Found out about this because I hear it’s one Kylie Jenner’s favorite restaurants in LA and wow I’m pleasantly surprised that I don’t have anything negative to say. The service was excellent, the food was well seasoned and the portion sizes were below average but I was super comfortable. The bread they offer is absolutely wonderful , The truffle chicken was excellent and the vegan peanut butter ice cream was okay. Definitely give this place a solid 8.5/10

Such a chic place in West Hollywood! They take reservations and it’s hard to get a walk in, so it would be smart if you reset before you go. We went for brunch and got generous portions Avocados toast and quesadillas. Ambience is lovely, the staff is great and the food is good.

This is the first result that'll come up when you search up celebrity hot spots restaurants in Los Angeles, with Jimmy Kimmel's Yahya standing outside waiting for Arnold Schwarzenegger to step out after his lunch and the line of Rolls Royces parked outside. I'll be very honest, it's more for the culture than the actual food itself. Don't get me wrong, the food here is great. So is the ambiance and atmosphere, as well as, the service who was considerate and patient. That being said, I didn't feel any "wow" factor about this place, seemed like any typical upscale restaurant in Los Angeles. Getting a reservation in this place can be tougher, the place is in high demand and quite popular, it's one of those Los Angeles essentials that's on everyone's list "for the culture." Everything we shared was good. We all shared a Burrata for salad, Fried Calamari for appetizers, and Mushroom Truffle for pizza. As sides for the table we got a Jalapeno Creamed Corn, Sauteed Broccoli, and Mac n Cheese. As individuals, everyone played it safe and got the Chicken Parmigiana, which was good. I was told the scallops were bad both in taste and texture.

A delicious dinner in a fun part of town. West Hollywood is always entertaining and tonight being Grammys night it was especially lively with a few celebrities dining in tonight as well. I know it’s known as a celebrity hotspot, a paparazzo was literally out front when we left and as we dined, but personally I don’t care about or go anywhere for celebrities so I was here for the food specifically. We were able to find parking a block away for a 6PM Sunday dinner, but this area can get quite hard to find a space depending on the day and time. Our server Seth was very attentive and did a great job. This is the sort of place that people know all the employees by name, there were a lot of regulars dining in tonight as well. They have a full bar on the east side of the restaurant and a lot of tables and booths on the west side. I have heard that they some of the best Chicken Parmesan in town so I wanted to try and see how good it is compared to Dan Tana’s. I would say it’s very close and easily probably my second favorite in LA. We started off with the Green Goddess Salad, which was terrific and packed with flavor. We also ordered a personal favorite of mine: the Grilled Artichoke. The horseradish aïoli with it was the perfect addition. For our entrées we chose the Chicken Parmesan, which comes with a side of pasta, and also the Truffle Tagliatelle. Both were terrific, and we both would order them again. Finally for dessert we ordered the Butterscotch Pudding and it went quickly and also came with a few butterscotch cookies. Overall a bit expensive but seriously delicious. They have a lot of great options on the menu and I definitely plan to be back in the future. I would recommend it to anyone for any occasion. I know they do breakfast as well so next time I plan to try that.

I absolutely love Craig’s. Every time I’ve gone you leave full and have an amazing time. Service is very good and they are very knowledgeable about the menu. I took my brother who was visiting from out of town he loved it. The steak was cooked perfectly. We shared the scallops too and it was the perfect combo. Lots of flavor. Craig’s is in a lot of people’s restaurant top picks in West Hollywood.

This review is only for the Fresh Baked Chocolate Chip cookies as I’ve never had any other dishes from this restaurant. But seriously, what are they putting in these cookies!? They are the BEST cookies I have ever had in my life. It’s been a week since I’ve had them and still can’t believe how unbelievably delicious they are. Now I just need to figure out how I can get these in Vancouver!!

My best friend and I wanted to have dinner at Craigs for a while and it finally happened. Really amazing service, ambiance and the food was DEER LICIOUS!! We had the Tuna Tartar, Chicken Parm and Bolognese. If I wasn’t so full I would have ordered a second round.

We love Craigs! Either dine in or delivery, it’s satisfaction guaranteed! One of my favorites is the Vegan Wise Guy pizza, it’s fully loaded and great for sharing! I also personally love the Vegan Chicken Parmigiana. But our all time favorite is the Vegan Spaghetti Bolognese. It’s a MUST HAVE!! Service is great! When we dine in, the servers are always on point, knowledgeable and accommodating. The ambiance reminds you of a classic Italian with modern artwork on the walls. It’s trendy and celebs frequent the spot. And of course, i have to mention the Fresh Baked Chocolate Chip Cookies, it comes warm and the chocolate chips are perfectly melted. And I can’t forget their vegan ice cream, it’s a sure treat!
