Gavin out here keeping the spirit of Crave alive. It's been a while since I've been back here, and although the menu has changed a bit it's good to see that it's still in good hands. read more

If I could give this 0 stars based on this visit, I would. This used to be one of my favorite places for fries. I'd always get late night pizza fries because they were incredible. I even went as recently as last year and they were amazing. However... My girlfriend and I came back recently, and it was a huge letdown. The fries were soft, undercooked, and so salty that all I could taste was salt. My girlfriend said it was like a grandmother made them at home. Looking at my old Yelp photos compared to what we got now, they are not the same fries. We each ate maybe 10 fries before giving up and leaving to get curly fries from a late night fast food place instead. The ranch also tasted like Italian vinaigrette dressing and not ranch at all. The girls working are always super friendly and sweet, but the guy manager was cold and honestly rude. We also waited forever just to place our order. Like easily 6 minutes in silence standing at the counter being the only ones there. I really hope they can turn things around because the old Crave had some of the best fries in Studio City and I would often show up with 5-10 people at night for the pizza fries and / or the basic fries alone. This visit was incredibly disappointing. Also the forks were so heavy and huge my gf had to stop using it because it was so cumbersome and heavy read more

Each visit has been consistently good here. We've had chicken tenders and fries, salmon platter, crepes, salad, soup. We've enjoyed everything. The service staff are so kind, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Comfortable seating, TVs and music but nothing is overwhelming, very relaxed setting. read more

Honestly, I love how late this place open and sometimes your boy wants to eat at like 12am after a dance class. It's spaciously long they have indoor and outdoor seating as well. There is parking in the little plaza structure. I was so amazed on how extensive the menu is, so many options to choose from. It took a bit but I settled for the chicken tacos and onion rings. The chicken tacos were good and the chicken was well seasoned. The onion rings were the perfect side and cooked beautifully, light, crispy and crunchy. I really need to go back and try their desserts, like look at the pastry display case, all look beautiful. read more

Located in the corner of the Trader Joe's shopping center by Laurel Canyon Bl The set up is cool . There is an outside patio . The food is good, the pesto on my Breakfast Croissant was very tasty. 18 dollars, a little bit much. Service is ok. It's not a big place. Not impressed, Sorry to say. read more

Hands down the best late night eat spot. Quesadilla was surprisingly good, smash burger was juicy, waffles were fluffy, crepe is always delicious, white chocolate cookie was yummy. Parking is tough though. read more

Ambiance is hip easy to kickback alone and enjoy reading being on laptop. Service is sound although not to familiar as I always grab my own. But always very nice. As for the food that is altogether another thing. Not sure what's going on back there in the kitchen but the worst panini I ever had. Paninis are easy to make but one tiny slice of mozzarella even thinner one slice tomato with 2 breads too much oil lots oregano it was an invest I won't do again I used to love crave not sure what happened. read more

Great service, guy with black cap and white shirt is very attentive and so kind. I was trying to find a table for three inside. It was a bit full, and he said he's willing to tell me if its available. He did, and also i ordered the fries. Yum! read more

It's simple that when you're looking for a late night hangout that serves decent coffee, decent pastries and even has a grill to make tasty stuff at 1:30am, you find Crave tucked into the strip mall that houses the Trader Joe's a few doors down and are immediately happy you found this place. So many of the former late night places all closed that you'd think you're stuck with convenience store machines, but here you'll find friendly service and a good variety of eats that just hits the spot. There's plenty of mall parking at night (a little crowded during the day) and they do make lots of stuff from breakfast to desserts.Patio seating available that's dog friendly. Some V/V+ options available. read more

I stopped by there yesterday for pancakes and a affogato after a tough morning. Not sure why I ordered two sweet things but didn't register until I got my order. Anyway, got my pancakes and they were undercooked. The middle was still doughy. I was instantly annoyed and just left. Didn't even bother to touch the affogato or let them know. My morning was already ruined and this pushed me over and I really didn't want to deal with it. But how do you mess up pancakes? read more

Service and staff are always on point and friendly, vibe is super chill to eat in. my favorite thing off their menu is the Chinese chicken salad, sounds basic but it is Top tier !!! read more

Crave Cafe - Studio City aka CC#2 is an extension of Crave Cafe Sherman Oaks aka the OG/original. It's not as spacious, definitely more boutique style restaurant cafe compared to its older sibling location. Located off Ventura Blvd (like CC - Sherman Oak) but near the intersected street of Laurel Canyon - technically at Ventura Blvd & Ventura Place with entrances and exits from Laurel or the Venturas. This hidden spot sit back behind the old Du-Par's (now Sephora), near/in the same lot with Trader Joe's, Mendocino Farms more than a handful of small and local businesses. Needless to say the parking lot stays busy! If you're dining in you get a full experience, however ordering delivery is something to be noted as the prices with free Wi-Fi, entertainment (tvs or music), gender neutral restrooms, customer service and more. It's not as warm (inviting) as the Sherman Oaks location for me. Service is pretty legit and kind, family owned and doing their best, but definitely could use a revamp in a few areas, a little can go a long way. For Delivery/Pickup - I've gotten combo meals without fries or a side that clearly should be apart of the experience.... Not sure why but that's happened more than a few times. That said grateful for the extensive options and veggie/vegan/vegetarian friendly menu - the Vegan Cheese Pizza is a favorite! The tacos and burgers are a more than okay, food can be oil heavy depending on what it is. Things have even out (pricing, quality, etc) a little not changing too much in the last 4 years... No longer 24 hrs but they are open as early as 7AM until 2 AM every single day of the week - with a 3AM extension on Fridays and Saturdays only. read more

My kids will always be down for some breakfast food, so it's nice to come to a place that has really great breakfast and lunch options. Service is usually pretty quick, and I feel like I've been lucky to not catch them at a super busy time. The vibe is really chill. You seat yourself after ordering, and the food comes to your table. They have a few TVs on that show a random assortment of old and new movies. Chocolate chip pancakes were a hit with the kids. I got the grilled chicken crepe which was good, but pretty heavy on the onions for my liking. We ended with a chocolate bread pudding, and I would that that a 100 more times. read more

My wife, son and I were looking for a restaurant near the house and we remembered seeing it and thought we went to a different one once and liked it, so decided to come to this one and try it out. We ordered a Angus Beef Burger, Portobello Mushroom Entre and a Turkey Burger, all of which were very, very good. The serving of the Portobello Mushroom was large and my wife ate about half and took the other half home for the next day. Ana was the lady who took our order and was very nice, talkative, fun and helpful in helping us make a decision as to which food to order. Victor was our server and helpful as well. The restaurant is long and narrow but we had no problem with getting a table for the three of us. It was fairly empty when we got there but seemed to have a few pickup orders as we saw people come in and get their orders. We will definitely come back! read more

I don't think this place gets enough credit. I've lived in Studio City for 5 years and it's been consistently good. I personally think their Chinese chicken salad is better than the overrated Joan's on Third one. They have good service and a rather large menu too. read more

The best crêpes I ever had from luxury chocolate There's fresh strawberries in the creamy chocolate was so good

Place is good because they are open late and have comfortable seating. Customer service is also good. 3 stars is for the food and price. I got a burrito asada ($18) which was mostly rice and tasted average at best. Most Mexican food spots are $12 and load it up properly. I will give them another try and order something else. read more

Tried the grilled chicken panini with buffalo mozzarella. Pretty dry and bland. The chai latte was bomb though When I first walked in, there were 2 employees talking amongst them. After a few minutes one of them finally said hello. The only plus of the visit was the WiFi, was able to get some work done. read more

This place is absolutely amazing! The food was incredible and affordable. I only spent $30 for two people which felt like a steal considering how great it was. And the staff (especially Diana) was so kind and helpful!!! This is only my second time here (the first was day before yesterday) but I can tell I'll be back often! :) (It was half off happy hour starting at 3pm) read more

In the area for work and wanted a quick bite. Menu looked ok and ordered a chicken panini with fries. Sandwich normally comes with salad and paid $3 as an up charge for fries. Bill with beverage and tip came to $30+. Price was not an issue and never will be for me when food and service are both good. My food today was horrible. After just a couple of bites, noticed that the chicken inside was old and clearly reheated. I try to support small businesses whenever I can but this was a big miss today. Way overpriced for what you are serving!! read more

The closest I can get to an adequate description of this cafe is a train station restaurant. You eat, can hang out a bit if you wish, and then go on your way. I didn't get a very welcoming or cozy feeling from it at all. The cashier/waitress was pretty apathetic and almost curt, until I tipped well. The food was about average; Norms comes to mind.The other server that I interacted with was very kind and had much better customer service than the cashier. All in all, a pretty bland experience. It's hard to recreate the chain restaurant effect in a small business(although, I know Crave Cafe has more than one location), but they've done it here. It's Denny's with a few differences. read more

Why is it so hard to make the correct order? It has happened three times. 2 people ordering one item each but still can't get it made right.

If you know why you're coming to Crave, you know why it's amazing. Quality food open 24 hours and great people no matter when you come in.

Great food only bad part they raised the prices a little too much over the past two years and they shortened their hours. But they still have a good selection read more

Eve and Diana are the best! Always warm and welcoming, they make us a pleasure to visit, on top of that, the food is consistently tasty! Thank you. read more

The service was relatively quick after ordering from the counter. The drinks, pepperoni artisan flatbread pizza, and oreo brownie was okay and wasn't mindblower. The only thing was that the Pepperoni Artisan Flatbread Pizza had too much oil after one slice, which can be seen in the photo. read more

Super yummy food! The people here are very sweet and well informed. Very cool and quiet place to study during the weekday

This place is a total rip off. I stopped by today and ordered their quiche that cost $15. The server literally brings me a little quiche they bought at Trader Joe's next door for $4.99. All they did was heat it up and sprinkle some cheese. Very disappointing and I don't appreciate being taken advantage of. What I really wanted to do was return the plate and get my money back but I didn't want to bust a Karen. Anyway, I will never dine here again and I would advise anyone, don't waste your money here. read more

There are two restaurants called Crave in the valley. This one is not affiliated with the Crave Cafe' in Sherman Oaks. Food: Most of the food was served luke warm. Eggs were cold. The pancakes were burnt. Hash Browns were oily. It actually amazed me that the server thought it was ok to serve the pancakes burnt. The restaurant was empty except for us. Service- considering that you have to place your order at the cashier & your food is brought to the table - there was zero follow up with checking back to see if everything was ok or if we needed anything else. Ambiance- cute little place. However, one of the servers decided to use a cleaning spray on the windows which then caused the restaurant to smell like cleaning products. Either clean before you open the doors or afterwards when you're closed. We won't be coming back. read more
