The exterior of the venue is undeniably striking, accented by marvelous murals and artistic decor that set an elevated, sophisticated tone before you even step through the doors. Inside, the establishment is impeccably pristine, wonderfully vibrant, and beautifully maintained. Their bar program is remarkable, boasting a serious wine collection and a selection of top-shelf spirits. For my beverage, I opted for the Smoke and Mirrors cocktail, which was expertly crafted, perfectly balanced, and thoroughly impressive. For my main dish, I selected the Fried Oysters a first for me at this particular establishment and though they were outside of the standard Happy Hour menu, they were an absolute culinary triumph! Crisp, extraordinarily fresh, and seasoned to perfection. The highlight of the evening, however, was the impeccable service. My server, Sarah, was an absolute delight gracious, attentive, and without a doubt the finest at the establishment. From the stunning aesthetics and pristine atmosphere to the divine cuisine and Sarah's top-tier hospitality, Atlantic receives absolute full marks from me. A flawless evening I shall most certainly be returning!

We did return! And The Atlantic is still among our favorite spots on the beach!…read moreWe hit the Happy Hour and the place was packed. We had a 45 minute wait but that was no big deal. Our group ordered some IPA's - Orange Starfish to be exact, and a couple of well drinks. We had the famous Smash Burgers and a a tuna slider. For an appetizer we had ceviche. We love ceviche but this version had really really soft, almost mushy scallops! No one was a fan of mushy scallops so we ate around them! We're not sure if this is how their scallops always are served, of if we just got a mushy order. Overall the food and service was great and we will be back!

While seeking an exceptional dining destination along the beach this evening, I happened upon…read moreWaterman's Surfside Grille and it proved to be a thoroughly marvelous discovery! The pristine beach views alone are worth the visit, providing a serene and picturesque backdrop. The aesthetic of the establishment is exquisitely curated. The color palette and decor choices are vibrant yet tasteful, immediately setting an elevated coastal atmosphere. The venue features an inviting bar area alongside comfortable, well-appointed private seating that allows for a truly relaxing evening. I was seated in a delightful spot and taken care of by Nikki, who provided stellar hospitality. She was extraordinarily gracious, patient, and warm, taking the time to thoroughly guide me through their menu offerings. To begin, I ordered their Monday special, the Orange Crush, which was delightfully refreshing, beautifully mixed, and utterly divine. For my main course, I selected the Rainbow Trout. The dish arrived with impressive speed, cooked to absolute perfection, and rich with exquisite flavor. From the stunning oceanfront view and stylish decor to the divine cuisine and Nikki's top-tier service, Waterman's Surfside Grille earns full marks from me.

I always say I'm going to branch out and get French toast or Pancakes but I can't never say no to the savory bacon and cheddar grits, or the fluffy scrambled eggs and biscuit that comes with the Little Cedar breakfast platter. It always pairs nicely with the Campfire Smores Latte which I highly recommend. My husband loves the Biscuits and Gravy. Prices are on point for the quality and service. So worth the visit, support the farms you drive by on your way too!

I recently stopped by Ohana & Co. at Red Mill in Virginia Beach after hearing about their banana…read moremalasadas. We actually drove about 30 minutes specifically to try them, but unfortunately they weren't available. Even though I was disappointed, I still had a really nice experience. The café wasn't busy when we visited there was only one couple dining in, it was clean, and the customer service was great. The employee who helped us was friendly, welcoming, and very kind. Since they were out of the malasadas, I decided to order the banana latte instead. I'd give it about a 7/10. For context, I'm always searching for a great banana latte because I love flavored coffee. One thing that frustrates me is when coffee shops advertise flavors like cookie butter, lemon pound cake, or red velvet, but the drink just ends up tasting like sweet coffee with no real trace of the advertised flavor. I was pleasantly surprised because this latte actually tasted like banana. It wasn't the best banana latte I've ever had that title still belongs to one I had in Las Vegas but it was definitely one of the better ones I've tried. The only reason it wasn't rated higher is because I noticed a sugary base flavor that overpowered the coffee a little for me. I personally prefer flavored lattes where I mainly taste the coffee cut with milk and the featured flavor heavily, not just sweetness. That's purely my preference. The fact that I finished the entire drink says a lot. I've had plenty of flavored coffees that I couldn't even finish because I disliked them so much. This wasn't one of those. I enjoyed it, and I definitely didn't regret ordering it. Now...the real star of the visit was the lumpia. It was AMAZING. Crispy, flavorful, and easily some of the best lumpia I've had. I actually tried another lumpia spot recently, and while it was decent, Ohana & Co.'s lumpia completely won me over. It's honestly the reason I'll be back. I have an eye appointment in the area next week, and I'm already planning another stop. I'll definitely be ordering the lumpia again, and this time I'm hoping they have the banana malasadas because that's what I originally came for. I also want to try one of their platters. Overall, I'd absolutely recommend giving Ohana & Co. a try. The customer service was wonderful, the café was clean, the banana latte was one of the better ones I've had, and the lumpia alone is worth the drive.

Yesterday, My wife and I drove down Baltimore because we were in a wedding and decided to catch our flight back to Las Vegas from Norfolk. Made a stop at the Virginia Beach for some one on one time. The beach is so beautiful by the way! Clean beach for the win! Let me tell yall!! The food was absolutely amazing! I had the Fish of the Day, which was Blackened Salmon, Garlic Broccoli, and Fries. My wife had the Blackened Shrimp Tacos and Rum cake. Let me tell yall, that Rum Cake was absolutely delicious!! The service was phenomenal!! Huge huge huge shoutout and thank you to Mario for making my wife and I feel so welcomed and taken cared of!! The Food and Mario's kind service is literally the reason this establishment is getting a 5 out of 5. If you go here, make sure to ask for Mario, he's great! On a side note, if you're not from there, it will be obvious. Some of the customers kept staring at my wife and I. Mario made sure we were comfortable, thank you for that!

This is what makes Pacifica my fave on the oceanfront (tourists - your welcome). Make the trip to Pacifica Ave and 34 (?), you'll be happy you did. Also try the chocolate blended drink - if you like White Russians and espresso martinis!

Ambiance: Very pretty and modern. Love the laid back vibes and atmosphere…read more Service: Our waiter was quick and polite. I asked him for a drink recommendation and he was quick and accurate in terms of recommending drinks he thinks I would like Drinks: Pretty good. The Negroni wasn't too bitter and had a good taste to it. I asked the waiter for a drink that was refreshing but not too sweet. He recommended the Lucille which was spot on. Food: This is where I was disappointed. Happy we went during happy hour because none of the food was worth full price. The chicharrones looked like store bought pork rinds and tasted like it too. The potstickers tasted like the frozen ones you get from the grocery store. The shrimp ceviche was essentially tasteless. Once the jalapeño ice cream melted, it tasted a little better but I wish they had served it with more onions and lime to give it more flavor. The goat cheese and olive was good but nothing special. I wish they gave us more bread REPLY TO BUSINESS OWNER: WOW, that was an extremely unprofessional reply. None of the cocktails we ordered were vodka redbull. Thanks for replying and letting me know to never return!
