17 Best Cocktail Bars in Norfolk

“Beautiful atmosphere and great service. I gave 4 instead of 5 stars because the ribeye steak was not good. It was served cut in multiple pieces and swimming in the “Sauce au Poivre.” Any flavor of the steak was completely lost due to the soup it was in.Other members of my party had better luck with their main course selection. The Halibut was devine. Ranks with some of the best meals I’ve ever had. The scallops were perfection. The chef blended flavors SO well. I also recommend the duck. It is served with vegetables that complement the meat so well.The desserts were fantastic- very complex flavors and well done. Order the chocolate martini! You won’t regret it.Overall a great place for a special occasion.“

“Everything! This place has the best food, and the most welcoming atmosphere!“

“Attended soft opening today. Ate at the bar. Food was great. Menu is filled with a great variety. Staff was well trained. Looking forward to trying more Menu items.“

“Omg where do I start!!! Me and my wife came Friday the 16th!! We didn’t have a reservation and I promise you I suggest making one especially on I house guess the weekend. We decided to sit at the bar instead of a window seat I also let the host know if someone cancels or if a Hi top come available please let us know. After 2 cocktails in which was amazing we got lucky got a seat! All you could see was the kitchen door flying open lol as the waitresses was bringing dishes I mean we only do fine dining when we eat out but I honestly wasn’t expecting something at this caliber seriously, you know we eat alot of places and sometimes the food just doesn’t be seasoned the way you expected especially if its plated nicely. Because it’s true we eat with our eyes first! But let me tell you!!! Goddd KISS THE CHEF!! The Owner, Owners whoever lol because every aspect was on point from service to atmosphere it really was unbelievable! I felt like I was in a major city!! Miami especially because I’ve had the oxtail lasagna there so I advised my wife to get that and I got the 37oz Tomahawk for 2 top with crab meat lol I love a good steak seriously. We didn’t get any appetizers because I wanted to save my appetite and my mental was in my pocket lol if you know what I mean but a $100 for a tomahawk with roasted potatoes it was no way I wasn’t gonna have that for dinner and some left for breakfast with cheese eggs in the morning lol Now when my steak came out! I ordered medium in which I expected to see pink because medium requires pink and who orders a well done steak anyway??? I mean it was cooked and seasoned to perfection with roasted potatoes and onions OMG I’M GOING BACK THERE!! Soon!! I taste my wife oxtail lasagna because she just kept saying how much better it tasted here lol so I did and she wasn’t exaggerating I mean the pasta sauce was sweet with garlic Omg how did they make a sauce that good and it had tomato chunks in it not the big crazy chunks but just perfect everything was PERFECT THIS PLACE DESERVES A MICHELIN⭐️ if thats possible in this area Ive ate in numerous countries because of my military background but this place is one for the books!!“

“The food and service here is phenomenal!!!!!!!!!! Been here twice with my husband—bartender is on point ( of course), and our server (both times), Brandice, was amazing. We eat ourselves stupid here, it’s so good. Highly recommend this place as a date destination.“

“Food was delicious cute little place. But very expensive for the amount of food you get I paid about $60 for my 3 items which was a bread pudding with two pieces of bacon and ice cream, quiche and salad, and a toast with salmon that I ordered to go. Not big portions for it to cost so much but it was good.“

“Discovered this place on yelp while looking for libations in the area… it is perfect! Low-key & casual; Even at its busiest the noise level was pleasant. There is an ample selection of tasty food and even better drinks. The staff was friendly & helpful- addressing every inquiry while choosing a mezcal. They have the best tequila selection I’ve come across so far (many additive free options). I’ve already recommended it to anyone who will listen ? and I will definitely return as well.“

“honestly 10/10 experience, even on opening night! the lemon chicken was sooo delicious. we are so excited to have a new spot in the neighborhood! the staff/owners/management seems so welcoming and accepting to all different types of people, which is another great sign.“

“06/10/05I had a blast at this bar. Go during a car race. They give drinks for crashes. I asked for a menu in this place, they gave me a pizza shop that would drop off. The balls on these people.So much fun. Be respectful and you will have fun.“

“This place is the bomb! We had a family event and Caroline should be voted not only the manager of the month, but of the year! Her wait staff gave us the attention and served us like we have never been served in the past from any other establishment! The food was great and served on time! Again, kudos to manager Caroline and her wait staff for a positive and pleasant experience!“

“I have been twice now & the vibes and food were on point both times! 2 for 2! The service is quick & they will let you & your friend/partner sit and talk well after your meal is done. They do not rush you out at all. Definitely recommend!“

“This was our first time at the Harbor Club and it was an enjoyable evening. Thank you so much Mr. Dreyfus! I'm so thankful that my husband works for a company that is owned by a man that is an intelligent cutting edge entrepreneur who truly cares for not only the communities he serves, but also the employees who serves them. He treated his employees to a beautiful evening that included two complimentary drink tickets and heavy hors'devours that included Caesar Salad, homemade macaroni and cheese, a prime rib station, homemade cornbread, yeast rolls, dinner rolls, a huge l-shaped vegetable, fruit, and cheese station that was a rainbow of color and just gorgeous, elegant miniature chicken sandwiches which tasted even better than they looked, and a gorgeous desert bar filled with homemade iced sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and snickerdoodle cookies. When it was time to go boxes were provided and everyone was encouraged to take dessert home with them. Mr. Dreyfus made a short speech thanking his employees. He is a humble and eloquent entrepreneur.“

“2nd time there. Nice open area outside with fire pit. Wasn't lit this visit. Drinks were good. Had tacos last time that were delicious. This time just appetizers. Crab balls were recommended and tried. Very tasty. Crab fries had a spicy sauce in the mix that made you want more with each bite.Definitely going back again.“

“staff is amazing! Made a reservation for a birthday party. They made us a custom menu and drink in honor of the Birthday! food was so good, and the upscale atmosphere was second to none. We will be renting out their upstairs bar/lounge for upcoming birthday! Recommend Mike and Laura for amazing service! 6 stars out of 5.“

“We came in right after opening on Taco Tuesday! We were greeted by Nick. He is amazing. Nick was positive and upbeat. He acted as our Host, Server, and Bar Tender. He deserves a raise. Our food was fresh and delicious. As was our drinks. The atmosphere of the restaurant was appealing. The only reason why I didn’t leave 5 stars is bc of the restroom. Being as though we came right at opening. The restroom was disgusting. I can only assume that I wasn’t cleaned the night before. However it looked as though it hadn’t been cleaned before ever! So there’s that.“

“Amazing dinner. Great price.“
