    Cheese Pizza Slice
    Kelsey M.

    I've gone here a few times with my boyfriend and his friends, and each time has been enjoyable! I've only gone on Mondays for their $1 slices, which is such a great deal, and the slices are bigger than I expected. They have 7-foot pool tables upstairs that take quarters, which is perfect if you're in the mood to play. The service has never been slow.

    I love Chicho's pizza with the spicy sauce - PERIOD!!! I tell you, when I want pizza and I am nearby, this is my go to spot. The spicy sauce with pepperoni and jalapenos toppings is my go to for sure! Yes, I love spicy! The salads here are great as well! I love the wings fried hard as well. The atmosphere is lively too! Every now and then they will feature a DJ or live music. This place is located on the busy Granby Street. When you walk in this place appears to be small inside, but it's actually pretty large compared to other restaurants located in the area. I have dined here a handful of times and each time has been a joy! I love the cocktails here too!! Parking - street parking is available and free after 6pm and Free on Sundays. But if none is available - garages are located within walking distance. Check them out! I believe on Sundays they offer a cheese pizza deal worth getting - with spicy sauce :) Have fun and enjoy life :)

    I usually never leave my workplace for lunch but a couple of my coworkers and I decided to venture in Downtown Norfolk and it seems like a lot of places are closed on Tuesday, at least where we were intending to go was. Chichos was open and we decided to eat here for lunch. The prices for their food are pretty inexpensive and the serving sizes are decent/big. I ordered the Cheese Pizza which was $6 for a 10inch personal pizza and I picked spicy marinara for my sauce. For $6 it was a decent size personal pizza. Before you take a look at the picture, I forgot to snap a picture before I took a bite, least to say I was hungry. The pizza tasted like a normal regular pizza, I didn't get any of the spice until I hit the 4th slice where it all seemed to be concentrated at one focal point of the pizza. The spice would have been a lot better if it was distributed throughout the sauce. They do have a bar area and there was one other person in the establishment besides us but he was doing some day drinking. Our order was taken fairly quickly and placed but it seemed to take a while for the order to come out. It was a pretty basic experience at a restaurant, nothing extravagant. However, I was surprised when I looked at the check, that there was an automatic tip applied to the order. There were a total of 3 people in the party and we all paid separately, I understand putting a mandatory gratuity tip on large groups, but I was fairly shocked to see an automatic tip on my receipt. I was not going to question the tip because $1 and some change tip was not going to break my bank, but in the long run it saved me money because I was going to tip more than the tip automatically applied.

Between the five of us, we probably ordered about half the menu and every single plate they brought out was delicious. On more than one occasion in the head, chef came out to the table to drop a plate or introduce a dish for us. Which is so incredibly rare in this area.

Kasa was my server and she was helpful in choosing some amazing dishes. The restaurant is small plates or tapas which is nice to be able to sample more of the amazing menu. I ordered the pearadox cocktail which was tasty. My first dish was the squash bisque (didn't get a picture because it smelled too good and I finished it fast). It was an incredible mash up of squash, peanut and coconut crème. There were some red peppers afloat and a little kick to it as well. My second dish was a signature of Chef Ty, the roasted roots and squash. Delicious root vegetables and squash, with some crème and dukkah. I could have eaten two or three plates. My final dish was the braised beef and fry bread. Imagine a cloud of puff pastry filled with the most delicious and tender beef you ever have eaten. I really wanted to try some dessert but just couldn't bring myself to do so. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area or VA Beach too, not too far away. I will hopefully return my next time through. Compliments to Chef Ty and the establishment owners for an excellent experience from beginning to end.

It is on the 5th Floor of the Hilton Norfolk Main, and it is a massive venue with lots of indoor and outdoor space, with a beautiful fire pit in the outdoor area for chilly nights. I first went for lunch on 04/27/2026, and it was open seating. Our service was pleasant, quick and very courteous. I had the buffalo chicken spring rolls, which were so yummy and I also had some of the Philly steak grain fries. I also attended a private company event/dinner on that same evening. For that, the food was catered and was equally delicious -- but had some things you will not find on the regular menu. Again, an overall great visit x2, and I would definitely return again.

The bar is located right in the center of it all and there are so many beers on tap plus fun cocktails! I visit the area on business and whenever I do, I always make a stop at Grain due to its convenient location in our usual Hilton, plus we really do have such fun here! The service is friendly and relaxed. I never feel rushed despite how busy they get. In terms of food, I have to admit it's pretty average. I recommend it for drinks and appetizers or a late bite. Every dinner I've had has been a bit lackluster. Not bad, but not great or memorable either. I tried the blackened chicken tacos this week which were a bit dry and I found the cucumber salad a strange side dish for tacos. Also had a smash burger which was overcooked. That said, the bar bites and apps were good! Mozzarella sticks, wings, fries, and dips are satisfying. All in all, I call it a 3.5/5. It's a fun spot that I continue to enjoy with my colleagues!

Fries are not included, so each meal ended up costing about $16 for a burger and fries without a drink. We ordered the regular cheeseburger, the Cowboy with bacon, BBQ sauce, and American cheese, the Cobra Kai with cream cheese, pickled jalapeños, and jalapeño jelly, and the Classic Jack with caramelized onions, JB sauce, and dill pickles. Everything tasted solid, but nothing really stood out compared to other burgers I have had. I was also confused by the "dill pickles" topping since every burger already came with a pickle on the side. One downside was the limited menu. There were no chicken tenders or ranch options for others in our group who wanted something simpler. The restaurant itself is very small and does not seem ideal for larger groups. We had five people and needed an extra stool added to our table to fit everyone. Another group of seven ended up leaving because they could not sit together. That said, I would still come back if I were in the area since I did enjoy the meal for what it was . A special shoutout to the waitress with the bridge piercing. She was friendly, accommodating, and quick with service, which really stood out.

Service is so friendly and you can tell it is a TEAM! I sat at the bar so got to watch the open kitchen in action. Their system is down pat and you can tell everyone enjoys working with each other. Each dish I watched from prep to service was handled with meticulous care. PRIDE IN WORK AT ITS FINEST! Everyone works to serve you as a team as well, no worry about "bothering" another member of the staff for something, everyone wants you to enjoy your meal. I can tell there are a lot of local regulars as the staff was engaged on a level you only see when your clientele is consistent and have a vested interest in the success of the business. I've been to 16 countries and travelled all over the states, this is truly one of the most friendly establishments I've had the pleasure of being hosted at. On to the food! I see a few people complain about the small menu, that is the SMARTEST thing a business can do. Focus on what you're good at and demolish the competition. High Street Pizza and Pour delivers on this. My eyes were bigger than my stomach so I ordered the meatballs, the special for their pizza pie of the night (a pork belly, red onion, jalapeño, bbq drizzle dream boat of a pie), a tiramisu and two cocktails. The food in pictures looked smaller than in person... omg I ordered for about 4-5 people! But everyone was soooo good. Meatballs were tender with a fantastic red sauce. Pizza had a crispy buttery crust and the pork belly was rendered perfectly. Tiramisu was fantastic (not sure if that's an in house make or pre done, but it was on point), and the cocktails were perfectly poured with just the right amount of liquor. I left with probably two meals worth of takeout the portions were so large and I can't wait until I'm hungry again. I'm new to the neighborhood and as everyone knows, you need to find your fav local spot to frequent. I'm proud to report, High Street Pizza and Pour House has just taken that spot!

We had shared a couple of the small plates and enjoyed them both. We enjoyed the place so much that we decided to come back with a group of 14 for All Lovers Eve. Second time: Made the reservation with ease. If you've ever made a group reservation you know how complicated some places make it. This was a large group and they were short handed. This lead to a slower service which actually worked out well for our group. We didn't mind the gaps. They put us in their back room (hint - GREAT for groups) there was a little confusion with the order to include an extra dish we didn't order. We still ate it and paid for it though.

Multiple cocktails that were all wonderful. My only real negative was that there was a $50 "loyalty club " charge that was never mentioned and I didn't even notice on the $1200.00 bill.
