    Screamin Mimi
    Amanda E.

    Screamin Mimi sandwich was good. Chicken was fried perfectly and honey siracha sauce was great. Buffalo wings (half size is 5 wings) were standard. Came at 4 on a Saturday, plenty of tables were opening but it filled up fast by 5. Service was quick. Love the vibe and overall aesthetic.

    This is the whole place.

    Fun little place. It's a dive, but in a fun way. Dollar bills stapled up everywhere. Seating circles a bar. Stopped in for lunch on a Thursday. At 11:45 the place was already filling up. We shared two sliders (fried chicken, and burger with Mac and cheese), served with fries. We also had the stick shrimp. Plenty of food. Yummy. Service warm and friendly

    Billy Jacks is a JMu staple. I graduated in 2014 and loved the many times I enjoyed the famous "sticky nuggs" from here! Ambiance is very laid back, bar scene. Drinks are good! I got the peachy keen and a mimosa! I've only ever had the sticky nuggs with the sweet chili sauce so it's all I can speak to on food, but those in themselves earn 5 stars! Served in a Chinese takeout box, you can't beat it! Service is quick and kind!

    There is always such a good energy in Billy Jack's. I went during Christmas time and decorations were so cute. Also their food is so good. I mixed and matched my sliders - one leghorn and one Wagyu beef with fries on the side. Delicious!

    Perfect college town place. Atmosphere was great. Nothing fancy but very nice server and great service. Not busy but steady. Some locals some not. Great beer board (I know distributors force someone to take Elysian so I will not fault them for that). The food was fantastic. Great place to hang out. Will be back

    Knowing this place is part of a chain, I was skeptical when a JMU grad said come here for burgers. Parking can be a chore since that part of Harrisonburg downtown has monopolized paid parking, but it's right next door and just $/hr! The parking app sucks! Walk-in side BJ's and I felt like I was home. Truly your neighborhood hole in the wall bar with $3 PBR draft and full bar with happy hour specials. I was floored by how good the bar food was and our waitress was delightful. Parents, this should be your hang out when visiting your DD and it's technically walkable from Villages. I love BJ's and you can buy the shirt when you're there!well deserved 5 star.

    Started with a couple of nice ice cold pints of a brew called purple haze. (Name only ). It was very good. I like to start a draft of my reviews while on site but got yelled at by my granddaughter for being on phone lol. But I know I had the wings which were great, my granddaughter had a B-Real burger which she devoured and my wife had a grilled chicken Sammy. We were all satisfied and left happy Service was great and the atmosphere too Thank you

    The food comes out fast and is always the perfect temp! It can be very crowded on the weekends after 6 pm, so be prepared to wait most times. Seating is either high-top tables or bar seats. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but sticky nugs and sliders are a must!

    If you are in Harrisonburg, this place is a MUST. It is a staple of this area and so good. They are a small, cozy vibe bar / casual eating spot with both good drinks and good food. If you go, you have to get their iconic Sticky nuggs or some sliders (burgers are so good here) They also have a good selection of beers on draft, a cocktail menu, and a shooters/shots menu. Definitely the spot to go on weekends.

    Stopped by Billy Jacks on the way through on a road trip and it did not disappoint. Their fries are my favorite type as they are thin and super crispy with seasoning. I ordered the sliders (the mac and cheese one and the chicken one) and they were very good also. It was the perfect amount of food for us at the time. Our waitress was helpful and kind and quick to refill drinks. It was also awesome that the place was decked out for Christmas making it a super fun atmosphere.

    Traveling through Virginia on our way to Tennessee and upon reading Yelp reviews for Billy Jack's we decided to give it a try. It was a Friday night over the summer, the bar/restaurant was alive, as was the town. My husband, (13yo) daughter & I were able to get a table and decided to share the sticky nuggs (garlic parm), regular wings (stinky sweet chili) and an order of tots. All three were delicious (and we are picky wing people!!) - let's just say... I would venture to guess that they could fry just about anything & it would be delicious!! Fry flavors and crispiness were perfection! I enjoyed a local IPA with our food and we finished with the specialty donut (Nutella, banana & nuts) as well as the Psycho Girl Scout Donut... highly recommend finishing dinner with one of these sweet treats! Our server, Drew C. was friendly, casual and incredibly attentive! Top notch service! Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

    I got food poisoning from ordering their food. The front staff were so mean to me as well. I will never order from here again.

    I came here during a family graduation. This is at a newer hotel property. What didn't make sense…read moreis the side of the building they decided have it's view overlooking Harrisonburg. Aside from that, the food was quite good. It's more small plates and tapas. Anything with bread and butter here is delicious. Each larger plate I tried was equally unique and tasty. The kitchen knows what they're doing. Farm to table. I would revisit. I recommend having a reservation.

    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.

    We were visiting Harrisonburg for the weekend and after looking on Yelp for a good place to have…read moredinner on a Saturday night, we decided on Capital Ale House. Lots of prom kids and college students filled the place. We were quickly seated in a nice booth and Nate our server helped us with some stout beers. We had a milk stout and a caramel macchiato stout the latter of which was the best. Looking at the menu I have to say it was not your standard ale house fair. It was definitely "elevated" in this regard. We asked to split a 2 soft shell entree with broccolini & seasoned mash, a bowl of crab bisque and a pierogi sampler. We also asked for an extra plate, to which Nate said he would take care of it. When the food arrived it was divided perfectly. Nate had split the bowl of soup into 2 small bowls and he divided the entree and sides onto 2 plates. The soft shell crabs were HUGE, the largest I had ever seen, and crisply fried to perfection. The sides were equally exquisite in their flavor and preparation. The crab bisque was loaded with fresh lump crabmeat and perfectly seasoned. The pirogies were also excellent in flavor and presentation. It was the most satisfying meal I'd had in a while (could be because I was craving soft shells) Needless to say we were very happy with the food in every way and were stuffed as we asked for the check. Nate/Nathaniel really made the experience as he was highly attentive, though caring for many tables, and was quick to take care of our every need. The place was really rocking with customers and everyone there was having a great time. We'll definitely be back and let everyone we know what a top notch establishment Capital Ale House in Harrisonburg is.

    Dinner for us this evening was a real treat. Appetizer was shrimp and spinach dip with crab bisque…read moreas an addition. Dip was good but the bisque was fabulous! My daughter chose shrimp tacos while I went with fish tacos. Both were a nice variation with a hint of cold slaw and a nice late bite spice. Like the atmosphere and location. Add it to your list of possible dinner locations.

    We came for dinner, and were served by Molly. We've been coming here few times a year for the past…read more12 years. The experience usually great, which is why we keep coming back, and the menu is always fun! The service started great and the food came looking fantastic as usual, until I found a long hair in my bowl. Molly was very apologetic once we showed her the hair and she took it inside to show the kitchen. I told her I don't want another bowl , as I didn't want the food to go to waste and didn't have time to wait for a new one. Here is were the service turned south; - Molly didn't come back to check on us or fill the water cups - We didn't get a discount of any kind in the check, as you would normally expect! - I expected the chef or the manager on duty to come out and apologize, but that didn't happen. - Finally, Molly brought our check when we finished eating and didn't ask if we are interested in desserts, as typically the case! Just very odd reaction to an issue Like this, and shows lack of professionalism and training on behalf of the management on how to deal with bad customer experience like a hair in the food. By the way, I'm bold, so the long hair is from the kitchen!
