Came for breakfast with the family and were seated immediately upon arrival. I tried the raspberry peach bellini since they have a nice $4 breakfast happy hour with some very appealing drinks. I didn't catch what everyone ordered but my food was very hard to forget. Hashbrown Benedict with nice thick hashbrowns on top of a English muffin with perfectly poached eggs and beautifully runny yolks. Topped with bacon and a wonderful hollandaise sauce. ABSOLUTE BANGER. Fiance got the western omelet, looked super packed with onions, tomatoes and ham with a nice amount of cheddar cheese on top. The Kids platter could feed an adult, so don't pass up that deal. The raspberry peach bellini was super refreshing and a great pair to my eggs Benedict!! You know the food was good when there is absolutely no leftovers! Great service, food and atmosphere. The bathrooms were very nice and clean as well. Highly recommend. read more

The-food-was-delicious A+ We ordered the Shrimp Scampi, Blackened Salmon Fresh Catch, and Fish & Chips with the fresh catch of the day -- Flounder. Every dish was absolutely delicious; we cleaned our plates! The portion sizes were generous and more than enough, but everything tasted so good that we still managed to finish it all. The-service-was-really-great A+ The staff were friendly and went above and beyond when we accidentally left our credit card behind near closing time. They handled the situation professionally -- verifying our identity before returning it safely the next morning. The-ambiance-is-warm-lively A+ The restaurant is welcoming ,warm ,filled with cheerful conversations of families sharing meals, creating an atmosphere that's relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable. read more

Good Low cost breakfast. Real simple and fresh. Family style seating great service with great attitude.

We've visited Nautilus Restaurant three times now, and each visit has been better than the last. The food is always fresh, and the service is consistently amazing. Lauren was our waitress, and she truly stood out--she checked on us regularly, was pleasant, and very accommodating throughout our meal. The music added a fun and entertaining touch to the atmosphere as well. We're already looking forward to coming back next year! read more

The whole restaurant was incredible from when we walked all the thou to we walked out. The Wait staff were very friendly, smiling, and just great personalities. The atmosphere was very pleasant. (Granted we got there at a slow point of the day) The decor was very interesting, with all the naval stuff and the table were very cool as well. Now, the very best part...THE FOOD! The crab legs were fantastic and were cooked very well. Great taste and the best part was the meat didn't break apart like other places. Overall, 10 out of 10! If you're in Virginia Beach, this is a must! read more

We wanted Seafood and didn't want to travel far since it was late outside. This place was across the street from our Hotel. They had a few customers inside. We were seated and our Server Sydney greeted us and told us that the Kitchen was closing in 15 minutes. So we quickly ordered our drinks and food. We ordered Sweet Tea and it was overly Sweet, we asked for a cup of ice to dilute it. We ordered Crab Dip and Steamed Shrimp for Appetizers. The Crab Dip was good, but it wasn't hot, the Steamed Shrimp was good. I ordered the Crab Cake with French Fries, they weren't good nothing like I'm used to in Maryland we do it best. The restaurant gave me a Log Cabin feel a lot of Paneling with TV's mounted throughout. Our Server Sydney was nice and attentive. read more

They just started doing breakfast. We loved everything we had. Their menu was very extensive which was perfect for me since I don't eat eggs. I had the sausage, hash browns and imported Halloumi cheese from Cyprus. The cheese was incredible as were the other dishes I had. $4 mimosas from 7:30 am until 2:00 pm also! My girlfriend had the American breakfast special for $9. She loved hers as well. The owners are also super nice and you can tell they take great pride in their restaurant / food. Highly recommend. 10/10. read more

OMG I went here while in Virginia Beach for breakfast on spring break vacation with my family and the waitress was the sweetest and the food was amazing! Would go again! read more

Went there expecting a great meal and the shrimp and crab were so over cooked it was hard to get them out of the shell. The crab was stuck to the inside shell and had to be cut open to get the dry crab out. The shrimp also was stuck to the shell and hard to get out, disappointed since we were there before and it was good. Won't go back there for $50.00 I expected better. The potatoes were bland and the corn on the cob was soft. read more

INTRO: Seafood restaurant located in Virginia beach. Vegetable Scampi with Chicken ($22)- Chicken was tender and was very flavorful along with vegetables and pasta. Parking/location- Parking was hard to find since it is located right on the busiest walk in Virginia beach. Ambience/ Service- Service was good but it was packed with customers even late at night. This is due to the busyness of the area. Had a 25 minute wait. Not a seafood fan so it would be hard to tell if it was worth the chaotic hustle of the restaurant. But the dish that was eaten was very good and worth getting. read more

In town for the weekend and found this place near our hotel for dinner. Brooke our server was great. She was friendly and made dinner and app suggestions. We decided on the bang bang shrimp and steamed clams. The bang bang shrimp was a little spicy but was very good and the shrimp were huge! For dinner we ordered the Delmonico steak with a baked potato and the fried shrimp dinner and baked potato. Everything came out fast and was hot. The cocktail sauce was definitely homemade with old bay seasoning and was my favorite! We ate inside but there was outdoor seating as well. Great location, and very good service. read more

The hubs and I were celebrating his birthday in Virginia Beach one weekend. We checked into the hotel around 8ish o'clock, and hit the streets for food. I'm not familiar with the area, so I was ready to use the Yelp App, but the hubs had already walked through the Nautilus Restaurant doors lol. Upon entry, I noticed it was quiet with a few people eating, and one finished paying the check. A hostess showed us to a table where our waitress greeted and brought water. I perused the menu quickly, but it was the hubs choice since it was his celebratory weekend. He opted for the shrimp and fish with a side of fries. There was also an order of a twisted mango colada that was delicious, sweet, and creamy. If there was alcohol in there I wouldn't know lol. Our waitress was also very sweet and nice. She shared she was only a few weeks into her waitressing position. When the food hit the table I dug in. The fish and shrimp were battered evenly. I felt the seasoning was on point where we were able to taste the seafood, and not just a huge thick of breaded batter. The waitress did say the shrimp and fish were frozen, one being from Alaska, and the other unknown. The fries were tasty, crunchy, and fried fresh. Overall, we had a good experience, and would come back again :) read more

Our past experiences were amazing. We went there yesterday and it was disappointing on several fronts. The price for quality of food was not proportional. The service was ok, it was busy so I can't fault them for being slower than normal. Most importantly, the food just wasn't that great. read more

This was my first time here and it was okay. Not the best place I've ever been to, but there was no wait and tons of seating options. Me and my boyfriend got a burger. It was okay. Nothing to rave about to be honest. I got bacon in mine, but the bacon wasn't crispy enough and too salty - I ended up taking it off. My favorite part were the fries. read more

Pretty good and filling. After a fun day at the beach, I got food from here which was right across the Hampton Inn North Front. My wife had the burger, I got the shrimp scampi, my 4yo daughter got the chicken tenders, and my 7yo son had popcorn shrimp. According to my son, they have the best French fries, but he's said that about every other place... so take that with a grain of salt. My wife's burger was over seasoned but their shrimp scampi was butterly (utterly) delicious. I thought I had shrimp scampi but now I realize all others was trash in comparison to Nautilus's shrimp scampi. read more

Convenient location right across the street from our hotel and the boardwalk. The inside was clean and welcoming. Our waitress was friendly. The lunch menu was concise, I ordered the chicken fingers and French fries to split with my toddler, and ordered some hush puppies! Everything was hot and fresh, the hush puppies were some of the best I've had! It wasn't too busy at 1pm on a Saturday, which was a plus! Would definitely return next time we are on vacation! read more

As I have said a 3 or 4 star review is not a bad review. But while my logical side says everything about this place was a solid "beach average" I would bump them up a star. First iff the food, good overall, I had the fried oysters which were not overbreaded!! My wife got the typical you find them everywhere old bay seasoned peel and eat shrimp. The food was good overall, about what I expexted. I was not a fan of the music they were playing outdoors and in that section of atlantic you get the car and motorcycle "revvers" which detracted from the feel of the place. The service was a slow but we got there as the evening rush was peaking. Although I did note the service at a few other tables was more attentive. So overall a solid place to go with good food and decent service. Prices were a solid medium too. read more

I would post a 0 if I can. I Went here with my daughters and they sat us down with no wait. However no one ever came to our table and we left after 15 minutes. We do see the servers were just standing around. I hope the management trains their staff to better serve their customers. read more

We got: Kids fingers 9$ -overcooked Steak and shrimp 38$- was cooked to correct temperature but tasted non seasoned and like charcoal Crab legs 28$ corn 4$ sent back- corn was feed corn tasteless and slimy/ crab legs unseasoned and butter that you dip was oil. Crab dip 15$ was actually pretty good and our server was very sweet! read more

Great food and great service. Dinner was reasonably priced and was served quickly. Location is ideal and service was professional and personable. read more

After reading reviews we were exceedingly disappointed with this place. Their rendition of bang bang shrimp used really good big shrimp but the sauce just wasn't good. We thought the shrimp basket would have nice shrimp but they served little popcorn shrimp that was nothing but breading. They have nice big shrimp so how disappointing to have little popcorn shrimp served to you instead. I would much rather have 5 or 6 nice big shrimp than 25 popcorn overbreaded shrimp. The waitress just shrugged and walked off. Just really a disappointing experience read more

Went for the annual Thanksgiving buffet. Everything was delicious. Worth the price and we will be back next year.

This place was absolutely phenomenal!!!! I went To all of the "touristy" locations and was not happy. I LOVED EVERYTHING THIS RESTAURANT HAD TO OFFER!!! Crab cakes were the freshest and most amazing I have EVER had!!! The fish was the best! Our server Kristian was on point and absolutely wonderful! DO NOT PASS THIS UP!!! read more

Stumbled across this place on way to find ice cream. Free parking! There was no wait and plenty tables and room. There were several families already eating. So it's family friendly for sure. Our waitress was super nice and helpful. I had the lobster fried tacos. Simple and light. Came with fries. Fast service. This is just a nice low key simple place- nothing fancy - and simple menu. read more

Food was ok. Conveniently located to hotel. Friendly staff. Not sure if we'd revisit the quality of food was not the greatest.

Well.... what can I say!? This place was wonderful. Everything....and I mean everything was great. The service (our waitress was the best. She said that she was new and from MIAMI), the appetizers, the entrees, the drinks and the water even tasted great! We ate here for dinner. I must admit that I wanted to go back again the next day for lunch, but I didn't want to put pressure on my traveling buddies. I can see myself taking an overnight trip to VA Beach just to dine here again. It's been a good while since we've had delicious seafood like this. And trust me, we know great seafood. We ordered the full gamut.... fish, burgers, fried shrimp, oysters, steak, chicken, salads, crab legs and alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages. Everything was absolutely amazing. From the outside, who knew that the food would be so great? Our waitress was confident that we'd love this place and she was oh so right! We had a wonderful time and made even more wonderful memories here. The only reason I'm giving four stars and not five is because the ambiance was just ok. It doesn't have to be fancy but a little more contemporary looking would really be appreciated, in my opinion. This is a 4.5 rating!! read more

Family of 4. Came in this evening and were quickly sat. Server Angel was personable and spent time chatting with us throughout our visit. Tried the fresh catch salmon, which tasted fantastic. My husband and kids all got crab cake sandwiches, which they said were good. The fries... YUM!!!!! Thanks again Angel! read more

This place is a must go after a day of shopping or biking around the beach. AMAZING little place, super affordable and super delicious! It was our favorite restaurant at the beach! We had the crab soup and had the crab leg special (pictured, yes we know how to actually eat crab legs). The cocktails were great, I had something blue. We wanted to go back and eat there again! read more

Came here on a Saturday for lunch around 1 and it was dead. I ordered the crab cake sandwich. Something I wouldn't order back home. The sandwich was pretty ok. Wife ordered the chicken fingers. They were pretty good nothing special. Wife also order last minute hush puppies. She said they were the best she has ever had. So I bump the review to 4 stars. Total cost for lunch for two meals with the puppies and two pops was around $50. Not terribly bad Our service was friendly enough. I feel like I needed to add to this review because it's short. Throughout most of the ordering and till we got our food we got to listen to the people adjacent to us talk to this older couple about their life's journey and how they got to Virginia Beach. They made plans to meet up at dinner as well. Mind you it sounded like they just met each other and I was dying to know how they just started talking to these random people that were almost double their age. I had so many questions. Guess I'll never know or find out. I would recommend this place. I would have liked to try more food. Maybe next time read more

Delicious food and drinks. Great portion servings. Make sure you arrive with an appetite. Atmosphere was great too. Customer service was outstanding. Great seafood place to eat for the entire family while visiting Virginia Beach. For sure a place that I will have to visit when in the area. Stopped by during a recent trip to Virginia. read more
