    Cajun walleye dinner
    Maxine T.

    Came here on a Friday night for dinner and the place is usually always busy during the Friday night fish fry. The parking lot was full but there was still open seating. I got the smothered chicken with steak fries and it was pretty good. The chicken had a blackened char flavor to it and it was topped with bacon, cheese, onions, tomatoes. I also love steak fries, they also had regular fries as an option as well. My bf and his dad both got the walleye dinner - one got it Cajun style and the other got it blackened. They both said that the walleye had great flavor but the seasoning was too much and made it salty and they even had to scrape some of the seasoning off. Service was not the best. When you order a drink you shouldn't have to go up to the bar to grab it yourself. Also asked for a side of ranch and I was almost done with my dinner before it arrived to the table. She did apologize multiple times for the wait and said that she was busy with a big table that just finished up. Overall, I think the food is a hit or miss. The service is okay and the bar is okay if you're looking for a place to go that has bands on the weekends.

    Clean plate club!

    This is the first time I've ever ordered food from Rascal's. I drive by and it's always packed. I went there once for a birthday party, but that is the extent of my relationship with Rascals. Anyway, it's Friday, and I'm looking for beer battered fish. My husband wants a burger. I call a couple of places and pick up time is 1.5 hours. No. I took a chance a called Rascals. Such a pleasant gentleman took my order, answered questions about the menu, said it would be 20 minutes. I arrived about 18 minutes later, and same pleasant gentleman greeted me for my pick up. I mean seriously so nice! Immediately someone brought my food out, no waiting!!! I paid and was out the door. When I opened the carry out boxes, both dinners looked delicious! I was so excited to eat it, I forgot to take pictures! My fish was lightly beer battered and the fish was so light and flaky, choice of potatoes, which included a baked potato, which I chose, because why not?!? He asked if I wanted butter and sour cream. Definitely. Beautifully baked potato. A sweet dinner roll which was fabulous, 2 containers of butter (heart be still!), sour cream, the tartar sauce was a perfect compliment to the fish, and the coleslaw was crunchy, sweet and tangy. Next time I will dine in, because to be honest, fish loses it crispness in a covered box traveling from the restaurant to my house, but even so, I was in the clean plate club!!! Well done Rascals! Compliments to the kitchen staff as well as the waitstaff! And yes, I'm gonna salt that lemon and eat that too!!! Oh yeah! My husbands cheeseburger was a work of art, steak fries were the potato chosen for him. They were gorgeously sprinkled with seasonings and flecks of green. Like a fancy restaurant! He enjoyed it very much!

    Service was very good! I recommend the steak fries because the homemade ones are very thin and easily overcooked.

    Wowza - come here... Award winning bar menu... food was on-point…read more I started with Peach Whisky Sour - shaken properly with egg whites. I thought this might be a tad on the sweet side, but it was not... it was wonderful and very refreshing. I went with the Szechuan Ginger Beef Dip, which came with these great fries. The sandwich itself was decadent. I was literally the 1st person through the door on a Monday night. I sat at the bar and was able to chat with the owner who recently won a couple of big industry cocktail awards. The bartender was super friendly and provided great service. One doesn't necessarily think of Rockford as a culinary destination, but this is a local joint run by a born in raised young woman... Crave is a worthy destination dining spot. But if you're driving by on the interstate it's also worth the stop. The hours are great. The dining room and bar are well appointed and there are even some outside tables. When you're on the road, seek out those local joints. I'm really glad I did.

    I'm stingy with my 5 stars but Crave really deserves it…read more I made reservations at 7pm and we were seated shortly there after. The booth was very comfortable for two. The vibe was fun and energetic. It was upscale without being pretentious. Our server Alyssa was so very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu which I really appreciated. She recommended the sourdough focaccia and ahi poke for appetizers and they did not disappoint! For our entrees we ordered the filet. We ordered it medium but it came out medium rare but I didn't mind. Butter soft. The Thai cod was very flavorful; the heat was perfect, not overbearing. The cocktails were some of the best we have tasted. We ordered the bourbon drink and the psyche. Wow! No wonder the bartender won a prestigious award. The cost for two starters, 4 cocktails and 2 entrees was rather hefty but worth the money IMHO... our celebration was perfect... so thanks, Crave!

Everything our group ordered was prepared well and served hot. The burgers were cooked exactly as requested and were absolutely delicious. I chose the grilled chicken with vegetables instead of fries--a healthier option--and it was tender, flavorful, and satisfying. One person in our party ordered the sturgeon special and couldn't stop talking about how delicious it was. Then came the dessert tray...wow! There were so many tempting choices that it was hard to decide. I had the berry layered cake, which was moist, flavorful, and the perfect finish to the meal. Another person chose the cheesecake, and the generous slice was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Great food, generous portions, outstanding desserts, and exceptional service from Julia made this a great evening. We look forward to coming back!

The buns were toasted which made mine dry. The sandwich itself was dry throughout. It had some kind of sauce sparingly on both sides of the burger. It wasn't served with ketchup, which is fine, if there is something to make it moist enough. Maybe if the sandwich had had more than one tomato. I asked for fruit instead of the fries and the fruit was wonderful - strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, cantaloupe, pineapple. Another person had a lovely salad, which I didn't catch the name of, but I'm sure the unique part of it was that it had beets on top. The final person had the Nashville Fried Chicken Sandwich. He felt the sandwich was left in the fryer a little too long. Jamie H was our waiter and he was very attentive. He came and filled our drinks before they were even empty. Made sure we were happy with everything. Big problem!!! All they had left for dessert, at lunchtime, was 3 different sorbets. Very disappointing!!!

    Such an amazing experience…read more Starting off with the restaurant itself, such a beautifully curated spot that is unlike anything rockford has to offer. Every detail a work of art. We really enjoy the bar area and its ambiance but hope to also experience the dining room as well. We started off with the Dip of the day which was a Miso Ranch dip served with fresh made tortilla chips. This was phenomenal and my only complaint is there wasn't more! We also both ordered a drink off of their happy hour menu. I ordered the old Fashioned and my wife ordered their margarita. Both were excellent. I also ordered the VIEUX CARRÉ based on our Server's recommendation and thoroughly enjoyed that. Such knowledgeable staff makes a big difference. For our main course, I got their Mushroom Pot Pie and my wife ordered the Ora King Salmon. Both dishes blew us away. Neither of us expected to be so full after our meals, their serving sizes were very generous! I wanted to highlight the mushroom pot pie, as a vegetarian, Fine dining usually does not cater to vegetarians. So having options at a place this nice was such a welcomed surprise. The greens included with the Pot Pie really stole the show, The most perfectly cooked and seasoned greens I have ever had. Chef Nick Risseeuw came over and checked on how we were doing and after hearing me rave about his pot pie offered two of his desserts on the house. We got a pistachio orange dessert and a Malt ball ice cream that was his interpretation of whopper candy as an ice cream. Both were DIVINE! Thank you again Nick for your generosity, it was a perfect way to end a perfect meal. I also wanted to highlight the staff as they played an essential role in our unbelievable experience. Everyone was so friendly, attentive, and prompt. We will definitely return soon and cannot wait to see what is in store for their upcoming menu
