The Ivy Inn Restaurant

2244 Old Ivy Rd, Charlottesville

On the positive side: when I made the reservation, there were no tables shown to be available on the ground level. Thus, I chose the 2nd floor, but I'm handicapped. NASH, at the entry point, made it possible for us to sit on the 1st floor. VERY THANKFUL.

Fleurie Restaurant

My wife and I had a superb dinner. I think Fleurie would qualify as a one star Michelin restaurant if it were evaluated. In addition to great cuisine and excellent wines, service was very attentive and friendly.

Busy on a Monday morning. Very good pastries and Baguette. Got a sausage/egg/cheese croissant. Good but the sausage was a single circular sausage (hotdog style), which was not enough for the size of the sandwich.The latte and Cappuccino we ordered was totally ruined. Burnt and way too hot.

Al Carbon

1875 Seminole Trail, Charlottesville

This is our family’s #1 go-to restaurant in Charlottesville, and one of the few places I know of where the food is nearly as good when doing takeout as it is when dining in. They serve consistently amazing food (with great service), and their prices are reasonable! Pretty much everything on the menu is delicious, but our favorite thing to do is just get some rotisserie chicken and tequila pork ribs plus a few of our favorite sides (esquites, green onions, choriqueso, guac, plantains etc.) and a handful of different sauces (our favorite is the chipotle crema). Trust me Cville people, if you haven’t tried Al Carbon, you are missing out!

We are from the UK and the pizza here is some of the best we have had. We got the mushroom and the last one on the menu (meat with hot honey) - amazing and both so different. We sat at the bar and were served by Zak who was so friendly! He even messaged his brother to recommend breweries in Asheville - our next stop. The breweries are incredible too! Thanks so much Zak!

Guajiros Miami Eatery

Guajiros is one of my favorite hole in the wall restaurants in Charlottesville. They offer a classic twist of Cubano food that is immeasurably delicious. I crave their queso frito almost daily and I'm immensely appreciative of their food. The staff has always been warm and welcoming into their establishment. Will come back time and time again.

Awesome eat in, wonderful staff and service. The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is it seems to go orders are not as fresh as in the past and the salsa is to hot for my taste and not enough cilantro. Eat in is always excellent. I always get the shrimp taco salad or the shrimp quesadilla. Thank u for your outstanding service.

Interesting place. Food good but the staff (all of them) find their phone more interesting than the guests and sit around reading their phone in the restaurant. We were also being asked during the main course if we want dessert instead of waiting till we finished which was a first for us. Gave us the feeling we needed to leave instead of being welcome. Having spend a lot of time in Turkey I didnt feel the Turkish hospitality.Again good food just work on being more welcoming...

Michie Tavern ca. 1784

The food was nothing short of amazing. Every dish we ordered exceeded our expectations, and there was not a single item that disappointed us.We were fortunate to be served by Paulette and Tina, both of whom provided exceptional service. Their warm and attentive nature added to the overall dining experience, making us feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout our meal.While all the dishes were delicious, a few stood out as personal favorites. The tomatoes and BBQ pork left a lasting impression, showcasing the rich flavors and quality ingredients. The tomatoes were likely fresh and bursting with flavor, while the BBQ pork had a perfect balance of tenderness and smokiness that made it a true delight to savor.To conclude our meal, we decided to indulge in some peach cobbler for dessert, and it was an excellent choice. The cobbler was everything we had hoped for and more. The warm, sweet peaches combined with the buttery, flaky crust created a heavenly dessert that left us thoroughly satisfied.Overall, here was a delightful experience. The amazing food, coupled with the exceptional service provided by Paulette and Tina, made it a memorable visit. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply seeking a phenomenal meal, Michie Tavern is a must-visit destination. The flavors, ambiance, and hospitality all contribute to a truly remarkable dining experience.

DOMA Korean Kitchen

We visited this Korean restaurant and had an enjoyable time. The food was flavorful and delicious, although there interpretation of 'glass noodles' caught us by surpise (possible a mix-up?). The dishes were beautifully presented, and the the ambiance felt upscale, at least in my book. The service was fine/good. If I could give the one piece of advice, it would be to increase the portion sizes to match the prices they were charging. It would have been nice to have more meat and some of the side dishes were a bit skimpy. Despite that, it was an overall positive experience, and I am deducting one star for the portion sizes and the prices of the dishes.
