Cravings Grill


This is one of those strange places because they have a lot going on with the menu. They claim to be an Asian Fusion place, but when you look over the menu they have – Sushi, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Sandwiches, Teriyaki, Salads and American. I think because it’s located more in the country they have to keep the regular plain folks that like a good burger or chicken fried steak, but their also trying to grab the more adventures ones that like a good Asian dish.

Overall it was a good place and the prices seemed reasonable with other Asian style places we’ve been.

We had a Groupon that we bought for $10 which allowed us $20 of food, which is worth trying the place.

First we started out with some sushi, Spicy Tuna Roll $6 (red tuna, spicy sauce) and Sunrise Roll $9 (smoked salmon, avocado, mango, cream cheese, crunch topping, eel sauce). We both really liked the sunrise roll, except it’s a little too big for one bite.


D ordered the General Tso’s Chicken $10.95 (Select cuts of premium chicken battered with light and crisp tempura, deep fried until golden, tossed in a red Generals sauce with crushed red pepper, green peppers and onions. Served with your choice of steamed white rice or Chinese fried rice blended with carrots and peas.) The dish was ok, I think we’ve had better General Tso’s at other places. The best part was the fried rice it’s really good.


I ordered the Angry Beef $11.95 (Wok prepared select cuts of beef, Sukiyaki mix of onions, carrots, fresh red and green bell peppers, Sriracha hot chili sauce and crushed red pepper all tossed in a brown sauce served with your choice of steamed white rice or Chinese fried rice blended with carrots and peas.) This dish was really good and packed full of flavor. I would recommend ordering this one for sure. There was enough for me to bring half of it home for lunch the next day.

 
I would come back for sure and try some of their other items.

Dekker’s Mesquite Grill

Dekker’s Mesquite Grill is a little gem in the Flusher area. We’ve been here on several occasions with and without kids. They have a great outside sand play area for the kids. On the weekend they have bands play so when the weather is really nice it’s great to sit outside. They don’t take reservations so be sure you get there before the crowd, because once people show up it’s hard to get them to leave.

This time we started out with Spinach N’ Cheese Dip $9 (Spinach, bacon, and our cheese blend melted to gooey perfection with crispy tortilla chips.) as well as Calamari $12. The spinach dip was really nice and thick and creamy and I would recommend trying it. As for the calamari it fell short. I did appreciate that the serving sizes are larger than most places so they are great for sharing.

D had to try a cup of their Poblano Soup $5 which was on their list of specials. The soup hit the spot and we both agreed it’s worth ordering again.

For the main dish we each ordered something off the specials I had a Red Snapper with Ettoufe topping $35 and D ordered the Redfish $33 also adding on fried asparagus for $4. Both of our dishes where excellent and cooked really well. We where able to take home leftovers with the portions being so large.
