They were fine but nothing special. Onion rings were also super delicious. Service was great! Very good Sav Blanc (the crossing)

Decided to stop here for a quick lunch, and we were quite hungry. Walked in the restaurant, which…read moreseemed sort of chaotic, as there was no one to greet/seat us, so we finally decided to seat ourselves. Shortly after we sat, one employee came and cleaned our butter-laden table. The stench of the rag used to wipe the table was stomach turning, and the smell lingered throughout our stay. After several minutes, another employee approached the table and asked what we wanted to drink, then walked off to fill our glasses. Then, another came to us with menus, then said she'd be back and walked off. A while later, the first employee came back with our drinks and said she'd be back. Almost fifteen minutes went buy and yet another employee came over to take our orders and asked what we were drinking. We placed our orders and then NOTHING. For over half an hour, we sat nursing our water and soda...after forty-some minutes, one of the employees said in passing it shouldn't be much longer for our order to be up. After another five minutes, we got our food. In their defense, there were two larger groups in the restaurant, but geez, the place wasn't THAT crowded. The food: standard fare, fried seafood, sandwiches,...it was OK, but the portions were huge. The pricing: pretty average, about $12-15/pp. The atmosphere: bleh. Outdated, sparse bathrooms, and the nasty smelling wash cloths......I don't want to think what the kitchen is like... The service: chaos. Nice employees, some were friendly, some acted like they were forced labor. But man, we didn't know WHO to ask about anything, so we just kept to ourselves as the clock ticked into the afternoon.... Overall? We won't be back. Why? I can still smell that washcloth. ICK.

Always excellent food from appetizers to desserts. Nice…read moreatmosphere. Great local crowd & the best bands on weekends. Be sure to get the ice cream!

What a great find in the cute town of Urbanna!…read more Stopped in for a late lunch on a beautiful afternoon and it was still packed inside. After eating the yummy food, I can see why it was still busy! Drinks has a fresh squeezed limeade and hubs had a beer and we both enjoyed them. Shared the pulled pork sandwich and tried both BBQ sauces and all of the above was excellent and a good portion of pork. The house made chips were also good and we got a side of their homemade ranch and honey mustard to dip the chips in! Dessert did not disappoint as we also shared the amoretto pecan pie! So good! They make all desserts in houses and it was hard to choose just one! Just means we have to go back to try another one! Service at first was a bit slow due to the restaurant being packed, but our server was kind and sweet, as well as apologized for a little bit of a wait. There is a large dining room, with a few high top tables and a mixture of large and smaller tables for seating, as well as a large bar area. Will be back to try more of the yummy food and pies!

Let the Good Times Roll!...A Weekend well spent with food, friends and family!!…read more Nestled around the waterways of the Chesapeake, Potomac and Rappahannock River...is a small tidewater town populated by more boats than people.....named Urbanna, VA. Although I was not born and raised in this small town, I have family here and during November the river home becomes host to many family members and friends from afar. Each November, the town of Urbanna throws the country's largest and longest-running Oyster themed--food and wine festivals called the "Urbanna Oyster Festival!" The town's streets are closed to vehicle traffic and become filled with oyster booths, seafood dishes, music and crafts. The festival highlight is the oyster itself and a shucking contest which draws spectators from around the world. The festival is held the first weekend of November each year, from Friday morning to ending Saturday night. For a town a little over 500 people, the annual festival's attendance over the two days is in between 50,000-75,000. During the festival, the town is closed to traffic in the afternoon on Friday and for most of the day Saturday. Admission to the event is free of charge, although there is a fee for parking within the vicinity of the festival. Home to the Oyster Festival for almost sixty years, Urbanna is synonymous with Chesapeake Bay oysters. Food, Wine and Arts n' Crafts...is the name of the game here! The food is provided in many different forms by over fifty vendors. The beloved oyster is always available in ample supply and in a variety of presentations: raw, roasted, fried, smoked, steamed, in fritters or in a stew. There is a plethora of eats to be had! In addition to the oysters, one can enjoy clams, crabs, shrimp, Philly Steak, oriental food, hamburgers, hot dogs, roast beef and other goodies too numerous to mention. Local Virginia Wineries offer up some of the best libation and even though its not my thing the hand made Art n' Crafts sold here invoke lots of great memories of the things my Nanna often crafted and loved. There is definitely a variety of crafts and artwork available for sale throughout the town and within Festival's village. Among the many offerings are handmade furniture, stained glass, antiques, wood carvings, sculpture, pottery, leather goods and jewelry. There is some of everything here at this festival for all ages. Hay Rides, Pony rides, amusement park rides and many outdoor games for the kids. For the adults, young and old....FOOD! Oh and did I say FOOD!?....No let me clarify GREAT INSANE FOOD! I have never been so stuff! This weekend was truly a great one. The perfect mini-vacation with family and friends! I mean....What better way to spend a holiday weekend and getaway from the "hustle n' bustle" of the city!? Come here with a big appetite because the folks native to this town are the most generous, hospitable people and welcome you with open arms! Each home and restaurant visited, we were shoved food in giant proportions. Small town charm and simple living is what you will find here in Urbanna, VA.....and based on the local eats and this festival...they clearly don't care about snobby paleo diets, low-carb desires, obsessive compulsions to the gym or your waist line...as in the city! LOL.
