What a great place to celebrate out anniversary. The atmosphere and food were excellent. The Elk was divine as was the Alaskan Halibut. The overall service was great, but a special shout-out to Sarah who helped make the evening extra special. Can't wait to come back

Another stellar meal at the Rockefeller room! The food was magnificent, starting with the amuse-bouche and bread plate, fried green tomatoes, oysters Rockefeller (of course!), strip steak, and the divine 5 oz. Wagyu filet, which was probably the best beef I've ever eaten. Our server, along with the rest of the attentive staff, found the perfect balance between friendly and quietly professional. He steered me to a perfect (not-too-sweet) mocktail and helped me select a relatively affordable bottle of Bordeaux from the extensive wine list. And although we regretfully declined dessert, he brought a small surprise of chocolate truffles and macarons for hubby's birthday, as well as some tiny lemon tartlets in a golden box to take home. A delightful evening!

Great food and ambience was wonderful . We chose wine paring which simply did not work - appetiser arrived - no wine ! Wine eventually arrived after my wife had finished her appetiser - as this dish was warm she had to commence eating - Similar happened with main course Very strange ! Everything else was excellent

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Rockefellers; the tasting menu/dining experience we originally booked was cancelled at the last minute, and the staff at Rockefellers went out of their way to provide us with an experience that was as close as possible to our original plans. Our meal was outstanding, and the staff were wonderful. We can highly recommend Rockefellers!
Della
Elegant dining room and presentation, and very good service with an abundance of waiter staff. Rockefellers is great for a very special occasion but too pricy for the typical weekend dinner out.
Lauren
Overpriced, and for all the hype about their steaks, my $95 Ribeye almost required a saw to cut. Certainly not "prime". Oysters "Rockefeller" were an embarrassment to the name.
John
Very nice dinner here! Excellent service, menu had reasonable range ( for adult taste) in a lovely room. Great evening.
Kenneth
Beautifully decorated room with sophistication but that is where it ends. Poor service, salty marginally prepared foods and a very limited wine by the glass menu.
Michael
Elegant and sophisticated dining. Perfect for special occasions or to elevate a night out.
Lee
It is always a treat to dine here. Staff is outstanding, ambiance is extra special with white table clothes, fresh flowers, and soft piano music. Chef is accommodating to vegetarians but emphasis is definitely on seafood, steaks and other meats.
Amazingly wonderful ambience that included a talented soloist with accompanying pianist, absolutely exceptional service, delicious food, and beautiful setting. A memorable experience.

It was our last night of vacation in Williamsburg It was a great overall experience. The price fixed dinner for $65pp was a bargain. The fried green tomatoes, the oysters Rockefeller yummy first courses. , the marscapone rissoto with whole lobster out of shell blew our 34 yr old son away. The Alaska halibut coated in brioche was perfection. I love roasted peppers and stemmed artichokes too. The mini desserts were good because after rich meal you only need a bite. Baked Alaska and a lemon tart. But above all else the furniture, the fabric designs in lobby and friendly waitress . Only dussappojntment was coffee was too strong . If we lived in VA every special occasion we would return.
Opentable Diner
The restaurant and the service are excellent. However, we made a $100.00 deposit just to get the reservation and did not receive the credit on our bill nor was the deposit credited back to our account. This is very disappointing. The restaurant said Open Table would give us the credit and Open Table said the restaurant will give us the credit, neither did. We wont be back.

We celebrated our 42nd Anniversary. The experience was first rate from start to finish. We had fish, fillet. Augratin Potatoes and a nice bottle of wine. They even brought us a desert plate on the house for our anniversary. For a special quiet dinner it was perfect.
Brian
Fair amount of confusion by wait staff. Food was good but everything on my plate was just barely warm. For the prices charged I had expected much better
