I had spinach dip (excellent!), whiskey sour (modified) - so good! For my entree I had the pork and swapped for mashed potatoes instead of polenta. This was a great blend of flavors together but I had to add salt as it was kind of bland. Service was fine, wasn't overly impressive. It is a cute restaurant, simple, clean. Enjoy! read more

I would do terrible things for their spinach artichoke dip. I'm so devastated that they dropped it from this month's menu. It's absolute perfection! That hint of lemon! I wish the mussels were served in a bowl that kept heat longer. The flavor was on point, just a little lukewarm. Arrabbiata shrimp pasta (no longer on the menu) was **chef's kiss**. Chorizo Caesar salad was an interesting take and the corn was a nice touch. We prefer the Stone Fruit Panzenella that's new to this month. The sweetness was a nice contrast to the heat of the Gambas Al Ajillo, which was a tad on the fishy flavored side for a shrimp dish. The Pork Tenderloin was perfectly cooked. I wish there was something with texture or more flavor also on the plate, maybe two chunks of grilled onion instead of just one. The romanesco had good flavor, but I wish it had been paired with something either spicy or tangy. The pea mash was sweet and not as complimentary to the romanesco as I had hoped. We swiped the meat through the romanesco then in the leftover sauce from the Gambas. On Thursday's, they have a special on Old Fashioned. The ice cube!! Single solid clear perfection. The entire drink is on point, don't sleep on it. The ambiance is everything I need. Plants everywhere and no kids for the perfect date night. Reservations are encouraged and definitely not required. We've been able to get seats quickly as walk-ins. I've been looking for something to replace Temper Grille as our date night spot. Pretty sure I found it! read more

Fantastic food and beverages. The restaurant has a nice. dual and modern vibe. The rotating meal and cocktail and food menu is creative. Our group had two appetizers and four different entrees and everyone thoroughly enjoyed them. They were fresh ingredients prepared expertly. Several had different cocktails and they were terrific. The service was great and the atmosphere and energy just right. This is a great, distinctive owner operated establishment that satisfies your senses and sensibility. read more

Been here many times and consistently a great meal! Has become our go-to restaurant. Highly recommend the Brussels Sprouts appetizer with a Whiskey Sour or Old Fashioned to drink. Excellent!

Was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food here. Expectation were for mediocrity based on the location and appearance of the restaurant, but everything was well very prepared by a talented chef. The ham and pea risotto, chicken and potato gnocchi, and shrimp florentine were all visually appealing and delicious. Service was very solid - we were checked up on often. The inside of the restaurant isn't much to look at, but with food like this in the neighborhood, it really doesn't matter. read more

Great creative cocktail menu. Bartender made me a great drink when I gave her my taste profile. I had one of their specials the pork chop emulate which was excellent, also loved the blue cheese Mac and cheese, great adult version of a classic. read more

We went here one evening with some of our kids bcuz it was a restaurant in Mishawaka we hadn't tried. The food was fine but I wasn't impressed. I'd eat here again but it would not be my first choice. read more

Came here for dinner. Waitress (Rachel) informed us they were out of one cocktail, and out of 2 of the ~6 entrees and was quite rude. After ordering, food took almost one hour to arrive! It wasn't bad, but of course by then we were all starving. We won't be going back. read more

Craft One Half is one of those places where you never have a bad meal. They offer a seasonal menu as well as some staples. Our 2 favorite dishes were both vegetables- hot honey Brussel sprouts and the sriracha dusted baby carrots. We could have stopped with JUST these, but we continued ordering the saffron risotto (perfect for a day with snow flurries) and a side salad to round everything out. The grilled shrimp add-on was perfect topper to our "big salad". We will be excited when they bring back their mock-tail menu because those drinks are incredible (even without the booze)! Head to the bathroom for some original art work on the base boards- our server told us that another server is also an artist who did all those drawings of mushrooms! read more

Love the drinks and the freaking pirogies are amazing, went here for my 5th year anniversary and I'm definitely going to recommend to anyone! read more

So glad we stopped on tonight! Of course when I saw who the chef is, I knew it would be awesome! Table got three apps--Brussels sprouts, bruschetta, and Nashville hot fried cauliflower--all were superb! Hubby got pork tenderloin (I didn't get a picture), I got the risotto and both dishes were awesome! Seasonal cheesecake was peanut butter and chocolate! If you haven't already, make plans to check it out. read more

We had a wonderful dinner at this amazing unique scratch kitchen restaurant downtown in Mishawaka! Lots of very interesting menu choices! We really enjoyed the buffalo cauliflower appetizer! Great craft cocktails. The food and the service was superb! read more

Yeah, new favorite in SB/Mishawaka area. We got the PEI Mussels, delicious, fat mussels, great sauce, and toast. Mains were the beef short rib (outstanding), chicken & potato cnocchi (very tasty), and the seafood feature, which was a very generous portion of center cut salmon, a fat piece of pork belly, all on top of forbidden black rice and some sort of curry sauce. Super super good. The portions were sizeable - we all had maybe 1/3 to 1/2 of our meals left over to take home. For the quality of ingredients, flavor combinations, and overall experience, the value was good! Service was attentive and conversational. Drinks from the bar, very tasty. Also, the sticky toffee puzzle bread (kinda like a bread pudding) was great for dessert. Warming and sweet. Definitely recommend this place. It is 21+, however there's not much on the menu for kids anyway. If you like roselily or houndstooth, or lasalle or cafe navarre, I think you'd be plenty happy here as well! read more

Great food and great drinks! Super friendly staff as well. Couldn't ask for a better restaurant. Will definitely be going back.

Good, drinks, and atmosphere were incredible. Our server Mars went out of his way to take care of us - he made sure he knew my dietary restrictions were accommodated and made sure we all had full glasses and plates with a wonderful and welcoming attitude. read more

Had a fantastic meal and cocktails yesterday here after an event on ND's campus. Vibe at the place was cool, low key. The bartender was awesome, chatting with us and answering questions about ingredients, and providing good suggestions about what to eat or drink. We split the bruschetta, then I had the chicken fried chicken and my girlfriend had the salmon. Huge portions and amazing food! We've already set up a reservation for next time we're going to be in town. read more

So good!!!! I'd been wanting to try this place for awhile and we finally got a chance to stop in. The cocktails were extraordinary, really unique, delicious, and the ingredients were very high quality. We were just wanting a casual bite and both got burgers. These burgers were no joke, they might have been among the best burgers we've ever had. We'll definitely be back. Everyone we interacted with was really friendly and helpful too. Definitely give them a try! read more

The total experience at Craft One Half was excellent. Drinks from the bar were well crafted. The mussels were great, and the fish entree was perfectly done.

We'll go back very soon. read more

I really wanted to like this place and I really hope this was just a bad night for them. We made a reservation and kind of had to chase someone down to check in. Then we were led to a high top--one of two in the restaurant. I'm really short, I hate high tops, but they couldn't have known that ahead of time, so fine. Put in cocktail orders. Waited. They checked again on what I ordered. New guy shows up says he's our server, seems anxious. Takes our appetizer order and reports my cocktail will come but they lost the ticket. A long, long time goes by and I finally receive my cocktail and it's not even the one I ordered. Once we'd been there an hour and witnessed our server chaotically collect many tickets from the floor on the way back to the kitchen, been unable to flag down anyone, and had not even received the bread basket we ordered we decided to settle our bill and leave. It's hard as parents of 4 for us to get out for a date night and we couldn't spend any more time hoping things might work out. They gave us a coupon when we left and the woman, who we'd not seen before the delivery of the bill, scolded us for not requesting a normal table in the notes section of the res form--as if the table is why we were leaving and not the terrible service! The drinks we did receive were nice, though, and the food we saw come out of the kitchen looked good. read more

What a gem! New and inventive drinks made to perfection. Delicious dinner beautifully presented. Great vibes. We will be back! read more
