So we choose to set outside with a great view of the river. It was nice to see water and small fishing boat from their patio. Dogs are allowed out side, so next time we bring the little 4 legged girl. The wait staff quickly took our drink order and was back to our table in less the two mins. My wife got a house white wine - do not get this- she said is was terrible. But I got a bottle beer and was happy. The menu is full of sandwiches, burgers, salads, seafood, and dinner specials, but we just wanted a pizza. 16" round pizza was back on our table in about 20 min. The pizza was just ok ( c+ or b-) nothing to write home about. I would say the crust was considered a medium thickness and pizza was full of pepperoni. We both ate 2 pieces each and the took 4 home for leftovers. We will be back some day to try other foods. We did see a lot of burgers being service.

Fabulous steak..fabulous shrimp. The Brussels sprout appetizer was extremely unique and the apple arugula salad was very good and a generous portion of each. We probably could have stopped there. Their house wheat beers, per hubby, were very good. I had the lemon drop martini..or should I say I had 3 they were that good! We'll be back...hungry for more!

We were seated right away, and our service was awesome from start to finish. FOOD REVIEW Thai Poppin' Shrimp 5/5 - I really appreciated Robin for making sure we had a great experience with this dish. Berry Burrata 3/5 - Not my favorite, but still decent. Asian Chicken Wraps 3/5 - This was okay, just a little too saucy for me. Fried Green Tomatoes 5/5 - One of our favorites. The pimiento cheese paired perfectly with it. Carolina Burger 4/5 - Huge portion, and my son really enjoyed it. 2nd St Burger 4/5 - Another big portion and overall really good. Kids Pizza & Tenderloins 3/5 - Decent for the kids, though the pizza bread was a bit dense. DRINKS Margarita 4/5 Prickly Pear 4/5 Robin really made our experience even better. She checked on us frequently and made sure everything came out right. The portions here are on the larger side, so I'd recommend ordering family-style if you're dining with a group. Overall, the food was great, and the service made the experience even better.

I searched for French dip in Williamsburg. Second street bistro kept coming up on ChatGPT. I looked…read moreat the menu and saw a brisket sandwich. When I got to the restaurant I asked if they had horse radish: no. Au jus: yes. I wanted a piece of Carrot cake but I thought $18 was exorbitant. I opted for the pecan pie instead. The online menu said they had some crispy chicken dinner... It was no longer part of the menu when I arrived to the restaurant.. My significant other is allergic to shellfish, and does not eat pork... There weren't a lot of entrée options for him because there was pork all over the place. I did order him some salmon since he could not get the chicken. He liked the salmon. The broccoli had no flavor on it. And the brown rice pilaf was equally Bland. The brisket sandwich was ...okay... but dipping it in French onion soup calling it onion jus.... It just pissed me off. I think the menu was overpriced for tourists. The staff seemed to be doing the best they could. I guess I'll continue my hunt for the best Friend dip in Williamsburg. I'm down here a lot.

The staff was super nice the moment we walk in the door. Our Server (Emily) was supper knowledgeable and made suggestion's that where on point. Plating was nice to look at and tasted wonderful. Rib appetizer was fell off the bone tender, better than some BBQ joints. My wife had the Nutty Chicken, Mash Potatoes and Beets with citrus. I had the Peppercorn Encrusted Tuna , Mushroom rice with zucchini. Portion size was appropriate and the flavor profile of our food could not be beat. The restaurant has quotes post on the walls from historical figures that I fell in love with, after mentioning this to our server, she gave me a printed list of all the quotes. Thanks for a great dinning experience!!

The beet salad was earthy in a good way with a great mix of beets, nuts, brie cheese,and fresh greens. The smoked chicken was not dry with a smoked flavor .
