Highly recommend this restaurant! The house salad was the best salad I’d ever had. The cocktails are wonderful; the tender even accommodated my special request. The entrees were sumptuous; we got the Italian sausage pasta and the salmon. We travel through Charlottesville twice a year and dine here on our way up and back each year. It’s my favorite part of our trip. Service is excellent.
My fiancé and I had our rehearsal dinner and wedding welcome party at Orzo this past weekend and we are so happy with how perfect the entire evening went!! Even though many restaurants are experiencing staffing shortages in this end of COVID era, Orzo's staff was an A+ team that made our night seamless. The food was absolutely delicious. Best tiramisu I have ever had. We received many compliments on the food, the wine, and local beer selection. The staff was professional, friendly...read full review
Always delicious. Their passport menu always takes you away to some
Mediterranean region. European comfort food, great staff! My favorite local restaurant.

The atmosphere is fine dining with great lighting and close but not cramped seating, creating a pleasant environment for guests. The service at Orzo Kitchen & Wine Bar is friendly and attentive, enhancing the overall experience. The food is outstanding, featuring dishes such as sirloin, pork, and beef, along with a seasonal fish option. The lamb tagine is a highlight with its impressive blend of flavors, offering a truly unique experience. The beef Bolognese pasta is also highly recommended, with beautifully prepared pasta and consistently great meat in every bite. Desserts like the cardamom cake and olive oil cake from Spain are popular choices. The Moroccan dishes are a standout, and staff are happy to explain the menu to those unsure about their choices. Reservations are advised, especially for larger groups, and the meal is considered well worth the price. The high quality of food and attentive service make each visit a delightful experience.
