10 Best American Restaurants near Ruckersville

“We stopped at 1pm for lunch and ordered from the brunch menu. I had the breakfast burrito with shrimp and avocado... amazing. They were generous with the shrimp and the ingredients were on point and delicious. My wife has the SouthWest salad with Salmon for her protein selection. It was vibrant with lots of Salmon. Delicious. We also ordered some cinnamon buns to go. Can't wait. Dogs are welcome on the veranda tables. Only downside was no shade and only a few tables. Large open interior. chair/table layout. Not crowded tight together. Ordering was easy. Staff were warm and professional. Overall a wonderful experience.“

“My absolute favorite local restaurant! Over the years I’ve been coming here I think I’ve tried just about everything on the menu and have never had a bad meal here! Staff is awesome and food is classic American comfort food. Very generous portions and affordable place to eat.“

“The food is fresh, with the taste of home. The service is outstanding. Servers are gracious, polite, and hard working. I love this place!“

“This place is a gem and will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We sat in the patio, surrounded by a bit of rain. The food was absolutely incredible, especially the onions rings and the bearrr special sauce. The service was equally amazing, with Kathy being particularly exceptional. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and can’t wait to return soon. Hopefully, next time, we’ll have the opportunity to stay in their lodge.“

“This was my second trip to the Lafayette Inn & Restaurant in Stanardsville. The first time was because I was roadtripping and ended up being so tired while on a roadtrip for work that I had to find a place to stay, and the second time was purposefully going out of my way to stay there again for two nights. I recommend this historic inn to everyone. The owners are welcoming. The place is so cozy and beautiful. I feel at home when I visit the Lafayette.“

“The burgers were excellent! Service was fast and friendly! Yum!!!! We live in Broadway VA and this will be our go to spot when in the area!!!!“

“Beautiful location, tasting room is modern and large but a little sterile feeling. Lots of outdoor seating. Unfortunately they were infiltrated by stink bugs and lantern flies so we sat inside to escape the bugs Unfortunately inside had a serious infestation as well. We had gnats, stink bugs and lantern flies all over us and even in a few of our glasses. Service was good but not amazing. Several times when we needed something I could see the staff in the kitchen just talking with one another. Wines were good but overpriced. I didn't think anything was outstanding. I thought the caviar was overpriced for what we got. And usually when you get good caviar they serve it in the jar with the lid. That wasn't the case here. Overall it was nice, but I've been to plenty of wineries that have had better wine, service and food. I would come back again and hopefully enjoy the outdoors in a different season.“

“Good food, good price and good service! 💯% recommend!“

“Awesome staff and food. Can’t wait to come back.“

“After a long drive from NJ to VA it was great to have a relaxing dinner. I had the Root Burger; it was delicious. My husband devoured the fish & chips and my daughter was very pleased that grilled cheese was offered on the kids menu. Kudos to our server Wendy M. who was very professional, attentive, and kind.“
