• cocktail hour event

  I hosted a cocktail hour here and it was excellent! The food was tasty and interesting and the cocktails were brilliant. Everyone had a blast and the Kru team was the best to work with!

• dinner with friends, party of 5

  Not sure how this place got its fame, but food is so so, worst service ever. We were a party of 5, and server add an auto grat on our bill, says 6 or more on the menu.
