    Potatoes that came with fish and chips were outstanding. Like smashed and great flavor. Fried green tomatoes are a must

    Average food, decent service, nothing to write home about. Reminded me of a Disney Resort restaurant.

    We ate at Foodcraft several time during a week-long stay. The food was uniformly excellent. Very tasty, not too salty. Service was very good and the views are amazing! We kept going back because it was so good.

    Had their Thursday night specials. Very good and ample portions. Glass of wine included was a bonus. However the noise level was very annoying. Could hardly hear the person across the table. Would go back on a different night.

    We were running a bit late but they called and changed our reservation. The service was great the food was very good. The only downside was it being loud but some people don’t know how to act in public. Can’t really fault the restaurant for that. We will go back to this one.

    Excellent. Our waitress was phenomenal. Saw reviews where they are accommodating to large parties and this was very true. I received a call asking about arrangements to ensure that it met our expectations. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
