This small, intimate location tucked away at the north end of the virginia beach oceanfront, has truly become a local fave. The award-winning eclectic menu, extensive wine list and casual atmosphere is underscored by a friendly and attentive staff. Deemed

My wife actually discovered this eating venue through her Google phone search engine. The criteria she used was restaurants nearby to our location. Several options came up and we opted for the one that was the shortest walking distance from our hotel. We arrived shortly before they opened and once the doors opened we were warmly welcomed. We were asked if we had made reservations and after stating we had not, were promptly led towards the outdoor dining area.As we made our way through the restaurantâs interior seating area it was noticeable that the ambiance was very subdued and low lit which accentuate the understated sophistication. The décor was stylish and modern and denoted the level of service and authentic chef prepared culinary creations. Our outdoor seating area was fine with the only distraction being the parking lot was outside the fenced in area. Undeterred we looked forward to this new Virginia Beach dining experience. Our server was attentive and very forthcoming regarding his appetizer, drink, and entree recommendations. We initially ordered drinks and began considering not only his recommendations but the offerings listed on the menu. He returned with our drinks, asked if we had any questions then took our appetizer and entree orders.While waiting for our dinner selections we were entertained by a family several tables away that included a young couple with a young impetuous child and grandparents/in-laws. My wife and I both agreed that this dining venue probably wouldnât be the first choice with little ones (young children/grandchildren). It also reminded us when we had young children and the limited fine dining options available to effectively manage child damage control. The meatballs with fresh mozzarella (fresh Hereford ground beef with herbs and spices finished with tomato ragout) appetizer was exceptional and gave us a preview of what was yet to come. Refreshing our drinks (and continuing to watch the young couple with the impulsive child wrecking havoc) our entrées arrived. My wife ordered the NY Strip Steak and Fries (14oz Mills family farm NY Strip, pomme frites (German for French Fries) tossed with bacon lardons, pickles, white cheddar curds, black truffle, zin gravy, and served with house) and I ordered the grilled tuna âbulgolgiâ leek and kimchi fried rice, wakame and cucumber salad, with the house miso sabayon. The presentation was exceptional, the meal expertly prepared and the culinary experience marvelous.In the end the food, atmosphere, and service was worth the upscale prices given this level of wonderfully prepared cuisine and attentive service.

The food was well prepared (we share surf an d turf). The food was well prepared but the steak was skimpy. The lobster was ample. Sides were minimal, ample, but not much to choose from. I think this is a local price for reunions and and such. It was quiet but there were not many customers. Perhaps this restaurant is one's second choice? With so many restaurants nearby, Pier 31 needs to up their game. I did notice that in general, get ready to pay a lot for dinner regardless of restaurant - prices are going up.I enjoyed the dining experience but it was somewhat sad in a way. The company must make their money in Summer. No-one there in Fall. Still, i nearby, go for it!I am sorry to hear that your experience with us fell a little flat. I would love to hear more about the rest of your dining experience and get some feedback to share with our culinary team. You can reach me via email at [email protected] look forward to hearing from you.Thank you,Emily Van RavesteinRestaurant [email protected](757) 213-3472

I've been here several times and each time I wonder why I go back. I've never had a meal that I felt "this was great, I want to have this again." I took my sister and my son there last night, 6 Mar, had the chicken penne pasta, my son had the shrimp and scallop risotto. Strippers in Norfolk has better shrimp and scallops. Like I said, nothing that jumped out and said come back and have this again. Not to mention the prices are way to high. No happy hour specials unless you are in the bar area. So on this night, we had to wear our coats while eating because the heat was out and they couldn't get an HVAC person in until the next day. So why not close for the night or or let your customers know before seating them? If I wanted to wear my coat while eating my high class gourmet dinner I would have sat outside. No discounts offered for our uncomfortable experience, only a guarantee our food would be hot when it came out. I'm just glad I had a gift certificate and didn't have to pay much out of my pocket for this experience. Won't be going back, much better places to go.
