I've been to The Icehouse before, almost a year exactly from the date listed above for this review, and I can tell you they are consistently great. I usually go on Thursday evenings, when visiting, in the hopes of seeing Jack Becker preform, but they do have other bands that come in to play, whom are just as good. Their... More

Located on Norfolk Avenue, just a few blocks from the beach, Icehouse offers a variety of menu items that are sure to please everyone in your party. We are regulars and have enjoyed the ribs, the pork chops, the crab cake sandwich, the fajitas, the meatloaf, the hamburgers and more. The price is right, the portions generous and the staff... More

Went with family in the summer. Great food, decent prices, excellent service. Waitress went out of her way many times for us. Not great views or fancy. More

Just back from week in Virginia Beach. Had birthday dinner at Icehouse. Birthday few days earlier, but waited to celebrate just so we could eat there. Glad I waited... GREAT as always. Love the fact you can get off the "strip" and eat at more of a local establishment. Thanks Icehouse for never being disappointing and for another great birthday... More

Don't be deceived by the looks of this place. What it lacks in decor they make up in spades with food and service. Had the rib special and it was absolutely amazing! Generous portions and the Chicago style corn was the best corn on the cob I've ever had. A must place to eat when visiting. More

It had been years (decades) since I had been to the Icehouse. My daughter and I ate there tonight after an art show at the ocean front. The building has been around for 100 years and is not terribly inviting from the outside. The inside suggests that anything beyond flip-flops is over dressed. Tonight (Thurs), the special was ribs --... More

Just got back from the Icehouse and what an enjoyable dinner. We had two of the specials, the crab cakes and the fresh grouper. The food was excellent and the service, given by Erica, a new addition to the Icehouse staff, was on point. Great job to all and thanks More

On our recent vacation my Wife son and I ate here based on Trip Advisor reviews. Upon arriving at the restaurant there was no noticeable parking in front so we drove around out back and were greeted by a small parking lot and a buch on locals on the back patio/bar who you would think have never seen a tourist...
