It was delicious with some onions and what tasted like bacon fat on it. The kiddos got items from the kids' menu - a simple pasta and a small pizza. There was a special while we visited (Oktoberfest, I think) that had some fantastic German items, including a killer schnitzel with sour red cabbage and mashed potatoes. It was fantastic. I got a couple of the on-tap beers and enjoyed them much. There is a respectable cocktail menu (any of them can be made mocktail if you want). One thing I appreciated very much was how family-friendly the place is. Our waitress saw Child #3 starting to melt down and brought him over some toys to play with, commenting that she had kids of her own. Indeed, in the corner, there is a whole table full of toys for kids to play with. Even the bathroom has a full changing table setup, which is way better than those wall changing tables. Overall, a great experience.

I really wanted to have a good experience here. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case…read more I planned a day trip in Luray, VA for my husband's birthday. It was extremely hot and humid that day, and we have a baby, so we opted for an indoor restaurant with air conditioning. I came across Ollie Cat Cafe in a Google search. The online menu seemed to offer something for both of us to eat so we decided to give it a try. The parking was adequate and was a short walk from the car to the front door, which was helpful since I was carrying my baby in her car seat. When we walked in, the restaurant was about half full of patrons eating their meals. The staff was buzzing about as well. While we were standing by the front door, still holding my baby in her car seat, a staff member made eye contact with us and said "that looks heavy! I'll be with you in just a moment." She never came back to seat us. A second staff member looked at us and proceeded to keep working. While we were waiting and watching the room, a customer approached her and asked for their bill because they had been waiting so long. The waitress frantically said yes, and then walked over to the bar to get drinks for a different table. The drink station was next to where we were still standing. The same staff member proceeded to complain to my husband and I about how hectic it was and how they couldn't keep up to the point where she started bad-mouthing her own team. (The restaurant was only half full). She then directed a younger staff member at the drink station to seat us. He never even looked our way. After 15 minutes of watching the chaos, my husband, baby, and I left and went to Blue's Dog Bowl instead - where the food and staff were outstanding! So I'm sorry that I couldn't write a more thorough review of Ollie Cat Cafe, but until their staff learn how to wait tables and operate efficiently, this restaurant is going to suffer.

I was expecting a little more so our experience fell a tad short. I just thought it would blow me away but it's just not quite there. I was, however, really impressed with the amount of variety on the menu from local brews, local wines, and some European types! Reds, whites, rose, ports, dessert wines...YOU NAME IT! The wine was tasty, I opted for a sweeter white wine from VA, and my bf opted for a dryer red wine from VA. We slurped it down! The food was underwhelming. I don't believe it's prepared in-house. The flatbread we ordered had some bland chicken and was missing some color and seasoning. The fried pickles seemed frozen and the jalapeño poppers were nothing to get excited about. However, the local jam they served with the poppers made a BIG difference! I had never tried such a combo and that was pretty yummy!! Who knew jam and jalapeño poppers complimented each other so well. I'd love to try thier charcuterie boards too....maybe we just ordered the wrong items for a winery/brewery. Worth a pop in-

Ordering online was simple, but it was a long wait for the food. In fairness to Vesuvio, it was packed inside and there were several folks waiting outside in cars for their orders to be ready.

A menu should make your mouth water. This menu made a couple leave after taking one look at it. My husband ordered a salad and it was the saddest, most basic thing I have ever seen. It was iceberg lettuce, a few other things, and a chicken tender cut up into the tiniest pieces. I had a burger w/ PB & J and I don't think they could have put less PB & J on it. The burger did not seem to be great quality and was grey in color. Onion rings were a star here! The sweet tea was also very good. Our server was overwhelmed and did the best she could. I think she was the only server working a handful of tables. She was friendly, but felt scattered. The restaurant had several dirty tables and tables that were dirty underneath. Likely the result of a young diner, but it gave an overall appearance of being unclean. Decor was stark. I hope our experience was just a bad night.

She was so helpful throughout the entire process, always responded quickly by phone and email, had a spread sheet with all the information that we needed, gave us great suggestions, it was like having a personal wedding planner.
