About Orion's Roof

Orion's Roof is an upscale restaurant located on the 23rd floor of the Marriott Hotel, offering a romantic ambiance along with stunning beach views, making it an excellent choice for special occasions. The restaurant showcases unique Asian-inspired cuisine, featuring standout dishes like the branzino, Krispy Korean dessert, and sushi, which guests have discovered is a specialty of the restaurant. However, some guests have noted that certain portions may be small. The presentation of the food remains outstanding, complemented by an upscale yet welcoming atmosphere. The beach and ocean views are incredible during the day, providing a lovely setting for lunch, though at night, the ocean appears pitch dark.

The staff is attentive and friendly, with excellent service highlighted by various reviews. Guests have enjoyed dining on the terrace, appreciating the beautiful setting and great service. Specific servers, like Edo and Katie, have been praised for their knowledge and recommendations. However, some recent feedback indicates that while the atmosphere is great, the food quality has varied. For instance, the ORION'S CHICKEN PAD THAI has been described as a little dry, while the COCONUT CURRY CHICKEN SOUP was noted to be spicier than before. The GRILLED CORN ELOTE, which used to be served on the cob, is now offered as a patty with edamame, differing from the traditional preparation that guests loved in past visits.

The location provides a rare vantage point over Virginia Beach, enhanced by fire tables overlooking the boardwalk. Reservations are necessary, as Orion's Roof is worth the time for great food and service, especially during sunset. However, contacting the restaurant for special requests can be challenging at times. Parking is convenient with a 2-hour validation for the hotel garage, making it a memorable choice for celebrations and special dining experiences.

We had high expectations for this restaurant, but unfortunately, the experience fell far below what you’d expect from an establishment that promotes itself as “fine dining.”

Josie, the manager on duty, initially accommodated us by moving us from a small, awkward table that was clearly not suitable for the dinner we planned. We appreciated the change, but things quickly went downhill from there. Midway through our meal, Josie came back and asked if we were almost done...read full review

We requested an outside table, and we sat at a table with a fire pit that did not have any seating to actually eat at. We were moved inside by the manager, only to be rushed out in the middle of our dinner. There were several tables that were open next to us and it completely ruined our experience. We paid a lot of money for an awful experience, and the steak was overcooked and completely disappointing.

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...read full review
