Welcome to Crave

Owned and created by Angela Vitale and her daughter Ava Vitale, Crave is a family managed
and operated, high energy, neighborhood restaurant centered around innovative approaches to
contemporary and classic cuisine. Our focus is on high quality, yet affordable ingredients
integrated with cherished family recipes. We know good food is important. With that said, we
also understand that how we make our guests feel matters just as much as any one dish we serve
them.

Angela’s culinary vision shares the spotlight with an inventive cocktail program, curated by Ava,
that is playful and thoughtfully devised. Crave features Rockford’s only 90 point wine
list which takes the guesswork out of ordering a fantastic bottle of wine.

Hip and humble, Crave offers a sophisticated, yet warm and open atmosphere decorated with
striking custom artwork and beautiful chandeliers. The contemporary style dining room with cozy
booths, rich leather chairs and bright white table top with a front row seat to the hustle
and bustle of North Perryville Road.

The highly personalized tableside service is intended to make every guest feel special and well
taken care of. We go above and beyond to establish genuine connections with our guests and
staff, through intentional and intuitive service, to create a truly unforgettable dining
experience. Service is black and white – hospitality lives in color. We look forward to taking
care of you!
