“We LOVE this place! We usually go to the Norfolk location and this was our first time trying it in Virginia Beach, we loved it just as much! Both locations offer amazing atmosphere, but VA beach has better parking. I highly recommend eating here, it's easy to veganize different meals and the prices are very reasonable, especially with it being such a nice place with fresh and thoughtful food“

“I have been attending for 2 years and 300 classes and I can honestly say it has been a rewarding experience. From the ladies behind the desk to our fabulous manager Heidi to all of our teachers I have never had a bad experience. Everyone is kind, helpful and happy to see you when you come in!😀 Not only do I exercise but I have also made many friends. It is a win-win!“

“Great location second time being there and still love the food and service. The staff was as awesome as the first time 🙏🏾.“

“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!“

“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“

“10 ladies met without reservations today for lunch at Forbidden Palace. The hostess / waitress was very accommodating seating our group in the party room. She was efficient in taking orders and getting everyone's meals out quickly. I don't remember her name, UT she is a blond woman who is a long time employee.“

“Ate here last night and it was so good! Something for everyone with lots of vegan choices and an additional small vegan menu. Great service as well. The portions were super, totally a great value. We’ll be back!“

“Great beef lumpia!“

“I took my elderly father there for dinner and everyone was so accommodating and helpful. Ashley one of the managers personally saw to it that we had a wonderful experience. Our meals were exactly how we ordered them and Joy the bartender made sure I had the perfect cocktail. The pork belly is my absolute favorite.“

“My review is primary for the Chicken noodles soup. I think it is better than Panera's by far . Nice perfectly cooked noodles and grilled chicken.
Update. 5/12/2025
The food is still great but for some reason they decided to use wide bowl as they do for the pasta dishes. This makes the soup cold before you can finish it. Bad change idea.“

“great for that after dinner treat!! I love all their Skinny8 flavors!!! Also love they are in our neighborhood!!“

“I honestly don't know what else to say except that this place has fantastic service and the food is always heavenly. They did remove one of my favorite pizzas when changing the menu, but I'm always open to try new things and they didn't seize to amaze me“

“Sunnyside was in walking distance to our hotel. We opted for Sunnyside rather than the expensive hotel breakfast. Sasha waited on us and was so patient with our very (very!) indecisive kiddos. She was also very attentive to our beverage refills and was very welcoming and friendly. We ordered French toast combos and waffle combos. Everything was very good and we all left with very full bellies! Cant wait to come back!“

“Super nice staff! Great food as always. Oh my dayum“

“This place is great. The potions are huge. The veggies and sauce are fresh and delicious. Very friendly staff. 10 % off for all teachers and first responders.“

“This is our favorite Rita’s location. We are frequent customers! With the power outages last night, Danni did an outstanding job with keeping things under control while she had a huge line. We love coming here! ❤️🍦“

“Spent Saturday morning here, it was our third visit to this location. Celebrating my 50th birthday the staff were wonderful especially the hostess that sang happy birthday to me. My only complaint is that this location seems to have a terrible issue with gnats and flies. My only conclusion is that they’re getting in from the porch. We have had to deal with these insects on all three visits. Due to this we will not be returning to this location.“

“I make it a point to try the croissants everywhere I go, and they have the best croissants in the 757 area. They use very high quality ingredients and you can taste it. I have become a regular and my family always loves when I show up with a box of goodies from Macaron Tart to share.“

“If you're looking for a taste sensation that will make your taste buds do the hula, look no further! This beach spot did NOT disappoint. I mean, who knew you could find culinary gold right by the waves? First up, the Chicken Shawarma. This dish had my mouth doing a happy dance. The chicken was seasoned to perfection, and each bite was like a flavor explosion. If this shawarma had a fan club, I'd be the president. Now, let's talk about the Smoky Bacon Burger Stack. Holy moly, this burger is a tower of deliciousness. The bacon was smoky and crispy, and the burger was cooked just right. It was like a burger from a dream, if dreams were made of bacon and happiness. The flavors of the meat were absolutely incredible. I'm talking "write home to mom about it" kind of incredible. If you haven't tried this place yet, you're seriously missing out on some beachside magic. ??? ---“
