“The ambience was great my server Lauren did a great job serving me and explaining the process of the melting pot experience.”
Hot Pot • $$
“Yall, this place was DEAD at 530 on a Saturday and that’s a shame. You’re sleeping on an amazing restaurant. The food selection is far better than most chain hot pots, served very fast, and all great quality. We got a few apps in the AYCE and they were cooked fresh and tasty. The seafood selection is insane for $32 - crawfish, scallops, shrimp, crab… 😍 We ordered several rounds of items between the four of us. Never waited more than 2-3 minutes for food. Broth had amazing flavor too. And - as a mushroom lover - it was great to see more than just shiitake mushrooms. The cold bar is not intense, but it doesn’t need to be. All of your common sauce ingredients are here, along with various utensils. Honestly, this is a whole in a wall that you need to find before it’s too popular to get in.”
Hot Pot • $$
“Plenty of fresh and tasty food to enjoy on the grill or in the hot pot. The servers kept up with all the people’s orders and kept the food coming. Definitely recommend”

“James's knowledge was encyclopedic. It was like having the chef and sommelier at the table.
The food was excellent all around. We had:
- shrimp risotto with olives and calabrian peppers
- bao buns
- fois gras
- halibut croquettes
- cheesecake
The food was a+. No notes. No complaints. Will return when back in the area.”
Korean • $
“I love the food here, so I decided to go for my birthday. The service was horrible. Our waiter brought out cups and silverware but no water. Then he seemed to have a bit of an attitude when we asked another waiter for our water. He had no people skills whatsoever.
After we ordered, we were forgotten about. No one came back to our table until we were done and that was after my husband waved someone down. They should at least ask if we're doing okay.
I've never had an issue with the service in the past, but this was also my first time going in the evening.
Not everyone is meant to work in the service industry and some of the wait staff at choice should seek employment elsewhere. None of them showed any evidence of good customer service.”

Beer Gardens • $
“Thrilled to finally have a chance to stop by and have some pizza and check out the spot! I can’t say enough good stuff things. The vibes are amazing, kid friendly with activities for them, the pizza is absolutely something to talk about, great beer selection, friendly staff, seating inside and outside….I could keep on but you should just come by yourself and see what it’s all about! Can’t wait to come back again and again! 💛 Thank you for opening your home to us!”

“My wife loves Thai food so I stopped in to ask if a reservation was needed for Valentines Day ‘25 and I’m so glad that I did. When we arrived I was greeted by name and our table was ready. The menu offered a wide variety and the food was amazing, the servings were large and the atmosphere was very comfortable. After dinner, Anya stopped by the table to ensure that we enjoyed our meal. We enjoyed ourselves so much that the next morning I began researching how to recommend this restaurant to Triple D! Thank you William & Anya, the husband and wife who own and operate the establishment, for an actually 5 star dining experience.”

Cuban • $
“This place is such a hidden gem. It's not a fancy sit down and stare at the eclectic walls, but more of a soul powered kitchen. The plantains were perfectly cooked, ropa vieja out of this WORLD. The papa relleno stuffed with picadillo, and the spicy onion salad were delicious as well. We really couldn't choose a favorite. Worth every single penny spent, definitely check these guys out!”

“I’m from up north and had only been to a Waffle House while driving down to FL (typical NJ family tradition lol). Now that I live so close to one, I love being able to truly enjoy the atmosphere. The waitresses are always a delight and will keep you smiling. I stop by every so often during walks with my son. He has slept in here and also been in the restaurant smiling the whole time too. I love it.
Recently I got a burger with waffles on the side and when I came home, I used the waffles as a bun for the burger and omg… totally worth it. I’ll have to get a picture next time!”

“This was my first experience at a Waffle House ever, and it certainly did not disappoint. Ms. Sabrina has shown boundless energy and kindness from start to finish – love her!

“Of the 3 McDonalds locations that I go to (Tabb, Jefferson and Oyster Point, and this location), this one is the best. They have the best customer service and the play place is a huge plus. We bring the kids to run around before and after they eat. What specifically stood out to me this particular visit was Jasmine and Keisha. They were super sweet, very personable, and no matter how many times I had to go back to the counter, they greeted me with a smile each time.. I asked them for their names and made sure to let them know they were awesome, but wanted to make sure my review reflected it as well!”

“Deja served me. I don’t think it was her real job there. She is in management, yet still exuded extreme professionalism. I was in retail management for 40 years. I wish I could offer her a job. I am sure she will have the potential to exceed any challenges. Do not underestimate her leadership ability.”

“Come here all the time
The bad reviews on here r straight lies. The service is exceptional. Everybody in that establishment needs a raise. The food is top tier. The paper on the bag didn’t print right so they didn’t see I had ordered TWO mcgeiddles so it just read McGriddle and I drove away with one
Called up there and explained and they took my name down and the next morning I explained in the drive thru and they gave me a free McGriddle in place of the one I had already payed for. Since then I’ve been back 7-8 times I frickin love this McDonald’s best McDonalds ever”

American • $
“The meal was delicious and served at the appropriate temperature. The ambiance of the establishment was inviting, and the staff was courteous and attentive. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, particularly the cinnamon swirl pancakes, which were exceptionally delectable. The white cheddar grits were also quite good, and I appreciated the option to create a custom omelet. My husband ordered the French toast and an omelet, both of which he enjoyed. Unfortunately, we did not have the opportunity to sample the mimosas, but based on their appearance, I believe they would have been refreshing.”

“Food 9/10
Service 9/10
Atmosphere 10/10
Wow, this place was awesome! There is anime playing the whole time and the walls are covered in anime flags and posters. The Bao Bun comes with three and we’re good, could have been a little more full (being picky). I got the pork cutlet ramen, it was flavorful and filled with ramen and veggies. CAUTION I ended up using the spice on the table and it was really good but had a STRONG kick so be carful before you scoop a bunch like I did. I would highly recommend this place and I look forward to coming again.”

Bakery • $
“4.3⭐️
This was my new place to try this week!
I have had it saved in my google places for a long while now! But all the reviews say that because it’s all baked fresh daily, that they tend to run out earlier in the day. Today I had to be at Pep Boys in the parking lot next door at 9! So today was the day! I got there not long after 9am when they opened, so they weren’t done baking everything yet. But they did not disappoint! I got the chocolate chip & Almond cookies, an English scone, and a cream soboro. Everything was made with love and you can tell… it was so good! And they are really decently priced. I will definitely be back to try more of their baked goods. I highly recommend them to anyone else looking for a good bakery!”
Italian • $
“Had lunch here for the first time today. Met a group of old friends. The wait staff was very attentive and accommodating to all of us.

Thankyou for a great experience. 💕”

“By far, this was one of the best and most unexpected dining experiences. I have to give mad love and major high fives for a job well done. Josh, you are an incredible manager with an old soul, good vibes and it really shows that you put your heart into what you do. I cannot say how truly wonderful you and your staff are!!!! To Mikayla who made the Dirty Shirley (please forgive me if I spelled your name wrong love), you are awesome! Thank you so much my girl!!! Sadie, you have such a beautiful heart with excellent customer service and as our waitress, we truly couldn't have asked for more. Follow your dreams sweetheart! Peter, you have such a great laugh and are happy go lucky with good vibes! Jasmine, you are totally the all around good vibe with the best hair ever! Rock it!!!! And Mo.......you have the best smile, most infectious laugh, and take time to say hello. We love all of you so much and it felt more like family than it did a staff. That truly says a lot. Trust me ........I work in the customer service field of business so kudos! Y'all keep vibing and smiling!!! As Stick Figure says, "We're Putting Smiles on Faces!" 😊❤️ The food was on point! If there was something that wasn't up to par, let your waiter or waitress know. If Josh is there, you will not leave unsatisfied and if you do, your expectations were clearly way out of his control or overboard. We are surrounded by fresh seafood in this area and by far, stellar and yummy on this experience. We look forward to seeing you guys again. Much love. 🤙”

“I have been going here for the last 3 months. Love the way they fry their fish. My toddler loves it too. Says more fish when she is done with the portion I give her. They have rather large pieces of fish. Can't go wrong with Croaker, whiting, trout or flounder! Usually, prepare the fish quickly. Call in for faster service!”
Cafe • $$
“Our first time there, 5/10/24. My wife had the club sandwich and I had the Cubana. While our order was being prepared we both had a cappuccino. My wife could only eat half her sandwich. I should have also saved half of mine, I was stuffed. Way better in quantity and price than Panera. We split a piece of cinnamon streusel coffee cake and several cups of coffee. (free refills). The atmosphere was like eating in an old fashioned dinning room in a B&B. They have so much more to offer than I can put in this review. Try them out soon, I'm sure you'll be as pleased as we were.”
Chinese • $$
“The place could use some spick and span. The customer service could use a little more work. The customer service was not bad and it's not good. You will see what I'm talking about once you visit. Anyway, I ordered the vegetables with garlic sauce and it was delicious with soy sauce. The vegetable egg roll was good(I usually do not like eggrolls). One thing I like about the guy who prepared my food was that he put a napkin at the bottom of the eggroll bag so the eggroll would not be so greasy. I also ordered the general tos. This general tos is different from what I'm used to because this one is very sweet. I've never known the general tos to be sweet and this is overly sweet. He over did it. I'm not a fan of foods that are too sweet. His general tso tastes more like honey chicken. It tasted like he put the whole bag of sugar in there. So What I did was add soy sauce and it made it a little better from the little bit of soy sauce I had. Don't get me wrong, the general tso wasn't bad it's just that I don't like food that's way too sweet. I know younger people would like it because they like sweet foods like that. I would definitely return to this place and recommend it. I just would not return for the general tso.”
Steak House • $$
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Alex W. at LongHorn Steakhouse in Newport News gave me the BEST service I’ve ever had—and I’m 49 years old and dine out regularly so that says a lot. He was incredibly attentive, fast, kind, and somehow managed to anticipate my needs before I even had to ask. It’s rare to come across someone with such natural hospitality and professionalism. Alex made my entire dining experience exceptional and he made my food taste even better. Give this man a raise, he’s a gem! Thank you, Alex!
Manager Derrick was extremely nice, helpful, and very accommodating. Thanks Derrick!”

Chicken Wings • $$
“Just ordered from DoorDash. I usually expect my fries might be soggy (like wingstop) since I’m getting delivery, but they were still hot and crispy when they arrived. Ordered the Garlic Parmesan fries, they were delicious and the serving size was more than adequate. The amount of garlic sauc on the fries was a little on the small sidthat’s much better than drowning the fries and creating a soggy mess.I also ordered the boneless wings, Cajun dry rub and Nashville Honey Hot. Both flavors were awesome, the dry rub had trouble sticking to the wings, but that’s very common with boneless wings and dry rubs. The price ($9.99 for 12) is good, and the size of the wings was what I was expecting. Overall, very good, I was very satisfied, and I will be ordering from here again.”

“I love the food here, so I decided to go for my birthday. The service was horrible. Our waiter brought out cups and silverware but no water. Then he seemed to have a bit of an attitude when we asked another waiter for our water. He had no people skills whatsoever.
After we ordered, we were forgotten about. No one came back to our table until we were done and that was after my husband waved someone down. They should at least ask if we're doing okay.
I've never had an issue with the service in the past, but this was also my first time going in the evening.
Not everyone is meant to work in the service industry and some of the wait staff at choice should seek employment elsewhere. None of them showed any evidence of good customer service.”

“Jerk chicken and Rice 🔥 Brisket Moist and Melts in ya mouth 🤤 Ribs have the best seasoned bark ever tasted 🐖 🪵 🔥 Mac N Cheese is ok. Nothing crazy. Baked beans were smoky and mild. Perfect.

“I live far far away from civilization (LOL) & thought - Hey, it’s been 20 years since I’ve had Shake Shack….
OMG….with a 3-hr drive ahead of me, and eating it as I drove, all I could think is “This is the best fast food burger I’ve ever had. Would it be wrong to stop and get another one at the next big city before I cross the bridge?” 🍔 🏆.
I got the bacon, avocado, double and dipped it Kinders BBQ sauce (I carry a mini bottle with me wherever I get off just in case). 💚🥑🥓🍔🍔
I also got regular fries, which were so so …. But should have spent the five dollars on a shake instead. Next time. And NOT 20 years from now!!!”
“James's knowledge was encyclopedic. It was like having the chef and sommelier at the table.
The food was excellent all around. We had:
- shrimp risotto with olives and calabrian peppers
- bao buns
- fois gras
- halibut croquettes
- cheesecake
The food was a+. No notes. No complaints. Will return when back in the area.”
