    I always have a great time at Food For Thought. Whenever we visit, it's usually with a big family…read moregroup, and this time we had eleven people. The staff is consistently gracious and accommodating, which really sets them apart from other restaurants that seem to dread large parties. Even on a busy Friday night, we were seated in under thirty minutes. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and handled multiple tables with ease. He stayed on top of our orders and refills, and he took allergies seriously, checking with the kitchen to make sure certain dishes were safe. That level of care is always appreciated. As always, the food was excellent. I usually go for the crabcakes, but this time I tried the special, a crowned salmon, and it was so tasty. They truly do seafood well here, and the portions are always hearty. Every experience here is consistently great. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the manager even stopped by our table to check in, which was a nice touch. I always recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Williamsburg.

    I was impressed with FFT overall. Liked the theme of thought provoking sayings…read more Really enjoyed the drinks my wife and I had (Old Fashioned and a Margarita). Bread bowl was fresh and tasty. (cornbread and sweetroll). My baby back ribs were fall of the bone delicious. My wife enjoyed the chicken dish as well. It was busy and bit close seating. Waitress was attentive and friendly/helpful.

    Well our first visit to BDC and I will start out with we will be back. A solid breakfast meal for…read moreus both. The wifey really enjoyed her Today's Special. As for me the Spicy Sausage Omelette was really really good. The sausage had a bite of heat but nothing crazy. Not sure what they used but don't stop - it was that good. We both also had Sweet Teas. We were warned from the start - they are dark and REAL sweet. Which for me was perfect. As for the service: there was one lady (dam forgot her name) taking care of all the guest and she did great. When I say taking care of - I mean everything. Bussing tables, sitting folks, taking orders, and cashing out. Again she was wonderful! The place is neat just like many have said before me. Old 80's type stuff on the walls and tables. Now let me address something that some past Yelpers clearly have an issue with. There are small indications of the owners political views within the location. Nothing crazy at all and unless you really look for it you won't notice. Some past yelpers I who clearly don't agree used this to bust down their Yelp review. That's ridiculous. If the owner wants to voice their opinion- they have every right. It's their place - with their money on the line and their time vested. They clearly treated every guest wonderfully and that's all you should really focused on. So looking for a very good meal (breakfast) at a nice little joint - go on in and enjoy. I'm sure we will be back and might even shoot for the lunch menu next time.

    A true blast from the 80's past!!!…read more The nostalgia is off the charts. I didn't take any inside pics out of respect for other diners. But there are numerous 80's themed posters on the wall. Our breakfast was incredible. I had the Portuguese sausage omelette which was absolutely amazing. My wife had their pancake offering which was huge and very tasty according to her. Prices were VERY reasonable and the service was superb. If you're ever in Suffolk, come here to fill your bellies!

    My husband and I came here while traveling because he wanted a little mom-and-pop place. Perfect…read morechoice! It is a little quaint diner in the middle of downtown Petersburg, Virginia. I looked up the history on Google because I was curious about how old this diner was. This little diner has been open since 1920 and in its current location since 1939. We both ordered the country-style steak. It was excellent. Service was also very good; the waitress was very attentive to us. If we ever ever driving up this way again, I would definitely visit this place again in the future!

    Dixie has been around for a long time, it's a pretty small space but has extra seating on the patio…read moreoutside. If you during peak hours you'll have to wait for a table but it's pretty quick. The food is good. The grits and greens are made with water so it's a little more runny than I like (I like my grits made with milk). The potatoes pancakes are always good, definitely a staple. I also ordered the biscuit and gravy, I will say this was not a favorite of mine. The gravy wasn't a smooth consistency and again made with water vs milk. The eggs and bacon, are just that. I ordered my eggs over medium they came out more so over well. Overall I like the Dixie, I go back every now and then. The inside feels and looks like your typical diner. It has pictures all over the walls of its past so that's pretty cool.
