    Single pancake
    N. S.

    Do you like brunch? If yes check out old dominion tavern! The food fresh takes on old classics great drink menus, friendly service and at a price that hits the flavor and perception of value. The restaurant has a tavern feel but is modern. I will return!

    1/2 oysters and dirty martini

    Came back for brunch again to try some new dishes. We shared the pancakes bites. Sweet light and surprisingly fluffy. I had the avocado toast. Very good. The dressing on the salad added a really nice and bright flavor. My father had the traditional eggs Benedict and he really enjoyed it. Once again very pleased with the food and service. Highly recommend!

    I've been into the Olde Dominion Tavern twice now - both times for breakfast. Both times I sat at the bar. The first visit - I tried out the Biscuits with Sausage Gravy with two eggs over easy. The second visit - I went with the Country Breakfast: Two eggs (over easy), bacon, breakfast potatoes (extra crispy), and wheat toast. Both meals were solid and tasty. They have some other interesting sounding breakfast items that I would like to try - including the Duck Hash and the Crab Cake Benedict. Service was good! #OldeDominionTavern

    B.A.L.T

    Good food with a Virginia twist in a warm pub atmosphere. Case in point the B.A.L.T. (Bacon, Avocado, Lettuce and Tomato) sandwich which has fried green tomatoes, pimento cheese and a spicy aioli. Definitely not your average BLT. Portion sizes (especially salads) are huge. I was there with a group of ladies and most ended up taking home a good portion of their meals. Everything was delicious and our server, Matt, couldn't have been nicer. Staying on top of drink orders and keeping the waters topped up. They do have a private room for groups and they also have patio seating for warm weather. Plenty of parking and easy access right off the 15. Highly recommend giving them a try!

    They got rid of the country music and it is awesome!!!! Dave, Jess, and Big Al all work their tails off and are great bartenders!!!!

    Short Ribs Benedict

    We have been at this spot twice for brunch recently, and we had completely different experiences from each visit. On the first visit, it was empty, so we had an amazing service. On the second visit, the service was really slow. It was also really crowded, and it looked like they were understaffed. Our server wasn't familiar with the menu at all. However, food was delicious in both visits with some hiccups (steak had to be refired). The place is quite spacious and we had enough room for ourselves even though the place was busy. I hope they improve on the service but I wouldn't mind visiting again.

    Brussel sprouts and truffle Mac

    I'm not sure where to start. I say this because I didn't get any pictures of the appetizers we ordered but just know they were phenomenal. To start we got the wings, the short rib and the baked Brie & omg was it delicious. Then there was the fried chicken entree and I know what you're thinking that's a lot of chicken but trust it was so worth the calories. They literally give you a WHOLE half of chicken so I just shared that with my husband with a side of truffle Mac and brussel sprouts. To say that we really enjoyed our meal and the service would be an understatement. Our server Hayden killed it!! He was the best and very attentive. Oh and the highlight of the experience for me was the espresso martini. Definitely the best I've EVER had. It was creamy and sweet! We will definitely be back! If you come here make sure you ask for Hayden and get you an espresso martini.

    Honestly, I can't say a single bad thing about our first experience here. To start, the cocktails were on point and made quickly - even though it was peak time on a Friday night. The old fashioned, martinis, and other specialty cocktails were awesome. Bonus points for the surplus being in an iced carafe rather than iced and melting in your glass. The half portion of the Caesar was huge, and im slightly obsessed with the lemon butter sauce the scallops came with. There was surprise pasta (or I missed it on the menu, which is possible) and it paired perfectly with the sauce. The truffle mac and the chicken were also delicious, and the service was quick and on point. Definitely looking forward to more regular visits since it's near where I live. Looking forward to trying the menu items I couldn't choose because one can only eat so much in one sitting.

    If you are ever in the Haymarket area you NEED to stop by this restaurant. My husband and I stopped in for a quick lunch before we head out for our Memorial Day trip and we were incredibly impressed. I got the BALT sandwich with French fries and my husband got the Hot chicken sandwich! Our server Erika was incredibly helpful with what the menu consisted of and was very polite. Also, for those of you who have nut allergies you do not need to worry about this restaurant they are nut friendly We will definitely be stopping back in especially for BRUNCH Reposting: because somehow my older review deleted!

    So I've eaten here about 5 times. It is OK, but at first glance it seems expensive. In reality some items are and some are not. The difference is portion size and quality. Yesterday I had the spicy chicken sandwich and my wife had the rosemary chicken sandwich. Both sandwiches were excellent and some of the freshest and juiciest checkin breast I have ever had. The portion sizes were large so for $15 each, I felt it was worth it. The only negative is the bottom piece of bread on my sandwich was soggy. Also, not really a fan of their style of French fries but I asked for extra crispy and they were cooked perfectly. This is purely a texture issue for me so can't fault them. Also, I had an appetizer which was the venison chili - surprisingly good but $10 for a bowl of chili is expensive. I'm not a fan of venison due to it being too gamy but this was not gamy at all so the flavor was appealing. Overall a good experience and our server Zack was awesome.

Each course was beautifully presented and the seasoning and flavors were perfectly balanced. We were really impressed. The chef came out to introduce himself and it was nice to be able to compliment him in person. He's been there just over a month, I think, and he is doing a phenomenal job!

To be a little more specific on the food, everything was either too salty, disproportioned, frozen(deserts) , stale( bruschetta and the tuna tartar cone) or just not cooked well.
