    Front entrance from street side

    This spot is amazing! We hit it up on our way to the Afton 151 adventure from the 757. Our server was phenomenal, the drinks came out quick while we waited for our food. Everything was beyond delicious. We HAD to order dessert (pot de creme), suggested by our server, and it was everything and then some! We sat outside and got to see the beautiful sunset. The only bad thing was it did have a little cow manure smell, but to be expected being outside.

    Local, comfy, cozy here! On the way to Richmond To fly out to Sandals in St Lucia and stopped here on the way. Great menu, great vibes, great service! Kept it simple with chicken wrap and steak quesadilla, but both were #yummo!!

    Overall we had a lovely experience eating and drinking at Fardowners restaurant. It's definitely a family owned business. The warmth of the employees is so nice. We started with their Mac n cheese and it was amazing! I got the Fardowners burger and it was cooked to perfection. The meat was fresh and lean, absolutely delicious. The bean soup was homemade and was hot and filled with tasty ingredients. I love the feel of the restaurant inside, lots of cool art. The people make the real difference here, you can tell how invested they are in helping each other as a team. I've been to a lot of good restaurants and this one ranks in the top in the hospitality/excellent home cooked food category. Our waitress, Sydney was awesome, I hope to visit again and experience that same type of amazing service.

    Service, food, atmosphere was excellent! We went for Sunday brunch, bruschetta appetizer was unique and fresh. Caroline was an excellent server!

    Quinoa Fardowners Salad

    We came on a busy Saturday and requested a booth so we had a bit of a wait but we didn't mind and the hostess was wonderful. We got a window spot after about 15 minute wait and quickly ordered two beers for ourselves and a side of bacon and Mac and cheese for our toddler. The Mac and cheese didn't have much pasta in it but it was a spiral pasta which was yummy and tons of tasty and real cheese sauce that we dipped our fries in later. I ordered the quinoa salad but it had mainly white rice instead of quinoa being the main base which was disappointing but it was still yummy. Hubby got a steak and cheese but he was not impressed. Great service but we'll have to try something new next time!

    Fardowners Bowl

    We came here with another couple and tried a little of everything. Sitting at the bar and watching the bartender make 50 Bloody Mary's, and I had to try one. I see why he was making so many, because it was great. My wife and I ordered the Fardowners' bowl and wrap and they were both pretty good. The bowl was a little heavy on the sausage and the flavor of that overpowered everything else. We also got biscuits and gravy to share and that was pretty tasty.

    Steak and Eggs

    We went for brunch on a Sunday morning. Got there about 15 till opening and there was already a line waiting to get in. The service was great, the Bloody Mary was just okay, probably wouldn't get one again but the steak and eggs I got for my meal, holy cow it was probably one of the best if not the best steak I've had at a restaurant!! Would certainly recommend that if you decide to visit!!

    We had a really good experience at The Mill Street Grill. We ordered the prime rib, steamed…read moremussels, and the barbecue platter. Everything was good, and the portions were generous. The prime rib was cooked well, the mussels were flavorful, and the barbecue platter had a good variety. The service was great--fast, courteous, and attentive without making us feel rushed. The restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere. It felt lively and energetic, but it was not too loud to have a conversation. Overall, this was a solid dinner and a place I would recommend when visiting Staunton. I would definitely eat here again.

    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.
