Excellent, food, service and the view even at night was awesome. Make reservations and if is so worth your time. Sorry no pictures we were visiting a friend and we never stopped talking. We revisited for our breakfast meal and it was so worth getting up at 6:00 am. The view is spectacular. My omelet was made to order so I called it a corrupted veggie and my spouse two eggs, sausage and a muffin. The coffee was very fresh as was the sunshine even while outside was 20 degrees we were warm and toasty. Tyler was a delight, pleasant and full of smiles. She made our morning as much as the sunshine outside. read more

We had a good time at Skyline Restaurant. The food was very good quality, and the staff were sweet and attentive. The lights kept flickering outside but they got it fixed, and it was a bit loud but it was a Saturday night. Had the chocolate parfait special for dessert! read more

Outstanding dining experience Skyline Restaurant at the top of The Virginian Hotel in Lynchburg exceeded every expectation. Our table ordered a wide variety of dishes, including the chef's special miso-glazed salmon, chef's special New York strip with Brussels sprouts, trout, scallops, chicken Caesar salad, fish and chips, shrimp tacos, and the seafood pasta--and every single item was exceptional. Truly a 10/10 across the board. The food quality, presentation, and portion sizes made this an excellent value for the price. The atmosphere is comfortable yet elevated, with a fun, upscale vibe that feels perfect for both special occasions and a relaxed night out. The drink menu is extensive and vibrant, offering something for every preference. A special shout-out to Peter, the head chef for the evening--outstanding work. Highly recommend Skyline for anyone looking for great food, drinks, and atmosphere in Lynchburg. read more

Very good food, outstanding service, seems to be one of the hot spots in Lynchburg for drinks and dining. The view is nice, but downtown Lynchburg isn't really much to look at. Our waitress was a joy, and the manager came by a couple of times to ensure we were satisfied with everything (we were). We both had specials: my wife had halibut, I had lamb over pasta, both were very good. Would definitely go back. read more

Skyline - In-house cheesecake this place is amazing. - New American Near Me - Lynchburg, Virginia

i was in town out Lynchburg for work and stayed at The Virginian. knowing i needed to decide on dinner, but didn't feel like going far, i decided to make my way to the rooftop restaurant. The Skyline. i will start off with the view was pretty cool. i love a little rooftop vibe. i will start by saying the service started off a little rocky. i was handed a menu and left to fend for myself , meaning .... the server literally didn't come back to ask if i needed anything (i was also sitting at the bar), but i did let her know when i was ready to order. now, they do not have a happy hour here which kind of sucks bc i believe the steakhouse at the bottom of the hotel does. doesn't make much sense . i got something equivalent of a spicy margarita and it was delicious. i also ordered to crab cake appetizers and the mac & cheese , BOTH delicious. the crab cakes were a little small, but that was to be expected . but they also give you a generous portion of the mac & cheese. i will say overall i had a pretty good experience here, and if im ever back in town and staying at this hotel .... i would go back read more

Great atmosphere. Food was definitely 4-stars. Not over the top, or quite 5-stars. Prices are very fair for both the food and drinks. Waite staff seem to have too many tables to give adequate coverage. Never came back to ask if we wanted another round of drinks. Overall a good experience though. read more

I rarely write reviews, but after tonight at Skyline, I feel obligated to share what my wife and I experienced. Annalise, our server, was fantastic -- one of the best we've had. Attentive, pleasant, and truly great at her job. Unfortunately, the evening took a hard turn when she came to deliver our check visibly shaken and in tears. My wife stepped in to comfort her and we learned she had been reprimanded by manager Jamie Bryant -- a man whose rude and unwelcoming demeanor we had already noticed throughout the evening. We spoke directly to Jamie Hagey about what happened, hoping management would show some empathy and concern. We were wrong. Our conversation with Mr. Hagey left us feeling exactly the same way -- that management here does not care about their staff. It was a discouraging and frustrating exchange that only reinforced our disappointment. We will not be back. Mr. Parry, if you are reading this -- please look into what is happening at your restaurant. Your staff deserves better, and so do your customers. read more

I ate here two nights in a row and I gotta tell you the second night was even better than the first. The ambience is trendy and new, but still comfortable. It's a great rooftop establishment on top of the Virginia hotel. The hotel itself is gorgeous amazing and staffed by very friendly people. I was here for a tradeshow and enjoyed the ambience and the architecture. My favorite dish on the whole menu was the pimento and cheese grits topped with undo sausage and shrimp, think of it as jambalaya over cheese grits. The next night I ordered the pork ribeye, but I asked the chef to put some of the cheese grits on my plate. If you look at the pictures, you will notice that he did more than just put some of it on my plate, he made it my whole plate. It was amazing. I've got to make this when I get home. It is a absolute wonderful dish. The crispy fried pork belly is also outstanding as were the scallops wrapped in bacon. The chef is a Cajun. He knows what he's doing. The rooms in this hotel are spacious, the bedroom is about half again as large as your typical hotel room, the bathroom and the powder room are separated by door, and the bathroom is very well appointed with a beautiful standup shower. I mean you can't ask for a better hotel restaurant combination it's a gorgeous place. read more

The staff was warm and my server BG was very attentive and helpful with any questions I had. I went on a Thursday evening, it was quiet and peaceful with dim lighting, totally a vibe for a date or solo date. The seared tuna appetizer was tasty, but I am a sashimi lover so I didn't mind that it didn't have the most flavor. It was a delicate start leading into a flavorful entree. The Mahi-Mahi had amazing flavor and I was pleasantly surprised by the corn relish it had a tasty balsamic dressing. My only quibble is that the Mahi was on the tougher side, depending on how you like your fish specify if you don't want it cooked so long. After dinner I enjoyed tea on the patio and the staff made sure it was lit for me. I would come back! read more

One of my favorite high-end experiences in Lynchburg I come here often for business dinners or dinners for special occasions with friends always a top into experience with great tasting food. I do wish they had better hours for earlier services read more

We live in North Carolina, which is just about an hour away, but we enjoy eating here. It has a pretty relaxed vibe, is always clean, and has excellent food. Plus, the service is always perfect. They have a few outside areas, one on each side of the restaurant. The outside area closest to the restaurant entrance is more for having drinks and has a large circular fire pit. The other side is much larger with tables and chairs for eating. The restaurant also boasts a nice view (it's a rooftop establishment). During the winter, it gets frigit with the wind, but once it's spring, summer, or fall, it's quite lovely. The last time we were here, our waiter brought our dessert to us as we sat beside the fire pit, enjoying it's warmth as it was still a bit chilly. Highly recommended. read more

Skyline - Got here right at 4 when they open. - New American Near Me - Lynchburg, Virginia

The views of the city were amazing from this restaurant. The inside was very warm and welcoming. I got the succulently sour drink, the skyline burger, and the apple crisp. The drink was not well balanced as far as flavor, but the burger and apple crisp were great. I will be back the next time I visit Lynchburg. This is a gem in the city and I'm so happy I found it! read more

Skyline is more of a restaurant than just a bar, but it's one of the nicest rooftop spots in downtown Lynchburg. The view is great, and the outdoor seating areas with fireplaces make for a really nice atmosphere, especially in the evenings. The drinks are solid, and the food is very good -- the baked brie and steak salad are my personal favorites. It's a little pricier than some other rooftop options in town, but the food is definitely a step up and feels a bit more upscale overall. Great spot for a nice night out with great views! read more

This is a great restaurant located on the rooftop of the elegant Virginian Hotel located in the heart of Lynchburg. The service is professional and attentive, the ambiance is warm and welcoming. The inside area can be a little loud but there are plenty of seating options outside. The food is amazing, I have the filet special that was presented on a bed of risotto and pared with some shrimp. Everything was cooked to perfection and had amazing flavor. I would totally recommend this place for a great dinner with a beautiful view. read more

Skyline - View from the outdoor patio - New American Near Me - Lynchburg, Virginia

I hate I didn't get to really experience the Skyline vibe as planned. I checked into The Virginian Lynchburg on a Friday a little after 4. I got settled into my room and eventually took a significant nap. I met my family later that evening for dinner. I was only able to grab a drink before the bar/ restaurant closed at 10 pm. So with about 20 mins to spare. I ordered a peach margarita and it was perfect! Not too sweet. The bartender was nice and even offered last call. My one drink was the perfect night cap. Next visit I plan to try some food, take in more of the rooftop views and have more than one cocktail. I really enjoyed my brief visit to Skyline!! read more

I was not very impressed with this Restaurant/Bar. When you walk in from the hotel downstairs, (using the elevator) the host is standing there next to the bar. There is not a host stand or a sign dictating what to do upon arrival. Upon looking at the menu very few items intrigued me. The employees at the time varied from extremely helpful to being extremely a burden. The hostess (even without the hostess stand or spot) was very polite and considerate to the bewilderment of confusion upon arrival. The server was very friendly and kind, but didn't offer recommendations when we were seated. Now the bar set up and the drinks experience. The bartender wasn't beyond friendly for someone you'd expect running the scene. He also was very skilled at the drink making and put on a nice show. I do have to say for the price of the drinks, it wasn't delicious even if quality ingredients and quality liquor was used. Would I come back to Skyline? I would have to say no I would not. If I was staying in the hotel, yes I would for the utter convenience nothing more. read more

Skyline's our favorite rooftop restaurant in Lynchburg. It's located atop the very historical and beautiful Virginian Hotel. They're open from 4-10 pm. We didn't have a reservation. It was a last minute decision, but they were still able to accommodate me, my husband and our 2 year-old granddaughter. I had the Crispy Pork Belly Banh Mi which comes with Black Pepper Parmesan Fries. The pork belly's flavorful. It's crispy on the outside and tender inside. It goes well with the cucumber, arugula, cilantro, jalapeño, pickled carrot, pickled onion and chili sauce. The black pepper Parmesan fries are absolutely delicious!! Have to warn you, they're addictive!! Lol After our dinner, we decided to go on the patio that has Adirondack chairs and fire pit to enjoy the views and our dessert. We shared the chocolate cake that has a ganache topping, chocolate sauce and whipped cream. It's very rich and delicious! We also had vanilla ice cream that was presented in a shape of a rose. Nice detail! Overall, our experience was great! We can't wait to go back! read more

Yum The cocktails were amazing but expensive. ($14-22) The crab-cake was perfectly cooked and real crab. The salad was huge and loved the honey mustard vinaigrette dressing. The salmon didn't stand a chance. It was gone in minutes! Best salmon I've had in a long time. The service was great and fast. We had a reservation and we were sat right away. The apple tart dessert was in-cred-ible!!!!!!!!!! Clean, Classy, with a view! read more

The food was fine (fried oyster app was amazing and so was the coconut daquari). This 5 star review is about Jamie. We didn't have a reservation so we sat outside (best table in the house) and so no waiter was assigned to us. He went above and beyond to make it a great night. Fun, great recommendations, and took pride in his work. I love people who care about their work. He did. read more

Despite what their website says, Skyline is no longer the only rooftop restaurant in the city. Food is delicious, with ample pescatarian options. Prices align to being associated with a hotel. Most of the wine selections are uncommon and international. Mixed drinks were well made. Staff is very friendly and capable, however, they were understaffed. The manager made no efforts to connect with customers. Decent views. Extra large fire pit. The establishment could do with a refresh, considering the Curio Collection which it is partnered with. read more

The food was amazing. We sat at the bar and had great service by the young man bartending. The ambiance was elevated casual which was what we were looking for that evening.

I came here with my cousins for the first time last weekend. I was in town for my bridal shower and was given a tour de Lynchburg of a bunch of her favorite spots. Seated pretty on the the top of The Virginian, with a stunning view and quaint atmosphere it's perfect for a girls night out or date night. It took us a while to reach the restaurant as the because the elevator was moving at a snails pace. Our waitress Savannah was great! The rose we ordered came in a can which was off putting. It was really good but $15 for canned rosé?? Next we opted for a French 75 which was not on the menu. French 75s are my fav but this one left alot to be desired. It was way too lemon and gin forward. The bar could use some help but whoever was in the back cooking knew their stuff! I ordered the special which was described as "ribeye on a bed of ginnochi in a mushroom truffle sauce ". The "ribeye" was actually pork.. I've never heard pork described like that so I thought I was getting steak. None the less it was absolutely delicious! read more

Several people recommended this place so we had to go! It's a rooftop restaurant at the Virginian hotel. The valet at the door helped us out of the car and was very attentive to my 82 year old mother. The building is a renovated historical building. It was beautiful! The restaurant had a chill cozy ambience. The only disappointment was the rainy weather kept the outside area closed. Our waitress was fabulous! We went for dinner and it was also happy hour. The rosemary gin spritz ($8) from the happy hour menu a fun cocktail. The strawberry margarita was also good. I also had a cherry vanilla whiskey cocktail from the regular menu that was delicious. The cocktails were all made very well. The salad from the happy hour menu ($4) was a good size and had fresh lettuce and other veggies. The burger was juicy and cooked perfectly. The fries were hit and crispy. The mahi mahi was also cooked perfectly. The flavors of the corn relish paired well with the fish. From the time we entered the restaurant til the time we left, the experience was excellent! read more

What a great experience! Service was fantastic but the food was even better. The salmon received great reviews, but I can't give the stuffed trout enough praise!

Inside the historic Virginia Hotel at the very top. It was too windy for us to sit outside that night, but I'm sure the view is great. Made a reservation and was seated immediately. Decided to do appetizers, sides and dessert along with drinks and everything was delicious! I would highly recommended for a special date night or girls night out. read more

We have eaten at the Skyline many times as we ALWAYS stay at The Virginian which is our favorite hotel. We LOVE the panko crusted oyster as an appetizer and last night we had the shrimp and grits. They were without a doubt the BEST we've ever had. We travel quite a bit and have tried shrimp and grits everywhere. The service is always great and the rest of the food is wonderful too. There is also an amazing outdoor area with fire pits to keep you warm and a panoramic view of the city. If you are visiting Lynchburg, it is a must see! read more

The ambiance was wonderful and very refreshing. The service was phenomenal and the food was ok. The is really what makes the rating go down.

The outdoor patio was closed for service and we didn't have reservations. Fortunately a party was leaving the bar as we arrived. If we had a seat on the patio on a warm evening or just a better seat, my critique might be different. As it was we sat in front of the elevators and hostess station at the end of the bar. No t.v. screen to watch anything. Our view consisted of 3 small plants on a shelf. To add insult to injury, the young lady next to us who was just drinking water received more attention from all the waiters -- w/ elbows leaning on the bar -- than any other customer at the bar. I understand biology, but come on. Our tab was $60+, hers was $0. Time for some professionalism Skyline. The food was good, but too expensive for all we had to put up with. read more

High on a hill!! Our first visit. Perfect cool night on the evening of the fireworks in Lynchburg. 7 pm reservation which got us back to our AirBNB in time to watch the fireworks from our deck along the River. If Christopher is your server consider yourself fortunate- very attentive, knowledgeable and checked back regularly Especially when we wanted another round of drinks. -Rum runner...with a twist! Loved the blackberry & pomegranate in it. -who doesn't love a spinach & artichoke appetizer? Done with a crusty cheese finish & warm pita bread. Not a bite left. -grilled shrimp salad: HUGE & the shrimp cooked perfectly. Asked for some cheese on the salad & great goat cheese crumbles were perfect. -Fiance polished off his mahi-mahi with grilled corn relish. Clean plate club What a treat coming here.
