    Couldn't fault the food and service at Cru, the portion sizes of the share plates were generous, the selection broad, and the quality and freshness of the food fantastic. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and very friendly and warm. The only negative was that the lighting at the table was so low it was difficult to read the menu, and the air conditioning was quite cold, though the server did attempt to get it turned up for us, which helped. Overall would highly recommend CRU Bar as an exceptional place to dine.
