    Chicken Bowl
    Michelle J.

    Crave Mediterranean is in the shopping center on Republic Rd directly across from Mama Jean's Natural Grocery. The dining area has plenty of tables as well as booths. We were a party of 3. At our table we all ordered bowls. Lamb bowl. Chicken bowl. Shawarma Chicken bowl. Two of us selected the tzatziki sauce and my mom tried the tahini sauce. My mom loved the food but the sauces were not to her liking. Me and my sister most definitely enjoyed both. The food was magnificent. I ordered the strawberry lemonade and it is huge. It's yummy and HUGE. If you haven't been yet I definitely recommend Crave, it's so good. The meal was filling so my mom ordered a yummy baklava slice to go.

    Updating with more photos. Still a favorite for us! Always great service, delicious food, and a calm relaxing dining environment.

    Lemonade to go!

    Great spot. Service was stellar and so was food. I tried the mint lemonade which came out in an Okterfest-sized stein. It was light on the mint so it was perfect for me. You can get the sandwiches as a wrap so I opted for the hummus and falafel one. It was most excellent. The wrap also had seasoned fries in it. !! The lunch entrees also come with soup or salad. I loved the dressing on the salad. I got a side of saffron rice with my wrap which was delicious. I have never tried halva so I ordered one for dessert. It was delicious but super rich. It was drizzled with chocolate sauce. Having not ever tried it before, I would describe it as a crumbly sesame fudge. It was great but I only could finish half of it. The server asked if I wanted a refill (one is free on the lemonades) and I asked if I could get it to go. He brought out a quart sized food-service container and had poked a hole in the lid for a straw. So sweet but this drink was too big to fit into my cup holders. Still, it's the thought that counts. I would totally go here again. I saw a ton of stuff I wanted to try.

    This was my first time here. I came when I was absolutely starving. I ordered the falafel sandwich and was surprised as to just how large it was! It was also hard to tell what all was in it because it was slathered with hummus on top. This was a ton of food but it was really good!

    Chicken shawarma sandwich! Soooo good!! Their food is incredible!

    I had their chicken shawarma sandwich and my fiancé had the Philly gyro sandwich and both were incredible. The lentil soup was great also. YUMMY

    I said we'd go back, and we did! The salads were just as fresh as last time. This time, we got the tzatziki appetizer because we loved the tzatziki that came with it food when we were here last. My son had the beef shawarma wrap and said every bite just melted in his mouth. I wanted the tikka kabob wrap, but accidentally ordered the platter - which was also delicious! Our waiter, Elijah was awesome. We'll be back again next month to try something new. I really want to try the falafel and hummus!

    My wife and I absolutely love Crave! My wife has a few serious food allergies and is vegetarian...so she's never comfortable going out to most places because of that. But, we know some of the folks at Crave and the attention to detail is wonderful and delicious! If you like gyros, hummus, pita bread, falafel, etc., it is all very tasty here! Thank you all for your hospitality and the great food!

    This place is delicious. We had the flaming cheese for an appetizer and it was very flavorful. The food a service was excellent.

    Best Mediterranean food in town, hands down. Amazing addition to the cuisine in Springfield. A must try.

    Decent service. Good selection. Food was okay. Prices for lunch were high, suggest a more cost effective lunch menu be added.

    Stayed in Branson, but went to Springfield for a graduation. The graduate recommended FD's. This is…read morethe only restaurant that I would drive from Branson to Springfield to eat. Gracey and Bruce were our servers. Both were great. Gracey immediately removed trash ( which is a rarity now days). The service reminded me of a cruise vacation from several decades ago. My wife and I shared the trio ( salmon, shrimp and chicken tenders) plus baked potato, steamed broccoli and a salad. Our bill was a bit over $20 plus tip. The only thing I wish we would have changed is we would double up the shrimp instead of the chicken. 3 at our table raved at the sirloin. My father in law said his baby back rips were wonderful. Everyone raved at the food and the service. My only warning is get there early--- don't expect to walk to table at noon. We got there when it opened at 11am and they accommodated our group of 8 immediately. My brother in law drove back for a return trip a couple days later ( I had to go home). My opinion is since Covid most places don't do good service anymore. FD's does.

    What a great place to eat! We are new to the area and were looking for a good place for seafood…read more Found FD's Grillhouse and boy, were we in luck! I had the fish & chips and they were amazing! My wife went with grilled shrimp, and she loved them (I also had to steal one). The restaurant was ultra chic, clean lines and lots of glass to bring in light. Very cool. Our waitress was excellent and attentive. And finally, the price was really reasonable. Great dining experience, and if I could rate it higher, I would!
