you do not want to miss. Each bacon was caramelized to perfection. The chimmichuri steak was very tender! I would order it again. The blackened redfish was really good as well! read more

What can we say, like the other location, this place is great - great food, service, value, vibe. Plus point: No low-class tip suggestions with the tax included like so many places do, and the servers are pros, they do not hover when signing the bill and tip. Good on ya. The only problem is we like it too much and the menu is kind of small after as many visits as we've made there, and we've been through the whole menu. It's ok because we like pretty much everything on it. Keep up the great work. read more

This is probably one of my new favorite restaurants in the area. The cocktails are great, the service is great, it was fairly crowded for a Tuesday evening when I went but everyone seemed to be enjoying the space, the food is phenomenal. At my table we ordered a little bit of everything from the chicken parm dip (dipping the sandwich into tomato soup is just genius), fish and chips, and I had the blackened shrimp pasta. The shrimp were cooked perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better dinner. I have been back a few times since I first went with my friends and I've always had a good time. read more

First time trying this place and it's so delicious. It did not disappoint. Really please with my happy hour frozen Paloma. The food was just as flavorful and delicious. The Cajun pasta chicken has so much flavor, the pasta was perfectly creamy and the bell peppers were perfectly cooked - not wilted at all, still had a nice crunch. The French dip sandwich was also a great choice and they did not skimp on the meat. 10/10 would come here again! Service is friendly and attentive. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Great place for lunch, dinner, or a casual date. read more

2nd time there... Good drinks but slow service from the bar. BOTH times! Morgan was a great server but the food sub par this last time. BBQ ribs dry and burnt, tomato soup too much basil... All u taste is basil. Chicken parmesan not Parmesan! ... Dry and had a pesto type sauce. Ambiance is great but Not worth the $200 for 3 adults and a childl! The Fish & chips was good but how do you screw that up? Terrible long Island ice tea. Great espresso martini. read more

Everything was amazing! Immediately got a table on a friday night - it was a little cool outside and they had the heaters going and music playing but not too loud. service was great and food was so yummy!! they even gave us a little treat since it was our first time visiting craftway! we will definitely be back!! read more

Now I know why everyone keeps talking about and recommending Craftway Kitchen! I met a friend here for lunch. There's not a lunch specific menu, but I didn't care because there were plenty of options. In fact, the menu reminded me of what you'd see on offer at any clubby business lunch place in a downtown metropolitan area. I chose the ahi tuna bowl. You only have to glimpse at the photo to know how impressive it was. Let me tell you it was delicious also. I had tea, my friend had a frozen old fashioned (which I would have loved to try but alas one of us - me - had to go back to the office!) I'm definitely coming back and bringing my husband with me next time. read more

1st time here. The place is packed so the locals like it. The atmosphere is good and hopping I ordered the grilled salmon sandwich with grilled asparagus. It was good. I would definitely order it again. I ate at the bar as there were no other seats available. My server/bartender was Peter and he was amazing. I do recommend trying this out. BTW this was lunch. read more

To the unrefined palate (ie my 7 year old), this was not a hit. Too much flavor in the asparagus and mashed potatoes! To the adults, huge hit! We're getting a babysitter next time. Service (Isabel) was also great. Frozen flight, french dip, chicken fingers and spinach dip were awesome. read more

We were shocked by this place. The pictures don't do justice to the wonderful selection of quality foods. The drinks were just as tasty as the dinner. I had the Cajun pasta with Chicken and Shrimp. My wife enjoyed the blackened shrimp bowl. The biggest treat was the Spinach Artichoke dip. Fantastic! read more

Craftway is my absolute favorite non-fine-dining restaurant in the area. It's my go-to recommendation any time someone is looking for a good place to eat. I've tried half of the menu and I can honestly say that I've never had a dud. I appreciate that they keep adding new items from time to time to always give me a fresh reason to go back. My only complaint is that it's not closer to my house! My favorite appetizer is probably the calamari, but I also love the spinach dip and we frequently order the blue cheese chips. Most of their appetizers can be done in half sizes too! In case nobody wants to split one with you, ask your waiter for a half size. My go-to order is the cajun shrimp pasta. It's literally perfect. Lots of spice and flavor, unlike the ones you've probably tried before. I also make it a point to come on Mondays for Meatloaf monday (with extra gravy) because that dish is SO GOOD. The french dip is excellent, as are all of the sides we've tried. Mac n Cheese, perfectly seasoned steak fries (they also have skinny), mashed potatoes, you really can't go wrong. Craftway truly has something for everyone on the menu. I cannot think of another restaurant that I've recommended more than Craftway kitchen. It's a must, if you're in the area. Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Price: 4/5 read more

Everything was great. Server Caleb was attentive and promptly. Food order was excellent- I ordered crab cake with Brussels sprouts, hubby ordered chicken Milanese. Mine couldn't have been tastier, definitely a favorite for me. Hubbys was sa little crispier chicken than preferred but he ate every morsel. If we're back in the area I'll definitely return here. Indoor ambience was comfortable, outdoor patio was really beautiful- looked amazing with flowers and awning. read more

Craftway used to be exceptional. I was genuinely impressed by both the service and the food. Even the mediocre indoor atmosphere felt forgivable because everything else was top notch. Now, the experience feels average at best. The food is no longer memorable, just "pretty good" or "decent." Service remains excellent, but that's the only thing that hasn't slipped. The floors inside were so dirty they were actually slippery. It felt strange and unsafe. My fish was overcooked. The Brussels sprouts were overwhelmed by an overly sweet maple glaze. My son's French fries tasted stale, like they'd been sitting under a heat lamp all afternoon. Even the mac and cheese, once addictive, tasted off. Different, and not in a good way. Craftway is still a decent spot, but it's no longer one I recommend or think of often. Maybe the packed dining room means others don't notice the decline, or they never experienced how good it used to be. read more

My daughter and I came in for brunch after church one day and I just have to say that you can taste the love in their food and it feels so homey and welcoming :). The food was great and they were extra sweet and attentive to my kiddo read more

We always enjoy our meals at Craftway Kitchen. My favorite is the salmon BLT. I also love starting the evening with a frozen Paloma.

Food was decent and the wait staff was friendly. Ambiance was that of a small bistro and it was an open floor plan in the dining room next to a large bar. Lots of people moving around though which did feel crowded at times. They also offer patio seating and the area is upscale. I got the fish and chips and my wife got the French dip and we split both meals between us. I thought the sandwich was better and my wife felt both were greasy and didn't enjoy the food as much. Prices were higher than I expected and I spent more than $50 for lunch which to me was too high. I am not sure if we will be back but I am glad we tried it. read more

Went there for our first time on a Saturday night, it was busy but was able to get a seat quickly. Thought about sitting on patio due to the noise but there was a loud group of women on the patio so chose inside. Fortunately they turned the music down shortly after getting settled. The waitress,Laila was excellent, was very pleasant and helpful with suggestions. She took great care of us. The spinach dip was some of the best I've ever had. We had the French onion soup and the mushroom soup, both were great. Was nice getting the inion soup and not getting a sodium overload. The cocktail was great. Got the steak frites, but it came out Luke warm and had absolutely zero seasoning. Also got the trout, it was also lukewarm and no real seasoning. We both agreed based on everything else that we will return and give another shot. read more

Stopped in with the girlfriend after discovering that Bread Winner's hours were not what were posted. Ordered the fried asparagus for appetizer, had the salmon salad, she had the pastrami Rueben and tomato soup. There was a bit of a mix up around who the server would be, no biggie, it was his second day. But it did take a fair amount of time for the right server to arrive and for us to get waters. The asparagus was really good, but almost half of it was the tough part of the asparagus and nearly inedible. Her soup was good, with a bright citrus taste to it. My salmon salad was really good, though the salmon flavor was a bit dominated by the taste of burnt wood. Her Rueben was incredibly bland, the Russian dressing had no zing, the sauerkraut was flavorless, and the pastrami tasted more like a smoked brisket than a proper pastrami. It's a shame because a Rueben is a TON of calories so if you are going to eat one, you want to enjoy it. The real standout though was... the fries? They had a perfect, crisp outside with a soft inside, burying with potato taste, minimal grease, and a decent amount of salt (though my personal preference is more salt). As I like to say, "price sets expectations" and this meal was rather pricey by the standards of the other meals I have been eating in the area. And what we got just did not live up to those expectations. Asparagus could have been great if they gave us 6 or 8 stalks and chopped off the tough half. The Rueben - which was cooked perfectly - needed someone who has been to New York City, Chicago, or Montreal to smarten them up on what brand of pastrami to buy and how to make a great Russian (or thousand island) dressing. If I am paying near $20 for a sandwich and it is a 1,500 calorie event before we even look at the appetizer or side, it needs to be the platonic ideal of a sandwich, not the shadow puppet on the cave wall.

Hands down, this restaurant is superb! I ate here twice. The food, customer service, and atmosphere were consistent. The chicken and fig sandwich is very delicious! The combination of flavors is unique and flavorful. The beef wellington is delicious. I don't know if it can light a match to Gordon Ramsey's, because I haven't tried his. My mother ate the chicken and waffle. She said she enjoyed it. I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

I've fallen in love - with a french onion soup. OMG guys- it's the best one I've had in the area. It comes out beautiful with this Channing Tatum hotness of a crust and the soup itself - let's just say if it were between this soup and a night with Chris Evans....ok....I'd take the night with Chris Evans and eat the soup in bed with Chris. It's the ultimate dream. It's cheesy and delicious and on a scale of Steve Buscemi to Hugh Jackman - Wolverine takes this one. Enjoy! read more

It wasn't as good as I remembered. It's been a couple of years since my last visit. The service was solid but the noise inside was on the loud side. The candied bacon was ok - it was incredible in the past. Both steak were charred and really dry. Overcooked based on what was requested. The steaks reminded me of how my dad tried to cook steaks when I was a kid - nice attempt but there are reasons why he didn't become a chef. Two of us experienced significant stomach issues after dining. Maybe some type of cross contamination? I went because of the great past memories. But after this experience I don't think I'll go there again. Just no longer the exceptional food it once served. read more

I've been to the Frisch location before, and honestly this is my FAVORITE restaurant in the DFW area. Both locations are far from my unfortunately , but if I'm headed up north this place is a MUST! Food: Where do I start? Let me start with my go to Salmon BLT, side of fries, and jalapeño ranch! BOMB. Literally has me in a chokehold. The fish sandwich is also a banger, and the Brussel sprouts yummmmm! Their desserts are also a bob, go for the bread pudding! Drink: Cocktails are delicious! They even refresh the martini glasses to make sure your drink stays chilled. I am a huge fan of their frozen old fashioned, the blackberry drink, and pineapple martini ! Service: The BEST! You know when you go somewhere and you can just tell everyone loves their job? Th service is just so genuine. I went to this location twice and once again customer service was top notch! Go ahead and pull up! read more

My date found this place on a search for a casual yet nice date night. Though we had a reservation we decided to sit at the bar. Lauren and Peter were AMAZING! Always there if something was needed yet never felt intrusive. Their personalities were very different yet balanced each other perfectly. We were definitely treated like we had been there a million times yet at the same time letting us know the ins and outs of the menu and so forth. Always were there when needed yet never feeling like they were there at all. You HAVE to get the French onion soup! We have traveled the world and agreed it was the best we ever had. Truly Devine. My salmon was cooked perfectly and they let me exchange the asparagus for potatoes without question. I didn't get a bite of the Cobb salad it looked amazing and I was told it was fabulous. Definitely a place we will be back to over and over again! Thank Peter, Lauren and the kitchen staff for giving us a great night out in a time we're good service is hard to find. Oh and the refresh of a chilled glass for my martini was a touch I didn't expect but loved! read more

Ambiance: We sat inside and it was nice and cool. They also have outdoor seating with fans in case you want to go thar route Service: As I wanted for my friend to arrive, it took a little while for the waitress to come over but I ordered a water, the frose' and the beignets. But I received all this before my glass of water which was odd but ok. Now for the reason you're all here...the food! Beignets: 3/10 I could smell them as soon as they were sat down and thought I was in for a treat, but I was so disappointed. I was expecting soft, fluffy beignets that melt in your mouth but I was met with a crispy, crunchy type texture...almost like they were over cooked. The powdered sugar is why it even gets 3 stars. Frose': 6/10 Taste wise it was okay wish there was a little more vodka and it came in a different glass but it was cute. French toast: 5/10 It was very over cooked - so much so that I had to eat around it for the most part. I didn't taste much flavor. The eggs were okay...I'd give them a 6 but 2 eggs for $4 is crazy! But that's inflation for you. Bread pudding: 6/10 Ordered to go but I like that it came with ice cream but it melted by the time I got home...no fault of the restaurant; that's the Texas heat for you! But it tasted okay...I'd recommend adding some caramel sauce to it Cheeseburger and fries: 7/10 Fries were the fav of the meal and the burger was really good but could've used more seasoning. read more
