Crush - Chico

Very excellent staff, food, drinks. Loved all of it. We had the impressive bruschetta, chicken picatta, berry moscow mule, pizza. All of it was top notch. Chico over here surprising me. Keep it up! This will be my new fave place to come. Thank you, Crush for finding us a table when we were starving!!

We visited Crush after my daughter's Graduation from CSU Chico. The food was delicious and the service was excellent! The ambience is cozy and wonderful! Great Bar too!

Perfect place to have a romantic dinner,nice quiet setting. The food was served fresh and hot. And the employees were wonderful. We had to wait 30 minutes for a table, so best to call and reserve ahead of time. Other than the wait I very much enjoyed this restaurant!

Everything was fantastic. I would definately recommend the scampi arrabbiata as an app. Ceasar salad was great. Short rib stroganoff was the best but loved the chicken parm as well. Service was just as good as the food. I'll be back

Let me start by saying the service and our waitress Stevie was excellent. The food was excellent! Started with bruschetta with fresh mozzarella cheese, bread was kind of soft, kind of firm but not break your tooth hard like some bruschettas are that I've had. I had chicken piccata and the chicken was so tender you could cut it with a fork. For dessert I had vanilla ice cream with a warm brownie. The whole meal was absolutely delicious. There were seven of us eating and we all agreed everything was awesome and we would definitely eat there again.

Mi novia and I had a fabulous time. The food was delicious with healthy portions. The wait staff were very professional and courteous. The prices were reasonable, considering that most nice Chico establishments now charge bay area prices. That being said, the food matched the price. I wouldn't consider it a fabulous value, but a fitting price for good food. We had 2 appetizers & 2 entrees: carpaccio, cauliflower, bolognese & 🍆 Parmigiano. This was our second or third visit.

Best food in Chico hands down. Had the Caesar salad and ribeye. By far the best steak in town (blows 5th street out of the water) then we had desert Abby’s way! Everything was A++

katie and josh were amazing honestly give them raises, A1 customer service and my wife loves this place so even better that she was our server def coming back

Fantastic Italian spot. Expensive but worth it. Highly rated for a reason. Just remember to reserve a table.

Staff was friendly. Food was absolutely fantastic. Kyle our waiter was so helpful and accommodating. Made our experience so nice. Will come back again.

THE FOOD IS ALWAYS GREAT AND THE ENVIRONMENT IS PLEASANT. ENJOYED MY VALENTINES DAY HERE AND PLENTY PREVIOUS OCCASIONS. GREAT SELECTIONS OF WINE ( BY THE GLASS/BOTTLE ) AS WELL AS WHISKEYS AND BOURBONS.

Outstanding! It was a 'I went to heaven' moment as soon as the gorganzolla salad hit my palate. My entree was chicken picatta, and I must say, the most delicious of a meal❤❤

Great food! Highly recommend any of there pizzas, especially a great deal during happy hour. However, happy hour fills up quick ! Best Pizza in chico by far! Service was slow at times but the really good food and classy vibes made up for it! Very good desserts too!

From being warmly greeted by a delightful hostess to our server Tom our experience was amazing. We ordered their Wedge Salad intending to share it. Tom must have read our minds as the Kitchen crew made us each one of the most delicious Salads ever! (See photos!) We then ordered our entree and yet again Tom had it split for us!! Each and every ingredient was FRESH and delicious!! I feel this place warrants 9 stars!!

Ethan S did amazing service for us!! Never felt rushed and liked that we could take our time!! Lasagna I ordered was delicious!! Husband ordered the salmon and said it was amazing!! French Onion Soup was very good!! So was the Caesar Salad,crunchy and fresh!! Was a nice way to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary!!

First time there and very pleased. I ordered the Rib eye and split it with a friend and it was still a lot of food. Hands down the best steak you can get in chico! Cooked to perfection, loads of flavor. The loaded baked potatoe it came with was also delicious. The only thing they could do better is have more non alcoholic drinks. Otherwise, I rate this 5 stars.

Eating dinner at Crush was great. The food was superb and the service was above what was needed. I had eaten at another high end restaurant the night before and while it was very good, Crush was much better. Definitely going back again.

If you want an upscale atmosphere and outstanding dining experience in Chico, this is it! Top shelf cocktails, beautifully crafted salads, amazing lasagna, and perfectly cooked steak dishes make this place in a class above all others.

Great Birthday dinner for my daughter! Excellent cocktails! Unique & fresh, from the Dragon Lilly to the Old Fashion. Perfect service & excellent food.

Crush is our favorite spot for date night. me and my wife love the Churro bread pudding, so please bring it back:)

Crush is our favorite restaurant by far in Chico. We find ourselves in there at least once a week sometimes two. The food is amazing and the atmosphere feels like you're in the big city. But most of all, the thing that brings us back on the weekly is the staff. Customer service is this establishments top priority. Josh the manager is Amazing! No, matter how busy he is, he always takes the time to stop and say hello and to make sure that food and service we are receiving is everything we've come to expect and appreciate. The rest of the staff is amazing also, as I must assume they have been well trained by management and provide the utmost in customer service. I highly recommend Crush for all your special occasions. You won't be disappointed!

As I think back, I am pretty sure all of my visits to Crush have been excellent. Fantastic place for happy hour and pizza, a special (or casual) date or a dinner with parents. I recently took my son for a steak. Great Italian food and great with the meats!

Nice experience at Crush, my first time. Lots of happy hour crowd. Thins a bit at 6pm, then is still busy but not swamped. Went on a Friday night. The food was very good. Portions good sized and the food was generously topped. The drinks were good. Somewhat sporadic in quality during the happy hour rush. But, easily said, they know how to mix whatever your pleasure. Definitely putting Crush on my "go to" list.

Our server, Katie, was very impressive. Professional, personable and accommodating. My brother wanted to split a Wedge salad(who does that?), but she made it happen. Katie has a wealth of knowledge on their wines, cocktails and menu. All of which made for a great dining experience. My compliments to the chef, all the staff and especially, Katie👏

Been there several times and have always had a wonderful time. Food, service, ambiance all on par with what I expect from a great Italian restaurant.

Wasn't sure if this place would live up to the hype. I was very happy that it did. Arrived ten minutes before happy hour ended. Most places won't even bother to offer it to at that point but the server at the bar made sure we knew so we could get in an order before it closed off. Drinks were excellent. Gorgonzola salad was excellent. Crush pizza was excellent. Dessert was excellent. Price to food value was excellent.

Loved being on the patio outside at night, especially during the Farmers’ Market fun! The food was worth the return and the drinks make it a sure thing the next time I am in town. My friend and I had a wonderful time here. While the host was sub-par, our server was polite and helpful. Give it a go for sure!

Been here in Chico about 7 years and never been here. What was I doing. Amazing restaurant. Great ambiance and stellar customers service. The filet was amazing....better than 5th Street. I would have given a 5 stars but the Tiramisu wasn't exactly what we expected. Everything else was great. We had a reservation and sure helped get seated quickly.

Very delicious food. A great date place. Definitely make reservations on weekends. The food was good, but the food was warm, not hot. And so the food got cold fast. Not enjoyable.

Very nice entrance looks upscale nice lobby bar very busy and a bit loud in the bar area service was still good at the bar even with the crowd once we were seated it was better not loud food was great and the service matched definitely would eat there again but will have to try something new next time bottle prices on champagne were pretty good too

My friend and I weren't expecting to be dropped off at such a high end type of restaurant. We'd asked the Uber driver just to take us to a nice bar/ grill. But when we got there we said,"why not?" I'm glad we did. They had anazing bread an oil for starters. My margarita was amazing. The pizza was very unique and tasy. My friend very much enjoyed his steak. And we ordered this appetizer that was their version of a fondue and bread. Lord it had layers of such tasty stuff!! So very unexpected for us. But I would highly recommend for a great date night ;)

So sad they don't have the roasted bone marrow on their menu anymore:( i loved it! They still have plenty of great menu options esp. pastas. Chicken piccata is one if my fav. Nice cocktails and happy hour food menu. I wasn't a fan if their bruschetta though.. too much cheese

Crush was overall a great place to dine out! There is a strong selection of appetizers. We tried the meatballs, Brussels, crab stuffed peppers and bruschetta, all extremely well done

The waiter was excellent. The food was also excellent. When we first got there, open tables that remained open for the entire 45 minutes that we waited. Nice wine list just overpriced.

Good not great. When they have French onion soup it’s great and their stroganoff is good to great depending on when you get it. Love the cheese garlic bread. I’ve tried a handful of other things and been underwhelmed. Still my second choice for Italian food in town. Service and atmosphere are nice.

The Caesar salad was perfect as usual. I always add shrimp. This time I ordered the garlic cheese bread. It was awful! I expected melty cheese and garlic. Instead I received bread with a very strong Gorgonzola paste. No melty cheese at all.

Went here for an anniversary, on a slow day, server even asked if we were celebrating anything and we said yes and why and then didn't even get bread. Ordered the 6 hour Bolognese, which was just flavorless. Also had the margarita pizza which was oily and just gross. Not with the prices or the hype.

Don’t order online thru the crush website they will cancel ur order!!! Wack!!

I had an order on DoorDash, and it was just one item. I was kept waiting for 55 minutes for this order. Giving priority to in-store customers while making online customers wait is not ethical. Also, your staff marks the order as “ready” on the app before it actually is, which is also unethical. This misleads people and puts them in a difficult position. I hope the restaurant management takes this warning seriously and becomes more attentive in the future. Because of this, the best rating I can give you is 1 star.

After a laughably bad experience here a couple of years ago, my wife and I ventured in tonight to give them another shot. The first table we were seated at, we were being splashed by their water feature. We requested another table and while their faces told us they thought we should stick it out in the splash zone, they moved us. At 5:30 we were seated at our new table. We perused the menu and decided on drinks and apps but unfortunately never got to order. Despite 4 or so different waiters walking by, our table seemed to be unclaimed. Knowing this meal would cost close to $150, we decided to cut our losses after being ignored for 20 minutes. On the way out, my wife politely let the staff at the host stand know that we have been waiting for 20 minutes with no one stopping by our table for a drink order and we were going to just go ahead and leave. Both staff members stared at us blankly and never came up with a response of any kind- good or bad. This was almost identical to the service we received on our first visit in 2023, but that time we were inexperienced with what was to come and sat through an excruciating 2.5 hour long experience filled with wrong drinks and food and almost nonexistent service. Do your self a favor and go anywhere else.
