Crave Hot Dogs & BBQ - Food Truck

First food truck Tuesday of the summer in our neighborhood. Good stuff! Tried 2 brisket bowls. First, brisket over Mac 'n Cheese topped with shredded cheddar and drizzled with bbq sauce. Second brisket over a square of cornbread and baked beans, topped with shr3dded cheddar and that same bbq sauce.Both are generous portions of brisket. The brisket is a little wet for my taste, but nicely smoked with a crisp bark and very tasty. Plenty of other things to try on this truck plus a variety of delicious looking hot dogs.

If you're looking for an over-the-top, delicious hot dog, then look no further. Stopped by crave on a whim and man am I happy i did. We walked in and was greeted by friendly staff and a wall of draft beers for you to choose from. I'm not a beer fan but I did locate a cider or two on the wall as well!I ordered the loaded baked potato dog. A delicious hot dog topped with crispy tater tots, crunchy bacon bits, sour cream, and shreds of cheddar cheese. This behemoth is more than enough to fill you up, but you might want to try a few different dogs on their menu!They also have bowls. I ordered the mac and cheese brisket bowl while the bf ordered the brisket bowl. I was only able to eat a few bites after the hotdog but the flavor was delicious! They also have sauces on the table for you to add to spice up the different things you order!Definitely some craveable food served in this kitchen!

Great service, ambiance and food! I ordered a gluten free chili and cheese hotdog and a Chicago hotdog. They have gluten free buns!! The hotdogs, to me, are huge! My son ordered regular baked potato hotdog and a Mac and cheese dog. We got tater tots too! They have a variety of beer!!! They also have board games so we played Sorry! Food was yummy!! We will be back!

My family and I had the opportunity to Grab CRAVE to go and it was great. We took of advantage of their $2 hot dogs + 2 free toppings and it came with a chips and a drink! We ordered one plain, one with ketchup and one with chili + Cole slaw and we thought it was delicious! The staff is very nice and welcomed us into the store! The restaurant was clean and the drinks were fresh! I love that the restaurants has multiple TVs which would be perfect for sports games. For parking the parking lot can fill up quickly but there is a parking deck connected to the shopping center that you can us! We look forward to going back because we heard that the hot sausage is delicious. Overall solid restaurant in a great location

This is a new business. They have a great menu, good selection of beer, food was well presented, fresh ingredients. Speed of service was great. Facilities were spotless. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Ordered Crave today for lunch, Crave Supreme sub to Mild Sausage, Sweet Corn Nuggets, and Mac and Cheese.Mac and Cheese could have been Stouffer's Frozen Mac and Cheese for the depth of flavor it had.... not worth the price go the grocery store and get one out of the freezer section. Sweet Corn Nuggets are again another item that tastes and looks like they came in frozen. Really would have hurt to take the effort to make these two items in house?The star is going to be the Crave Supreme - the sausage is flavorful and the smoked brisket is tender. The bun seems to be a top-quality bun. Skips the sides and go for the sausages. Because without that sausage this would have been only 1 star.

Located north of NCState main campus. Before I left home did not know this is a chain/franchise. This Raleigh location was easy to find with plenty of parking.My wife ordered the brisket sandwich and I had the taco trio. The brisket sandwich bread was soggy on bottom and the taco top portion was a little dry. The taco order comes with one pulled BBQ, brisket and a pulled chicken topped with shredded cheddar cheese, tomato and bbq sauce. Though the flour tortillas used did not fall apart with the large amount of liquid that came out while eating, I felt the tortillas were tough. I ordered a drink and was planning on having sweet tea. When I got to self service drink station I found a lipton machine which processed one portion at a time, not brewed. This is a bbq restaurant in North Carolina and I expect fresh brewed tea.Bottom line I would not order the taco trio again. Personally there is better bbq in this area so probably will not be back.

Says they close at 9 but I got shewed out the door at 8:30 and she would take my order? SMH.

Great hotdogs, good bbq, the corn bites appetizer was unique and very very tasty. Fantastic pay-by-the-ounce craft beer wall. I wish so many more places had this!

If you're in the market for restaurant space, then hold tight a few months as this place will have a big For Lease sign in front soon enough. The food is just not good. Serving bad pulled pork in these parts is a recipe for disaster. Rubber tater tots that I can only presume are cooked in something akin to a microwave and a hot dog where the center was literally cold - not cool - cold. Anyone up for cold swine!Combine that with inconvenient parking and then other little things - like, it's March Madness, you're in the middle of basketball country, you have prob a dozen big screens and none of them are on college basketball. All those things plus overspending to build a self serve beer wall in a post Covid world (no thank you) and it all adds up to another new restaurant giving it a shot in this space in six months.
