Eggs Scramble
Sylvie C.

Love love loved my visit here with the Great J David! My oh my I have no idea what I have been missing out on! The egg scramble here is incredible as was the biscuit with the blueberry preserves. Everything tasted fresh and AMAZING. The customer service was nice and friendly too. Parking free and easy. Seriously, what is there not to love about this place?!

Got it! Here's a polished Yelp-style review that includes ambience and staff friendliness: --- The Stock Pot Review The Stock Pot is always a favorite of mine. Every time I visit, I have to order the OG Fried Rice! !t's my go-to dish. On my last visit, it was a little heavily seasoned compared to other times, but still absolutely delicious. The drinks here are consistently good, which makes the meal even better. The only downside is the drinking water, it's never quite up to par and always leaves me a bit disappointed. That said, the inside of the restaurant is really nice. The ambience is warm, inviting, and makes it a great place to sit down and enjoy a meal. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, which adds to the overall experience. Despite the small hiccups, The Stock Pot remains a spot I'll keep coming back to, especially for that OG Fried Rice!

Tucked just off 19th Street near the Oceanfront, The Stockpot is one of those spots that manages to feel like a hidden gem even in a busy area. One of the best surprises? They actually have a private parking lot, which is almost unheard of that close to the beach - definitely a win if you've ever tried to parallel park at the Oceanfront in the summer. I went with a friend and we split the Trio Dip Platter to start, super fresh and colorful. It came with a solid scoop of chicken salad, creamy green pea hummus, crunchy cucumber and celeste veggies, warm pita slices, and a small side of tzatziki. It was light but satisfying, and a great sharable option if you want to sample a few things without getting weighed down. For my main, I ordered the Chifrito Salad Bowl, and honestly, I was not ready for how huge and hearty it was. The bowl was practically overflowing, packed with flavor, and the pork carnitas were seriously next level: tender, juicy, and falling apart in the best way. It was one of those rare salads that doesn't feel like a compromise. My friend went for Anne's Chicken Noodle Soup, which had a bit of a twist with soba noodles. She couldn't stop talking about how good the broth was, super savory and comforting without being too heavy. Overall, The Stockpot feels like a place that genuinely cares about fresh ingredients and thoughtful prep. Whether you're a local or just spending a beach weekend, it's absolutely worth a stop.

Breakfast Tagine. Sooo good
Melissa M.

Came here for brunch this morning and everything was amazing. I am reed a blood orange mimosa and the Baja skillet breakfast. The food was so delicious. The employees are always so nice and friendly. I love having w this restaurant is so small and intimate. I always like to sit at the bar when I'm dining in. One of my favorite brunch places.

brookie
Mia L.

Great spot! I've been here twice and have had good experiences. More recently, I got the avo toast-- this was delicious and I would order it again (they were super generous with the avocado which I appreciated. The balsamic-like taste also made it tasty). The brookie I ordered was quite dry and I couldn't bring myself to finish it. When the waitress said they had hot chai, I was expecting a latte not a cup of tea, but I guess that was on me. Last time, I got the chicken noodle soup which was super flavorful and unique. The staff is very friendly. The vibe of the restaurant is cool too-- very warm and relaxing. I thought the pricing was pretty fair too. Recommend to anyone in the area!

Loved it here! Took a quick drive a little ways from the beach because there were lines everywhere for breakfast. Found the Stockpot. Nice people, great food. Known for their toasties, different flavors each day. We got one to try-Mac and cheese & pork belly was the flavor. It's like an uncrustable. Delicious! Breakfast was fantastic.

Ramen Night
Vyvy H.

This is probably my 10th visit in the past year alone. I absolutely love this place. Especially on a day with perfect weather, you can sit outside on the covered patio and enjoy mimosas! Mimosas 5/5: I've lost track of all the flavors I've tried. But my favorite is the lavender! OG fried rice 6/5: I can't help but get the same dish every time. It's just too good. The rice is so good and crispy! Rosemary biscuits 5/5: I first tried this with their soup of the day. In the fall they have butternut squash soups. They'll had a small cut of their biscuit to the order. You can order the biscuits alone, they're sooooo good and made fresh. They also have drink happy hours each day of the week' not sure what times since I never make it. Breakfast specials from 7-10am, includes coffee and sandwich for only $7! They also have food specials such as ramen or paella. I just follow along on social media to find out the special. Limited but free parking. Otherwise street parking but very walkable and close. If you're at the convention center it's only a short walk over.

Avo Toast**
Lauren T.

I visited the Stockpot twice in one day! I was in the area for a conference and stopped in before for breakfast. My avocado toast was very hefty and hearty. The bacon was divine. I came back with the group I was with for lunch. I had the Cypress sandwich and soup. Very much so recommend the mushroom miso soup and my country ham sandwich was very good. Everyone in my group also enjoyed their meals. We got there before noon and were seated quickly. As we were leaving, around 12:30 it was quite busy and there was a wait. However we never felt rushed and were welcomed the entire time. Both times the service was impeccable. Can't wait to go back!

Turkish Breakfast** with blood orange juice & coffee
Ian M.

These folks knock it out of the ballpark every single time. What an amazing place to enjoy a meal. Surrounded by happy house plants and nice decor and wonderful culinary scents, this place was the best find in Virginia Beach ever...! Since I'm not local, I feel drawn to my all time favorite breakfast, the Turkish breakfast (pictured) AMAZING array of flavors and choices. I always add the lamb patty and falafel. It's hard to finish, but I give it my damnedest...! They also have exotic juices, like the pictured blood orange juice available. The servers are very personable and take great care of all patrons! Enjoy this amazing restaurant experience!

OG fried rice.
Adam P.

Wow. The OG Fried rice was amazing. The speedy hot sauce was good with it too. My wife got the egggs scrambled and wished she had gotten mine. Hers was fine but mine was filled with flavor. Everyone was nice and glad we stopped in. They support local which is nice and have a few beers on tap and mimosas. Would definitely go back.

corned beef hash
Amatullah B.

After a truly disappointing culinary journey through Virginia Beach, the Stockpot was a nice ending. I got the corn beef hash and cypress salad. I recommend skipping the basic bagged salad. The hash was pretty good. They did not skimp on the meat; I took some home after I got tired of chewing. I thought the dish could have used more kale.

Bone Broth
Nancy H.

Really enjoyed our breakfast here. Ambiance is cozy, staff is super welcoming and attentive, food is the perfect mix of comfort favorites and unique creations. I loved the pumpkin yogurt granola parfait and also really enjoyed the warm bone broth. I was surprisingly not as impressed by their fried rice, which seems to be one of the most popular items. I would definitely come back for the parfait, which I didn't expect to love as much. Overall, great spot!

Chicken Noodle. WoW!!
Matthew B.

Everything was absolutely phenomenal! The OH Fried rice is SOOOOOO complex! The ramen was excellent as well!! Service was fast, friendly & very informative. We sat outside & it was nice!!

Brilliant idea. The hostess took our name and phone number and we received a txt when our table was ready. The hostess was very friendly and attentive. The ambiance was amazing. Since it is mainly a seafood restaurant the aesthetic was ocean or bay themed. They had great decorations of coral reef and other things found in the ocean around the restaurant. They had a great seating area for patrons who were waiting for a table. The service was impeccable. Our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Since it was our first time at this restaurant we were unsure about what we should order. She gave great suggestions. We ordered the fried oysters, oyster burger, and shrimp with vegetables and eggs. We also ordered a pineapple crush and the localizer. The food was very flavorful and fresh. The oyster burger was very unique it had a fried oyster on top of the patty which was great. It was cooked to perfection and very juicy. The fried oysters were great as well. They came with Pita bread and spinach dip to make an oyster sandwich. Amazing!!! The drinks were on point as well. They weren't too strong but they weren't weak either. I recommend trying out this restaurant if you are in the area. It is totally worth the wait.

Easily enough for four people. I had the shrimp and grits with scallops, and it was hands down the best thing I've eaten all year. The chocolate espresso martini was the perfect complement to my meal. My wife loved her spicy margarita and described the French toast as beautifully balanced with fresh, warm flavors. This is a must-stop every time we come to VA. Highly recommend.

We made a special trip to Rustic Spoon for my husband's birthday because their website listed…read morescotch eggs, which was something he'd been craving forever and that we hadn't been able to find anywhere around town. It happened to be Restaurant Week, which made us a little nervous, but it ended up being totally fine. The dining room never felt overly crowded, the noise level was comfortable, and having the Restaurant Week prix fixe, drink specials, and regular menu all available gave us plenty of options without feeling overwhelming. One small note: the plastic logo cups served with the water decanter felt a little out of place. They were a bit sharp on the lips and didn't quite match the rest of the dining experience. Minor detail, but noticeable. The drinks, however, were excellent. On our server's recommendation, my husband ordered the Gingerbread Old Fashioned and I had the Salted Caramel Martini. Both were seasonal specials and both were fantastic. When we asked about the scotch eggs, our server explained they're normally a brunch-only item. We were a little disappointed (and may have made a few pouty faces while explaining we'd come specifically for them for his birthday), but we quickly let it go, it obviously wasn't her fault. What we didn't realize was that she went back and told the kitchen manager that it was his birthday and that we'd made the trip just for those scotch eggs. Since the kitchen wasn't slammed, they decided to make them anyway and surprised us with an order. We were honestly floored. My husband was thrilled. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. And the scotch eggs were exactly what he'd been hoping for! They were crispy on the outside with a rich, savory center. For entrées, his Nashville Hot Chicken was juicy with the perfect amount of heat without being overwhelming. My Haystack Burger was stacked and delicious, though the BBQ sauce was strong enough to overshadow the pickled green tomato a bit. The fries were fantastic - crispy, battered, and perfect from first bite to last. Our server checked in at all the right times and kept drinks refilled without us needing to ask. The fact that she went out of her way to do something special during one of the busiest weeks on a restaurant's calendar says a lot about both her and the restaurant. Rustic Spoon is the kind of place that works just as well for a casual date night as it does for a birthday dinner or a night out with friends.

Appetizer: Try the biscuits with the sweet potato spread! Total quantity of 2. Dinner: Ended up with the catfish / whiting. Most comfort food probably has a lot of salt attached to it and not an everyday cuisine. Nevertheless, it was still good! The service was good as well. No complaints or attitudes from the server. It wasn't as busy as previous people reported which was nice. Enjoyed the art on the wall with the music vibe. Would repeat again with the other new restaurants located near the oceanfront. Best to always make a reservation with parking not directly in front of the restaurant but not too far of a walk. Overall 8.9/10

Service was fast, friendly, and very attentive to our table throughout the visit. I ordered the chicken and biscoff waffles and listen... that biscoff cookie butter infused waffle was AMAZING!! Sweet, flavorful, and honestly the star of the plate. I would absolutely order the waffle again. The chicken drumettes, however, were a little bland and lacked seasoning for me personally. Once I added hot sauce, honey, salt, and pepper, it brought the chicken to life and tasted much better. My daughter ordered the smothered chicken and biscuits, butter biscuits topped with cheesy eggs, fried chicken, and cajun cream sauce. The picture below may not look the most appetizing, but don't let that fool you because this dish was packed with flavor! The only downside was the eggs were a bit overcooked. My daughter is picky about eggs, so next time she said she'll ask for them lightly scrambled or over medium. Now let's talk about the drinks lol. I love a good hot cup of coffee and they did NOT miss with the coffee. Smooth, hot, and flavorful. My daughter also said the sweet tea was really good. Overall, I'd definitely come back, especially for that Biscoff waffle alone!

I already knew this was my destination as I had been following them since they opened in VB. Upon our arrival we found the Cafe about a 1/4th of the way full so I had hopes for breakfast in a quiet setting. Even though there was a steady flow of traffic, we were able to dine in a relaxed setting without feeling rushed. I mention this because with it being a holiday weekend full of Jeepers, I fully expected them to be packed. The wait to order was too long as it left me staring at the pastry window so long I almost ordered one of everything however; I refrained from doing so but still bought 4 pastries, French toast & seasoned potatoes. Yes yes, alot of food for 1 person but I still had 2 days left in my visit and well, I have a thing for pastries. The pastries were: mango & passion fruit eclair, a pineapple muffin, lemon raspberry cake & profiteroles. I loved everything with the exception of the eclair. It wasn't anything against the eclair, it's just the mango/passionfruit mixture was just too passionate for my tastes. The muffin reminded me of my own homemade upside pineapple cake without all the brown sugar. It was light and buttery. The Lemon raspberry slice was delightful & not the least bit tart or too sweet. A mixture of both flavors without either one overpowering the other. The cake was super moist, perfect. The profiteroles were my favorite. They reminded me of that feeling I had the 1st time I tasted them while living in Italy. The choux perfectly baked and so delightfully light. The French toast was good enough without the side of syrup. The star for me of the breakfast items were the potatoes. I LOVED them. They were served HOT, seasoned just right with their insides softer that a baby bottom. I coulda just ordered 2 servings of those & bypassed the toast. All in all, well worth the wait. The folks were friendly, the Cafe clean and the seating plentiful and comfortable. I would recommend this place for both pastries & French toast & spuds.
