Lolo A.

We were greeted upon entry and the restaurant itself wasn't busy. There's a self-service kiosk, but there was also an employee to assist with any questions we had. The pork belly bowl was not a set price. Each item chosen had a cost associated with it. I thought the fried egg would have a runny yolk, but it was more of a firm consistency. The pork was pretty tasty, but a very small portion. Overall, not worth it for the price paid. The chicken burger wasn't the best. Great ambiance though! Yelp limits how many photos are posted with my review, but there should be 15 photos.

I got the fried wings. They were very crispy and crunchy which is always a good thing. However, they lacked seasoning. I would definitely try them. They have flavor options.

This was my first time trying this restaurant, and unfortunately it will be my last. The chicken drumsticks I received tasted old and not fresh, which was very disappointing. Quality like this is concerning, especially for a first impression. I wouldn't recommend ordering based on my experience.

Popped into this place impromptu to see what it was all about. It's super cute inside with plenty of comfortable seating. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Ordering can be done thru a self serve kiosk. I wish I was more hungry but will be back. For this first time I tried the hand breaded dirty wings. The crispness and texture were perfection and the chicken was moist. It was a tad greasy but favorable. Not too spicy but absolutely benefited from the blue cheese sauce on the side. I also tried the chicken empanada. It was nice size with a good amount of tasty filling. Their drink menu is extensive (didn't try anything this time). I'll definitely go back as I want to try their popular fried chick and some other things. Give this local small business a shot!

My husband and I were looking for a healthy lunch option one day and stumbled upon this place. Their drink menu is quite expansive as is their food menu. The atmosphere was kind of quirky and fun however all the tables that were electronic game tables had reserved tags on them and/or weren't powered on at all. Their food and drink menu as I mentioned is quite expansive and can be a little bit intimidating; however, we settled on two of their bowls (Bang bang shrimp bowl and Lamb fire bowl) and although they were quite tasty, the portion size was definitely lacking! At $14 and $14.50 apiece, their bowls definitely should've been a lot fuller. At those prices, we shouldn't be leaving the restaurant still hungry and unfortunately, that was the case. We also tried the dirty latte with Boba, which I really enjoyed. Would love to say that we will be back but unfortunately, due to the small portion size I don't think we will.

Scrumptious, absolutely The are conveniently located in Southlake, just near 114. The are so very welcoming and hospitable. The place has charm and ambience abounding. They truly care to make a comfortable space to commune over a lovely meal that satisfies every time. Family and friend oriented, they even have a game section if one would like to sit for a spell and play a friendly game together. The have beer, cocktails, boba and milk teas as well as a variety of pan-Asian cuisine. Kind of like FF however NOT a CHAIN restaurant; no-no, they are a small business that needs support.

The first thing I noticed was the place was totally empty. Not even a worker in sight. So I used the ordering machine. Which ended asking for a tip despite me doing my own order. I did like the drink I ordered. Especially the option to choose the amount of sweetness. I ordered six Korean chicken drumsticks which were a total let down. Requested extra crispy. What I got was burnt. To the point that the ends were black and broke off while holding them. The coating was hard and inedible and had to be removed. One drumstick was so small and burned, even that couldn't save it. For the out of the way location, it was surprisingly disappointing. read more

Saw a "new" named place in Southlake but it is actually renamed from Boba Chick a month or so. Staff recommended the chick wings, i order 6 piece garlic parm wings and wife order the popcorn chicken bowl with egg. Wings were very good, large portions dripping in sauce which I liked. I was almost finished before my wife's order came out. The reason for the quite long wait, the popcorn chicken was way over cooked. Basically the popcorn chicken was probably cooked as long or longer than the huge wings. While the wings were very crispy and crunchy even with the large amount of sauce, the popcorn chicken was tuff and no flavor. read more

All tables were taken, so I sat at the bar. The bartenders were fast, efficient, and very friendly. They got my order wrong, but I don't care. Their friendliness made me not care. 1 Star. Food - Look, if you're here, you're not here for the food. I started with the Steak Frites. The steak was super tender but lacked seasoning. The shoestring fries were awesome and made the perfect pairing to the steak. I ordered the Brisket Sliders but ended up with Wagyu Sliders. I didn't mind because our bartenders were so friendly, but the sliders were just ok. Remember, this place is not known for the food. 1/2 Star. Will I Return? - Yes.

This is what I would return for, and bring friends to tet before we end up at another activity.

Returning to take drink orders, a margarita was ordered as was a glass of Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc. Drinks were quickly served. Water was never allowed to become empty. Alex asked if we had ever been to Craftway, we informed him this was our first visit. His ask "any allergies?" to which we said no. He disappeared, returning with an appetizer sampling plate with three items - the Reuben egg rolls, crab stuffed mushrooms, and blue cheese chips. All were fantastic! Three entrees ordered, the Chicken & Fig sandwich, Chicken Milanese and the Cajun pasta with Chicken. Food arrived; each entree was fantastic. Cooked to perfection, flavors were amazing. Dessert, shared, was a bread pudding with ice cream, a perfect finish. Alex never let beverages become empty, delivered superb service. The Chef circulated the room checking on satisfaction and chatting with patrons. Giving Craftway Kitchen a very well deserved 5-star rating. The staff did everything right! Departing, we talked about what we will order next time. We will be back to Craftway Kitchen!

Calabrese

Just celebrated my second year anniversary. We are Italian and live not too far from the…read morerestaurant. On special occasions we want a nice larger menu with "hard to execute" Italian dishes. The bistro's in town are fun and casual but every once in a while you need something a little bit more gastronomically complex. They were very accommodating to my two littles. Our server was very busy but on point. They had a great wine bottle special. 50% off any bottle under $199. Salad was tasty and fresh. Had got Cacio E Pepe as a second dish before our entrées. Which I highly recommend doing. That's not an easy dish to do, but they executed it perfectly. Nice thick noodles similar to the Pici and Bigoli , you see in Tuscany. They also had a pretty sizable prime New York strip for under $70 which is pretty impressive. Most restaurants would've charged 85 or more for that steak. It was cooked perfectly. Char medium rare. Everything was fantastic. They even made us a complementary dessert with happy anniversary message. Highly recommend.

Came to Calabrese for a group dinner celebration of 10. It was my first time here, and the…read morerestaurant is beautiful. My cocktail was rose-based and refreshing. We started off with bruschetta and focaccia, which I didn't care for, but the complimentary bread and herb butter were so good. For mains, I shared the special ravioli with burrata, and that was good. I found the prices to be on the higher end. Our server was attentive and sweet. The place is nice for a date night or a group dinner in their private room.
