    Inside
    Hailey L.

    Inside is really nice, the wine was okay! I wasn't super impressed by the sangria flight but I think it was just because the sangria flight is set with their most popular flavors, but they aren't ones I would've picked. Everyone at my table really liked them though. I got a glass of the coconut sangria and that was 10/10.

    Sooo, Waters Edge Winery & Bistro is such a beautiful spot with plenty of tasting options. This was the start of a girls' day for us, so we didn't eat much just shared an appetizer. We mainly came for the wine, and trust we had wine! The staff was super friendly, and the atmosphere was relaxed and chill. I'd definitely come back to try more of the wine... and maybe some more food next time.

    Amazing date night location! Locally veteran owned business that impressed me from the moment we stepped in the door. We enjoyed a pick your own wine flight and two of their entrees. The staff is very knowledgeable and explains how the wine is made at the winery. Amazing wine from all over the country and the food was delicious too. This is the perfect location if you want to try something different in the Norfolk area!

    We had the best Mother's Day lunch here! This place is beautiful - just the right combination of tasteful nautical and clean modern decor! The service was so friendly and prompt! And their food and wine were amazing! Everything was fresh and delicious! I also loved the live music, plenty of parking and you can make reservations online.

    Came for dinner with friends to celebrate wine month. I had a reservation but it wasn't packed. I was told we could sit wherever. Choose a large booth near the live music, a gentleman playing a keyboard. The menus had a lot of tasty options. I got the salmon and substitute the couscous with orzo and got a side of brussel sprouts. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the sauce was good. The orzo was extremely bland. The brussel sprouts were great!! My friends and I decided to do the wine flights. I got the sangria flight and my friends tried variety between sangria, red and white wine. The sangrias were ok. The biggest complaint was th fact the sangria flight is listed at $21, but if you don't do the preselected options it's an additional charge of $6. It's definitely more cost effective and beneficial to share a bottle of wine with friends instead of paying $27 for a flight. I would come back for lunch maybe.

    I've been back a few times since my initial review when they first opened. For this review covering the past year I would give them 3 1/2 stars. A few things from my visits: Lunch visit: I sat out on the patio with a group of 6. Our waitress was not good. Maybe she was new and inexperienced. Food took a while, waitress could not answer questions, and wine was disappointing to especially one in our group. Her Chardonnay was not to her liking (too sweet) so she did not drink it. No replacement was offered and her full glass just remained at the table. Food was "meh" this day for all of us. At one point the waitress told us she could see some of our food was ready in the kitchen and wanted to know if she should bring out what was ready or leave it back there. The owner came by the table to check on us at the end of our meal. He obviously understood that things were not going great for our table but he didn't ask what went wrong or what could be better. Missed opportunity for him. Dinner: most recently we went as a table of 4 for dinner. Everyone was pretty happy with their meals. I had the peach glazed salmon which was plentiful. Another guest at our table was happy that the flatbreads were gluten free. Unfortunately, after a guest placed their order the waiter returned 5 minutes later to say they ran out of that item. When we were choosing our wine for the meal, our waiter was not very helpful or knowledgeable. We wanted to get a bottle to share and he was very hesitant to ask the bartender for a taste before we purchased an entire bottle. They hesitantly brought a splash but it seemed like it was an annoyance. I would probably recommend doing a flight tasting unless you really know you would like the wine to get a bottle. Their wine seems much lighter and not as full bodied in comparison to wine that we normally drink (red wine). The ambiance inside was nice and relaxing. Our table was comfortable and clean.

    I love this place. 4/5 because I feel like they need to broaden their menu out and offer some more items, but overall I will continue to go here. Live music on Friday's, that was a nice surprise! The gal was an extremely good singer! The ambiance is chill, relaxed, fancy vibes. But also very welcoming. I had the Greek flatbread. It was okay. I think maybe it needed some ingredients I can't quite pin point. Just kinda tasted like tomato sauce. Waited a while for the server to come by and get me a second drink. It wasn't that busy so I'm not sure why I took that long. But over all it's a good place. I've tried a few other things on other visits and they were very good, like the fries, the Brussels sprouts, and the steak frites.

    Brussels Sprouts
    Victoria S.

    I'm in LOVE! Waters Edge is just what Norfolk needed! I'm from out of town, but visit the Hampton Roads often. They've only been open a short time, but the owner welcomed us and gave us a lovely overview of the restaurant and the wine club. Do yourself a favor and sign up on Mondays for a discount! They've got a private room for special events, and a beautiful dining space with a balance of casual and intimacy. Great for friends or a date! Now to the food: my goodness it was divine! I ate too much food and didn't even snag pics! The Brussels sprouts weren't over seasoned, yet flavorful. The salmon was the star of the show! And the risotto was sensational! The wines were amazing! The Bordeaux is the star! My family enjoyed the red wine flight (you can customize or get the wines they recommend). Overall, Waters Edge is a 10/10! I cannot wait to return!

    Met a few friends this was a half way meeting point. They have a wonderful menu and we each ordered a different flight and so enjoyed them very much Ordered: Sparkling Wine Flight Virginia Hot Crab Dip Italian Burrata Parmesan Truffle Fries Sangria Flight Wine Flight Charcuterie Board That gave us a large sampling of the menu and we shared almost everything That Burrata Salad was the best I've ever had. Our server Meagan was very attentive and did a great job. There's also an outside seating area

    Outdoor patio

    Gorgeous space! Went there for an office Christmas party, and I was very pleasantly surprised by the vibe and decor. Open concept, modern yet inviting. Beautiful and spacious outdoor heated patio! They have a full menu, but our private party had a limited menu. Portions were very small in my opinion, but everyone enjoyed the chicken, salmon, and curry entrees. I also do not drink wine, but the party of about 50 people enjoyed many varieties. Water's Edge even made up custom wine bottles four out company's owners as a group gist, complete with the logo. Really nice touch! Our wait staff for the private party could not have been more helpful and lovely. Highly recommend checking out this new spot in Norfolk!

    This place is worth all the hype that it has been getting. First of all, love a place that has a family-friendly atmosphere. I was there with my large family and another large family came in... we were all just vibing. Our waitress, Amber made us feel like we were at home. Second, I love that we went on Saturday at 11:30 AM and we beat the Saturday lunch rush. Third, absolutely love their wines and will be back for more!!! Their wines have unique flavors. Most are light, pack a great fruity flavor, and are strrrroonnng! I highly recommend their wine flight and mimosa flight to try all of what they have to offer seasonally. That blackberry mimosa... I hope that stays in season forever. lol. I did love the food that we had. I had the chimichurri steak frites. It was light on the flavor but hearty. I didn't feel like anything was over or under seasoned. It truly was light. I love the way they make their fries which is important for someone like me who looks for the perfect crunch each time she eats fries. My brother had the Mediterranean salad with no protein and he really enjoyed it. It was delicious. The crab cakes seem small but MY GOD they are pretty dense and packed with crab meat. So so good. I would have preferred less onion in it but otherwise, a must try. The tortellini which I failed to take a photo of was also reeeaalllyyy good!!!!!!!! I definitely recommend ordering that if you're a pasta lover. The charcuterie board was pretty. I loved the mixed berry jam. It paired well with their house bread. I was sad that all the meats were pork since I don't eat pork. So I hope that they consider adding a beef option in the future. Everyone enjoyed the meats that were on the board. They felt that the cheeses were perfect pairings for what was there! This place is definitely going to be a "go-to" for my family when we dine out. Quality and service are both absolutely there!!!! I hope you can get yourself in here soon.

    Super friendly staff and plenty of parking. Its quiet and a great restaurant to catch up with friends or a date night. I love that they had an Almond Sparkling and it was delicious. I also enjoyed most of the wine in the red wine flight. Our server Braden was friendly and attentive. My husband and I got the Fried Crab cakes. The slaw and the lemon vinaigrette were a great pairing and really good. We split the Edge Burger and the Chimichurri Steak and Frites. The burger was good and loved the chimichurri. While the steak was a little more medium well than medium, it was still good. Fries were delicious. Overall would recommend!

    White Cranberry Sangria
    Zarielle A.

    This was my first time visiting Waters Edge Winery, I loved the decor and ambiance there. I met there with my soror during happy hour and there were only a few other people inside dining, so it was nicely quiet. Sangrias were $5 by the glass and the flatbreads were 1/2 off during happy hour. I started with the White Cranberry Sangria (10/10), Virginian Crab Dip (7/10) I enjoyed the taste, but wasn't overly satisfied as I hoped, BBQ flat bread (8/10) yummy, but needed more toppings, and the Black Raspberry Sangria (10/10). Overall, I enjoyed everything I ordered, but I do wish there were more options to choose from under the happy hour specials though. I am definitely going back as I really enjoyed my first time at the winery. My overall rate of experience : 8.5/10

    We had the Norfolk Brussels (no feta), which were flash-fried Brussels sprouts with crispy bacon--absolutely delicious!

The service was great. The wait staff are attentive, but laid back also. Our waiter offered suggestions and added information that was useful. The cocktails were very good. I tried "Squad goals" a Mezcal cocktail, which was very good, and an Old fashioned, which was also very good. Not too sweet, which often happens at most restaurants. I ordered the Rockfish with Bomba rice and a Chorizo broth. The broth was amazing! The dish wouldn't be close to the same without it. I do wish there was more, the portion size was too small IMO. I wasn't exactly full after my meal and ended up stealing some of my wife's potatoes . My wife ordered the Roasted Duck Breast dish, which was really good. Yes, the potatoes were really good too. Overall, it's a very nice place to have a great meal. My only complaint was the portion size. I believe they rotate the menu regularly, so the dishes discussed may or may not be there when you go, and you should go! Recommended.
