crudo wood fired taverna

My wife and I love this place! The service is friendly and the food is excellent. We visited with another couple and shared the mussels with chorizo. This was good and a nice change of pace from the typical white wine sauce mussels are usually cooked in. The lamb pappardelle is unbelievable and the the sea bass special was outstanding. I have visited this place often and it is our go to place in Frisco whether it is just the two of us or if we have a small group.

Food was excellent. Wine was fine, dessert tasty. But between the loud patrons, loud live music, and brick walls, I had to communicate with my date through gestures and occasional shouting. If they can make it quieter, I'd give it four stars. But as it is, it's too loud, and too cramped to recommend fully, especially at the price.

Had a Saturday lunch here. Restaurant was almost empty which was strange. Shared a pizza which was delicious and fresh. Also, Groupon vouchers available for this restaurant.

Unsure of what to expect, we booked this reservation (if you are trying to eat Friday, I highly suggest a reservation) for a Thursday and there was live entertainment, and a quaint row of tables-for-two near the bar. We chose this, rather than the main seating area for the ambience. It paid off. We had the Caprese Crostini as an appetizer which was a 9/10. And the main courses (for us) were the Sea Bass special and she had a roasted chicken. Both of which were well presented by the chef and the waiter was professional and courteous. We topped the meal with a Santa Margarhita Pino Grigio and split a tiramisu. I will go here again.
