I ordered a corned beef breakfast sandwich on rye bread which came with one side. I got the breakfast potatoes which were nice and crisp on the outside, soft on the inside. This place is really no frills but it's absolutely delicious and felt very homey. The servers were really kind and made sure that our glasses were always full. I could instantly tell why the place was packed, you can truly feel the sense of community in this place. Overall, this is a lovely spot to stop in for some breakfast or lunch that is decently priced and yummy.

My only complaints which are very minimal -- #1: there was fresh squeezed OJ listed on the menu but is no longer served and I'm a sucker for fresh squeezed so it immediately grabbed my attention; and #2: I wish I'd known I could do half grits and potatoes - I should've asked, but I overheard a local/regular customer ask for that after I'd already gotten my plate of food in front of me. But 100% satisfied with the grits, so no complaints with what I ordered and ate, just would've liked to try the potatoes, too!

Super impressed with this one!…read more When you walk in, it seriously feels like you stepped into a 90s movie diner, and I'm here for it! They were voted Best Burger in Newport News, so my expectations were pretty high. They absolutely did NOT disappoint. I ordered a plain cheeseburger with grilled onions and bacon, along with the chili cheese fries. BEST MEAL I'VE HAD IN A WHILE! The burger was fresh, juicy, and exactly what I was craving. Everything came out super fast and tasted fresh. You order at the counter when you walk in, and if you're dining in, they bring your food out to you. Super easy and efficient. It does get crowded though. They also had a little market where they sell ice cream, pie, jerky's, snacks. I really wanted to try their soft serve too, but by the time we finished eating, there was a HUGE line, so I'm kind of sad I didn't get to try it. Guess that just means I have to come back!

Second Street was fine, but probably not a place we'd seek out again. It had more of a…read morechain-restaurant feel than we were looking for. We had hoped to sit outside, but were told there was a large group on the patio and they weren't sure whether any tables were available, so we ended up inside. I had the Main Street Burger with provolone and fries. It was good, but nothing particularly memorable. My dining partner had the veggie burger and found it a bit dry. The Pinot Noir was passable, but not especially good. Service was good and everything was perfectly pleasant--this just wasn't quite our kind of place, especially with so many interesting local options in the area.

Not sure how to describe the vibe- clean modern feel with a touch of cozy here and there - like the sofa when u first walk in. Pros: Cool sofa for waiting on a table or maybe cocktails? Krista was our server and she was delightful. Friendly and helpful - let us know her favorites and got our order in quickly since we couldn't take too long. Nice cocktail selection and even better range for apps and mains. Loved the ahi tuna flatbread!! Our favorite of the apps. Could have ordered for dinner and left very happy since it cost less too lol. Seared scallops were delicious- the sauce and fresh corn were amazing. Shrimp and grits had an impressive depth of flavor and the spinach and tomatoes were a unique addition. The black bass was also very good. Cons Prices on the higher side even for a fancy restaurant in Richmond. Didn't love the complimentary bread and butter: I appreciated trying to make the butter something unique- going for savory and sweet the white chocolate and herbs but the white chocolate didn't really work for us as an ingredient. Felt like the bread should've been crusty for butter like this and not the soft rolls they served. Didn't care for the pork belly appetizer. Instead of being crispy, it was just tough.

I kinda understand why, but then again, if you're gonna have a business like this) I kinda don't. Ribs and jalapeños smoked sausage were not available. I was told that for ribs, you should contact them 24 hours in advance. This was a deal-breaker almost, 'cause we really wanted to do the ribs, and there was no indication that some items might not be available. The food and appetizers came out at the same time, so our table was loaded, and we could not eat fast enough before it got cold. I shared my displeasure with my server, but she just gave me the "deer in the headlights." look. The drinks were weak and expensive. There are a few arcade games and plenty of space. Service is ok, but not great. The food was ok; some items were dry. The fries were hot, and nothing special about the service. Cool place to hang out, watch games, and drink beer, but it's just ok.

Waited over an hour for wings and potato skins but you gotta give it to them everyone pitches in. Bouncer checked on my order 3 times and bagged it up for me.

To my shock I ordered a dry Vodka martini and it was perfect which never happens on the Peninsula. They gave me a lemon twist for the glass rind nice big thick olives on fancy toothpicks and a very nice martini glass not just any Ole glass and it tasted like a martini and not spiked water.
