The stockpot is a cozy restaurant in the Virginia Beach Vibe district…read more I stopped in to check out their menu and enjoy a cup of coffee. The staff is all extremely friendly and made several suggestions. I didn't have time to enjoy a meal but they have a variety of healthy choices to chose from and rotating drafts! Stockpot has a small area to sit outside and a large bar that gives you direct views into the kitchen. I really enjoyed their vibe here and want to return for their food.

I'm not usually one to leave negative reviews because I know how tough the restaurant industry can…read morebe. Im also usually a huge fan of Stockpot, as I frequent the one in Norfolk. I'm a chef myself and travel to different restaurants regularly, so I try to be understanding. That said, the service we experienced yesterday at Stock Pot was unfortunately some of the worst I've had in quite a while. We sat outside, and it honestly felt like we were being deliberately ignored. The restaurant wasn't busy, yet we had to wait long stretches just to get basic things. At one point near the end of our meal, we asked for a box and our check. Instead of bringing it over, the waitresses stood around talking with other waitresses, while we continued to wait. After sitting there for quite a while, we eventually had to ask for the check and box, a second time. Throughout the meal the service was inconsistent. We had three different waitresses checking on us, but were left to sit for about 30 minutes alone at one point, and it took almost 20 to have our order taken, once we ordered, we had to request our appetizer again, after waiting another 20 or so minutes. Upon asking, again, we found out they were out of part of the appetizer we ordered. After that it came out quick. The food, however, was excellent and definitely the highlight of the experience. That's why this review is disappointing to write -- the kitchen is clearly doing a great job. I just hope the service side improves, because it didn't match the quality of the food.

The type of dishes they serve are Burmese food, which I never tried before. Would my first try be a home run or a strikeout? Walking inside, you can tell it was very chilled and laid back. They have a few tables and the decor is really nice. Very intimate for yours truly. Once we got settled, it was time for ordering. For apps, we had fresh shrimp spring rolls. Very good and full of ingredients. The peanut butter sauce was really creamy. A great condiment to the rolls indeed. The icing on the cake....Shan Khow Swae, which is their Burmese chicken noodle soup. It was absolutely delicious. Curry chicken in chicken broth topped with crushed peanuts....this was made with a lot of love. This came in handy on a rainy Winter day like yesterday. You know what I'm gonna say next: this will be a repeat. A wonderful visit all around. Till next time :)

The restaurant is beautifully adorned with stunning beach murals that instantly transport you right to the coast it is a truly bright and captivating atmosphere. I also quite adore the design, which allows you to feel seamlessly connected to the artistry of the kitchen. The hospitality was entirely top-tier. My delightful server, Samantha, greeted me with the warmest welcome and expertly suggested a Bloody Mary to start, which was mixed to absolute perfection. To accompany my drink, I ordered the oysters, and they were flawlessly selected, beautifully fresh, and utterly divine. Samantha's attentive service was nothing short of immaculate throughout the entire afternoon. The location is spectacular, though I will note that parking can be a bit of a challenge toward the end. However, the exceptional caliber of the cuisine and service makes it entirely worthwhile. A completely satisfying experience I will most certainly be returning

I always get the hot tea, a great start to the meal. Overall, I think the seafood fried rice is okay, I'd rather go for another meat like chicken or beef. They have pancit, which was decent. The mapo tofu is very tasty, but I wish there was more ground beef. Spice level was decent, but I would like it spicier. The garlic eggplant is one of my favsssssss!!!! A sweet soy sauce/oyster sauce taste. The Peking duck is very good, skin is crispy. The char siu pork is also very flavorful. THE WALNUT SHRIMP, it's always a winner. This is my husband's favorite. The white sauce just pairs so well with fried shrimp. The dumplings and Rangoons are thick. The dumplings are covered in sweet soy sauce. Very tasty. The pork belly was crispy just like Filipino lechon. I really enjoyed the custard buns. I do love that they have dim sum available to order all day. We have been here many times, and the dishes are always very good. They put a lot on the plate. This is definitely a place for family style. A must try!! We will be back.

I ordered the spicy umami miso ramen with tofu, karaage, and a soft-boiled egg, and it was absolutely delicious--rich, comforting, and full of flavor. I'll admit I went a little overboard with the add-ons, but I was just too excited and couldn't resist. It's a hidden gem tucked into a shopping center and easy to miss from the main road, but there's plenty of parking and once you're inside it's much more spacious than it looks. The staff were friendly, service was quick, and everything came out fresh. Prices were very reasonable too, especially for the portion sizes and quality. There's also a wide menu beyond ramen, so I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more. Before leaving, I grabbed a brown sugar boba milk tea too. I was already full, so I saved it for later--but even then, it was still really good. Overall, a great first experience--I'll definitely be returning!

I absolutely love this spot because it's never super busy, the ambiance is nice and the service is always great. I ordered the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen w/Oxtail and an extra soft, boiled egg. It was served very quickly and it was great. The broth was savory, the oxtail was tender and the noodles were perfect. I ate the entire bowl. Unfortunately, a few hours later, I didn't feel that great. I'm not sure if the pork or oxtail were bad but something did not agree with my stomach at all. I felt awful! That was the first time I had that experience with their food so I don't want to count them out but it may be a while before I return.

My friends and I got different eggs benedicts and they were all amazing, I wish the one I got had more crab or some greens in it, but still delicious. My friends got the Swanky Benedict and it was better imo -- the chicken was super good and it was def more filling. The service was a little slow, maybe because we were outside, but we didn't mind too much because the weather was nice.

Came here tonight for dinner. I had looked at the menu before I got there, and was unsure of what…read moresalad to order since most of them sounded great. I ended up on the combo of their soup and salad since their soup also sounded good. I was hesitant on the strawberries in the wine country salad since I know they're not in season really, but they were lovely. Everything in the salad worked well together and the dressing was nice and vinegary while still tasting of raspberries. It was very well balanced except for the ratio of toppings to greens. I feel as though there was just a little too much toppings. It could've used more leafs. As for the soup, it was a little bland, but after adding salt and pepper it tasted nice. It was mostly soup rather than crab or corn though. That was my only critique really, the temperature was good as well. It could've used some crackers on the side, but it wasn't necessary, just would've been a nice touch. Our waitress was quite nice, checked up on us and got us refills. All of our food came out together and hot. The sandwiches on other people's plates all looked wonderful, and after having a shoestring fry, I can definitely say next time I will be ordering some of those. As far as ambiance goes, it was nicely lit but still moody, which was appreciated. Very chill in there. Only reason I rate it 3 stars is because I feel as though there's room for improvement food wise, and price wise. $20+ for almost everything on the menu is pretty ridiculous. Even for some of the simple items. I don't think the food is that good, proportionately appropriate, or creative to be that much money. Maybe it's just me, but that's how I feel. I'll probably be back to try more items, I'd recommend coming here at least once to try if you haven't, during happy hour to get the best prices if you can.
