BarFly's Review of Savoy
(formerly, La Cruda)
Half quiet lounge, half bistro, with a mid-century aesthetic, throughout. Seasonal dinner and drink menus, featuring locally grown ingredients, earn high praise from foodies and critics alike, but the abominable service has earned its own infamous reputation. Definitely worth a try, but not when the stakes are high - no first dates or dinners with crotchety in-laws.

The service is fine, even great some nights. It's a cute place with good beer and food. and hey, they have chimay on draft.
So Dot's is closed....Clinton St.Pub is closed...Nightlight and Clinton Corner are closed..and you just drank your last PBR at home. Then, and only then, if your desperate for a place to go, go to Savoy. Ok, maybe it's not quite that bad, they do have fried cheese curds, overpriced and midget portioned curds, but they have them none the less. I always thought it looked cool from the outside, but the place just doesn't have much personality, and I couldn't drink my watered down drink fast enough to get out of there. Skip it, better places all around.
