So we went to dinner at the crumb on Saturday night around 7:00 p.m. . The restaurant was busy but not overcrowded and because the space was a little more intimate the ambiance of the restaurant was very cozy. I also enjoy the fact that there was art on the walls from local artists that you could purchase if you found something quite appealing.
I want to give a huge huge huge shout out to our server Sarah who took care of us splendidly the entire night. Her and my friend bonded over them both being midwesterners and we all had a hoot together laughing and just chatting about different things.
Sarah was very kind in giving a suggestions regarding what we potentially could eat and knew the menu quite well whenever we had a question about one of the items.
For drinks we ended up getting the Pink Pony Club, the Bailando, and the Halo. All three of these drinks were made with either wine or beer and not going to lie I was a little hesitant as to what the taste would be and we were all floored. Every single drink had its own burst of flavor, it was very complex, but also light on the palate where it was extremely refreshing. Greatly recommend all of them.
For dinner we started off with the Deviled eggs, a kale Caesar salad followed by the soba noodles, Peruvian chicken wings, and lastly the portabella sliders. The deviled eggs had a beautiful hint of truffle which really made the filling quite delicate but both at the same time. The Kale Caesar salad was very fresh, the dressing it had was not overly done, and the fresh parmesan was tasted throughout every bite. I really enjoyed the soba noodles because the sauce it had had the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. I call this out because both my husband and my best friend are not fans of spicy and they really enjoyed this dish. It was actually finished by all of us. The other dish we had were the Peruvian chicken wings that had an amazing taste on their own and did not require the dipping sauce that came with it. The sauce did enhance the flavor. The one call out for this dish, as it is more of a personal preference, is I would have liked the chicken wings just a little more crispy.
We ended the night with these brownies that were a amazing blend of a chocolate torte and brownie combined. We got two orders the first one had the brownie melting in your mouth the second order was a little bit more decadent but still not overpowering with the chocolate.
We gave a big thank you to the chef before she left and we are so looking forward to coming back and trying out the other dishes...
Read moreMy wife and I ate at The Crumb last night (Tuesday) and we had a delicious meal and very friendly service. This is a new restaurant that has taken over the Bernal Star location. We had the wild mushroom crostini which was bursting with mushroom flavor and aroma. Yum! Next I had the beef borscht and Sheila had the curry butternut squash. My borscht was brimming with chunks of beets, potato and beef while the broth was rich and very tasty and not salty. The squash soup was thick and flavored with curry which enhanced rather than overwhelmed the squash flavor.
The we got the harissa lamb meatballs with couscous. You have to like lamb (we do) because the meatballs were very "lamby." It came with a garlic aioli. Taking a slice of the meatball, putting some of the aioli on it and then dipping it into the couscous is the way to go here. Bursting with the combination of flavors.
Finally for dessert we had the raspberry chocolate mousse. What a great finish.
In the future they aren't going to open on Tuesday so you should check for their hours. Can't wait to try their weekend...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of dining at The Crumb, a place I had been eagerly anticipating for quite some time, and it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Our server, Sarah, was exceptionally attentive and made sure we felt right at home.
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the Truffle Hamachi Crudo—absolutely the best I've ever tasted! It was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. We also ordered the beet arugula salad, which was nothing short of a masterpiece; the combination of textures and flavors was simply top-notch.
Overall, my experience at The Crumb was fantastic. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable meal, and I can't wait to return for another...
