Welcome to Crave Restaurant and Lounge. After almost a year of construction and planning we are proud to say that Crave opened December of 2009 to rave reviews and is owned by Chef Edward Kowalski with his wife Laurie. Crave serves contemporary food with modern twists in a romantic and intimate setting and is located directly under the entrance of the Walkway over the Hudson.
The team of chefs consisting of Edward Kowalski, Catherine Williams and Craig Capano, all alumni of the Culinary Institute of America aim to make Crave the most exciting restaurant in Poughkeepsie. The style,decor, and ambiance of Crave brings Manhattan to Washington St.
Our mission is the achieve such distinction in food and wine, service, atmosphere, and setting that the restaurant gains a first class reputation for gastronomy and gracious hospitality which will bring new and repeat customers year after year. We strive to have every customer who walks thru the door of Crave to have an overall dining "experience" and leave impressed with the seasonal and regionally inspired menus and chic decor that they will be excited to return again.
