    Celebrated my friends birthday at A Crystal Cove for lunch . We shared the duck liver pate served with huckleberry jam , then 4oz of the Wagyu A-5 , perfect with a side of the best french fries around . Bubbles paired nicely with our "lite" lunch. Staci took care of us, she perfectly timed everything. All items are available for dinner. Perfect starters. A beautiful restaurant . Thank you Staci for your A-mazing service Thank you Jordan for your hospitality. B.C.

    We arrived early to enjoy a celebratory beverage at the bar. When time for dinner the hostess sat us at the wrong table then moved us after we placed our appetizer order. The waiter ignored us and forgot about us throughout the evening. Apologized but then never came back …..3 hours later I had to ask the hostess if I could pay the bill and they overcharged us!

    Fantastic as always, we are never disappointed in the food or service. Isabel was wonderful in helping us with our party of 7 yesterday by achieving a relaxing and great experience. When a place like this is always on point it usually has a lot to do with the management. I think Andrew may be the manager here and if I’m forgetting his name I apologize. With all the restaurants in our neighborhood this is one of our top places that we know will not disappoint. Cheers! Denise and Matthew

    We had such a great experience here. We went for my boyfriend’s birthday and it was perfect! The food was amazing, get the whipped feta if you go!! The drinks were yummy and our waitress Isabelle F was so helpful and informative. She really made our experience that much better.
