12 Best American Restaurants near Moneta

“I consider The Blackwater a SML treasure. I literally feel like Norm from cheers when I arrive. 😆 Think the world of John, and the entire staff! Nick is the bomb with the cocktails too! Great food, cocktails and atmosphere as well! Big fan ❤️“

“We ordered catering from Nora and The Farmhouse for a 20th anniversary celebration at a house on SML. Nora was so easy to work with and helped guide us in the right direction for food for 15 people (adults + kids). The quality and taste of the food was amazing and all guests raved about the charcuterie board, veggie tray (especially the ranch dipping sauce) and BBQ + fixings. Delivery was fast and the food was hot and ready to go. The little leftovers we had were still incredible heated up the next day. Would definitely recommend for your next special occasion!“

“We arrived at Moosies by boat. There was a minimum wait time. We had 7 people in the dinner part. The service was very slow. The Waitress was very nice, but they seemed to be very understaffed. So everything took alot of time. Getting drink order taken. Getting our drinks. Having the order taken and receiving our food. The food was all very food. We were completely understanding that the waitress and bar staff didn't have enough help.

Parking: As there are limited places to go here in the local area. There is limited spots. However, you cam arrive by boat.

Kid-friendliness: They were kid friendly. They had highchair. Also, they had kids menu and kids ? crayons.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes they are accessible.“

“Good service, the food is good, but not great. Very expensive for what you get. I got cube steak, mashed potatoes, green beans, and diet Mt Dew, $20.00 counting tax. Had to pay extra for rolls.“

“This may have been hands-down the best restaurant service I’ve had in southwest Virginia. Our party was in celebrating a friend’s bachelorette weekend and we felt like royalty. So much attention, care, and from every employee we were greeted and thanked for coming. The food was fantastic and came out fairly quickly too.

I wish we lived closer so we could come back more often. Well done to this team!“

“All I can say is WOW! I took my boyfriend here for Father’s Day and we are still talking about the whole experience to our friends and family. We had the sticky shrimp for our appetizer and we could’ve eaten 8 plates of them! For our main course, I had the 12oz Ribeye which was plated beautifully and cooked to perfection. He had the Bourbon glazed salmon and again, beautiful plating and the sauce was phenomenal. I asked for a glass of wine to pair with my steak and it was a perfect match. For dessert we had the Crème Brûlée and the Limoncello which just melted in your mouth. Great cocktails before and after dinner and the bar area is so cool! The owners are amazing and take such pride in everything they do. We are going back this weekend for what I’m sure will be another amazing experience. Easily one of the best meals either of us have ever had.“

“There’s only one place like THIS place and it’s Jake’s Place! Our favorite dining spot on the lake. We’ve traveled all over the world and have higher expectations for food quality. Jake’s Place is consistent 10/10. Highly recommend!“

“Most fun bar on the lake; especially Saturday night“

“😁I had a good breakfast here“

“We had a wonderful experience for dinner here. My husband had the cod sandwich which was hand breaded and had wonderful flavor. I had the sirloin and squash and zucchini and would order this again! Seasonings were delicious and the sirloin was cooked perfectly. If you haven’t given the place a try you should! Locally owned and operated.“

“Got a 2 bedroom with a great view. Met some really nice people from different areas while staying here. The unit has no carpet which is great for cleaning, just able to hear everything going on inside when trying to sleep, being there's nothing to catch the sound. Would recommend the stay.“

“The Ruby Tuesday's in Bedford has a different atmosphere and the food is very tasteful. Also their newly offered specials help as prices are steadily going up. Kudos to the new manager Mike. I would recommend this restaurant favorably.. Peggy“
