The fries were crispy, which is hard to do with crinkle cut, the jacked sauce was awesome! The burgers were cooked perfectly and served in a waxed bag which made the buns perfectly steamed and warm. The servers were absolutely amazing, explained the menu and assured us that they could adjust the menu to our liking. Will definitely go back!

We arrived at around 6pm and the only seat remaining was in the corner with the speakers right behind us, playing good (but loud) music. Too loud for discussion, we enjoyed our phones while eating and drinking this evening. I enjoyed their "Taking Water" light lager and Mrs. K. consumed two of their mocktails. With it, the "White Noise" pizza topped with caramelized onions, spinach, ricotta and banana peppers was a treat. Big enough to share and not be overly stuffed. Two squares each was enough. It's a family-friendly spot with great drinks and great pizza. A very good spot, just find a seat further away from the music blasting and it'll be perfect for all.

We visited on a Sunday in July that coincided with orientation at JMU. Maybe that is why it was…read morevery busy around dinner time. We waited a bit and eventually got a table. The staff seemed a little overwhelmed but they were doing their best and we got menus before too long. I had the Negative Boogie which was excellent and my wife had the Hop Forward which was out of this world. We both got the pizza which was ok but a little too bready for me. I wouldn't get it again but I am also not saying it is bad, just not my cup of tea. Our daughter got the pizza rolls which were very nice. All in all, a great experience in a cool space. We will definitely be back next time we are in Harrisonburg!

We also had a pint of Hoptimization of course. Overall I wish they had a few less trying-so-hard beers and a few more ales or lagers, but we really enjoyed it and would definitely go back again.

The Ridge Room is basically the reason we choose the Hyatt Place--twice a year, on our trek between…read moreSouth Carolina and New York, we make sure to stop here on both the northbound and southbound legs. The bartenders are consistently on point, which is important when you've been traveling long enough to consider a properly made cocktail a basic human right. The farm-to-table small plates are usually terrific too. Every now and then, a dish may wander off the culinary trail, but honestly, four out of five plates are the kind that make you look at each other and say, "Why don't we live here?" And then there's the rooftop view. At first, you may have to look past the sea of retail stores and parking lots--but once your eyes reach the mountains on the horizon, the view is downright spectacular. Great drinks, very good food, and mountain scenery that manages to rise above the shopping center below: that is a rooftop restaurant worth planning a road trip around.

I heard great things about this place and was very enthusiastic to visit...however, though the food…read morewas pretty solid the service was quite lacking. I have found the front staff and the wait staff to be lacking in their consideration towards restaurant guests. It seems that they are picking and choosing whom they choose to grant a great experience to. Service: The front staff and waitress we had carried an air of attitude when dealing with me and my family. It seemed like they were not keen to accommodate a few of our basic requests which essentially boiled down to laziness. To be honest, they are very petty when it comes to getting a table on their rooftop...when my family (of 5) came in, they told us it was first come first serve and sat us inside. Another family came in with 3-4 adults and 2 kids after we were seated, to which they promptly moved them outside even though they were inside as well when a spot opened up. I'm not truly understanding the mentality of service here and frankly thought for a nice establishment there would be better decorum and attitude towards guests. Food: overall pretty good. I found the food and drink to be solid. In summary, the food is good here but doesn't surpass the service we received.

I like the process but not the wine…read more We swung by to visit this vineyard and the surrounding lavender farm (which I get to review separately). What I liked was being able to taste a flight of one-ounce of everything they have on hand (to taste). The pours were still on the generous side, and my wife and I comfortably shared one flight. It's good we shared because we weren't thrilled with any of the wines offered. On the plus side, they are only minutes away from a Buc-ee's! It's a chance to at least pick up some jerky that might pair well with some of their lavender-leaning wines. If this were a standalone vineyard, the rating might have been a bit lower. However, the restfulness of the surrounding farm made for an OK experience that we have no desire to repeat.
