“amazing food. vegetarian friendly. wonderful outdoor seating for people watching. one of the best places in fredericksburg.“

“Food is great and wait staff is awesome. Not large party friendly. Had a party of 10 and was told we could only be seen if we were all on one check. We were coming from church and the party consisted of 5 couples. We had been there before with no issues getting separate checks. Was told it was a weekend policy implemented 3 months ago. We have been there within the last month and was not told this. No bad experiences prior. Assuming the manager just did not want to accommodate us.“

“Delicious , huge portions . Very homey!“

“Came in for my first time had a great time just relaxing on a hot day ! Megan was great and very personable ! Thank you !“

“Stopped in randomly and we enjoyed everything! Hubs had the burger and an Old Fashioned. I had the seasonal drink, Sweater Weather, and the veggie quesadilla. Both were delicious!!! If you are in the area, stop in!“

“I have been going to this restaurant for two years now and have yet to have a bad meal. The food always comes quickly. It’s always good home-cooked food. The roast beef open face sandwich was so tender it was incredible. So if you’re looking for a good home-cooked meal, breakfast lunch and some dinner items, this is the place to go. And fantastic coffee along with a smiling staff. Super super customer service oriented.“

“We really enjoyed our visit. The staff were very friendly and professional. Our orders came out within 5 or 10 minutes. We all ordered something different and everyone was impressed. The ingredients were top notch and the bread was awesome. We visited at around 1130 on a weekday. The restaurant was not very busy.“

“First time here at Durango’s , came in for lunch and had a great time , brandy the bartender was welcoming and her service was amazing ! Very much a local hangout ! Food was perfectly cooked! Great job to the Durangos team and thank you !“

“Had dinner and drinks at the Fredericksburg location Adriana, Jayla, and Taylor the bartenders were so awesome. Such a great vibe had dinner at Firebirds the night before totally underwhelming the bartenders at Park Lane worked in unison and absolutely friendly and engaging with the customers. Those three should actually own the bar. I will definitely be back next time. I travel to Fredericksburg.“

“Our experience last night At Firebirds was terrific. We were a party of 6 and the staff was very welcoming and accommodating. Our server was Monte and he was an excellent server, suggested great selections, answered questions and kept our glasses filled without asking. The food as great, each person was very satisfied with their choices. We will definitely be returning.“

“This was a WOW for us. We had been on the road since 8 a.m. we still have another 4 hours to go but needed to stop to eat.

Melanie welcomed us and was our waitress. For a minute there... I thought she was literally doing everything in the entire restaurant. When we came in it was right before everything was about to get crazy and I watched her handle everything that was happening like she was juggling fire blindfolded. She didn't miss a thing....

Then .... It got better. As our server she was on point with everything. I ordered a glass of wine so fast my husband never even saw it.

The food... I had the steak salad and my husband had the sirloin tip appetizer with the Cesar Salad. Both steaks came out perfectly cooked to perfection. To be honest... We weren't expecting that. This was a road stop for us. The service and food were SO amazing... This has now become a destination stop for us.

PS... The special motorcycle parking was a big draw for us. We can't ride any more but it feels good to be around family.“

Catfish was excellent as well as the potato salad, collard greens, and mac & cheese. All were excellent. Went there Friday night amd it was so good we decided to come back on Saturday. The cook was great and friendly.“

“Had a great breakfast traveling back to NC. The manager Alex was very attentive and made our visit extra special. We appreciated the service , our meals were perfect. The staff all work so hard and were so pleasant! We will make it a point to stop when we travel back to upstate NY. Thank you all for what you do!“

“My favorite place in the Fredericksburg area. I can’t say enough about this place. They always take care of me and I’m now a regular. This place has slots, pool tables, darts, live music, allllll of the sports on literally 100+ TVs and their food hits the spot. Fairest price in town as as bang for your buck as they have a nice special every day. It’s never a dull moment here as there is are always people here having a good time. The staff and management are good people and like I said, they’ll take care of you.“

“What a cute and sexy place to have a scrumptious meal! Went for a date and the restaurant and meal were on point! 😜 My date got the salmon and I ordered the hen. Both were mouthwatering delicious!! Presentation was gorgeous, the mood was right. Even the drinks were great! Saw some amazing meals coming out to the other patrons. I cannot wait to come back!“

“My husband and I went for dinner on 3/31/22 Our server was Vironique. It was the best service we have had in a long time. The food was piping hot which is always an issue with me since I was in the service industry for years. Totally recommend this place!!!“

“We had J'Angelas cater my husband's 40th birthday party. The food was a big hit! Even my mom who makes the best pupusas liked Ms Angela's pupusas and had no negative comments. We did a taco bar with chicken, steak and lengua. Everything was awesome and authentic.“

“First time there....Miss Jordan was an excellent hostess! The service was great, the ribs were amazing! My only complaint would be the food is a bit to salty.“

“My family and I came to eat here on Christmas Day and the vibes and food were beyond amazing! I definitely give them a 10/10 rating. Thank you everyone who was working today.

“Biggest pancake I’ve ever seen! Leftovers go home in a pizza box! Great staff! Family owned/ran. A fam fave !“

“A friend and I had the pleasure of popping into Sprelly today and we had such a lovely experience. We were immediately greeted by Casey, one of the owners, and she treated us to samples of several of their delicious flavors. Casey was absolutely a delight to talk to and extremely genuine. She answered questions without hesitation and shared unique ideas about how to use the different products. In a day and age where great customer service seems to be waning, it was refreshing to have such a nice interaction. I highly recommend a visit to Sprelly. I can’t wait to try the four peanut butters I purchased.“

“Really enjoyed the food and laid back atmosphere. Very cool place.“

“Fish and grill really changed, since I last visited, some 5 years ago. The parking lot is kind of crowded- I didn't expect that to change in a strip zoned for businesses. But it's clean. They would do well to have one garbage can outside of the establishment but the sidewalk is narrow. The signage is visible. The restaurant is very open, airy and immaculate. We arrived, intending to eat in the car because we have a toddler with special needs: he's in keg casts. The restaurant had a separate area in the front, near the door that accommodated our needs. We are COVID conscious and wanted to be away from others. The food was fantastic. We had catfish meals and sides that were delicious, hot and arrived in a timely manner. My grandson was having a horrible time sitting and eating: he is in thigh high casts and he was not happy that he couldn't sit by himself or eat properly. He's very active and independent. While sitting in his mom's lap, he urinated through his diaper and down her leg. While we were ready to go back to the car to take everything "to go." Our server, Tiffany, came to the rescue. She went to the car and gave us a diaper he could fit and pants he could wear. I've never seen such a kind gesture at a restaurant. She is a gem. He's newly casted, so we had to buy new diapers (he's potty training but has to go back a few steps to a regular diaper. Tiffany saved the afternoon. I recommend Dish and Grill for the food (it's exemplary), for the ambiance and for kind people like Tiffany; people that really take pride in themselves and pass kindness to others. Thank you, Tiffany I hope and Fish and Grill recognizes your excellence!“

“Love love love! We go here at least once a month. Absolutely love the surf and turf with seasoned butter and the devils pass dip. Service has been great nearly every time we have gone. There can be a significant wait if you go during peak times but it is worth it“

“Brittany is awesome and colorful!“

“I'm new in town. The people are laid back and easygoing. It's very low-key and you'll find the folks are genuine. This is definitely not DC people (that's my scene), but it's a small town, and that's the vibe you get here.“

“J Brian’s has great food, knowledgeable and attentive staff, and super awesome specials. Trivia nights on Mondays at 8 and the live concerts are always a blast too. Can’t recommend it enough- Stop by and give it a try!“

“This place is a hidden gem! It was the very best pork Lo Mein i have had in all the places in Fredericksburg! The noodles had good amount of sauce and were not too dry like other places lo mein is! It had good amount of vegetables it was delicious with the crispy egg roll! I went for the first time yesterday and talked to the staff were so nice talking to me about their hometown in China I was asking about. I must now try all there other dishes!

The customer service was top-notch. We will definitely use them again and again and highly recommend them for all your catering needs!“

“Our Thanksgiving dinner was excellent and the service was outstanding! Another great experience at Brock's!!! Thank you!!“

“Wonderful food and worth the price. The only sad thing was they changed the carrot cake. The cake use to be the highlight for me and many of my friends.“
