We had been in VA Beach for only 3 days and had some referrals from friends. The first place we had dinner was Lynnhaven Restaurant. It was a huge room with lots of diners and an 180 degree view of the coast. Unfortunately the food was basically just fried without much imagination. So the next night we decided to try... more

Happened in here without checking any reviews, and were really blown away. The decor is very cool, with a bar, lounge and large restaurant. Our server (James) was outstanding, indicating that the restaurant had recently redone their menu for the fall. Lots of wood-grilled fresh fish, some specialties with different presentations, along with steaks and other stuff (why come to... more

Waited 25 minutes for a table on a night that was not very busy. Service was slow. Food was just average. I would take my dinner dollars elsewhere. The atmosphere is nice and the bar area is a good place to watch a game or people watch, but skip the restaurant part. more

This is a mediocre restaurant with mediocre food and mediocre service. The entrées are nothing to swoon over and the service is borderline snobby. There is no question the beach-front has come along way, particularly in dinning choices and sophistication. However, this place thinks too highly of itself. I can only assume its popularity is due to the lack of... more

Awesome food just what I wanted when visiting the east coast. I ate outside among the plants and candles and absolutely loved the food and atmosphere was excellent with the beach from view. Our waiter Eric was excellent and knew just what we wanted and I highly recommend the Chesapeake Tower it had lobster, shrimp, tuna, mussels, oysters, crab legs... more

The food at Catch 31 was excellent. We sat outside but walked through the restaurant. The inside is very classy. The location is great because it's right on the ocean front and there is always music going on close by. I've heard that it is a great place to have drinks with friends. If you don't want to spend as... more

Highly recommended. Inside Hilton Hotel. One of the best raw bars I've ever had - can't speak to the other entrees or full menu. But service was A class. Moderate prices. No major complaints. Except for loud R&B music in background. more

When my husband and I decided to visit VA Beach, we started researching restaurants and I was excited to see a place like this because I love seafood. When we arrived here we were seated fairly quickly, but that was the last thing that happened quickly at all. We asked to be seated outside, thinking it would be nice since... more

Pros: Good food, great atmosphere and restaurant decor. Happy hour specials are very competitively priced. Cons: Can get crowded at times and service may decline. Know before you go: Their outside patio has live concerts on certain evenings during the summer. They do NOT take reservations during the summer days. In the winter times they set up a pit fire... more
