    Caesar Salad
    Rannie S.

    Food was delicious! Big portions. Quick and attentive service! Ambience was quiet (we were the only ones there for lunch) but great decor and inviting. From the outside, the building looked closed. Whole parking lot was empty. Restaurant was hidden in the back. I think if more people knew this restaurant existed and easier to see from the road, they would get more customers. Definitely worth coming back here to try more things! I definitely come back just for the empanadas!

    Came for happy hour with friends. We tried all the dishes for happy hour. Our sever was very attentive. The ambulance is nice. Great spot for date night or ladies night. The shrimp was great. We got 2 orders of those. I'm not a fan of mussels but the sauce that they come in was soo good!! The burrata was good. The glaze on top of the greens, cheese and fruit was a great addition. The empanadas were great also. Crust was flaky and light, the inside was full of meat. The ceviche was ok. The guacamole was fresh and the chips were good. Can't go wrong with the steak bites. You definitely get enough steak. My friends and I split them. The expresso martini was really good too. We were celebrating a birthday so the birthday girl ordered the creme brulee and another friend ordered the chocolate cake. The chocolate cake was the favorite of the group. Great spot for happy hour!

    A friend of mine told me months ago how amazing this restaurant is. I definitely wish I had checked it out sooner! We planned an early Valentine's date for a recent Friday evening. I highly recommend reservations for dinner - the restaurant is not that big and it was packed. They maximize space too - very little room to wait for your table if the weather is not ideal. We were seated close to our reservation time and quickly greeted to ask for drink orders. Service was prompt and polite but our server wasn't very engaging or friendly. He just did what he was there to do. We ordered drinks and the ceviche appetizer. My Malbec was outstanding - one of the best I've had. Hubby had a draft IPA from Wasserhund. The ceviche was good and a large portion for 2. For entrees, I had the grilled chicken and hubby tried the filet. After a bite of his, I wish I had ordered that! The chicken was good and cooked well but this is definitely the place for steak! The filet was out of this world - cooked perfectly and melt in the mouth tasty. He said it far surpassed any steak he's had locally. On Sundays, they have a BOGO half off filet special and we will definitely be back for it!

    I dined at La Oficina in Chesapeake, VA, and it was such a great experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant, welcoming, and full of energy. The décor gives that modern Latin vibe -- perfect for date night, girls' night, or even a birthday dinner. Which we went for an Influencer night The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Everything came out fresh, beautifully presented, and seasoned just right. You can tell they take pride in both the taste and the presentation. The drinks were just as impressive -- crafted perfectly and definitely worth trying if you enjoy a good cocktail. Customer service was top tier. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. We never felt rushed, and they were happy to answer questions about the menu. If you're looking for a spot in Chesapeake with great food, strong drinks, and a fun vibe, La Oficina is definitely a place to check out. I'll definitely be back!

    Grilled Chicken with Two Sides Lunch

    We had a reservation at 3:30 for Valentine's day and got there about 10 minutes early but we were seated right away. The atmosphere was interesting. It presents as a fancier restaurant, but the walls did not match (if that makes any sense). We were in and out of the restaurant in less than an hour. The food was amazing and came out so quickly. The steak and chicken were so juicy. The roasted potatoes definitely needed some salt and pepper but once that was added it was fine. The caesar salad was different but the presentation was beautiful and tasted even better. The crème brûlée was a little burnt on the top but was still good. We will 100% come back on special occasions.

    This place will definitely give you a nice dining experience. The service was great! The food was delicious! I had the mussels to start sans bread. They have a blue cheese butter sauce that comes with it - I know that combo sounds interesting, but it was AMAZING!! For my entree, I had the grilled chicken with yucca fries and green beans. They ask if you want extra onions and mushrooms - get it! Everything was seasoned well. I did end up using some ketchup for the fries, but the chicken was favorable and the veggies were tender. The green beans are sautéed so none of that blanched stuff here! For dessert, I had to try the crème brûlée. It was so good, several of friends sampled mine! The presentation is everything! They caramelize the sugar table side!! They have a bar area, and a good amount of tables. I'm doing dry January so I didn't have a drink, but they have several cocktails to try when I come back. I ordered the French pork chop to go. My husband said was super tender!

    The service is ok. The decoration was impressive as it gives an accommodating ambiance, Great for date night or a friends hang out . My only complain would be although service was ok out of the 3 people we mostly witness as staff only one looked cheerful enough towards their customers. The host and our waiter were very dry. I don't recommend getting fish from there my fish was dry and lacked flavor. I didn't take my left overs because it was over cooked so I can't fix it home. The steak meals were delish. I really like the tenderness and juicy flavor.

    Friday nights are always hard to decide where to eat. We love to try different places and this time my husband decided to choose and we tried La Oficina for the first time. It was a great choice. The happy hour menu had a lot of choices, the drinks were amazing and while there wasn't a lot of GF choices, I did enjoy the Ceviche Mahi Mahi and it was great. I'll definitely order it again. The atmosphere was great! we sat by the bar though next time I'd like to sit at a table. The service was spot on very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!

    First time here and I'm glad I tried it. I had the regular ribeye cooked rare and hubby had the filet rare as well. The ribeye was thinner that usual which I'm assuming is a cost saving measure. The ribeye was very flavorful. For sides I had the mashed potatoes which was creamy and good as well as the green been which I would not recommend. The green beans came out cool and soggy. Hubby had the fries and asparagus, he indicated they were ok.

    Beef Empanadas; Burrata; Margaritas

    Great spot for Happy Hour!! 3-6p every day. Service and hospitality was great. Presentations were beautiful. We sat in the lounge at low tables with leather seats. Shared steak bites (my fave), burrata, guacamole, and beef empanadas (small/ perfect for tapas) & we paired these with crafted margaritas (my sister and I are very picky about our margaritas and these were so good). There were seafood options and other drinks for happy hour that i wanted to try.... so i will definitely be returning !

    16 oz. Ribeye wtih double House Baked Potatoes
    Crissie H.

    My husband and I came here for a date night, and we were just blown away. EVERYTHING was delicious (if you don't get the empanadas, you're missing out). I had the picanha and he had the ribeye. Both amazing. The ambiance is great, the staff even better, and the happy hour and weekly specials can't be beat. Excited to have something to amazing in Chesapeake, and not having to go out to VB or Norfolk all the time.

    Mussels, empanadas
    Lea G.

    The service, the food, the atmosphere, the happy hour....All amazing! We've been back 3 times now and this has become our new date spot. I love their blue cheese sauce mussels, their steak and chimichuri sauce and their chips and guacamole. The cocktails are yummy too.

    House salad - amazing dressing!
    Meredith S.

    Wow!! We just happened to be in the area one Saturday and were hungry. So of course, YELP it is! We got super lucky stumbling onto this place. We wanted steak, and this looked really interesting. We were NOT disappointed!!! The restaurant is beautiful! Clean and family owned. My favorite kind of place. Service was amazing! So friendly and they were on point the entire meal, they even took the time to explain how things were made. We started with a house salad and a Caesar. And we were glad we did! The house salad comes in a very different presentation. It's a little tough to cut on the narrow plate, but I can forgive that. The veggies were fresh and that house dressing is incredible! Hubby always gets a Caesar, and most are pretty standard. But this?! He was blown away. Instead of croutons, they use panko crumbs on top of a whole romaine head. The flavor was outstanding! Definitely homemade dressing. I ordered the filet with mashed potatoes and Hubby had the NY Strip with fries. My filet was a perfectly cooked mid-rare and those mashed potatoes were so fluffy. I could have eaten a bucket of them! The Strip was the perfect rare, which isn't easy to do correctly. What really sets things apart though are the homemade sauces that accompany the steak. One is a chimmichuri which was perfectly balanced. The other blew my mind! It tastes garlicky, and finishes with a little pleasant heat (I am not a fan of spicy hot). Come to find out it's all a blend of peppers. No garlic at all. Just WOW! And as if the experience couldn't get any better, they have crème brûlée on the menu (our favorite!). They even burn the sugar layer right in front of you. Overall a fantastic experience. We will definitely be back. Don't miss this one!!

    I can't wait for ours in Indian Land to open because tonight's dining was a WONDERFUL experience…read more While in town visiting family for the Labor Day weekend, they suggested this spot. Hubby and I were thrilled because one is opening near our home outside of Charlotte, NC. Make reservations! This place was packed and we quickly figured out why. Everything is so good. We didn't quite figure out the "lay of the land" but there appeared to be a designated place for tasting that was packed. We enjoyed looking at the "wine toys" while we waited for our table. There are sooooo many unique things that I can't wait to purchase from a location closer to us when it opens; traveling with glass didn't seem too smart. Our server was great and I wish I knew her name to shout her out. Ask to sample any wine you're curious about. And let me say... the sampling pours are more than just a sip. I was astonished! I chose the red flight as rendered. Everything was good. I'm not a fan of Spanish reds and should have substituted that one. Next time! They are so conscientious about food allergies and preferences that you can customize everything (except the jambalaya). I already knew before arriving (because I look at menus ahead of time) that I was getting the scallop and shrimp risotto, especially after I learned I could have it without the disgusting peas and asparagus (but with extra spinach.... I do love some veggies). It was AMAZING and will probably be the dish I always end up getting at the Indian Land, SC location when it opens. No room for dessert so you'll have to read my next review for that. 10/10

    While out on a Wednesday evening, my daughter and I decided to stop by Cooper's for a quick wine…read moretasting, but the wait was far too long, so we ended up sitting at the bar and dining in. The bartender was very sweet and provided us with menus right away. Since I had a "Dine-In Only Bottle" available as a member, I ordered a bottle Cabernet Sauvignon, which is my absolute favorite. We also decided on the House-Made Meatballs (another favorite), the Crispy Barbacoa Arancini, which is a "featured" item, and the Classic Cheeseburger. While we waited, we chatted with others at the bar and since we all wanted to sample the Wine of the Month, the Blanc de Noirs, our bartender was able to provide us with a tasting, which we enjoyed. It took about 40 minutes for our food to arrive but everything tasted amazing, as always. The House-Made Meatballs never miss and the Crispy Barbacoa Arancini were amazing! My daughter enjoyed her Cheeseburger as well. Cooper's Hawk will forever be my one of favorite restaurants and I can't wait to return!!!

    It was my wife's birthday, so we've wanted to try Heirloom for her celebration. I worked my way…read morethrough college as a waiter / bartender, so I notice things the average diner won't. Heirloom is a well-run establishment. When you see every employee completing tasks with every movement and the owner bussing tables plus talking with patrons, this is a service-oriented business. For my wife's birthday, the service was indeed excellent. The atmosphere is Southern chic. I caution you, don't try a Saturday Evening reservation by calling Friday night. Call early in the week to ensure a Saturday feast. Heirloom sources as much of its ingredients as possible from local farmers and fishermen. It was Happy Hour so I asked what was the "bar bourbon"? Our waitress, Candice, knew exactly what I meant and told me, Evan Williams. An Old Fashion made with Evan Williams for 8 bucks, Yes Ma'am to that. My wife enjoyed a glass of crisp pinot grigio with her meal. Candice service was impeccable the entire experience. We started with Crispy Mushrooms appetizer - awesome. Our entrees were very generous portions. My wife ordered the Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, two large cakes with crispy squash fritters and succotash for the sides, old bay remoulade on the side for the crab cakes. Nothing but crab with very little binder. She loved the entire meal. I enjoyed the Honey Glazed Bone-In Pork Chop with bbq beans and potato salad for sides. The beans needed work, but the potato salad was excellent with big chucks of potato. The pork chop was star though. A huge two-bone affair grilled to perfection. I had to cut it in half and take one half home it was so large. Magnificent. We finished celebrating her birthday by sharing the S'mores Tart for dessert. Graham cracker crust with chocolate ganache layered on top, crowned with sea salt. A toasted marshmallow cream on the side with Happy Birthday written in chocolate on the plate. She was delighted. It was not overwhelming sweet. Fabulous with two cups of decaf coffee to finish. My wife enjoyed the whole experience and definitely wants to come back. She believes Heirloom was the best dining delight we've had in Virginia Beach. I certainly agree.

    Heirloom is one of the 757s shining gems of restaurants. You get a fine dining style meal and…read moreservice, but in a mostly casual setting. The servers and staff are observant and focused on small details that really set Heirloom apart. I especially love the part of the dining room filled with lush hanging plants. We visit several times a year and are always impressed by the quality. We always order the She Crab soup and a Wedge Salad as appetizers to share. They are both so good, I'd probably request them as my last meal! The She Crab soup is absolute perfection, creamy and full of lump crab. I will not order She Crab soup anywhere else after trying theirs. The wedge has pickled onions, candied bacon, blue cheese and some kind of marinated or pickled tomato. Paired all together to make the perfect bite. We have tried a lot of the menu, it does rotate around seasonally, but there are some items that are consistent. The burger was absolutely decadent but not overwhelming. I usually order the "secret", not so secret Shrimp dinner that's not on the menu anymore. You get 6 of their amazing fried shrimp, a magical dipping sauce (cant' describe it!), and 2 sides. (see what's their seasonal sides!) Heirloom will remain one of our favorite places in the 757 to celebrate special occasions!

Yiannis always gets it right no matter what is thrown at them. The optional chef's choice offering (similar to Japanese omakase) provides a relaxing, catered-to experience when decision fatigue is high. We love the subtle Greek twist on the dishes, particularly how well it works with the lamb lollipops. While the food is amazing, the incredible service is what keeps us returning. It is always impeccable, with knowledgeable servers and eager sommeliers, and Yiannis himself frequently stopping by. We were even treated to a tour of the kitchen on our first visit. It is this above and beyond attitude that always makes me recommend Yiannis.

    I would like to preface this with the fact that we went on a Wednesday night so maybe their weekend…read moredining is better Food: For appetizers we got the mussels. The broth was flat and still had a wine taste to it. When I told the owner, he agreed that the wine taste was overpowering and told me they got a new chef who tried a new recipe and that they will go back to the old recipe. For entrees I got the lamb chops with risotto and she crab soup. The lamb was very tender but the flavor was lacking. It was also luke warm. The she crab soup was good but too salty. The owner also acknowledged that as well. The risotto was okay. Nothing special. My husband got the grilled bronzino and broccolini. I tried some and I liked the taste but he said it could have used more flavor. Broccolini was steamed and I wish they had grilled it instead. The bread pudding was the star of the entire meal. It was made of donuts. It was moist, sweet, and delicious. Drinks: We got a bottle of champagne and two cocktails. Drinks were all very good Service: This is probably why I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 3. The service was very good. First, they called me prior to my reservation and asked if they could pre-chill any wine or champagne for my husband's birthday and I was very appreciative of that. When we got there, our drinks came out a little slow but our waiter comped that immediately. Throughout the night, the owner checked in on us several times and that stood out to me. Overall I will come back once they fix some things with the new chef. Hopefully the food will get better
