“Donte has an atmosphere full of vibrancy and positive energy. As soon as I sat down, I was glad to know we were well token care of. If you get a chance to have Donte as a server it will be well worth it.”
“One of the best restaurants we’ve experienced on any vacation! A really great atmosphere, all the staff are happy and outgoing, great music, and such fast service! 11/10 I would definitely recommend!!”
“As a New Englander, i don't venture into the seafood world in VA Beach. A friend highly recommended Blue, and to say we were mind blown would be an understatement. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was amazing. Sweetly greeted by who I am assuming is a manager or the owner. We opted to sit at the bar, and i will seriously come anytime Bridgette is behind the bar. The upbeat personality, the sweet conversation, and the knowledge was very impressive. I enjoy going to dinner and getting the whole experience, and Blues did not disappoint. We will be back 💗”
“Just had a very delicious brunch after church at Driftwood Kitchen on Pacific Avenue! A convenient bonus is they have a parking lot available which we appreciate! Hubs had the salmon Benedict with hash which he thoroughly enjoyed along with a Spicy Margarita, yum! Today's special was red, white & blue pancakes with a side so l ordered that with homemade hash as my side, probably the best hash l've had! The pancakes were on point with the white chocolate chips & fresh blueberries inside and fresh strawberries on top! I would definitely order the same dish again, perfection! The bloody Mary's & mimosas were $5 & tasty! Our server & bar tender, Kat H. was very helpful & kind! We certainly want to go back! Happy Hour 3-6pm, closed Mondays,on Sundays they close at 3pm.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“My husband and I went here for lunch. We have eaten here twice before and really liked it. I am Celiac and got the gluten-free crust both times in the past. This time I decided to to try the regular crust because at Victoria's they import their flour from Italy and I heard that other Celiac's who eat here eat the regular crust and do not have issues. Well, I am here to tell you that I did not have one issue after eating the regular crust! Not any of the normal symptoms that I usually have after even eating the tiniest amount of gluten.
The crust was amazing, so light! I highly recommend Victoria's and if you are Celiac, try the regular crust. You will not regret it!”
“The food tasted amazing and the service was equally as great! The waitress was friendly and very service oriented; you can tell she loves what she does. Definitely recommend the garlic knots!”

“Awesome place to visit. Outside seating with the best views of the beach. The service and food were top notch. Will be back!”

“the ladies was so so sweet! we’re not from here and wanted to try something different and we looked up food and they showed up and i don’t regret nothing! the burger was very well seasoned as well as the fries and the ranch was amazing as well! if you’re wanting great tasting food with flavor this is definitely the spot! 10/10 recommend to anybody!”
“Heirloom is always a delight, and tonight, as we celebrated our wedding anniversary, was no exception! The watermelon gazpacho amuse-bouche was a sweet start to the meal, followed by Oysters on the Half shell (a personal favorite), and the appetizer special of Peach Burrata salad was lovely. The true star, however, had to be the Black Sea Bass, which was butterflied and grilled, served over rice and vegetables. The sauce had a gentle smokiness to it that built to a perfect lingering flavor that complimented the gentle grilling style extremely well! I was lucky to be one of the first privileged to try it. Crème brûlée for dessert was the perfect completion to the meal. We left feeling very happy, and VERY full! Thank you to your incredible team, who take such wonderful care of us, as well as every customer dining tonight, and every night. Hats off to Heirloom!”
“First time here. All the staff greeted with a smile and was so nice. We got the Jerk egg rolls, chicken Philly egg rolls and the parmesan chicken eggrolls to eat some there and take with us. I was a little hesitant to get the Parmesan chicken rolls but I have to say they were my favorite. Oh and we got the Mac and cheese stuffed wings and they were delicious as well. Thanks J & K Styles for a great experience. When ever we’re back in Virginia we will be back.”

It was my first time there as well as majority of the girls and everything was wonderful from the drinks to the food we will be back.👍”
“Aldo’s is my absolute favorite restaurant! I am a very picky eater. My husband, (boyfriend at the time) , took me to Aldo’s on one of our first dates in 1990. If he was trying to impress me..it worked! Jim, the owner, has been there since the beginning and he is amazing! He has treated us like gold for 34 years now! He has sent wine and dessert over on our anniversary, compliments of the restaurant! He always asks us how everything was and of course, it’s always perfect! I have never had an issue. The atmosphere is incredible, very romantic and relaxing. There is live piano and the wait staff are top notch. Jim only hires the best! They have authentic Italian food that has so much flavor and there is nothing like it! I highly recommend Aldo’s for fine dining and just an overall fabulous experience!”
“This is a must eat for those looking for a cozy atmosphere and delicious Italian food! The pasta is all hand made and cooked perfectly! We loved it so much we returned within a week to treat our son while he was in town and have already made our Valentine’s Day reservation. The husband and wife owners are a delightful couple and you will not be disappointed!”
“I am in awe tonight with the above and beyond service I received. I ordered online through an app I've never used. Not only did they help to correct MY mistake but one of the owners even offered to drive the food to me himself. These two establishments are run and owned by the most hardworking and thoughtful men you will ever meet. You can see it in the way they treat the staff as family. The delicious foods that are curated so perfectly..my favorites are the scotch eggs, gnocchi- flavor for days, my goodness the french toast, the calamari!!! Honestly, I haven't had a meal there that wasn't good. The inside of each restaurant that they created with help from their own families are inviting and cozy. The perfect places for brunch or dinner. If you haven't ate at Rustic Spoon yet you're missing out. 💖”
“I am a member of the wine club here. The food is excellent and the wine is awesome ! Tonight the service was top notch! Highly recommend.”

“Great waffle house location, went there late night after my very pregnant God daughter had a false alarm. She was and is always STARVING! They guys took out order and it was only a very few minutes until it was steaming hot and in front of us, Great Job Guys!! 5 stars all day long!”
“This is some of the best Mexican Food I have ever eaten. The staff were friendly, and the owner went out of her way to accommodate my 6-year-old grandson's wishes on his birthday. Then, they brought him a big desert to share and sang Happy Birthday to him. I do not live in Va. Beach, but if I did, I would never go anywhere else for Mexican Food. The next time that I visit my grandson, I will definitely eat at El Parian.”
“Just left the Pembroke IHOP and the staff and service was great. My server was Luckee and he is always so polite. The manager Christina is super friendly and always comes by to check on us when we visit. Me and my friends always love her smile and nails! My steak tips and eggs were cooked perfectly. Will continue to come in when I'm in the area. Awesome staff!!”
“Came up to the window and ordered a quarter pounder, large fries, and a pup cup for my dog. So he says that they will make something. So I go to the window to pay and they see Aurora and take my card. I asked if the pup cup was on there and she said they had something different. So now me and Aurora go to pick up our food. So I grabbed the bag with the quarter pounder and fries and she gives me another bag. So I look and see chocolate chip cookies. I went to turn back and tell her that she wouldn't be able to eat them and in her hand she had a cup of whip cream just for Aurora! I feel bad for not having much time to thank them and when I looked back at the recipe it only had the fries and burger. I found it really sweet that they gave us free cookies and a pup cup. Aurora really enjoyed her pup cup and we look forward to coming back soon!”
“Mobile ordered n picked up curb side. The employee that brought the food was really a great guy. I think we had him go back in to bring the things we needed/wanted and not one time gave attitude. He smiled n got it. It was a nice. I'm sorry to have him go back n forth many times and VERY thankful.

“Wonderful hidden gem in VB central to oceanfront and town center. Delicious European desserts that are light, airy and unusual with wonderful unique flavor combinations. So many are too pretty to eat but I find a way. lol. Sandwiches, soups and salads along with a few other choices for those looking for a light lunch. Try the beet salad, you won’t be sorry! Best bakery in Hampton roads.”

“I am so glad that my wife and I went here to Park Lane Tavern tonight. We have been so close so many times for that past five years and have never gone. We definitely experienced a great place… our drinks were perfect, as well as our food!!!… and our waiter Douglas was the best. Jim was amazing as well!!! We will be going back soon and very soon❤️❤️!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Literally the best ice cream I've had in 39 years of life. No joke! The staff and owner are masters of customer service and created a welcoming environment for our party of 5 (3 kids under 10). 1000% recommend to any and everyone who even mentions ice cream within my ear shot. ❤”

“Nara is 10000/10 amazing! The staff is incredibly attentive, the attention to detail in the food is clear and they have such unique dishes that we love trying when we go! We love coming here and it holds a special meaning for us: my fiancé and I actually met here on our first date five years ago today, and got engaged here last March! They celebrated with us and it was so sweet! I can’t recommend this place enough if you want the best sushi around (try the sushi nachos!) and the best atmosphere and staff. Thank you guys for being so great! <3”

“The food was on point! The portions were huge and the flavors hit the spot! The service very fast and attentive, yet we never felt rushed. Great atmosphere as well with a nice interior and even better exterior seating on a nice day. We went as a larger group for a work gathering and they had no problem taking care of all of us! Definitely check this place out! 👍

Great service and the homemade ice cream and shakes is everything!! Make sure you try the burnswick stew .... I ordered it as a side and left with a quart ? ? ?”
“We travel over an hour from the Outer Banks to Las Palmas 3. We were leaving VA Beach and I looked up Mexican restaurants reviews and found this restaurant. It happen to be Cinco Mayo and have been coming here ever since. The moment you walk in the door you have a friendly upbeat hostess ready to seat you. From the moment you walk in it is clear these guys have there stuff together Work well with each other. They are happy, friendly upbeat and organized crew. The food has never disappointed me. Prices are perfect too. We enjoy driving out here because it's worth it and we visit often. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!”
“Absolutely love grabbing sushi here. Every time I walk in the door I'm greeted with a very friendly staff and the food is phenomenal always. Highly recommend top notch place.”

Fine Dining
“Went for Thanksgiving. The traditional turkey centric option was enjoyed by everyone but me! Instead, I went for the menu and was treated to a wonderful full rack of lamb, asparagus she-crab soup, and pumpkin cheesecake. Everything was perfect and the very meaty lamb chops were cooked and seasoned exquisitely.”

Cheap Eats
“We walked in and immediately were greeted by friendly staff. We ordered the lamb burger with fries and the big fat Greek burger with a side Greek salad. Our waitress Amy served us pita and hummus before our meal. Both meals were delicious and we can’t wait to return to try more amazing meals.”
“This is the best bakery in the area! There's always a wide variety of delicious, fresh goodies waiting to be eaten. Want something savory? They have that too!! Sammiches, mac and cheese, all entirely vegan and made in house! The atmosphere is very welcoming and the staff are wonderful. Everyone is so nice and knowledgeable about the products.”
“Having resided in Virginia Beach and now living in the Chicago west suburbs, I have always been fond of this establishment. The customer service is absolutely second to none, featuring a welcoming staff and an expanding array of food products. Their popularity has continued to grow, partly due to media exposure. While my recent visit was pleasant, I observed that their pandesal tasted slightly different. The signature flavor that I have loved for years seemed to be missing. Has Angie's introduced any recent changes to their ingredients? I have several questions, but I shall refrain from asking further. Nonetheless, I highly recommend Angie's Bakery.”
“We are a dance team visiting from out of town and Planet Pizza was very gracious to host us. With nearly 100 mouths to feed, they welcomed us in, smiled and served everyone quickly! The food was delicious and the staff were amazing. Thank you to all of the staff for making this part of our trip fun and easy for us!”
“I live in Virginia Beach, but I grew up in central, PA (Hershey, PA which is right next to Lancaster county). My mother grew up learning how to cook/bake in the tradition of those of that area. With that said, my bar is high. I’m picky…. very picky. I promise you this. Heritage Amish Bake Shoppe is the “real deal”. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Rachel it was so nice to meet you! Congrats on your wedding coming up! Brooke is also awesome! I met the owner Tom tonight as well. EVERYONE is amazing, service is excellent, and food is excellent!”
“The food is always perfect-- not just good, perfect. Every time my fiancé and I eat here it is a 10/10 experience. The service is also top notch-- the servers, hosts, hostesses, and bartenders are friendly, helpful, and fun. This is, without a doubt, one of the best restaurants in Hampton Roads. We love Baladi! ❤️”
“The food is excellent and our server Kendall was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and provided excellent service. The whole staff seemed friendly.”
“I have known Lexi - who is a part of management at LO - for over a decade now. She is one of the few persons in VB that I know I can have a respectful conversation with about our values and morals, and mental health. Lexi has always demonstrated herself to be an advocate for all and I am confident that she creates an atmosphere of respect and non-discrimination at LO. Plus, their food is tasty!”
“This was my first time ever having Indian Food and it was incredible. The owners were super accommodating and funny. The vibe of the restaurant was on point, classic India Music with fun decor and freshly drawn pictures around the venue. The food was also all good fresh, well season, and well made. It took a little bit to get here but it was delicious. I had the Punjabi Chicken Tikki Hot with Rice and Garlic Naan. I am still full several hours later. Incredible food”
“Great prices and chill atmosphere. All the entrees were tempting but quite fun indulging in a tapas selection!”
“Really enjoyed this restaurant. Service, atmosphere and most of the food was very good. We were looking forward to the baked wings but they were quite soggy. When we mentioned it to the bartender, she had cook new wings They were still not enjoyable for us. We Will Definitely frequent this establishment again. The food overall is definitely very good.”
“Hello. They have the best shrimp pasta I have ever had in my life!!! Totally delicious! Highly recommend it! 🍜❤️😊”
“This place alone would bring me back to Virginia Beach! The crab legs were the very best we have ever had. The steamer bag was amazing. And the carrots! Great service, perfect views, airy, music at perfect level. We will be back!”
“Awesome everything - appies, beer, donuts, music, service…all excellent! A+ per usual!!!”
“I had a great time and set my husband up as a prime suspect! I will definitely be back!!

“We had a wonderful family dinner at Sorella's this evening for a party of 10. The service was wonderful. We were greated promptly and brought right to our table even though our full party wadn't arrived yet. Mozzerella balls and brussell sprouts were so tasty and Emily L made some wonderful recommendations on entree choices. The radiatore was to die for.”
“Celebrated my daughter’s 30th Birthday with friends and family today and we all agreed we will definitely revisit. Being from New York my taste buds are those that seek quality delectable food that’s warming to the mouth and the stomach. They did not disappoint. The staff food and overall ambiance was so appealing and we tasted almost everything. So delicious. Thank you for a beautiful and enjoyable meal and a beautiful environment 💕”
“Best she crab soup ever! A trip from upstate New York to enjoy your soup - bar none - it’s the best.”
“Wonderful dinner food was delicious and service was phenomenal”
“Food delicious, atmosphere romantic and elegant, service impeccable. I had the cutest smiliest waitress ever. She was a short, white female, with beautiful long blond hair in a high ponytail and a white chef’s coat. She’s at the Virginia Beach location and worked the evening of 12.8.24. I hope she gets special recognition for her dedication. Go enjoy this amazing spot!”
“Today we drove out from NC to visit with Santa and Mrs Claus at Mahi's. Great Food, large portions, drinks were great and the wait staff was great. We enjoyed our time with Santa and Mrs. Claus. We were able to take our own photos and we purchased professional digital photos. Thanks”
“This is a big YES for great food, good service and atmosphere. If you love seafood and eating in the beauty of a Marina with all of the boats and the water, you're gonna love it here. They have everything you need and want when UT comes to dinning and a store to purchase swag and other memorabilia. You can also purchase raw food from the store.”
“Tonight's French onion and oyster stew were two of the most fantastic culinary dishes of my life. Make a better decision in your life, and dine in at Eat.”
“THANK YOU FOR HELPING CELEBRATE OUR SONS BIRTHDAY EVERYTHING WAS EXCELLENT”
“We loved our service here! The waitress was incredibly helpfulC friendly and patient with our larger party. She was able to recommend items from the brunch menu, she gave us her favorite foods to try and she was great at describing the foods so we could make a good decision.
The ambiance is nicely decorated to match the vibe of the menu and its name being a craft house. The art in the bathroom was not just art but an ode to food information as it was packed with facts and beautiful art.
We had an about a 30 min wait but it went fast and the food and service did not disappoint. Everyone enjoyed their foods, we tried a lot of items from the brunch menu simply because we know this place will switch the options up.
Mimosa flight: favorite was the pineapple, least favorite was the orange juice.
The Big A** Pretzel was like a bagel consistency and even had like everything bagel seasoning. The cheese sauce served with it was incredibly delicious.
The Bone Marrow was excellent- the toasted bread was perfect and the Rockefeller oysters were cooked perfectly.
Some of the other items not pictured were more from the brunch menu and we all agree it was a 5/5 experience and would love to return when in town.

“You can't go wrong when eating at Captain George's in OBX!! Wow, oh, wow! The food is hot and fresh, the food is always quickly replenished, the restaurant is clean, and the staff are always friendly and attentive. Oh and it's 5star approved by the little ones, which is always hard to do! Will definitely be back soon!”
“Went on a Sunday night and figured they would be busy because it was Valentines weekend. There was a long line when they opened. Had buffalo cauliflower and garlic fries. The garlic fries were everything. The pizza my husband and I shared was very good too. We had apple crisp for dessert which was also good. The only negative was the grapefruit hot honey margarita was a bit salty.”
“Went here for my Birthday. Party of five. Excellent treatment, Excellent food and atmosphere! Soft crab to die for! Everyone loved what they ordered. Had a great Birthday dinner. Bravo Tempt! Coming back for the soft crab.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“This place is a vibe! Service was amazing but the food was even better! The menu is full of nostalgia! From the Never ending story (cocktail) to the Uncle Buck(crudo),the Terminator(tataki),Indiana Jon’s (roll) and the goonies(roll). This place is a must try! 10/10 highly recommended”
“A trip to any beach is not complete without a crab boil lunch/dinner. After reading the reviews Shaking Crab was my pick and it did not disappoint!! Our waitress was wonderful, the crab legs were very good sized, and the taste of the entire boil was even better!! My family decided this was the best crab boil we’ve ever had. Even the popcorn they brought us when we sat down was delicious.”
“I’ve always had a good time when I honor the Chesapeake location. I plan to check out the VA Beach location really soon. Great beer, great staff and fun events!!”
“Great location second time being there and still love the food and service. The staff was as awesome as the first time 🙏🏾.”
“First time going and I would 100% recommend! To start off the customer service was so friendly and helpful! Then the food to top it off was above expectations, definitely going again!”
“The most attentive and kind manager and staff ever! I have multiple food allergies and the manager and our waitress went above and beyond to not only ensure I had a safe meal, but also that I had options. Toni is the most phenomenal waitress ever! As if the food and service wasn't enough, certain nights the lounge has entertainment and we had a blast. I can't recommend Quemar enough.”
“The service, omg was amazing, I applaud all the servers, spot on!! The food was delicious and portions were big!! The price is sooooo affordable! I will definitely be back!!”
“If you are looking for a place to sit back and wine and dine…this is the place. Bartender service is awesome and management with Mike or Ryan is superb.”
“The sashimi was amazing; we loved the salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and snapper!! Nigiri was super as well; loved the unagi! The salad with fresh ginger dressing was delicious too! Will definitely be back !!”
“I visit here every time I come to VA Beach. Great food, amazing drinks, and the staff treats you like family! shout out to Charlie and Also Mark for making it a great time while I was there!”
“One of the best sushi places. The food was amazing the atmosphere was very welcoming and comforting. Highly recommend for a couples date or a group dinner. Try the Vanilla tempura ice cream, it’s amazing!”
“Christian the bartender was great made the experience five stars. Burata burger lacked seasoning but definitely palatable. Otjer options definitely thrived before
. Will be back.”
“I didn’t know what to expect- I certainly didn’t expect the presentation of food we received! So amazing! Portions were huge! Everything was delicious! The waitresses were so kind (I had 3 come to my table to check on us) Seriously amazing!!!!”
“Great atmosphere, good food, and fantastic service! Our server, Holland, was very accommodating, patient, and attentive. She kept our bellies full, our drinks topped off, and was helping out all over. Very impressive:)”
“This is the best place to go if you are in Sandbridge! Everyone is so nice. Service was fast. Everyone loved everything they got (2 adults and 4 kids). Would prefer to go here more than once during a stay vs another seafood place!”
“Ok. Here we go!! I stopped into this place to watch a football game and have a bite to eat with a cold beer after driving 9 hours into town. I got way more than I ever expected!! New friends who treated me like one of them! Everyone there was so kind and friendly - from the hostesses, bartenders and other patrons. I ended up spending a few hours each evening there. As a single woman, traveling alone, I felt so comfortable and welcomed. This was probably the best part of my trip!! I just got home and miss everyone already!! Thank you ALL for the hospitality and I can’t wait to see yall again!! 🫶🏼”
“Best food in Hampton roads.
*Add Edit- 6 years after this review and after I ate there tonight.
With high cost and decline in portion and quality this place has to be the best place in Hampton roads a locally owned restaurant that gives you what you pay for. I've never had a bad dish here. I can't explain how important it is to be consistent and just plain good. I've eaten a lot of food in the 757. And I always try to eat at local not franchise restaurants. But it is what it is and this place is it.”
“Wonderful food, helpful service, 4-top next to us was a bit too loud for my husband and me to hear each other. Probably not the normal situation. Food and service were excellent!”
“Stopped here on a whim as we were leaving Virginia Beach and we were so glad we did. Loved the food. We had the shrimp and grits and our son had the pancakes. That was the best shrimp and grits my husband and I have had . Our 17 year old said his pancakes were the best he had ever had. And if you want coffee, they have the BEST!!!! Atmosphere is amazing. All the staff were friendly, and very helpful. Get there early before the doughnuts sell out. Purchased doughnuts for the road and let me say, you will not be disappointed. We will definitely be going back when we return in July. Everyone needs to try this place. It is so worth it!!!!”
“This is my new favorite restaurant! The staff is so friendly, and even though it’s a bit upscale inside, they were still really nice to all of our kids and treated them very well.”
“The Captain and the Wookie approve. This place is a hidden gem, tucked behind alderan. This place makes the Mos Eisley Cantina look like a swap meet. Impressive brews, great atmosphere, and the staff is very friendly. Only just a couple clicks away from the oceanfront, in a district where you couldn’t feel any safer. You only catch a place like this every few light years!”
“Overall experience was awesome! I love that they have options that you can't get anywhere else!I also love how they have Zaru Soba. It's pretty rare to see a spot here that has it and I even told them how happy I am they have it on their menu. I'm glad they're close by. They also have Kirin beer which was refreshing. Their salmon belly is really fatty and buttery.”
“Cool little local place. Wouldn't recommend for a "fancy date". But awesome for a fun night out with friends/family. The beer selection, tacos and brisket are GREAT! They've also got a pool table. The bartender/host/waiter/cashier (seemed to be all the same guy when we were there) was REALLY on his game! As newcomers to the area we will definitely be back! THANKS for a really fun night 😁”
“We had my daughters birthday party here and the staff was amazing and made her feel so special!”
“Very good sushi and ramen! We loved our lunch and the staff was great!!”
“Stopped in for the first time today. Gotta say, I love the vibe and creativity put into the details. The bathroom decor was worth the visit. (Haha...no spoilers. Just go see for yourself.) You know when owners care about the small things, they're doing the big things right too!
Had a pale ale, Oktoberfest marzen, and Scottish Red Ale. All we're on point but the Red Ale absolutely scratched an itch I've had for a while!
Staff and crowd was just amazing. Walking in, I immediately felt like a regular.
We will definitely be back...”
“Celebrated my husband's 63rd birthday tonight. Everything was beyond perfect! Drinks, Appetizers, best steak I've ever had and the most sinfully delicious dessert! And our server Kelly was spot on too. Definitely would recommend a night out here!”
“A great place for sushi as well as cooked items. Plenty of selections whether you want sushi, sashimi, or rolls. All are made to order and the preparation of the fish is how it's supposed to be (if you're knowledgeable about sushi, it's not just about how fresh a fish is because some prep requires curing or marinading, which obviously means at least a day or more before the fish is served). The presentations are beautiful and everything tasted great. If you're not a fan of sushi (again, if you're knowledgeable and are turned off by the 'raw' nature, by US standards it's barely as fresh as that of other countries where they're literally taking the fish out of a fish tank, alive, and butchering it and preparing right then and there) then there are items from the kitchen like Teriyaki or Tempura or even Katsu. The staff are polite and professional. They are following current respiratory hygiene guidelines. Recommended.”
“Evan came with everything needed for a super boil🦀🍤 food was top notch. Service was perfect. Do this for a large party in a rental house and you will love it!”
“Nice atmosphere, wonderful service, and delightfully delicious ? I definitely recommend!!!!”
“I'm in Virginia Beach for work and I have to say the food was absolutely amazing . I went twice this week . But, the customer service is far better than the food !! My server yesterday EMILY WAS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST I'VE EVER HAD AT A RESTAURANT !! John the bartender on Monday 10/21 and the hostess ( I forgot her name black younger woman with a long weave ) . Were absolutely phenomenal ! They offered great suggestions for food and drinks . I wanted to leave and try another restaurant with would food but, those two customer service made me stay . All 3 are a gem that you don't find anymore in customer service . No matter how great the food maybe at a restaurant customer service is the most important part . They exceeded my expectations ! I went into work and told my coworkers that live in Virginia Beach they must try this place out ! The chicken, mac n cheese , and bisque are by the far the best !! Next time I'm in VA I WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK !!”
“We went for the happy hour. The vibe is great. Food was amazing. Great whiskey selection. Service was great at first and then we felt like we were forgotten. The bus boy circled the tables frequently and was on top of everything but the waitress mostly hung out at the bar talking to others. I would still go back and maybe get better service.”
“I recommend attending Brunch on Sundays. The menu is amazing and not overwhelming. Their drink menu for mimosa's is also refreshing and delicious. Ms. Tonya is the Bar tender and she is a wonderful host when it comes to prepping the drinks and making sure the garnishes for the mimosas are fresh. The entire staff makes you feel welcomed when you walk in the door. My reservation was at 1pm I got there a little early and they still seated me at the bar as I requested. The food (Oxtail Hash) WAS DELICIOUS and I say that with full confidence the oxtail meat is marinated and you can taste the seasonings with the mix of potatoes and eggs. I even had the grits on the side and they were hot and delicious. Food was brought out in a timely manner. Their prices are good for me because of the quality and the overall experience. LOVED IT! Will be returning 🥰”

“I met a family member for lunch yesterday and Julie W. waited on us. She was very nice and kind, checking on us without being intrusive. The food was also good (especially the "ultimate chocolate cake", lol), but I wanted to commend Julie W. for the great service, it was appreciated!!”
“Our dining experience was amazing! The customer service we experienced from the moment we walked in the door was outstanding! The employees make you feel so welcomed even on busy day! Our food delicious and came out rather quickly inspite of the restaurant being full. We will return! Thank you to your entire staff for making our Saturday morning breakfast wonderful!”
“I really miss this place . I moved out of state and can't find any place like it in Illinois. Everyone is wonderful and food is great. I'm pretty sure after going there for like 6 years almost every day I've tried everything on the menu. Breakfast wash my favorite especially potatoe pancakes. Miss you guys. See ya next time I'm in town.”
“I have been coming here for quite some time now and there has not been a time that I have eaten here and have had a BAD meal. Never has that happened. All the staff are very professional and courteous toward all clients that eat here. It is composed of a Wonderful Greek family doing what they know how to do. Prepare food in the best way they know how to. Fresh and delicious each and every time. I am getting ready to move to the Richmond area, I will miss going here a lot. The staff is the most on point of any people I have seen. Very polite, great personalities, exceedingly friendly to anyone who enters the establishment. Honestly, I will miss seeing all of you there until I return one day for a visit. May you all have a wonderful year and a beautiful Holiday Season this and every Year. Love to all and do not forget to keep making that one dish I always get when I come in. Maybe you can name it after me. HA Your friend for life. Art Schultz (save me seat #6)”
“Mermaids in Virginia Beach is a lot of fun!! Went in there the other night with some friends and the girls were so friendly, they made us feel right at home. They were amazing to watch! I was told they are getting ready for the Pole and Floor show competition on Saturday, May 18th. I think that's worth going to just from what I saw. The specials were fantastic and the menu was great for either a late night snack or a quick lunch. The music was good, kept everyone upbeat and the security was visible, but not over imposing, and that made everyone comfortable. Can't wait to go back and drag a few more friends out! Of course I would feel comfortable walking in there alone for a drink and a snack :)”
“This is without a doubt one of the best family Mexican restaurants in Virginia. I'm from the West Coast and lived on the best Mexican food available where the ladies made corn tortillas by hand in front of you. While no Mexican restaurant does that here on the East Coast, you won't believe how good the food is at the Shore Drive, Tequila Jalisco. (Don't waste your time going to the other Tequila Jalisco's as it all depends on the chief.) The best chilies relleno I've ever eaten and each one of their steak dishes are unbelievably tasty, or go for the fajitas or one of their big fat burritos and be sure to treat yourself to their home made guacamole with chunks of avocado, all with a well made margarita. It took me a long time to find a decent Mexican restaurant here in Virginia Beach, but I've now found a home with friendly servers and a warm atmosphere. Life can be so good...”
“We made reservations(easily) for a 6:30 Anniversary dinner specifically on a Thursday night to take advantage of the "SPECIAL", 2 16oz king cut prime ribs W/roasted asparagus and potatoes au gratin casserole, a bottle of wine(our choices were shiraz or rose), and a dessert(our choices were KEY LIME PIE, CARROT CAKE, LEMON BLUEBERRY TIRAMISU, BROWNIE SUNDAY, or RED VELVET CAKE)........all for $70! The service from Janine and Jeff was fast, friendly and knowledgeable and the food!*+ perfection from "Goose" in the kitchen. After dinner, my wife and I spoke with GM Korey Johnson and got a tour of the facilities where we were further impressed with the cigar lounge and the VIP room. Needless to say, we'll be back again and again and I suggest the same for all of YOU that rely on the customer reviews as we do!! TY”

“This has got to be on of the best experiences I have had in a long time. I went Saturday night and let me tell you the staff, waiter and food was all phenomenal. I recommend if you can to try this place out. I couldn’t have asked for better. Orion’s roof you blew it out the water !! I could go on and on but I feel like others should find out for themselves. Thank you for an amazing experience and delicious dinner. That steak was melt away in your mouth. Unbelievable. I will be back!”
“3/11/25 - I can't remember the last time I came here but I went recently and enjoyed it. The place was pretty busy and surprised to see how big the place really is. The table provides a bag of peanuts and you also get rolls with cinnamon butter that are so delicious. I feel the pricing is much cheaper than other places for steak. I wasn't too fond of my dish which was the country fried sirloin. I got the veggie and Caesar salad for my sides. Caesar salad was dressed really good. I wasn't too impressed with the sirloin being fried and the veggies didn't have much seasoning. The gravy was also okay. I did enjoy someone else's dish, which was the t-bone steak and the sweet potato as a side. The t-bone was sauced with onions and had great flavor. My husband steak didn't come out right twice and the third time they finally got it. They were nice to compt his meal due to the delayed. We also got the shrimp appetizer which was really good. Our server was super nice and great too. Again I feel you can't beat the price and the food is pretty decent.”
“Had a fabulous meal! My mom and I are gluten free and there were so many delicious options. Definitely try the buffalo fried oysters and red crab dip. We sat at the bar and Whitney offered fantastic service. She had great menu suggestions.
Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options.”
“This is my new favorite restaurant in Virginia Beach. Food is so flavorful with a lot of healthy options, with a broad assortment on appetizers. Their mushroom and goat cheese pizza was on point! We also ordered the Mediterranean Nachos, and they were phenomenal. We went to celebrate a birthday and got a sweet birthday card and free dessert. The service was exceptional. And the waterfront view is spectacular. I can't wait to go back.”
“Our experience at the restaurant was mostly positive. The service was excellent—our server was courteous, allowing us to enjoy our time without feeling rushed. The food was flavorful and well-prepared, and the drinks were top-notch. The pricing felt completely justified given the quality of both the cuisine and the overall experience. However, I can't give a full five-star rating due to a couple of unsettling moments. Upon arrival, there was noticeable tension between the gentleman at the hostess stand and the staff, which created an uncomfortable first impression. Additionally, as we were preparing to leave, an employee abruptly stormed into the kitchen, yelling loudly as though a serious altercation had occurred. Considering the state of the world today, the situation felt alarming and slightly tainted an otherwise enjoyable visit.”
“Heirloom is always a delight, and tonight, as we celebrated our wedding anniversary, was no exception! The watermelon gazpacho amuse-bouche was a sweet start to the meal, followed by Oysters on the Half shell (a personal favorite), and the appetizer special of Peach Burrata salad was lovely. The true star, however, had to be the Black Sea Bass, which was butterflied and grilled, served over rice and vegetables. The sauce had a gentle smokiness to it that built to a perfect lingering flavor that complimented the gentle grilling style extremely well! I was lucky to be one of the first privileged to try it. Crème brûlée for dessert was the perfect completion to the meal. We left feeling very happy, and VERY full! Thank you to your incredible team, who take such wonderful care of us, as well as every customer dining tonight, and every night. Hats off to Heirloom!”
