A soup and sandwich joint with lots of baked goods -- that's Blue Sky…read more It was a cold and drizzly day when I visited, and a bowl of butternut squash soup was the perfect thing. I also got The Yardbird sandwich after the server recommended it. It's basically just chicken salad and lettuce between a ciabatta roll, but it was simple and great. And what the heck: I can't visit a bakery that has multiple sweets without getting one. I also listened to the advice of the server when she recommended the orange scone. She was right again! It was tender and tasted like a Froot Loop. Blue Sky is located on the corner of a busy street. There are lots of tables, but if you can, sit at the bar that looks out onto the street to see the hustling and bustling college town.

Unplanned but fortunate lunch stop on a road trip from NoVA to NOLA. If you're traveling I-81, it's…read morejust 5 or so miles down Rt. 11, which snakes back and forth across '81, so it's not really a "detour". It's in Lexington, home of VMI, and the shop itself is diagonal from a post office built in 1911 with large columns lining its edifice. Sometimes, when college students leave great reviews, that means good food that isn't too expensive. True here, especially for what you get: generous servings on amazing bakery breads. I had the "Sorry Charlie" on a slice of focaccia -- topped with tomato slices and melted cheese and a satisfyingly crunchy, warm crust, with a simple but nicely refreshing black bean and corn salad. Dessert treats are also worth a splurge. The people couldn't be friendlier with customers of all ages enjoying themselves. (And they have a coffee bar. And a "speakeasy"!)

It's not really a restaurant, but more of a grab-and-go type of establishment. I loved my panini but it was pretty small for the price you pay. My wife had the watermelon mint smoothie which I did not like and she kinda liked. But, I especially loved their baked goods, most notably the pumpkin chocolate chip bread, which was stellar! The lady at the counter was quite nice too. Overall, I'd come back here again, just maybe not for a full meal.

Gina's is a cute place, and I would definitely get the calzone again. It was stuffed with two types…read moreof cheese, pepperoni and sauce, all in a soft pizza pocket. My calzone was huge, and half was more than enough for a satisfying dinner. My Caesar salad was a little less than spectacular -- the lettuce and croutons came undressed. The other salads that the people at my table got looked a little "also ran," if you know what I mean. For dessert, I got the lemon cake, which was nice and tart but sweet. From what I understand, Gina's is somewhat new, so I think they're still getting their bearings. They're located in an unassuming strip mall. The service was excellent, but the dining room in the restaurant itself has a sort of fast-food feel to it. Maybe some different decor would help.

If meat isn't your thing there are a ton of seafood options. If that isn't your thing either, they have a veggie plate. I plan to get the beans and greens next time I go, in fact. I was pleasantly surprised. Some of the other reviews gave a decided "meh" to their trips, but my first experience on a cold Sunday afternoon will have me going back soon.

I came here for an event and was hopeful this was going to be a different Ruby Tuesday experience. First, the food portions are on the small side. I got a steak which was tiny as was the baked potato. Unlike the majority of chain restaurants in this country, this chain continues to not give free anything - bread, rolls, chips, etc. The drinks were ok but light on the alcohol.
