This is seriously the cutest bistro! Everything on the menu looked amazing and lived up to my expectations based on other people's reviews. I had the BBQ Mac grilled cheese and my husband had the Sunday dinner. Sooooo good. The restaurant itself is super quirky and adorable. Plus the house drinks were really creative! My husband got the cherry mango spritzer and it had popsicles inside it! read more

Cravings Bistro - Salad Near Me - Pleasant Grove, Utah

Dionysus has notably bestowed his blessing upon this fine establishment. Well decorated, the exterior of the establishment was simple and clean. The interior clean and comfortable. Spacious enough for any stalwart gentleman to have his privacy. Yet close enough quarters for the gossiping hens to get there fill. The young lass who served us was delightsome and most amiable. Be it brunch, lunch, or supper, this will satisfy any peckish urge, or end the improper nosies emanating from an abdomen. The bread was the perfect balance between crunchy and soft, salty and savory. The best meal of which I have had the great pleasure of partaking, within the past fortnight. A la prochaine! read more

today my sister in law was at home eating a grilled cheese from this place, it looked good, & since today was national grilled cheese day, we decided to try it out for dinner. i wanted to like this place more than i did. we walked in & there were probably 5 other groups of people before us, 5 minutes went by and the line didn't budge, people started to get annoyed. there were plenty of employees staffed, however they all appeared to be in high school & seemed pretty overwhelmed (the whole place was crowded, probably because other people had the same idea as us with getting grilled cheese for dinner). after a 15 minute wait in line, we ordered and got seated. we both ordered the pizza melt grilled cheese, I got a side of mac n cheese and my husband got a side of the tomato basil soup. after another 15 minute wait, just my mac n cheese came out, it was delicious, definitely the highlight of the meal. another 15 minutes passed and the rest of the food came. my husband didn't like his sandwich at all, and i thought mine was as just alright, really nothing special. I had a few spoonfuls of soup, it was just alright. the verdict- the food was cheap but it was pretty underwhelming. the service was slow (which I already knew coming into the place, since there were a few signs that described a 10-15 minute wait for the grilled cheese) but between ordering, waiting, & eating, we were in there for about an hour. in all honestly, the prices here are the same as a fast food place like chic fil a or taco bell & we've received better food & service with only spending 20 minutes in the restaurant. that being said, i don't think we will come back for round two. read more

Cravings Bistro is a nice local sandwich and soup shop. I've had a few of their grilled cheese sandwiches and they are pretty good. Cravings is definitely a nice gem hidden in the fairly desolate downtown of Pleasant Grove. 6/10 read more

The buttery crust gives way as your teeth sink into confidently cheddar, cheddar cheese.

It's warm presence swirls past your tongue, triggering a small grin. You let out a deep, "Ohh!" as your eyelids flutter in satisfaction.

How does one justify paying almost $9 for a grilled cheese sandwich? When you're at Cravings Bistro! Always up for a culinary adventure, I opted for the Sunday Dinner, manly size. Never had it occurred to me to fuse tender roast beef, creamy mashed potatoes, and stewed carrots in a sandwich, but I truly wish I had. The flavor and texture actually worked very well, and the cheddar kept the whole concoction glued together so it really wasn't messy at all. With a side of tasty gravy, it was everything you'd ever want in a Sunday dinner, any night of the week. read more

I ordered the ABC (Apple Bacon Cheddar) sandwich with tomato soup, and my wife got the Mac and Cheese. The ABC was really good. The soup wasn't my favorite, a little too sweet for me, but was great as a sandwich dip. Then I tasted my wife's Mac and Cheese. Wow! I cook as a hobby and my whole family likes the Mac and Cheese I make, but ironically, I've never liked it much myself because I think it's always bland and lacking in texture. Cravings Mac and Cheese is fantastic, the best I've ever had anywhere. It's flavorful, savory, nicely salty, with a surprisingly pleasant hint of sweet, smoky, and spicy, but not fatty or greasy. The pasta (though not technically macaroni--shells) is cooked just right, giving it just the right amount of bite, with the bacon bits adding a nice little crunch. We couldn't stop eating it. We will definitely be going back for more. read more

Wow! We had the Monte Crisco and Sunday dinner sandwiches with a side of their awesome mac & cheese. This place is more awesome than they realize. Definitely going back again and would highly recommend. read more

Not a great experience. Waited for a very long time for our order; which really shouldn't take long as it's just grilled cheese... we got okay portions, but most of the sandwiches are kind of small (regular sizes). For the price you pay and the long wait it's not worth the money for it. We also took our soups to go and the container lids broke entirely and the soups fell into each other. read more

Fun atmosphere, tasty food, interesting combinations, great daily deals. All in all, I would say this was a happening place and a nice local secret. read more

Food is 8.5 out of 10 Service is 8 out of 10 Atmosphere is 6 out of 10 Great food overall. The grilled cheese are always money. Their turkey cranberry salad are good as well. Never tried desserts. They need more staff. And the place is heated to maybe 60-65 degrees. Always have to dress really warm when we go. But it's worth it :) read more

This cafe is really a hole in the wall and the sandwich I ate was pretty good but the other stuff is so-so. Unfortunately, I didn't go hungry so I didn't order a sandwich. I did have the opportunity to eat some of my husband's gourmet sandwich and I must say that it was delightfully cheesy with a pleasant mix of spinach and sundried tomatoes. I know the menu says there are artichokes in the sandwich but I didn't notice much of it. I absolutely regret not being hungry because I'm sure the other sandwiches were good as well. Now, on to my order. I ordered a small mac and cheese and a side of the soup of the day: Clam chowder. I wasn't a fan of the either. The mac and cheese wasn't cheesy enough. It was kind of tacky, like when you add too much flour to your butter so the roux becomes a bit more doughy. Anyways, it didn't have that essence of mac and CHEESE for me. On the other hand, the clam chowder was strangely sweet. I love clam chowder but I prefer it salty like how they make it San Francisco. Like I said, I wasn't a fan so my husband used it has a sandwich dip instead. Worked out for us. I dinged the rating by a star because the other side dishes were not so great. But I would definitely come back here to try the other sandwiches. read more

Awesome food!!! Always love a grilled cheese, and they serve them here in a lot of different ways. The wait can be long at timescale and tables are rarely clean, but the food overcomes most of the perceived negatives IMO. read more

Love this place. Always great food and surprisingly order accuracy is on point!! They also have these cool frozen drinks that are yummy! read more

Ummm.. wow! Who knew PG had such a good sandwich place? I didn't! But luckily, now I do. We stopped here to calm our hangry selves and it was a great decision. I actually can't even remember what I ordered, just that both our meals were delicious. I will say, the soup I had wasn't great but the sandwiches more than made up for it. read more

The food was so delicious! And their signature soup was AMAZING! Can't wait to go back and try more from their menu. It's best to go at 11 am to avoid a traffic of people. read more

Amazing place!!! I'm already obsessed with the Cravings Cupcake store and the Bistro did not disappoint! Huge portions and everything tasted amazing! I'm so glad these two stores are so close together so I don't have to walk far to get a cupcake after a sandwich! read more

I loved all of the sandwiches so much and every time me and my friends would go out to eat we would go here. My personal favorites are the BLT, ABC, and the tomato pesto. though all of the other sandwiches are delicious. the salads are also amazing and are worth a try, not that anything isn't I am so sad that I am no longer able to visit as often as I would like due to going to college three hours away but I will make sure to visit any time I come back to visit my family read more

I have to share what a great experience I had hosting my son's baptism/birthday party at Cravings! Angie was so great work with and everyone on her staff was so nice and attentive. The food was perfect. Everyone was so happy with everything and I was so happy to not have to cook or clean my house to host a big bunch! Angie really really goes out of her way for her customers. She isn't afraid to hard work and putting in the extra mile. So glad we were able to have such a great time there! Thank you!! read more

The process seems to have been sped up. They offer online ordering now as well. Super happy with this place

I love this place! I keep coming back and I won't stop! I can't get enough of the ABC with a dipper side.

The best adult grilled cheese on the planet. The TBA is the absolute best. The staff is absolute amazing and very friendly.

They accommodated our party of 12 beautifully. There were no mistakes in our huge order, and they let us bring in cupcakes from Cravings Cupcakes around the corner. All the people in our group found something to satisfy our "cravings." We can't wait to go back to try some more yummy stuff. read more

When I call in to place an order to go it's because I don't want to wait in long lines. The fact that I come in and have to wait 20 min to pick up my food is annoying to say the least. I can literally see my food sitting on the counter getting colder by the minute. Just let me pay and leave. read more

Get the ABC & tomato soup!! I dream of this sandwich! It puts Zupas & kneaded to shame!!!

Cheese-a-liscious! The sandwiches are sliced from heaven and the mac-n-cheese satisfies even the mature palate. Dessert is decadent too!

Very friendly waitstaff. Great location. The mussels are fishy, we didn't even finish them. The French onion soup is ok. The salads are pretty good. Good wines, some good beers on tap. read more

I first was introduced to Cravings Bistro through their food truck while walking through a farmers market in Provo. They gave me a free sample and that is when it started. I then visited their location with a small group and we ordered 4 different sandwiches but all got the same result: AMAZING. Anytime I have the time and I'm in the area, I make it a point to stop by and grab one of their delicious sandwiches! I had them cater my wedding because it was so good and they did an awesome job. All of my guests loved it and were completely surprised. Cannot say enough good things about the place. The owner, Angie, makes the visit even more worth it. Great owner and great staff. Fun Fact: I'm lactose intolerant lol, and I still keep coming back to this place. read more

My husband & I love this place! We live only a few blocks away, so we have to limit how often we go. I have tried several of their sandwiches, and they have all been very good. My go to favorite has to be the Grilled Mac & Cheese. It is homemade mac and cheese, topped with cheddar cheese, pot roast, and then bbq sauce. Very delicious! My husband always gets the Monte Cristo. He will not get anything else. It is very good. They do have side options. I have tried to soups, and they have always been great. The side salads are just basic side salads. But their crotons are adorable mini grilled cheeses! We have gotten the giant cookie sundae once, and it was amazing. We rarely stay and eat there. It is extremely echo-y. It is an older wooden building with wooden floors, and exposed wooden rafters. With all wooden furniture. Of course it will be echo-y. There are a handful of tables out front that do offer a pleasant escape from the noise. And yes, it is a longer wait then what people may expect, but it is 100% worth it. read more

I've eaten here twice and loved everything about it! They cater to gluten free which is great because I have a friend that needs accommodations. The atmosphere is adorable and the food is fresh and delicious! Can't wait to go again read more

My pregnant wife called to place an order and apparently the girl taking the order couldn't keep up. She wasn't ordering very fast by way. She had to repeat her order 3 or 4 times. The bad part comes when she ask to put her on a brief hold, where she then talks crap on my wife. She didn't actually hit hold as she just put the phone down, so we could hear everything. When picking up the order my wife was going to say something to her but when she said herr pick-up name she hid. Once we got home we discovered that three of the four sandwiches had one slice of cheese that Wasn't even melted, and the order of fries was all of about four fries and a bunch of hard ends that couldn't be eaten. The fries carton was 10 percent fries 90 percent dipping sauce. Will be a very long time before I are to try this place again. read more

Went here this past weekend. Loved the open space and decor. Didn't love how long the food took. We got a Monte Cristo and it was soooo good. Just as good as Disneyland, maybe a little better! It seemed light and was crispy on the outside, perfectly cooked on inside and the jam tasted fresh and homemade! The Apple Bacon Cheddar has a lot of great flavor but felt a little small, and at least give me a pickle for crying out loud! Most places would give you at least that, if not some French fries too. But if that's my biggest complaint, they're doin fine:) read more

The food here is always SO GOOD it *almost* makes it worth the wait everytime (usually averaging a 30-45 minute wait time). however on my most recent trip, i don't think even the DELICIOUS food could have saved the experience. I understand i came on a Friday at lunch rush so i was expecting a slightly longer wait and didn't mind. However, i wasn't prepared for when everyone in the restaurant was served before me and my guest (including guests that had come in 25-30 minutes after i had ordered) After an hour and a half wait, and watching every guest get served before me, it made me wonder what ticket organization is like in the kitchen. The food runner was a young kid who was very apologetic and kind. Overall, i love Cravings, and love to support local businesses. If you're willing to wait that long for a grilled cheese, definitely recommend this place! however, if you're looking for a quick bite, maybe try somewhere else read more

Best French Dip and Monte Cristo around! They definitely don't short you on their grilled cheese either. My family loves it here.

Came in because of yelp, and enjoyed the majority of my experience. There was a little line when we arrived but it moved quick enough and gave me time to review the menu board. They also have menus you can hold while waiting. Got up to the register and ordered. The cashier wasn't awesome. Im not sure if she doesn't like her job, or if she was judging me because I brought my kid and was wearing my swimsuit. Who knows, but she wasn't pleasant. We waited the 15 min for our sandwich. Now, I did pay attention to the time because they have signs ALL OVER the place stating that the food takes time. I'm not sure if they've had problems before, but it seemed to a bit overkill on the signs. The food arrived. It was delicious. I love that they have the "dipper" size soup. I wanted to try it, and this was perfect. We had the ham and potato Friday soup. By far the best part of lunch. I ordered the Monte Cristo. Fried of course, which cost $2 more. But, it's a monte cristo! It had to be fried. It was good. A bit doughy for my taste, but good. Finally the cookie. It looked delicious in the case when I ordered. It was good. Nothing special. Overall, good place. I've also suggested it to my GF friends. They seem to have many options. read more

I have to give this three stars. I came here with my son, who likes this restaurant. He recommended the tomato soup and sandwiches. I ordered the tomato soup and the grilled mac and cheese sandwich. I thought the soup was okay but it had too much basil. I also ordered the grilled mac and cheese sandwich based on my son's recommendation. The server said it is a popular item, too. I could only eat two bites of the sandwich. I am here visiting from Texas where mac and cheese is considered a staple in some parts. BBQ sauce should never be combined on a sandwich with mac and cheese. My son had the Monte Cristo and liked it. I had a bite and thought that there was too much batter used on the sandwich before they deep fried it. read more

The food here is delicious! I love the mac and cheese, however they do take a long time to have your order ready. Plan ahead when you go because my friend waited an hour for his sandwich and was late for work. read more

This restaurant completely changed the way that I think about grilled cheese sandwiches. I started with their ABC, and now whenever I make a grilled cheese at home, I put apples and bacon on it. I've since tried most of their classics, and they're all equally as amazing. Perhaps the best part is their tomato basil dippers. They're cheap and they're the best tomato soup out there. Their $2 Tuesdays are especially amazing! Plus they have good fries. read more

I know I'm probably giving out 5 star ratings too easily, but what else can I do when a little hole-in-the-wall leaves such an impression on me? I learned about the Cravings Bistro only after visiting the Cravings bakery. Honestly I wasn't very hungry, as I had just eaten lunch an hour or so before, but something drew me inside. It had a very welcoming atmosphere I guess! It took me a while to decide what to get, since there were so many amazing choices, but I eventually settled on getting the Mac N Chz Grilled Sandwich at the recommendation of my partner. I don't know if I've ever had a grilled cheese sandwich quite like it and doubt I ever will again! The slices of bread are buttered and grilled to perfection. Inside was a layer of soft, cheesy macaroni on top of a layer of shredded, barbecue-slathered beef. I'm still in disbelief that such a random combination of food items could come together so beautifully but oh boy did they. I'm considering adding BBQ sauce and beef to any mac and cheese I make moving forward! I haven't had the pleasure of trying any of their other items, but if the Mac N Chz sandwich is any indicator then they know their stuff. It's as their saying goes: these are grilled cheese sandwiches for grown ups! read more

Just OK. I expected it to be better. As the other reviews mention they are super slow. I was the only customer in the place and they had about 10 people working and it took about 20mins+ to get a grilled cheese sandwich. Also non of the women in the kitchen where wearing hairnets and all looked like they needed them. read more
