Pros: Very good Carolina pulled pork sandwich. Additional…read moreseating is available outside, though it's only practical during warmer months. Cons: Fries had too much seasoning. Grilled chicken sandwich nothing special- not enough seasoning. Small indoor seating area- only 4-5 tables. We asked for food to go since we're visiting and they only had one very small container of ketchup they could give us Overall: The pulled pork sandwich is the highlight, but the rest of the meal and the limited seating make it a mediocre experience. Convenient for a quick stop, but not a standout dining destination. Based on this, I give this establishment a 2.5 out of 5 stars.

In fact, since I've moved to Virginia, the god-forsaken barren wasteland of pizza, I've found two pizzas worth eating... that is until today. This isn't the best pizza I've had (but maybe it is actually), but it's damn close. My wife and I rented a VRBO in the same building, and we went to Muse after a day on the sand just to have DRINKS! I refused subjecting myself to pizza from a Virginia pizza place, even if the atmosphere and ambiance was fantastic I ordered a few drinks, and then I realized that food would be nice, so I got some really sub-par cheese fries (gritty cheese sauce that had the consistency of mashed potatoes with the taste of under-seasoned white gravy). The specialty drinks were ok (at best), and let's be honest; basil DOES NOT (!!!) belong in a drink, despite me being curious enough to order one. They were just ok, albeit over-priced, but who cares because the pizza was the star of the show! This pizza was phenomenal, and at the end of our night, we ordered one to go when we left. That one to go, by the way, was gone before 9pm tonight. The crust was chewy and crispy at the same time with tons of subtle flavor. There was minimal sauce (most restaurants in Virginia, I've found, tend to over-sauce in order to make up for their crappy crust), and the toppings that were there (onions and bacon) were working in harmony instead of trying desperately to be the focus. This entire thing was fantastically done by someone who knows what they are doing with a pizza, which is rare in this state. Bravo, Muse, for the best pizza I've had west of Cape Charles's Dead Rise Pies.

Pros:A great spot for live entertainment with a cool, stylish interior. There's plenty of seating…read moreboth indoors and outdoors, depending on the season. The wings were good, though the sauce was drizzled on rather than fully tossed. Cons:The fries were just okay. Despite staying to enjoy the live music, our wings and fries were served in to-go containers, and we weren't provided plates--expected to eat straight from the boxes, even though plates were clearly available behind the bar. Beer and cider selections were also more limited than expected. Overall: The venue has a great atmosphere, live entertainment, and decent wings, but the limited drink selection and the inconvenience of eating from to-go containers indoors significantly affected the overall experience. Therefore, I need to give this one a 3 out of 5.

Pros:Definitely the best spot in Colonial Beach for live entertainment. The MashUp band is great…read more Cons:The food is mediocre overall. The hostess said she would come find us when a table opened in the main entertainment area, but she never did. The marinated chicken on my salad was tasty, but it was the only good part--the salad itself was very basic, consisting of just lettuce and croutons. The buffalo wings were rubbery and not extra crispy as requested; the server even asked when she delivered them if they were crispy enough, so the request clearly wasn't forgotten. We ordered 10 but could only eat 2, and the rest were thrown away. The hush puppies were just okay, but they were small and dried out easily, needing butter to add both flavor and moisture. Overall:A fun spot for live music and atmosphere, but the food and service miss the mark. Come for the entertainment, not the dining experience.

My French toast was just cinnamon bread and wasn't dipped in the egg wash and pan fried/ seared. And the country ham I got on the side looked soggy and grey. Like too it was too wet. Could've been seared a little at least so it was kinda crispy but no. So I tossed it. Wasted a whole $2.50 on a slice of that that's like the side of a dollar bill. And $1.10 for a slice of cheese?
