My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time at Crave at the Mall of America. The food was delicious and the service was fast and the staff were friendly. We are looking forward to going back and trying other food on the menu.

Absolutely loved sitting at the counter. It was a good volume with bumping music but could still easily hear my friend. The rolls were fantastic and the crispy rice tuna is so good. Loved the Sake we ordered too.

Absolutely delicious and fresh sushi! Hit the spot after a long day at the museums. Everything was presented absolutely beautifully. Maybe next time they'll be allowed to serve sake. :)
