Crave Restaurant Downtown Santa Ana

A casual mom-and-pop restaurant located in Downtown Santa Ana specializing in sandwiches, salads, daily soups, & some of the best cookies you'll ever eat.

At Crave, we believe that simple, fresh, and pure ingredients create the most satisfying and memorable dining experience. We make everything fresh, spending a lot of time slicing, chopping, blanching, braising, baking, etc. You will be able to tell from the first bite. We offer gourmet seasonal food available for take-out, dine-in, or delivery. Since we use fresh seasonal ingredients, we will be introducing new specials weekly. 

If a new item becomes popular, we will add it to our daily menu. We like to get feedback from our customers and keep things changing. Crave is a casual place where you will receive a warm welcome when you walk in the door, and fresh, innovative food is served up with unsurpassed quality and consistency. 

We are dedicated to keeping our neighbors, friends, and guests happy. It's all about the food. We use healthy fats like extra virgin olive oil, pressed canola, grape seed, and vegetable oils. We use seasonal, locally grown, organic produce as often as possible. We offer vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free items on our menu. All of our salad dressings are house-made and gluten-free. We only use the freshest, pure ingredients. We bake our breads and goodies in-house daily. Our fruits and vegetables are from local farms whenever possible. 

We make almost everything from scratch daily and smoke, roast, and grill our meats in-house daily.
