    We enjoyed my daughter's birthday brunch here and had a blast. Definitely want to get there early. It's pretty popular. The seasonal menu is very enjoyable. I found myself enjoying a beautifully mixed healthy (to my surprise) juice that was fantastic. Gave me the energy to keep up with my daughter, lol. Omelettes are great, sandwiches are great, service is very busy, but they don't forget you. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's definitely bustling and not a place to sit in silence.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Who needs silence when you have a delicious Bloody Mary to enjoy with family. Mimosas are always wonderful! I've never left this establishment hungry!

    Honey Caramel Crunch Iced Coffee

    Went here around 10:30 am and it was a packed house; we had a pretty long wait. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Opted to sit outside since the weather was nice and it felt cramped on the inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was just ok, we weren't checked on regularly and it took a little min for us to even get to place our orders. I tried the Farmhouse skillet hash (7.5/10) it looked really good, but fell short on flavor and seasoning for me. I also had the Honey Caramel Crunch coffee (9/10). After the long wait time to be seated, to order, and for the food to arrive, my excitement and satisfaction with dining here became low. I probably wouldn't revisit this location in particular, but I'm considering trying this restaurant again, somewhere else. They have different seasonal menus I'd like to try. My overall rate of experience : 6.5/10

    This is our usual breakfast spot because it is usually at least a four star. The best thing about our meal was the server. She was great. Everything you want a server to be. Attentive and smiled and kind and nice. The food wasn't so great, my wife ordered the special sandwich. It was good but messy and not great. She liked the flavors but it dripped everywhere. I ordered a hash and the potatoes weren't all the way done some were some were not. The eggs were fine but there was huge chunks of tomato the sun dried kind in it. It was not their typical affair. We decided to share a pancake. It was huge which is not a bad thing until you cut into it now I have a cardboard textured pancake that I cannot eat. It was not fluffy nor had any good flavor. Not certain on returning as my wife and I make a pretty mean breakfast at home.

    Trefeca

    Upon arrival I was greeted by Briana, she was every woman lol. She greeted me, took my order, and checked on me. She provided excellent customer service! The food was good. I had the Trefeca with eggs, sausages, and a Belgian waffle. The eggs were good just a little too cheesy. The waffle was fresh and airy. The sausages were cooked just right. The morning meditation drink was delicious!

    Food was delicious! I wish there was more steak in the hash but other than that it was very good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I sat at the bar, because it was so busy. So it was a little louder than I think it would have been if I sat at a table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Morning meditation was so good that I paid to take it home! Definitely coming back.

    Let me start saying this locations extremely cold so ladies bring a light jacket or sweater. Next it is very loud so don't expect to have a conversation without yelling at your party. We were told 20 to 30 minutes wait to be seated, is was more like 10-15. They have a great cold brew coffee and fresh kale juice. The problem we experienced is how long it takes to make a omelet and a salad! Food service at this location is really slow so bring your patience with your appetite. When our food did arrive I must admit it was worth the wait. My salad was outstanding and my wife really enjoyed the omelet that she ordered to taste. Overall it was worth our first visit and I will remember to bring a jacket for myself next time we visit. Until next time....

    Came in on a Sunday right before 10am and got seated right away. Our server was nice and attentive. Decent crowd so noise was average. My friend brought her 1-year old and was given a high chair and a coloring sheet with crayons for him. They also have booster seats. They had their fall menu and I ordered the Barbacoa Quesadilla Benedict - SO good! I also ordered their new Honey Caramel Crunch Iced Coffee. It was super sweet for me that I had to order a separate Cold Brew to mix it with. If you like sweet though, you'll love this drink. Overall, we had a really good experience. The fall menu was a nice surprise and I will definitely try to be back before they get rid of it!

    I have been here a few times and the food and service are always great. Food is fresh and everyone is friendly. The drinks taste really good but are very weak, I kind of thought maybe they forgot to add the alcohol?! We sat outside on their small patio and it was nice as long as we stayed under the umbrella.

    It was recommended by a friend. The food wasn't that bad, but not my favorite. However, their bacon was the best menu item in my opinion.

    Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone,so without further explanation let's begin!. This is my first time actually going to a brewery and this experience was what I hoped for!. We walked in and were greeted by the employee standing behind the podium. We were seated immediately, then were approached just as quickly by our waiter. He brought our drinks and food out in a very timely fashion. The atmosphere was just as chill, everyone enjoying the vibe, the drinks and the food!. The weather was perfect enough to sit outside as well if you choose to. I will definitely recommend snd without a doubt return to this establishment because the experience was amazing!. 5 stars hands down!.

    I stopped at New Realm for lunch and was impressed with everything from the moment I walked in…read more I sat at the bar and had a great view of their tap room through their giant glass windows. Having visited the new realm in VB I was familiar with their beer selections but rarely travel to this portion of Hampton roads. It may have been the time of day but the service was extremely quick and the entire vibe of this brewery would make it an ideal location to meet with larger groups. I ordered their bacon burger and it was everything you want. The spicy jalapeños and onions were an amazing touch. I'll be back for sure!

    The first red flag was an empty lot during peak dining hours. As we entered the building, I…read morecouldn't help but notice an odor like a dog owner's dank carpeted basement. It was a stale smell that could easily be remedied by a carpet washing if somebody cared enough to make an effort. It's not like they don't have time to freshen up the place; nobody is eating there. I ordered the Cajun blackened salmon with mashed potatoes and broccoli. I asked for no seasoning. The salmon came out fine. The potatoes were too salty and had too much butter. I did like that they mixed peels with the potato's, but the over seasoning ruined it. The broccoli was horrible. It tasted like it had been in the freezer for a year and recooked. The broccoli was also over buttered, and I have to wonder if they were trying to hide the freezer burn taste. It makes perfect sense that the broccoli would be old. They haven't had customers in a while, so the broccoli spent a lot of time in the freezer. But here's the thing: for what we paid, we deserved a fresh bag of broccoli. If I wanted food like this, I could've grabbed food from the back of my freezer and cooked it myself. It bothers me that it would've taken just a few extra steps to make the establishment an enjoyable dining experience. Maybe they foul it up because they don't enjoy serving large crowds. The younger generation has no work ethics. I will not eat at this store again.

The first time here service was excellent but it was also very slow. For take out, the food was slow but the service taker was good. The last time I went dining in, it was a Friday and they were a little busy but my waitress had no interest in serving me so service was bad. The restaurant itself is adjacent to the casino on the non-smoking side but it is not too noisy in the restaurant itself. The restaurant is always clean and seems to be staffed pretty decently. The food usually comes out relatively fast. I ordered the Hampton roads cheese steak, the prime rib, and the salad, onion rings, and the collard greens and all the food I have eaten has been good. No issues there. The management staff is pretty visible during busy times but don't see them openly helping staff. I think the restaurant is decent for spending your casino points but if I was paying to eat out, I would definitely not spend my money to eat here. Too many places to eat elsewhere that are cheaper and have better, more consistent service.

    I wanted to really like this place but it was just a miss for me. I only ordered the wings so I…read morecould try them out, but they were pre-breaded frozen wings.

We both felt our toast could have been toasted longer, but I was very happy to see they had rye bread, my favorite :0) The fried potatoes had a nice seasoning, as well. Id crisp them up a little more but that may be a personal preference. I love the nautical decor and the casual diner feel. It's a lot bigger than I would have thought from the outside. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. In the area and looking for brunch? Check them Out! I'll be back to try the omelettes, French toast and/or pancakes for sure. Maybe even their lunch since I love BLTs! PS I forgot to mention ruin the corn nuggets - my favorite of the day - hot and delicious especially with the honey! The ranch not so much but overall 10/10!

It was delicious! We would come back for another brunch day.
