My husband and I just had the King Prime Rib. It was absolutely the best prime rib we have ever had and it was HUGE!! We are from Chicago and would fly... read more!
Review of Craves Coastal Kitchen by Amanda Sergeant from Chicago
Waited 20 minutes to get waitress to take order. They were very understaffed. Had one waitress trying to manage a full bar and several tables. After ordering waited another 30 minutes before food came. Had ordered my steak filet medium rare and was well done to point I took it home to feed dog. Smallest filets I’ve ever seen! Waitress offered to get manager so I could share concerns with him. Half an hour later still no manager to talk with. Ordered take out sandwich and fries Took another 20 minutes for that. Only to find out later no fries were in the box. Finally went to find manager since he had never showed up. He said they were a family owned business and they were doing best they could. Said if I just wanted to be a bitch and complain to get out of his restaurant. If I could give a negative review it would be a minus ten. It’s the worst restaurant with marginal food quality and a manager who not only doesn’t want negative feedback but also verbally abused those that give it. Don’t go there. It’s truly a waste of time, money ,and opening yourself up to insults if you’re not happy with the experience.

We're back in town and first time visiting here as Craves and was very pleased with the food and service and loved the new decor. So much nicer now and although they carried a few of the old menu items over they have many new items that sound delicious. Their prime rib is still very good and the bourbon salmon was very tasty. I had a cocktails martini with coconut that was very creative. Very happy they managed to turn this place around and we'll definitely be back.
Highlight of visit: The Bourbon Salmon dish had a great flavor without losing the taste of the salmon. The Coconut Martini (Dream?) is very decadent.

It was very busy especially around the bar and had a good atmosphere. Service was stretched but staff seemed to keep their calm and managed to get to everyone. Sandwiches took a while to come out and were quite good but needed more flavor... just didn't have a lot of flavor and couldn't taste any blackening. I'd like to come back when it's not bike week and try a sit down meal here.

I am very impressed with how they have turned the old Martins restaurant around. It's so much brighter and more coastal feeling, with a more varied menu and the addition of some great sounding cocktails. My wife and I sat up at the bar and had some good dining/drinking neighbors and the service was very professional and friendly. We shared a couple of starters one of which was the calamari that I really liked, and I had the Smoked Chicken Sandwich and my wife the Blackened Grouper Sandwich. I loved mine and I guess my wife's Grouper was good as there wasn't any left! I was driving so only had one beer but my wife tried two different mixed drinks and again had nothing left! It was busy so I'm sure the new Crave's will do very well here.

Bravo to the new owner for turning a tired old restaurant around and into a fresh and vibrant place with much improved food and definitely far better service. My T-bone steak was very good and my friend said the fish and chips were the best. Hope they keep up the quality!

We went there two days ago. VERY disappointed. I have been there before, however, the other night, we only received ONE dinner roll each and one side with each meal. For an additional roll, we'd be charged extra. The same goes for asking for a second side. We'll not return.

Excellent meal and service at Crave's Coastal Kitchen. The restaurant was packed, so we waited for our table in the bar area. We were seated quickly and our servers in both locations were fabulous. Food was plentiful and very very good! Will definitely return.
Highlight of visit: Plenty of delicious fried shrimp - yum!

We have been in Palm Coast for 21 yrs. We went to Martins 21 yrs ago and were not impressed with the owners at all. So we never went back until the new owners came. We LOVE the prime rib and I always get 2 sides of collard greens. They are amazing!!
Highlight of visit: Queen prime rib and collard greens.

Help us understand. What's wrong with this review by Lynn?
This place by far is overcharged and NO good food at all. Bland food, steak not cooked to temperature type, and no compensation was offered to us or having a manager come by to apologize. We just moved here out of state and it was very disappointing with our entire family who agreed this is bar food that is over priced, along with pre frozen food that is served. Will never return here again!
Highlight of visit: Nothing was worth returning, even fountain drinks had a gross aftertaste.

I was super excited to try this new restaurant. Don’t bother. Bland, tasteless overcooked bar food at premium prices. Shrimp was dried out, scallops were anemic with no brown color at all. Broccoli was frozen microwaved overcooked. Whole meal was just blah! I really wanted to love it but was not good.

This is our first visit since the renovations and we were impressed with how they have converted the place into a very lovely welcoming space. We started with the Halfmoon Mozzerallas which had a tasty marinara sauce, then for a main I had the crab leg special with baked potato and slaw. The crab legs were perfectly cooked and dusted with just the right amount of seasoning which I assume was Old Bay. My husband splurged on the Craves cut prime rib with a lobster tail which he thoroughly enjoyed and said it was worth the cost. I also treated myself to a Key Lime martini which I do recommend and husband stuck to his usual beer. The service was very good and we were very happy with our time here, but for us it is pricey and was a holiday treat which we couldn't afford to do every month.

Went to Craves with family today & we all had the queen cut prime rib. Was delicious & cooked as requested. Service was great. The upgrade of the restaurant looks fantastic. What a view from the upstairs dining area!

Dinner tonight was amazing! The place was packed with standing room only in the bars but staff kept everything coming in a timely manner. The prime rib was awesome and their new drinks are awesome. The recent updates are wonderful and really changed it for the better. My hat is off to the new owner for turning this place around.

We stopped in for lunch and sat by the window. The first thing we noticed was that the windows are now clean and everywhere is looking so much nicer and more inviting. All the employees were friendly and the new owner stopped by to greet us. The food was very good and tasted much fresher and not as heavy as before. The Halibut special was sublime. Also, they have some wonderful drinks on the bar menu and I highly recommend the Key Lime Martini to finish off the meal. The new people here have made a great effort to improve this once neglected place and it's become our new favorite along the beach.

Used to come here often but haven't been here since before the pandemic, and with the new renovations, it does feel much nicer than it did before. Not sure if much has changed with the menu and the food was how I remember it. Server was OK and the drinks were decent. No lunch on weekdays. The outside needs something to make it more inviting. But went here for a good prime rib and I did get that!

It's been updated here since I was last here and it feels more clean and brighter, but the menu is basically the same and I thought the food was a slight improvement. The prime rib is still big and they have a very good aus ju and my wife enjoyed the maple pecan salmon, but prices as with everywhere have risen. Our server was awesome and very friendly. I wish they were open for lunch though as this food is getting too heavy for me to eat later in the day.

Vast improvement over previous ownership! Our meal was superb with delicious food and top notch service. Steaks and seafood dishes were all cooked to perfection and tasted great. Bread, salad and sides all fresh. A lot brighter and much less dank inside.
