"Chicken or steak & shrimp" should mean you get shrimp with either a choice of chicken or steak and the same thing but with SuperNova and the description saying special spices, I didn't taste any special spices but maybe they were there? The waitress mentioned that supernova included the shrimp with either the steak or chicken. I got the steak but not the shrimp. I didn't ask about the shrimp part afterward and was just annoyed at the entire ordering process. The root beer float R2B2 I couldn't taste any orange Fanta if it was added in. Nice place and great hang out for sports games. Used to be a diner and they changed it up to reflect the theme. I like what they are doing even with the nice space stickers on the table. The menu needs to reflect wording better here.

Bulls & Bones: Burgers, BBQ & Brewpub has a lot of "B" alliteration going on. I felt like a steak when I visited, so I went for it. I got the USDA Angus Sirloin, which comes with two sides (I chose steamed broccoli and fries). The steak and sides were good and simple, which was just what I was feeling like that night. I visited Bull & Bones with a group of people, and we ordered a few appetizers to share, so I got to taste some things on the menu. First of all, we got complimentary potato chips for the table. Sweet! We also ordered the fried pickles (not my thing, but people were going off on them). Also, we got two orders of the wings: one was boneless wings with buffalo sauce, and the other was regular bone-in wings with Caroline Gold sauce. My favorite were the wings with Carolina Gold sauce, because of the flavor. They were so savory and slightly sweet. For dessert, we got the warm cookie with two scoops of ice cream (yum!) and the blueberry lemon cake, which didn't look like much but tasted amazing. A little bit of dessert goes a long way, and I think you could get away with sharing a dessert, for sure. The ambiance at Bulls & Bones is casual. It's a sit-down restaurant, but it's not fancy at all.

We tried four different beers, with our favorite being the Coconut Migration porter.

The patio seating is also beautiful, and we sat and watched a storm roll in while enjoying our brews. We didn't try the food, but the table next to us seemed to really enjoy the food. We will absolutely be back to get a new flight (they have a large selection of beers to try) and a meal to enjoy at sunset in the future.

The beer is good, the non-alcoholic options are also good (I like their ginger beer & lemonade). Recently got a summer racket which was their in-house light beer mixed with their in house lemonade - yum! Their food is also good, smash burgers and fries being the standout. Last time we got some of their pretzels as an app, but they were more like pretzel sticks that you warm up from frozen. Not taste bad, but just not a big pretzel like I had expected.

My first bite threw me a little -- the cheese wasn't fully melted, and I'm usually all about that stringy, gooey pull. But by the second bite, I got it: the tomato inside was still cool, so if the cheese had been melted all the way through, the tomato would've had to be piping hot too, and that would've thrown off the whole balance. Smart execution, even if it wasn't what I expected at first. The crinkle fries on the side were cooked to perfection -- crispy on the outside, exactly the right texture. This spot is a great late-lunch/early-dinner stop if you're passing through. Simple, well-made food that hits the spot. Will definitely be back next time we're on this road.

Oof where to start... went in on a Sunday night- not very busy. The restaurant was very dirty…read more There were at least 10 dirty tables sitting around. No one seemed interested in clearing them. The floors were so greasy they were slick as ice. Could have easily slipped and fallen. The floor was littered with straws and wrappers. Paper towel dispenser in bathroom didn't work. And then there were the French fries. Red Robin is renowned for their " never ending fries" right? Well mine came and they were actually hard - I mean snap in half hard. And not hot. So after a bit the server ( who was attentive and nice) asked if we wanted a refill. 20 minutes later- still no fries . Remember hardly anyone there . Finally the manager came by to check in on us- we mentioned the first fries were hard - he was very nice and very apologetic. He said that happens occasionally - so exactly WHY WOULD YOU SERVE THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE???? Meantime they served us ANOTHER basket of lukewarm , hard fries. Finally after all that the manager did serve us nice hot normal fries.

Word of warning: the Sunday Brunch menu is actually a breakfast menu with limited choices. Last time I checked, lunch items were not available on Sundays. TIP: on sunny days you may prefer to wait for a table that is shaded by an umbrella or part of the building, it can get pretty hot out there.

The Cellar is one of those restaurants where you might wonder, "Do they have ...?" And the answer…read morewill probably be, "Yes, they do have that on the menu." They have gyros, meatball subs, pizza, burgers, crab cakes, kabobs, chicken parmesan and lots more. I get a little squinky when I see a multiple-page menu with lots of random foods on it. But I visited with a group, and so I was locked into this place, whether I liked it or not. A quick internet and Yelp search told me that the things to get at The Cellar are the Greek gyro and the pizzas. I didn't want a whole pie just for myself, so I ordered the gyro. The Greek gyro was really good! It is lamb and beef in a pita, topped with tzatziki, lettuce, onion and tomato. All of the veggies were super fresh, and the pita was warm and pillowy. It's served with chips and a pickle. They actually have quite a few Greek or Mediterranean-adjacent items on the menu. One of the people in my group ordered the Black & Blue Salad, which is basically a salad with steak and bleu cheese on it, plus lots of vegetables. It was huge! She ate a lot of it, and it looked like she barely made a dent. When she put the leftovers in the to-go container, she almost needed two containers! It became a running joke that day and for a couple of days afterward about whether or not she actually finished that salad. This is also the location for the 6Pak Bottle Shop, which is basically a liquor store but intensely curated. They have a nice selection of craft beers and wine. There is also a bar downstairs, which I didn't have the pleasure of visiting. Another great thing about The Cellar is that they are open late! Sometimes until midnight, and sometimes until 2 a.m. I guess that makes sense, as they are located basically right across the street from Virginia Tech.
