Salmon Salad

Our take-out tonight was delicious! We got a bottle of their ranch to take home, and it's the best! Everything was great all the way down to the pickle accoutrement for the sandwich. We can't wait to go back!

You just can't beat this place for brunch, lunch or dinner!....And, the nostalgia of it all. How many restaurants can you go to where almost everything you eat is homemade, even the ice cream!?? Located in the seafood, laid back small town of Urbanna, Va......Something Different does not disappointment and keeps me coming back for more when I come to this town to visit family. The smell of fresh out of the oven, raisin bread, calls your name, to take some extra back to DC. Something Different cooks all their sauces, dips, ice cream, breads and beautiful pies in house. Peanuts are roasted there too. In houses roasted coffee is served in a french press with fresh cream. We came here on a Sunday for brunch. We enjoyed beignets with our fresh coffee for starters and fresh, buttermilk biscuits. I couldn't help but to notice huge BBQ smoke out back and so I definitely knew I was going to order the rib plate. It was outstanding!! I mean everything was delicious, even the cold craft beer! In addition, we tried the "Southern Comfort" Sandwich which comes with tender, mouth-watering brisket and pimento cheese--slathered in BBQ sauce. We also tried the Crab Cakes and Soft Shell crabs with sides of spicy hoe cakes, green beans and mac & cheese, fries and onion rings. ANNNNDDD, if that was not enough food, we tried a plate of smoked wings! Being from the DC/Maryland area, the crab expectation was high. Well, this place...knocked it out of the park. It was all great...Thumbs Up!! Now top it all off with homemade ice cream from the Bakery attached to the restaurant....one word....HEAVEN!! A brunch fit for a king and nap worth for sure. We all left satisfied and.....enjoyed both the food and friendly service. If you are ever in vicinity of Urbanna VA or on a road trip passing through.....Something Different is a must and worth a visit for sure!!

The soft shell tacos have become my new favorite. They are amazing! So juicy. Something Different...you nailed it again. Urbanna would never be the same without you.

Wonderful food. I had the soft shell sandwich. Great atmosphere from a staff that knows what "hospitality" means. Highly recommend!

Smalls BBQ & Oysters in Cape Charles had been on our list for a while, and we finally made it in…read morefor a quick lunch. The smell of smoke hits you as soon as you step out of the car--which is always a great sign. We were greeted and seated quickly, and our waitress was attentive from the start. She walked us through the highlights and shared a few of her personal favorites, which was a nice touch. We kicked things off with the Oyster Rockefeller. The oysters themselves were nearly perfect, though the dish leaned a bit salty. Still, a solid start. The crab soup was good as well--also slightly on the salty side, which could just come down to personal preference. Now to the burnt ends--one of my go-to orders anywhere. I'm happy to say these didn't disappoint. Like others have mentioned, the brisket was a touch dry but still impressively tender and full of flavor. The BBQ nachos were messy in the best way and packed with flavor--definitely a hit, especially with my son. As for the slaw, we were told it would be "wet," but it's actually on the drier side, so keep that in mind depending on your preference. Overall, a really enjoyable stop with good food and friendly service. We'd definitely come back again.

Great service. Pulled pork was really. It was Carolina style. Not too tangy just how I like it…read morea you can still taste the seasoning. Beans was great too. She crab soup was delicious. Not a fan of the brisket. Slightly dry. Will come back again.

On the way back from the Tidewater area I was seeking a place for some good, local grub and saw the…read morereviews for Two Drummers and came here. The parking was packed on a weekday around 1PM and when I went inside, they were really busy, but there was plenty of seating at the bar, so I chose that. My server was great! Very friendly and helpful with the menu. She said one of her favs for lunch was their smoked meatloaf, so I chose that. I got it with a side of mac & cheese. It came out pretty quickly and looked and smelled really good. It tasted great! I love a good smoked meatloaf and this one definitely fit the bill! The mac & cheese was decent. The mashed potatoes and gravy that the meatloaf was sitting on were also really good. I have to say, I wasn't too impressed with their spicier BBQ sauce, it didn't seem spicy to me, almost tasted just like the regular BBQ sauce (wonder if someone filled the bottle with the wrong stuff?), but their mustard based sauce was excellent and I used it primarily. Overall, a great visit, I'd definitely return and would recommend stopping in! The other nice thing is they're right on Rt60, so I didn't have to get back on that horrible 64 when done, I took 60 back to 295, which is less stressful than 64 - so it was a win win!!

Back here and had a good experience…read more Food: pulled pork slider kid meal was plenty of food for a small appetite and included a drink. Side sausage was tasty and the cheeseburger meal was also good. Love the sweet bbq sauce. Service was good and we had a kind server. There are a range of tables and booths as well as outside seating. Love that the chandeliers are drums!
