This was my second visit to Crave Mediterranean Cafe on Republic Road…read more Overall, it's a solid fast-casual experience -- not fine dining, but that's clearly not what they're aiming for. We spent about $40 for two people and had table service, which was a nice touch. Our waitress was very friendly and had a great attitude, though it seemed like she might have been having an off night as there were a few small mistakes along the way. The food was good across the board -- nothing bad at all, just not especially memorable. The space itself is a plus: larger dining room, comfortable seating, and a nice place to sit and enjoy a meal. If you're comparing Mediterranean options in Springfield, I'd probably give the edge on food to Greek Belly, but Crave offers a more spacious and relaxed dine-in atmosphere. Overall, a good, reliable option -- especially if you value the setting as much as the food.

Fresh ingredients. Really great tarragon chicken salad. My husband liked his croque. When we're back in town we'll stop by again!

It may not be a bastion of gourmet ingenuity, but Pickleman's deserves a lot better than a 2.5 star…read moreaverage just because they bungled a few delivery orders. What evidence do I have to support my contention? I'm glad you asked. Exhibit A, and without question the restaurant's Pièce De Résistance, is the lentil chili. Now, I know what you're thinking - chili is supposed to contain meat and only a communist would proffer such a vaunted title on a vegan dish. Right? I used to think the same way, but the delicious balance of chili seasoning and fearless heat of Pickleman's take on this classic makes it one of my go-to late night dishes when I'm hanging out downtown. Exhibit B is composed of the salad selection, which features options to suit many tastes, all of which contain genuinely fresh vegetables in addition to their specific peculiarities. That may seem like a simple thing, but seasoned salad eaters know it can be rare, indeed. It may seem weird to lead off a review of a sandwich and pizza place with two options that are neither, but I've honestly never had any reason to venture beyond that side of the menu because they're both so delicious. And that they do those things so well is more than enough reason for me to juice their rating, whatever failings other reviewers have experienced notwithstanding.

The sandwich is regularly $12.49 and the fries are an additional $1.77. This place understands good food at a reasonable price! I hope to come back.

Burger review Ok Boomer 9.7/10 -It's called the OK boomer, but it's an Oklahoma Smashburger. So it's two thin smashed patties with super thin shaved onions smashed directly into the patty, and I think they just put a whole pile of them on top, which I absolutely loved. I mean, this is truly a well-crafted burger and definitely on my list of new fave burgers. Also, my pics aren't the best, but when I tell y'all don't let them fool ya, this was a banger of a burger. Only thing I'd change is no pickles , but that's on me lol... oh yeah the housemade fries were crazy good. Petty Eddie Approved #burgers #explore

If you're anywhere near Springfield, Missouri, you have to check out Big Dog Deli. And honestly, if…read moreyou're not nearby, it's still worth the drive or a flight. Chef John and Casey are incredible. I had their gourmet hot dogs and the Great Dane sandwich, and the flavors were creative, bold, and perfectly balanced. Chef John clearly has a vast knowledge of blending flavors and crafting truly unique sauces you simply won't find on any grocery store shelf. The entire concept is so fun. From the clever dog-themed sandwich names to the fun logo and even their merchandise, you can tell this place was built with passion and creativity by true dog lovers. Springfield is lucky to have them. Big Dog Deli is an experience, not just a meal and it's absolutely worth checking out.
