To strengthen our mission, we’ve partnered with some of the most respected names in sustainable seafood and ocean science. Soon after opening Crave Fishbar in Midtown East, we became the first New York City restaurant partner of the Monterey Bay Aquarium. After MBA evaluated our menu and sourcing practices, we became NYC’s first 100% sustainable seafood restaurant. We also partner with the James Beard Foundation’s Smart Catch, a chef-driven program committed to promoting sustainable seafood. Chef Todd Mitgang is an ambassador for the Seafood Nutrition Partnership, a national nonprofit with a mission to promote a healthy, seafood-inclusive diet. In 2015, we became a Certified B Corporation–joining just a few other restaurants worldwide in achieving this status. This certification is one of our proudest achievements. Being a certified B Corps solidifies our commitment to using our business as a source of good for our community. As part of our community outreach, we work with the Billion Oyster Project to help restore New York’s oyster reefs.

In addition to the big names, we also partner with the local fishing communities and shellfish farms in the New York area. Our longstanding relationships with the local seafood community enable us to provide the fresh, sustainable, and local seafood you’ve come to expect.
