Aaron and Dana, owners of Crave, are high school sweethearts who turned a shared dream (and a love of food) into something truly special.

Since opening in 2001, they’ve navigated the ups and downs of building a business together. But through it all, one thing has stayed the same: their partnership.

From the menu to the team to the overall experience, they’re hands-on in every detail, creating something that’s uniquely Crave.

Today, you can visit them at Crave on Main Street and Crave on Front Street. Stop in, say hello, and experience it for yourself.

Some pairings just make sense. Our Filet with a glass of Hess Maverick Ranches Cabernet, accompanied by black truffle mashed potatoes, cipollini onions, oyster mushrooms, and a cognac black pepper demi, served with blue cheese. This is the dinner you've been thinking about all week.

Nearly 25 years in, and we're back where it all started. The new Crave on Front Street menu is a return to our roots, and that means bringing back some of the recipes that made Crave what it is. The Grilled Steak Wrap. Bacon Double Cheeseburger Soup. Potato Crusted Walleye. The classics are back, reimagined for a new chapter.

Bright, punchy, and built to share. The Akron-Style Giardiniera — pickled peppers, olives, garlic herb oil, and creamy whipped feta-boursin spread with focaccia, ciabatta, and baguette — meets its match in the Cantina Paloma. Ruby red grapefruit, Teremana Reposado, and a Tajín rim. Acidic, citrusy, and refreshing in all the right ways.

Bright meets bold. Our Jumbo Shrimp is served over Potato Gnocchi with Fennel, Grapefruit, Kalamata Olives, and a Calabrian Chili Pesto topped with fresh Basil. A dish that’s as vibrant on the plate as it is on the palate. Come taste it tonight.
