duck and mac was spectacuar
Alyssa K.

Loved this place. Mac n cheese best I ever had. Cocktails are fantastic. I'm going to model my Christmas cocktails after theirs. Terrific service in a cozy warm place. Recommend!!

Crab Dip
Andrew D.

We had dinner here for the 3rd time in as many months and enjoyed every moment. We were seated in the back room which is a nice, quiet area. Our waitress, Jen, was attentive, knowledgeable and personable. We got the crab dip to start and it was very good. Focaccia bread is also excellent. We ordered the Filet, rare, and the Tavern Burger, medium rare, both with fries as our side. The steak was tender and cooked perfectly. The Burger actually came out medium well. We brought it to the attention of Hudson, who was checking on tables, he agreed and took it back. We found out later he is the general manager. They made a new burger in a fairly short amount of time and this time it was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Jen and Hudson checked on us and thanked us for letting them know. We bumped into friends while we were there who were also commented how this was one of their favorite places. We will absolutely go back soon and recommend to all we see! Great work being done here! #deitzeatz (insta)

Filet and Mac & cheese
Cindi W.

Came here for dinner with my husband while in town. We had a reservation so we were seated promptly. The ambiance was very nice and romantic. Our waitress was very nice. I tried the soup off the day salmon & cream cheese bisque. For entrees I got the ribeye with asparagus and my husband got the filet mignon with mac & cheese. The steaks were seasoned and cooked perfectly. My husband didn't like the mac & cheese so he was able to switch it for asparagus which was cooked perfectly as well. My husband got an old fashion and I tried the blood and sand cocktail. The drinks were good. My husband really enjoyed his old fashion. Definitely a great spot for date night!!

My husband moved to Staunton mid June. We've visited CHT several times..usually we just get a few apps and drinks. Both have been solid. We started with the Fried VA Oysters and an Old Fashion and the Big Apple. All were great! We were given a "amuse-bouche" as alittle something extra for my birthday sent by the chef. It was everything I love about fall in a bite! Thank you Chef! Also, I swear the playlist was as if I had chosen it: Amy Winehouse, Dusty Springfield, Tracy Chapman... really set a nice tone. Being my birthday I chose CHT as my birthday dinner. Having Bariatric surgery 5+ years ago, we usually don't do entrees and if we do we split them and usually end up with take home.. hence why we get mainly apps. Anywho, special occasions we get separate meals. Someone had recommended the meatloaf - it did not disappoint, this is not your diner meatloaf. Flavorful, moist - I actually was preferring it over the fillet Mignon! We ended on splitting the carrot cake. We took a few bites and took it home. Amazing meal.

Absolutely delightful dinner. Very simplistic in its ambience not overly fancy in its menu but delicious with its farm to table offerings. The mac & cheese is to die for as is the crème fraîche mashed potatoes. But it's the focaccia bread with the sea salt butter is what I'm dreaming about now at 1:30 in the morning. Dress code was business casual, but I saw people wearing shorts which was odd on a Saturday night in one of Staunton's nicer restaurants Parking can be slightly difficult on a weekend evening so you may need to park in the Frederick House lot or between North Augusta and Lewis Streets median near the bank. Prices are a bit higher than average, for the area, but is a nice treat for a special occasion. Service was wonderful and server was super friendly and helpful with suggestions.

Filet with mashed potatoes- add asparagus and scallops
Rachel S.

Went for anniversary dinner because the chop house in Harrisonburg has been a special place to us. It did not disappoint. Such a quaint, cute restaurant, small size but makes the vibes good. Both service and the food was excellent. It's nice to have this option closer to home. We'll definitely be back!

My wife and I were driving to North Carolina and wanted a halfway stop, so we chose Staunton,…read moreVirginia based on a restaurant for dinner. Zynodoa was our choice. Good call! We stopped in Thursday February 5, 2026. The cozy space, complete with a locally painted on the wall, gives it a warm, welcoming feel. In speaking with the matrade we learned the name of the restaurant comes from the Native American word that has become Shenandoah. After 20 years in business it's clear this place has deep local roots. The staff was friendly and attentive. Kyle, our waiter, did a great job and worked seamlessly with his teammates to make the experience memorable. We started with cocktails -- my wife had the Sage Advice and I had a classic Manhattan. Proper cocktails for sure! The crème brûléed cornbread and sweet potato bisque were standout starters. Probably could have stopped eating after those starters...For mains, my wife loved the pork loin and I enjoyed the pan-seared trout. We finished with the banana mousse, which was absolutely amazing! Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Highly recommend if you're passing through Staunton. definitely worth the stop.

My friend and I came here for dinner Saturday night. They book up fast for reservations so…read morerecommend reserving in advance. We didn't have reservations but we were able to sit at the bar. It's a small restaurant so probably why they book up fast but it's nice inside. The bar is nice too. Staff were friendly. We did the crème brûlée cornbread for starters and then I got the ribs which were amazing. They came with fried rice which was good too. My friend got the beet salad, scallops, brussel sprouts, and spaghetti dish. All was delicious as well.

My partner and I came for dinner last night (a Tuesday). We arrived around 5:45 pm and were…read morepromptly seated. The restaurant was not very busy, but there was a pleasant vibe. The inside reminds me of a Chili's or Ruby Tuesday, but a bit darker. I think it's a nice atmosphere, appropriate for date night, a group, a family, etc. Our server (who has worked here for 3 years) was friendly and efficient. To start, we ordered a bowl of yesterday's soup special (She crab) and a small order of boiled shrimp. The soup was excellent, creamy, and with small pieces of crab throughout. The shrimp (six in the small order) were prepared well and came with a tangy cocktail sauce. The server brought over a loaf of their complimentary bread, which is actually three breads together in a single loaf. The bread was good (I preferred the dark loaf part) and came with a peach butter. We were told that the butters change periodically. The butter had pieces of peach in it (!) and we enjoyed the novelty. Our server mentioned that they also have a pistachio butter and maple butter. Yum. I ordered a salad with the balsamic vinaigrette dressing on the side. The salad itself was good - fresh, with crisp lettuce, tomato, cucumber, apple, almond pieces, etc. Then there was the dressing. Although I mixed the salad dressing in the cup before tasting it, when I did taste it, it was almost all oil with no discernible vinegar or other flavor. I kept stirring and tasting and nothing. So I abandoned the dressing. For entrees, my partner ordered the charbroiled salmon in herb butter with a side of broccoli. The salmon was prepared well and very tasty. I ordered the mahi-mahi, with the sun-dried tomato butter sauce on the side. The mahi-mahi was well prepared and tasty on its own. Honestly, I tasted the sun-dried tomato butter sauce and it was essentially whipped butter. I didn't think it added anything to the entree so I didn't use it. The potato came with butter and sour cream on the side. The potato was very good. Although we were full and not planning on dessert, the server came over with small cups of peppermint ice cream, calling it a "palate cleanser." It was very good and a nice touch. Other than the salad dressing and the sauce for the fish, it was an excellent meal in a nice atmosphere with good service. When we were leaving at around 7:00 pm, the line was out the door.

Grt them if you like ribs. My only regret and it was my own taste buds the bbq sauce needed some heat. My wife had chicken with artichoke hearts and sauce. She said it was tasty and the sauce sublime. Overall, a must dine at historic restaurant in Staunton.
