Went here Friday night after 9:30 pm. Decently full inside, all seats and tables were taken when we…read morearrived. There's now a security table/desk where the DJ booth used to be; definitely wasted space where more tables and chairs could've been added instead. Had to stand for about 10 mins before some people finally left then we had to like "hurry" to get the seats before anyone else got them. We needed an extra chair at our table and went up to the security to ask if he knew where anymore could be or if we could borrow the one that was behind his table since he seemed to only be standing all night, but he responded kind of harsh with a stern "NO"....def unnecessary. Even though he was rude, the bartenders were the opposite, making funny light conversation and friendly while we ordered and waited for our drinks. The atmosphere was a nice, chill, and intimate vibe, with red/orange lighting. To drink: I tried the Saturn (8/10) it was pretty good, I liked the flavor, but there really didn't seem to be much alcohol in it fr. To eat: we ordered a Margherita Pizza and added Pepperoni (10/10) it was fresh, flavorful, and all around really good. There were hints of spice in the sauce that really added to the flavors. Their pizza seems to be a popular menu item as I seen pizza boxes on almost every table throughout the night. Def will be back again, but next time, we're going to get there early, so we can have a table for the night. Looked like once people secured themselves a table in here, they held it all night long and never moved / left till closing. My overall rate of experience : 7.5/10

Night out at Only You Lounge in Norfolk--drinks, bites, and live vibes…read more We dive into the lo-fi lounge vibe with Brazilian tunes and live DJs, then sample the rotating frozen cocktail and Saturn. The burrata tartina, oysters Rockefeller, and Margherita pizza all deliver solid flavors with thoughtful pairings. Ambiance is a 10. They really captured the Lofi Chillax vibe. It's really gorgeous inside and outside. The ambiance is absolutely spectacular--stylish, vibrant, and energetic, making it the perfect setting for a night out. Service is a 10, the waiters were so nice and helpful. Dinner at Only You was an incredible experience from start to finish. Every dish we tried was delicious, beautifully presented, and full of bold, memorable flavors, and the cocktails were equally impressive, well-balanced and expertly crafted. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great night out with amazing flavors and an unforgettable setting. Only You delivers a dining experience that feels elevated yet fun, and it's definitely a spot I'd return to for the food, drinks, and vibe alone. Thank you Only You! #foodie #norfolk #nightout #foodiegram #eatlocal

Thicker white girl, she had French braids the night we were in. She rudely told us that we couldn't pay with a card for our drinks after telling us we couldn't get ANY mixed drinks while she was vaping at the bar. When we asked where the atm was, she told us we could leave when we were done with our drinks. For newbies in the spot, I thought it was crazy how she was speaking to us. It definitely made me not want to come back. Those dancers have no chance with a bartender lacking in all the aspects.

I have visited the Bamboo Room a little over a year ago and most recently maybe eight months ago,…read morebut the lounge, I visited a few weeks ago to see a favorite "Trina" in concert. Well it was more of an 'appearance' but she did perform for at least 20 minutes. I was pleased, but I did hear mixed chatter throughout the night. We arrived about 9 pm, but she didn't take the stage until 1:15 am or even later. We only paid $25 each for the tickets, but it was cool for what it was. The DJ was on point and the crowd was cool. A bit rowdy, but the majority of the crowd was 20 something. My almost 40 something self probably didn't have no business being here, but Trina brought the people out - ranging from 21 to 40+. The drinks were on point, pricey after a certain time. But you'll want to get there for happy hour and pay happy hour prices. Nevertheless, the vibe was cool and I recommend you give this place a try. If you are looking for a nightlife vibe. I spoke with some of the party goers and even the attendant in the restroom advised the busiest and perhaps 'best' night are Friday nights. I am not sure what she defines as 'best', but I assume it's packed on those nights. Nevertheless, I have witnessed different parties of all walks of life take place at this venue. Perhaps, check out the spots IG or Facebook page for specifics. As a result, it may not always be 'rowdy', but go at your own risk, I just suggest you inquire first to see if the party goers are to your liking... RnB, Hip Hop, Reggae etc. If you prefer a chill crowd, I suggest you arrive before 7 pm to check out Happy Hour and order a meal or appetizer. The spot is located in a shopping center and there is plenty of parking. Located between Ollies and the Bingo Hall. You will enter through the Bamboo Room and the lounge is located in the back. The area inside is a good size and the sound system was straight too. Have fun and enjoy life :)

Origami Friday night came out for a birthday…read more Arrived at 8:30 pm Cover $20 (ladies) not sure what they were charging for the men. You pay with cash, Cashapp or Apple Pay and they also have an ATM on site. Security on site ID check at the door 21 and up The parking lot is huge We were in the lounge part of the venue it is quite small. The walls are lined with couches and plenty tables which can be reserved. The inside decor is very nice. There was a DJ and he played a lot of R&B and old school hits and some new songs here and there. There is one bar area and it was quite a hassle to get a drink. You can order food from the kitchen or a waitress. They have a menu selection: Wings variety of flavors Shrimp Fish Egg rolls: jerk chicken, Philly chicken and Philly steak Bar prices are super high $20 for top shelf shot Hookah is available as well Food Jerk chicken egg rolls - 2/5 no seasoning Fried fish - 3/5 little over cooked no sauces provided Overall review nice establishment they are available for parties and also do a brunch on Sunday which is buffet style and you can order specialty items from the menu. I would definitely recommend this place and come back for more good times.

We actually felt embarrassed for our waiter having to serve this food & drink…read more We should have excused ourselves & cancelled the order when we saw the light brown water that was supposed to be coffee. It had exactly 0 coffee flavor and was the weakest coffee ever made. Our second warning was the Disgusting bloody marys -- Not ever in the history of bloody marys have we ever tasted anything like it. Red food coloring in water would have been better. It had a very weird flavor. Not a drop of tomato juice or any normal spice that you would expect ; it was sweet & flavorless & VERY diluted if it was made with any type of mix. The breakfast was only so-so. We came for the cornedbeef hash because of yelp reviews that are obviously extremely outdated and the photos are NOT current. The food is certainly not homemade & the cornedbeef was obviously from a can. Avoid at all costs.

The Aqua Lounge is located inside of the Crowne Plaza Hotel, directly across from the Tines…read moreRestaurant inside the hotel. After we entered the hotel, it struck me as unusual that there was no signage to indicate where the Tines Restaurant and the Aqua Lounge were located inside the hotel. My husband and I wound our way around the corridor, until we came to the lobby near where the restaurant and lounge are both located. The restaurant was closed (now apparently open only on weekends), so we went to the lounge. Based upon the service we received in the Aqua Lounge, I would give the establishment 5 stars, because Sean was very professional and welcoming, greeting us immediately upon entry. He even adjusted the thermostat for me, because he could tell I was freezing from the air conditioning! Sean advised us of the happy hour drink specials, which included the house liquors and wines. He was very cordial and professional, and I fully expect he would successfully find suitable employment in an establishment which will be more deserving of his qualifications, so that he will have more customers from whom he can earn tips. Inside the lounge, there are a few tables in addition to seating at the bar, and most of the tables are simply wooden. However, there were four tables which were covered with white table cloths and set with glasses and cloth napkins. We chose to sit at one of the white cloth-covered tables. To my dismay, I noted that none of the cloth-covered tables had clean table cloths, as all were clearly soiled from previous patrons (i.e. crumbs, greasy spots, various food / drink stains). The napkins and accompanying utensils inside them were clean, so that was a definite plus. Our alcoholic libations were made according to order. We each ordered food, which Sean promptly went to fetch from the kitchen upon its preparation. My husband had a Cuban sandwich which was fresh and tasty. I ordered the spinach & artichoke dip served with sliced brioche. It was hot and flavorful, of which I was appreciative. The lounge itself seems to be a rather neglected aspect of the IHG company, along with the hotel and restaurant. The lounge looks almost as though it's not actually open, the only clue to indicate that it was open for business was that Sean was at the bar and the televisions were on. It makes me sad to see the potential for an establishment such as this being left to stand empty, things like advertising drink specials could help draw in some business and vitality. The hotel seems like it must depend solely upon conference bookings rather than hotel guests who are staying overnight. There was very little activity in the hotel lobby, and the front desk attendant was seldom required to be at their post to assist guests. I think that IHG would be well-served to model this facility after one of their Hotel Indigo properties, which has more of a boutique hotel feeling.
