    I came here for brunch and got the meat lover omelette ($15) it came out in about 20 minutes. I was surprised by the size of the omelette, it was gigantic probably about 4ish eggs used. There was also a lot of meat as well, which surprisingly was a bit overwhelming. The potatoes were crispy however I'm not sure if they were supposed to be seasoned or not. Adding salt and pepper afterwards and the potatoes were quite solid. Staff were very nice and checked up on us. Overall some fantastic value for the amount of food you get for the price and the taste is quite solid. I would definitely come back again! Food(50%): 7.0 Staff/service(25%): 8.5 Value(25%): 9.5 Overall: 8.0/10

    Avocado Toast
    Ricardo F.

    Was really excited due to the rating but ended up somehow disappointed. We went for a later breakfast and it was almost empty. The place looks really nice and service was ok. We ordered a breakfast combo (eggs, bacon, toast, etc), an avocado toast (these 2 were great), eggs Benedict (that said it would come with a biscuit and it didn't) and French toast (that also didn't come with any kind of sugar or syrup or anything - even though we requested it - it was just bland and just a piece of bread basically). Our mochas were good but tasted more like chocolate milk than coffee really. Overall we had half of it good and right while the other half was "messy". Also not cheap at all, it cost us almost like a lunch out. It was ok but won't come back

    The delicious "adult latte" Andy crafted for me. Think a warm espresso martini. Soooo yummy! Perfect for a rainy day!

    So good, we went back the following day! We wanted to share pics this time. Yet again, the food, service, overall hospitality, and music were excellent! I wanted an espresso martini but also wanted something warm on this rainy day. Andy created a delicious "adult latte" that was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks again, Carrie and Andy! We love this place! See you next summer, if not sooner!

    We dropped our grandson off at work and decided to look for a place to sit , chat and a bite to eat. I have a list of restaurants that I would love to visit. We came across Cafe Atlantic and decided to give it a try. The decor is very relaxing and beautiful , the service was great and the lady taking our order was very nice and communicated very well with us throughout our visit. Over all I must say it was 10/10. The food was excellent and we will definitely be back

    There are very rare times when you go to a place for a reason then leave with an entirely surprising and lasting experience. Cafe Atlantic is a true rare gem. I was door dashing, the app wasn't cooperating and there weren't lots of offers. I had always wanted to try Cafe Atlantic and I happened to be in the area with only 30 minutes until closing time. There is a cozy, simple yet modern vibe. The bar was inviting so I picked a seat. There were pastries in cloches on the bar table. Andy (whom I later found out is the owner) was welcoming and warm and personable. He didn't make me feel rushed even when he calmly explained the breakfast buffet closes at 1pm but I can most certainly order from the menu. I ordered the avocado toast with choice of how I wanted my egg cooked - sunny side up. The avocado toast came out seemingly fresh, the egg perfectly cooked to my liking. I unfortunately got a door dashing order so only had time to eat the egg and was given a box for my toasts, which I thoroughly enjoyed on the road, with everything but the bagel seasoning providing the toasts with just the right amount of saltiness and texture. The unexpected part came when Andy was kind to offer iced water (with twist of lemon) for me to take with me while I door dashed. Not only did this brain child of a restaurant manifest in its ambiance and food, but its spirit was in the care that Andy takes to make sure his customers were taken care of - now that's more than just an establishment, it was a sense of community beyond what is served! Cafe Atlantic is definitely infinitely a place I recommend for everyone to try. What you won't see are the far more stars than the 5 stars I can rate with this review. Thanks Andy, for the conversation, the water to go and the wonderful feeling beyond the delightful avocado toasts!

    Best latte in Virginia beach!!! Espresso is so delicious that we went back every morning of our 10 day work trip. Staff is friendly and accommodating to requests. Food is great too!

    We made a special trip to Rustic Spoon for my husband's birthday because their website listed…read morescotch eggs, which was something he'd been craving forever and that we hadn't been able to find anywhere around town. It happened to be Restaurant Week, which made us a little nervous, but it ended up being totally fine. The dining room never felt overly crowded, the noise level was comfortable, and having the Restaurant Week prix fixe, drink specials, and regular menu all available gave us plenty of options without feeling overwhelming. One small note: the plastic logo cups served with the water decanter felt a little out of place. They were a bit sharp on the lips and didn't quite match the rest of the dining experience. Minor detail, but noticeable. The drinks, however, were excellent. On our server's recommendation, my husband ordered the Gingerbread Old Fashioned and I had the Salted Caramel Martini. Both were seasonal specials and both were fantastic. When we asked about the scotch eggs, our server explained they're normally a brunch-only item. We were a little disappointed (and may have made a few pouty faces while explaining we'd come specifically for them for his birthday), but we quickly let it go, it obviously wasn't her fault. What we didn't realize was that she went back and told the kitchen manager that it was his birthday and that we'd made the trip just for those scotch eggs. Since the kitchen wasn't slammed, they decided to make them anyway and surprised us with an order. We were honestly floored. My husband was thrilled. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. And the scotch eggs were exactly what he'd been hoping for! They were crispy on the outside with a rich, savory center. For entrées, his Nashville Hot Chicken was juicy with the perfect amount of heat without being overwhelming. My Haystack Burger was stacked and delicious, though the BBQ sauce was strong enough to overshadow the pickled green tomato a bit. The fries were fantastic - crispy, battered, and perfect from first bite to last. Our server checked in at all the right times and kept drinks refilled without us needing to ask. The fact that she went out of her way to do something special during one of the busiest weeks on a restaurant's calendar says a lot about both her and the restaurant. Rustic Spoon is the kind of place that works just as well for a casual date night as it does for a birthday dinner or a night out with friends.

Although we sat outside (because we were dining with a dog), we never had to wait too long for the waitress to check on us. Every 5-10 minutes, she dropped by to make sure things were going well and to refill our coffee. Since The Egg Bistro has a HUGE breakfast menu, I'm sure everyone should be able to find something that they will/might enjoy. For my dining pleasure, I tried something new and went with the Bennie & the Grits. This dish piqued my interest because I never heard of grits cakes in the four decades of living on this planet. For about 20 bucks, the dish included three fried grit cakes with ground sausage, grilled shrimp, more sausage, two poached eggs and a side. Although the serving size was HUGE, I was not a bit fan of the dish. Note, I didn't think the dish was prepared badly, I just didn't get the concept of the fried grits (this from a grits lover); however, everything else with the dish was pretty good. If you are a Bloody Mary lover, you might some interesting varieties of Bloody Marys here. Additionally, I really appreciated that The Egg Bistro ranks the Bloody Marys based on spice level. Overall, I definitely would not mind visiting this location during a future trip to Va Beach. The only (very) minor issue that I had was that the outdoor seating is right next to the parking lot so you might experience some exhaust fumes/smoke while eating if you chose to dine outside. Again, this would not have been a (very) minor issue if we were not dining with a dog.

The food arrived pretty quickly. I ordered the veggie lovers omelette without the mushrooms and w/ biscuits and potatoes. Everything tasted fresh and not too greasy. I thought the addition of avocados without the upcharge was nice. Too bad they didn't have marmalade for jelly choices but if that's the only complaint I have, I'd say it's pretty good. I wouldn't mind returning again in the future thanks to the nice service and decent food with good portions and pricing.

At the end of the cup, I was debating ordering another because it was that good! I also order the breakfast bowl, but wish I hadn't. I knocked off one star due to the poor food experience. I waited maybe 15 mins or so for my food to be ready (no biggy as I wasn't in a rush). But when I bit into my food, it was cold. The eggs were inedible. The bacon was chilled and I guess served in syrup. The avocado was perfectly ripe. Overall, I wouldn't recommend the breakfast bowl, especially not this for $15+ dollars. If I visit again, I'll stick with the lattes and skip the food!

Brilliant idea. The hostess took our name and phone number and we received a txt when our table was ready. The hostess was very friendly and attentive. The ambiance was amazing. Since it is mainly a seafood restaurant the aesthetic was ocean or bay themed. They had great decorations of coral reef and other things found in the ocean around the restaurant. They had a great seating area for patrons who were waiting for a table. The service was impeccable. Our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Since it was our first time at this restaurant we were unsure about what we should order. She gave great suggestions. We ordered the fried oysters, oyster burger, and shrimp with vegetables and eggs. We also ordered a pineapple crush and the localizer. The food was very flavorful and fresh. The oyster burger was very unique it had a fried oyster on top of the patty which was great. It was cooked to perfection and very juicy. The fried oysters were great as well. They came with Pita bread and spinach dip to make an oyster sandwich. Amazing!!! The drinks were on point as well. They weren't too strong but they weren't weak either. I recommend trying out this restaurant if you are in the area. It is totally worth the wait.

I also won gift certificates for Selden Market, and they were burning a hole in my mind. So early on Sunday morning, my partner and I trek from VA Beach to Downtown Norfolk. After a few phone calls to their owner, I could use my gift certificate. We ordered the classic chicken and waffle for my partner (without Captain Crunch or powdered sugar), and since I was in the mood for sweet and savory - I ordered the Grandma waffle. The Grandma waffle is a full-size waffle featuring scrambled eggs, breaded chicken, strawberries, blueberries, and powdered sugar. To drink, my partner grabbed a coffee, and since I firmly believed in brunch, I grabbed a mimosa. Our drinks were the second best part of our dining experience (the first was the customer service). The waffles were lackluster. The chicken and waffle only feature the equivalent of one chicken tender split into four pieces. I wished I had photo evidence, but my partner said, 'Nope, don't photograph this. ' My waffle was better. The strawberries, blueberries, and powdered sugar helped compensate for the lack of sweetness in the waffle. My waffle was also filler since I had more toppings, but another chicken tender would be friendly.
