    Hamburger and Cut Fries
    Laura U.

    We were heading back from Fort Mason after a full day of sightseeing and were definitely ready for a good meal. While walking downtown, we came across Hell's Kitchen and decided to stop in. It's a cute little pub with a small bar area and seating for maybe 10-12 tables( cozy, casual, and welcoming. We ordered hot dogs, hamburgers, cheese sticks, and the burnt ends appetizer with mashed potatoes. Everything was genuinely delicious, and we all finished our plates. My daughter, my niece, and I especially loved the burnt ends. They were flavorful, tender, and honestly big enough to pass as a full dinner. Definitely a highlight. The only thing to note is that the prices were a bit on the higher side, but since it's downtown (I think), that might just be normal for the area. We're visiting from out of state, so it's hard to compare. Still, it was a great spot for a quick bite after a long day, and we left happy and full. Overall, a nice little find and a place we'd recommend if you're nearby and looking for something tasty and convenient.

    Stopped in for a quiet bite on a Thursday and they had a burger special, like $4 each? Burger was delicious and service was amazing.

    Southwest Eggrolls

    Stopped in on a Wednesday night and was not disappointed! We popped in around 6:45 as a party of 7 with no reservation. They seated us quickly despite being rather busy. For our appetizers we got the southwest egg rolls, nachos, seafood nachos, and the Nashville hot pizza. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM WAS PERFECTION. The overall winner was the pizza. The signature honey hot was *chefs kiss. I ordered the buffalo chicken wrap and it was good but I prefer for the tomato slices to be diced a little smaller. It was also a little different than I expected on a sundried tomato basil tortilla. My fries were incredibly salty so I didn't end up eating a lot of them. They accidentally gave me Mac n cheese but that was very tasty! Our server was awesome and incredibly knowledgeable of the menu. We will definitely return! *** they have a slideshow of memes that run on a loop on the tvs. They are inappropriate but freaking hilarious. We laughed all night.

    Review is for takeout. I ordered lunch online from here while staying right around the corner at The Main. It had just opened at 12 pm, so they weren't busy at all. We came right at the time to be ready for pickup, and it still wasn't ready. It was ready about 10 minutes later. We ordered a cheesesteak and fries, a cheeseburger and fries, and two sodas. My cheeseburger was very good. The only thing I must note was that I had asked for a medium well burger, and it was very pink inside. Their fries were different, but I loved them! They were smaller sliced potatoes instead of long. Hubby stated that his cheesesteak, although yummy, had a burger texture and taste instead of the usual cheesesteak. Overall, the food was good, but I failed to cook my burger the way I wanted. For that, I have to give them four stars.

    When I'm in a town I'm not completely familiar with, I rely on reviews to steer to the great local eateries. More times than they're spot on with the recommendations. This is one of those places. I was greeted immediately and given a menu. It looks a bit divey but cool. The staff was super attentive but not hovering. The menu is a mish-mash of favorites. So there's all sorts of choices. That makes it harder to choose. I ordered the crab cake sandwich with some mac and cheese. Great combo for my carb load. This place is going to be my go-to next time I'm in Norfolk.

    The food and service was great! I loved the dark atmosphere. I sat down and was greeted right away. This was my first time here and the waitress was more than willing to suggest her favorite things on the menu (that's a good sign if the staff will eat here) . I highly recommend the wrap below!!

    One of our favorite restaurants was closed, so we headed over here, and we are so happy we did. The crab soup was absolutely delicious, and so was the crab dip. I was so hungry I didn't even get a picture of the seafood Alfredo pasta, that was also very delicious. My husband's buffalo chicken cheesesteak wasn't the best, but he really enjoyed the asparagus and nibbling off of my food. The service was good, our waitress was attentive, and everybody was really friendly. Everything seems fairly clean in here, we did not use the bathroom, but I presume it would be clean as well. One cool thing, if you want to pay less , bring cash. The credit or debit option is higher. They also have a bar, if you're looking for some alcoholic beverages, selection. Stop by if you haven't already !

    I've been coming here for 6 years and it's honestly my favorite bar in Norfolk. Everyone is super cool and the vibes are always there. I've had ALOT of items off their menu from their steak bites to their vegan quesadillas and you truly can't go wrong with what you choose.

    This will be the last time I ever eat anything from this Hell's Kitchen. My coworkers placed a pick up order for lunch and this is what we got. Why would you serve someone this crap? Also, my coworker who placed the order called them to let them know that we were dissatisfied with our meals and they didn't offer an apology, didn't offer to remake it nor did they offer a refund. Never again.

It was a little chilly tonight, but I imagine the outdoor seating would be perfect on a warmer evening. We didn't have a reservation, but luckily we were seated within seconds. The space itself is on the smaller side, but it's thoughtfully designed and perfect for a cozy date night. Every employee who passed by greeted us, which made the atmosphere feel especially welcoming. We started with the octopus, served with potato foam, pickled pear, and chorizo. For entrées, he ordered the duck and I had the pork bolognese. Both dishes were full of flavor and cooked perfectly. We also ordered drinks. I do wish they had come out a bit earlier so we could enjoy them sooner, but the selection was impressive. We chose the bartender's choice, which was a really fun experience. The waitress asks a few questions, and based on your answers the bartender creates a drink they think you'll love. We were too full for dessert, though they did offer four different options. Overall, we were really happy we tried this restaurant and will definitely be back.

Bartender was incredibly attentive for having a full bar. We each had 2 different cocktails and both were distinctive and excellently crafted. 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. The staff was great with our large and rather disruptive group. The food was all excellent (local oysters on the half shell and the apple desert were my highlights). 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. This is, I believe, some sort of credit card fee. Both times were good. Both times staff were wonderful. Both times we were comfortable. Give the place a try. I don't think you will regret it.

For my entrée, I got the Boursin Chicken. It wasn't bad, but it needed more seasoning for me personally. I also wasn't a big fan of the sun-dried tomato mashed potatoes, it just wasn't my preference. I did try the beef bourguignon and liked that more. For dessert, I had the lemon soufflé, which was light and really good. Overall, the $28 deal is a great value and the experience was enjoyable. Not every dish was my favorite, but nothing was bad. I would go back, especially to try their Moroccan Monday menu.
