"Outstanding Restaurateur - Includes restaurants like Crawford and Son, Brodeto, Jolie, and others." - Erin Perkins
"Chef Scott Crawford's flagship restaurant, recognized as a James Beard Award finalist for 'Outstanding Hospitality'." - Henna Bakshi
"Six-time James Beard semifinalist Scott Crawford is a master at setting a cozy mood in his restaurants. Even if it’s still bright and sunny outside, crossing the threshold instantly drops patrons into a low-lit dining room with exposed brick walls and dark furniture dotted with candles. There’s a seemingly unspoken rule — conversation hums inside but never roars, which might be a byproduct of only being able to seat 60 at full capacity. The manchego-herb biscuits are a menu mainstay and not to be missed, as is whatever rotating crudo is on offer. Share a few small plates and then head downstairs to cocktail bar Sous Terre for a nightcap." - Elliott Harrell
"Five-time James Beard Award Semifinalist Scott Crawford set out on his own in 2016 with the first of what will soon be three restaurants, Crawford and Son. The menu features rotating elevated American classics. Recent dishes include a chilled eggplant soup with smoked trout and preserved lemon, almonds, and tarragon, a roasted pork chop with farro and summer squash, and a sweet tea sundae with local peaches, brown butter, and a pecan crumble for dessert. Cocktails, wine, and beer are available, as well as unique non-alcoholic cocktails." - Matt Lardie
"Scott Crawford, chef/owner of Crawford and SonMy hope is that we’re appreciated! I hope that we’re appreciated by our own government as the largest employer of people without a college degree." - Erin Perkins
