When it is cold, do not sit near the door because there is a strong, cold draft that is constantly blowing. Mak made me a delicious mocktail. She was also an excellent server. I had the crab dip and the shrimp and grits. The dip did not have enough crab meat and the mayonnaise was overbearing. The shrimp and grits were okay, it was a little too soupy and greasy. The restaurant is small and quaint, but it adds a nice touch to that area.

Snow Crab legs, shrimp, 2 corns, 2 potatoes, and sausage was seasoned just right. The corn and potatoes were cooked to perfection. The restaurant had a good amount of people dining in.

Our visit to Twisted Crab featured the T1 special combo, which offered solid value for 1/2 lb snow…read morecrab, 1/2 lb shrimp, 1/2 lb sausage, plus corn and potatoes. The twisted sauce seasoning (all sauces combined) was flavorful; however, the potatoes were slightly overcooked. The primary reason for our four-star rating was the slow and inattentive service, despite three servers being on duty. Upon arrival, we waited at the entrance for a bit until a delivery driver walked past us and was assisted first. We also observed another table waiting to place their order request to move to the bar because no one had serviced them. While the food was enjoyable, we would choose to dine elsewhere due to the service experience today.

They have a few items of each type of food so there are salads, veggies, meats and seafood. We tried their ribeye with baked beans and Brussels sprouts. I enjoyed the chimichurri ribeye with the baked beans. I added their house marinara to the steak and beans and it was delicious! We also had their cheeseburger and it was ok. Two smash patties with usual condiments with short French fries. Their dessert was very good. Customer service is very attentive without being annoying. Very polite, knowledge of the menu and quick to follow up for drinks and see if you need something. Sandman Grill is a very nice local bar and restaurant that makes you feel welcomed and with good food in a nice place to relax.

Over the weekend, Sophia and I dined here to continue celebrating my birthday for the month. Park…read moreLane Tavern has been one spot that we've been to over and over. Whether it's with friends or just the two of us, we've never been disappointed. Let's see how this visit went. We were immediately seated once we walked inside. It wasn't completely packed for a Saturday afternoon but staff was really busy with customers. The vibe was one that made us comfortable for the most part. After a few minutes of looking over the menu, we were ready to order. My selection was the Tavern Monte Cristo which consisted of chargrilled chicken and ham as the protein with Gouda cheese and cider aioli fried in a tempura batter with tavern fries. The meal was served hot and ready and tasted great. And having the cranberry coulis as a dipping sauce really added some taste. My only gripe with the sandwich was the amount of protein. I'm not sure if I ate most of it when we dined in, but when I ate the rest for dinner, it was more breading than anything else. Still good but they could've included more. Nonetheless, I was full. Good stuff as always from Park Lane Tavern :)

I came with a girlfriend after a workout for a healthy-ish dinner. We came around 9:30/10 & probably left right before closing because we were yapping. Food took a while to come out - we ordered calamari & goat cheese for appetizers and two salads that we ended up boxing up as the appetizers were filling although they didn't look very appetizing. The grilled chicken salad I got to go ended up giving my partner bubble guts even though it went straight in the fridge when I got home & the fruit vinaigrette tasted very artificial, even plastic. We were sat at a booth & felt a little rushed. The servers started sweeping the floors loudly but it was ten til closing so they probably wanted to get us & the last couple tables out. If I were ever to come back maybe it would be for lunch or a Wednesday Wellington night but although the decoration is fun, I feel much more welcomed at the smaller Kempsville VB location.

Her name was Jen and she was amazing!!! I would totally go back to be served by her. The food was amazing I got 6 "laughing king" oysters and oyster chowder. My husband got the oyster po boy which he would rate an 8/10 (there was a lot of bread but still great) but the shoe string fries were easily a 10/10. I will definitely be back for this downtown corner cute wharf-like vibe!

While this restaurant isn't on the water, it's definitely close (2 miles) to a beautiful beach. The ambiance of this place has a great vibe. The interior decor has a great bar setting where you can sit up and watch TV and order some ice cold oysters. Or you could grab a table inside or outside and visit with family. We opted for the outdoors as we had a quick glimpse of sun on this rare April day, and got to sit under the umbrella patio. Our waitress was super accommodating and brought us our four oysters and tuna salad with shoestring french fries very quickly. My daughter ordered the fried fish sandwich that had melty cheese and some tartar sauce on it. It was a solid sandwich, nothing to write home about, but definitely gave us a beach ocean feel vibe. Four oyster sampler went from sweet to salty and didn't disappoint! They were fresh. They were cold and they had a great minionette and spicy horseradish to accompany.

We ordered onion rings and calamari as appetizers. But the calamari was frozen and it would be a while before it was be ready so we got the crab dip instead, which I absolutely loved then we asked if we could have more pita chips for it and she said yes you get eight more for a dollar. Excellent deal so we did that. My husband got a rum runner I got a mango colada and my mom got a virgin mango colada all were very good. My mom got a scallop meal fried with potato salad, I got fish and chips with coleslaw, and my husband got fried oysters with collards and potato salad. All our meals came with delicious hush puppies. Everything was delicious, large portions, we were stuffed. The restaurant was clean and attractive. We had a very nice time. Staff seem friendly and like their jobs, which is nice to see.

This past weekend, I visited, and it happened to be Restaurant Week. My go-to meal is their crab cake sandwich and fries, but I ventured out and tried their special: New England Clam Chowder and Seafood Mac and Cheese. The chowder was okay. The clams were a little chewy and it lacked flavor; needed a few more dashes of salt at the least. The seafood Mac and Cheese had potential. The crab meat on top looked enticing. The noodles were cooked to perfection. But the flavor was also lacking. It was not cheesy enough to call a Mac and cheese and again needed more salt and/or other seasonings. There also wasn't much seafood to boast about. Maybe a scallop or 2, a very small quantity of shrimp....the crab meat and roll were the highlight. 3 STARS (for this visit). The service was GREAT! Attentive, fast, and friendly. But I was disappointed with this dish. I'll be back. I'll get my crab cake!
