In Short – Straddled between shops like Badgley Mischka and Roberto Cavalli on the shopping and people-watching mecca known as Sunset Plaza, this bright cafe with a big red awning and tall potted trees is where European émigrés and celeb-seeking tourists leisurely lunch under canary-colored umbrellas. The Mediterranean menu offers favorites like sesame-crusted chicken salad, steamed mussels in white wine broth, feta-covered stuffed eggplant and Hunter's pie, a pastry filled with ground beef, spinach and onions. Turkish-style flattened steak with spicy salsa is a dinner…

Always Great!

by JAG099

Greek Salad and Crab Ravioli... my fav! The best part is that you get to bring your own wine and enjoy the views of sunset while you sit back and relax. Its a great place for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I have daily Cravings for Cravings!

by LewMarklin

I used to drive all the way from Santa Barbara, and make it a point to go out of my way, from wherever I was at in the city, to have Lunch or dinner at Cravings. Now that I am in the neighborhood, it's just a hop and a skip away. I love this neatly tucked away spot on Sunset. The food is great, the atmosphere is perfect for a casual lunch or a semi formal dinner. I love the little breezeway seating, indoors seating if you like it. Here's how they got me though. Are you ready? The Artichoke!! I love to trounce around the city trying everyones artichokes. I will just say, plain out, it's the best Artichoke around. Love the Lasagna. Traditional and perfect. The service is friendly and lively. They were good enough sports to let me conduct TV interviews on their back patio. I even point my celebs to this spot! Cheers!

  • Pros: Service, location, food
  • Cons: not suited for parties over 6 probably.

we both scraped our plates!

by SarahFromNYC

I'm visiting form nyc so my friend & I have been trying to eat at as many places as possible. This was probably the best so far. I ordered the seared tuna with pesto, I like it on the rare side & it was cooked perfectly I almost didn't need a knife. The fish was not chewy or tough & it was very fresh. My friend had the stuffed chicken which was also amazing. Needless to say there was nothing left on our plates we even ate our veggies =). The portions were perfect & the pricing was good, the check for both dinners & a bottle of wine was only $80. We will be dinning here again I heard the crab ravioli is to die for, that will be my next try.
