Update from 2026…read more Gorgeous ocean view, well maintained modern and hip atmosphere, delicious food, attentive service, fun drinks. This is one of the spots we must visit on our every trip to Virginia Beach. Convenient garage parking. Highly recommend.

This place is right on the oceanfront. The views are wonderful…read more There is a parking deck and they validate your parking for two hours. After two hours it's $3.00. (The sign inside said it would be $2.00) Upon parking in the parking deck, you have to take the elevator to the 23rd floor. Some of the elevators do not work and you will not be able to get to the 23rd floor to the restaurant. Good luck and I hope you find the right elevator. We had reservations but they were not ready for us. We barely fit in the tiny space where they sat us, so they had to move some of us and then some of us had to move again. I ordered the short rib udon and the soba sushi. Both were meh. The short rib udon was more fat than anything else. The food was also incredibly expensive considering the quality and the portions. The service was ok. I would go back from drinks, but I will definitely pass on the food.

Went here Saturday after 2 pm for some lunch and drinks. It was pretty empty and quiet; ordered at…read morethe bar and was able to just sit where we wanted while we waited for our food. Loved the setup and the extra board games you can play along with shuffle board. I had brought my own uno cards to play and we sat in their little couches area. Def a comfortable and fun atmosphere. Ordered their Macho nachos (10/10) really yummy and a good portion, their wings in garlic parmesan (6/10) they really had no flavor as if they were just plain oven roasted wings and in mango habanero (9/10), and their loaded waffle fries (10/10). For drinks we had the Beachside mojito (9/10) and the Bahama mama (8/10); their drinks were pretty decent overall. Def will be going back soon; great date night spot and hangout spot with some friends. My overall rate of experience : 8.5/10

Ate here recently for lunch and enjoyed our meal. The hamburger was good and my wife enjoyed the…read morecrab cake sandwich. We had cocktails that were tasty, but well overpriced. Our server was friendly, but slow. The restaurant was typical for a hotel bar and grill, meaning there was no warmth in the furnishings or decor. All in all, I won't be back, not because the food and drinks were bad, but because the price was much higher than the establishment called for.

Arbuckle's Bar & Grill is an American restaurant located on the ground floor of the Embassy Suites…read more Parking was convenient with a nearby garage at reasonable prices, though it can fill up quickly. The surrounding area is easy to walk and has a cute vibe. When we walked in, there was a short wait because the hostess was busy, but she apologized right away. It wasn't an issue for us since we weren't in a rush, and the acknowledgment was appreciated. For drinks, I ordered the mimosa sangria, which was just okay--not bad, but nothing memorable. For food, I went with Fatty's Hangover Burger ($16), topped with a fried sunny-side egg, apple-smoked bacon, lettuce, and tomato on a toasted challah roll. I added cheese for an extra $1. I don't usually order burgers, but this one was decent. It was a little peppery for my taste, but overall enjoyable. The sunny-side egg really made it, and the fries were a solid side. Overall, a convenient option if you're staying nearby or looking for a casual American styled food with a relaxed atmosphere.

It's 4-stars ONLY due to our amazing Justin, the server. He's my DREAM server, who ate everything…read moreon the menu & thus his recommendations are stellar. Plus, he's sooo kind!! All smiles & "no worries!" :) Food- honestly, everything we had was delicious. Bavarian pretzel, club sandwich, & 2 kids meals, grilled cheese & mac & cheese. Bonus- kids meal comes with drink & yummy ice cream. Get the bday cake or oreo! Club sandwich is huge triple-decker on Texas Toast. We shared it. Yummmm. The problem- we weren't planning to order any of that. They were out of EVERYTHING. The only saving grace was Justin & the food was actually very good. But- the kids wanted pizza, but no cheese. Cheeseburger? nope, no meat. Quesadilla? nope again, no proteins to put in it. Tacos? NOPE- missing ingredients. The most ridiculous? My wife wanted a cup for her beer. THEY WERE OUT OF CUPS! omg! Who is doing the ordering? Are you shocked to be busy, at the beach, in July?

A great location right on the beach, and located in the basement of the Holiday Inn. We were able…read moreto sit outside by the beach and enjoy the great weather. Our server was friendly- but the service was brutally slow and they were out of several items. No idea what was going on that day. But the food we did get was decent. I had the bao buns, which were really Asian style tacos (even served on a taco stand). But the flavor was there, and it was a good bite overall. They have a decent kids menu too, with pizza, sliders and mac and cheese. Its a pretty good place to stop by the beach for a lunch, just wish the service had been faster.

Hands down the best happy hour in the city. I'd argue it's probably the best restaurant too. The…read moreraw oysters are killer, as are the cocktails. The best thing they ever did was to bring the short rib back! I recommend this place to literally anyone who asks for a rec. Be prepared for a wait unless you get to HH early on a random weekday.

This past weekend my in laws were in town. We were on the boardwalk and they wanted oysters... I…read moresaid say less! I had been to The Atlantic years ago and had a great time. I think this time was even better! We arrived around 230 on a Saturday, lucky for us happy hour started at 3 and we had a 30 minute wait for 6 people. Literally perfect timing because no one was waiting before us and about 10-20 minutes later the waiting area became packed for that 3 o clock happy hour. Side note: happy hour is from 3-7, 7 days a week! The service was phenomenal, the whole staff was so nice and accommodating. While we waited for our table, we were able to order a cocktail from one of the waitresses. We also had a baby with a stroller and they made sure we had plenty of room once we were seated at our table. The food was amazing, I'm a fan of cooked oyster but i decided to be a little spontaneous and try them raw. I was pleasantly surprised at how fresh and clean tasting these oysters were. It reminded me of eating sashimi. My wife and father in law had the lobster rolls, they both loved them! My son had the double cheeseburger from the happy hour menu, literally cannot beat this deal. $6 double cheeseburger with fries on the boardwalk is unimaginable lol. I had the Nashville hot chicken, which was good but maybe could've used a little more flavor. But the quality of the sandwich as a whole was spot on. I really don't have any complaints, this was the highlight of our day. My in laws live in Wisconsin but they travel a bunch and they said that these oysters were some of the best they had ever had. They would never see 1$ oysters where they live, so I'm glad we were able to come here and create this memory together. If you've ever debated whether taking the trip to the strip is worth it, it is! Definitely check this place out!

We loved the food at Repeal Bourbons and Burgers !…read more We started off with drinks which were yummy and delicious. I had the Plymouth Rock because I love Gin and it was refreshingly sweet. My husband had the Margarita on the Rocks which I was not a fan of. I did not like the mix they used to make thins drink. My son also tasted it and agreed with my opinion. The lettuce wraps were really good. My daughter in law and I both had the CALIFORNICATION burger, my husband had the CLASSIC burger, my son had the CAPONE Burger and everyone was really happy! All burgers were properly cooked and delicious. The fries were good, nothing special to write about. My husband had the fries with bacon dust and they were very sweet. He wasn't a fan but I thought they were delicious!

This placed had good reviews so I decided to try it for myself. Walked in in the afternoon. It was…read morenot busy and I had a choice of seating outside or inside. Sat in a booth inside since it was a little warm outside. Bomb MI was good. It had black garlic sesame aioli, kimchi, pork belly, sunny side egg, cucumber on a sesame seed bun. The Southside was alright. It is bombay gin, St. Germaine, Jack Rudy small-batch tonic, and soda. Would have given this place a 4/5 if not for the crappy service. The rude guy working the bar was neither friendly or pleasant. There were no napkins when food was served. I stood up and politely asked for some. I found some below the register and, since the guy was busy prepping drinks, I decided to get them myself. He then said, "okay do my job," which was unnecessary and rude. Though the other waiter was friendlier, service was overall bad.

O's donuts had apple cider donuts and apple fritters. I went with an apple cider donut to pair with my apple pie cider. I finished the night with Al the Holiday Helper. So sad that the Norfolk location in the Chelsea district is closing. I stayed for a few hours and headed out for dinner. They did have bake house pizza there, but I just had pizza the other night. I was feeling the holiday season and went looking for a gobbler sandwich. I am glad to see the smartmouth va beach location thriving and I just may come back for another event in the near future.

We sat outside, would have been nice if this place is located on a beach.... Sitting over top of a pretty active roadway kind of lost a little bit of the luster. Seems like a local spot that probably kicks off really GREAT at night. Just 'ok' as of afternoon red spot. This is the kind of spot you go to when you need something cheap to eat and drink and you want to just hang out with some old parks for happy hour. Also seems like a great place to watch a game on the inside. Tons of TVs!
