Crush Wine Bar Grill

Firstly, the filet here is delicious, and the chef's choice charcuterie was quite good! Sadly, I was less impressed with the chicken picatta. It came a little overdone and dry, so wouldn't recommend. Service was a bit lacking the but the live music was great on the patio!

My wife and I had not been to Amarillo is many years and found this place by accident. It was quite surprising and a fresh experience for us as Amarillo has always been a city “behind the times” for us.

They had a nice, thorough drink menu. The food menu was small, however this often helps me make a quicker decision.

My wife has the Mac and cheese that was done very well. We highly recommend it. I had the coconut shrimp that came with risotto and asparagus. The shrimp was delightful. The asparagus was a little woody and limp. It was broken off to close to the end. It was also cool too long or not blanched. In other words. It needs improvement. I knew going in I was not going to be a fan of the risotto as I am not a fan of mushrooms, with that being said, my wife really appreciated it.

The outdoor dining was really pleasant despite the heat from earlier in the day. They only issue with the outdoor dining is the general public driving by with radios turned up. This is nothing the restaurant can do to accommodate, just an observation.

The service was rather slow. It was not a busy Wednesday night. It took entirely too long to get the water, silverware, drink order and plates out. Getting the table set up and drink orders taken should not take a tremendous amount of time even if they are slammed. The main dishes taking a little longer is acceptable.

Overall it was good experience.

Visited Crush in Mid-November and really enjoyed the atmosphere at the bar thanks to the bartender Josh. So nice to meet a friendly, knowledgeable and professional bartender who enjoys his job! Fabulous wine, lunch + crowd. Walking distance from the Downtown Marriott!

Great service and food have us returning for sure. We enjoyed the 2nd story inside table view after a long drive from Flagstaff, AZ. Jordan the bartender was an excellent server, as well as bartender. From his detailed service, knowledge of the food and excellent mixing skills, Jordan truly delivered a very satisfying dinner experience. The caramel apple martini tasted exactly as described. The strawberry, lime, cucumber mocktail was also a winner. The duck, tuna, both their salads and side of brussels satisfied all our tastebuds. We left looking forward to our next drive thru Amarillo for a return experience.

The decor and service were excellent, I wish I can say the same for the food. Just my honest opinion, not trying to sabotage or anything like that. The artichoke dip with fried wonton was kinda oily, the pan seared duck meat cooked perfectly medium rare, but the skin was super chewy. The peach salad was not using fresh peach. It was this brownish, we thought was canned peach. Again, I am being kinda picky here. It’s a solid place with excellent set up, but the food could be a bit better
