    Even though Craig's has a reputation for being a celebrity hot spot, it is so much more than that. The food is fabulous, and I've never had a meal there that I didn't love. And I'm a foodie. The waitstaff is super friendly and accommodating. Aside from the entrees, great drinks and great desserts. Highly recommend if you can get a reservation.
