Loved the gluten free Shrimp and Grits at this popular restaurant. Great service, fast delivery but you have to go early if you don't want to wait.

I have been raving about this place since we left. The food was outstanding. Get the shrimp boat appetizer but warning it will ruin you for shrimp items for life. Husband loved the ahi tuna and raved about it all vacation. The scallops wrapped in bacon blew my mind. We wish they had a branch in charlotte we would take... More

I wish we had found this restaurant earlier during our stay in Williamsburg. While having dinner across the street I noticed a sign that they were open for breakfast during the weekends. So the next morning on our way home we stopped. What a wonderful experience. The food was fresh and the menu was very interesting. I chose the Sir... More

This restaurant is the perfect combination of great food, service and value. My husband and I have dined here several times(our daughter is a student at William and Mary) and the food is consistently excellent! Everything is made fresh from the luscious mango salsa over my perfectly seasoned jerk chicken to the homey pot roast my husband enjoyed. The menu... More

A real popular place in Williamsburg. Ive been here a few times when in the area. Food is good. A bit pricey for the type of food, but good.

This restaurant was close to our hotel, we were hungry, why not give it a shot. The décor was quite interesting, the service was exemplary and the food was just wonderful. I had a roasted red pepper soup that I swear was the best I've ever had. Can't remember what else we had but we loved it so much we... More

Everything was Excellent: selections, service, entrees, every aspect of a delightful restaurant meal!!! And, we did so appreciate the veggie/gluten-free options. AND, OMT: the servers & staff were very friendly, polite, & courteous to every person, incl the children. This was another highlight of our time in Williamsburg! And our group had 15 people, incl 7 kiddos!!!
