We recently hosted a private 60th birthday celebration at Sly Fox Speakeasy ( upstairs private…read moreevent space for 50 people within the New River TapHouse) and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. The venue provided the perfect atmosphere--elegant, intimate, and full of character. The speakeasy setting gave the celebration a unique and upscale feel that our guests absolutely loved. Kid friendly and offered a private bar with dedicated bartenders. The Deluxe Buffet Package was excellent. The house salad was fresh, the meatballs were flavorful, and the deviled eggs and crab balls were crowd favorites. The Chicken Parmesan and Pound for Pound Pasta were delicious and plentiful, while the roasted potatoes and green beans rounded out the meal perfectly. The assorted dessert tray was a wonderful finishing touch. The black and gold balloon arch and table decorations made the room feel festive and sophisticated, creating a beautiful setting for celebrating such an important milestone. A special thank you goes to Maria, the event coordinator, who was exceptional from beginning to end. She handled every detail of the event, including the space setup, food service, and decorations, with professionalism and care. Her communication throughout the planning process was outstanding, and she made what could have been a stressful event feel effortless. Thanks to Maria's attention to detail and organizational skills, everything came together seamlessly, allowing us to focus on celebrating with family and friends. The staff was attentive, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was unforgettable. We received countless compliments from our guests about the venue and the overall experience. If you're looking for a unique and memorable venue for a birthday, anniversary, retirement party, or other special event, Sly Fox Speakeasy is an excellent choice. We couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate a 60th birthday. Highly recommended!

The only way to get in is on special occasions so inquire within or on the Sly Fox website. The staff were so wonderful and kind really catering to our every need. We started with Infused water and mimosas. The Raspberry mimosa was sweet and bubbly with the perfect amount of raspberry sorbet. The food was beautifully displayed in a buffet style. Such a great variety. Fresh fruit of all kinds, french toast, waffles and chicken, biscuits and gravy, bacon, sausage , scrabbled eggs, quiche, house potatoes, deviled eggs, and a charcuterie board . On the sweet side they had mini cinnamon rolls, danish, brownies, cookies and cupcakes with the galentine theme. They had chocolate and chocolate covered strawberries with pretty pink food grade glitter. Plenty to choose from and plenty to eat. We loved it. In order to get into the speakeasy it is tickets only. We are looking on their website for the special events. Can't wait to see what they do for another event style. This time is was a Galentine Brunch.

My friend and I stopped by Twist last Friday to grab food and drinks after a long week. We…read moreabsolutely love Twist so we couldn't wait to go and enjoy. With it being a Friday night, we were hoping it wasn't too busy and thankfully, it wasn't. We sat at a table near the music and it was a bit loud but they did turn it down, which we thought was nice. The Gummy Bear Martini is one of my favorites so I started with that. Since they had a special menu, we wanted to try some of the new items. I ordered the Gumbo and we decided to share the Beef Empanadas. We also ordered the Bourbon Bacon Meatballs, which we love. The food was served pretty quickly. Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of the Gumbo! It had a peculiar taste that I couldn't quite pinpoint. The Beef Empanadas weren't bad but could've been seasoned better, I enjoyed the chutney on top. The Bourbon Bacon Meatballs weren't a hit this time, which was disappointing. We remembered them being more saucy and flavorful, but they tasted like the frozen meatballs from the store with some sauce on top. Very underwhelming. I grabbed the Bee Sting, which consisted of honey habanero moonshine, lemon juice and simple syrup and I loved it. We also ended the night with Espresso Martinis. Overall, the food just didn't hit the mark this time but the drinks were great as always. My friend even had them customize a drink for her and it turned out very good. Our server was absolutely amazing though! She was personable and made our experience very enjoyable. I'm sure we'll return because it's one of our favorite spots but I hope we have a better food experience next time.

So, I was hopeful that the WXYZ lounge and bar in Chesapeake would be similar and provide a great atmosphere to get together for a fun, chill hangout with our friends. We were not disappointed. There was ample seating and a large table where we were able to share a meal and play board games. The lounge has games in the lobby area, which we weren't expecting, but was nice to see. We had brought our own games. My friend ordered a mocktail and enjoyed it. The four of us ordered chicken buffalo dip and fish and chips to share. I couldn't eat the chicken buffalo dip because I have a dairy allergy, but everyone said it was good. I did really enjoy the fish and chips. The fries were hot, thick, and well seasoned. The cod was very tasty as well, the skin was perfectly crispy but the meat was tender inside. While we didn't take pictures of the menu this time, I took a look at the menu online and there are some options listed on the website that were not printed on the physical menus we saw, but for what was the same the prices matched. The fish and chips isn't on the website but was on the physical menu and was affordable (two pieces or cod and ample fries). Our server (also the bartender) was nice and provided good service. The hours that they're open make it a great hangout spot for Friday nights and weekends. The restrooms are clean. The noise level was moderate and fine. We definitely recommend for hanging out with friends and will be coming back in the future.

Overall this place was bad. The drinks menu was extensive and look great when they come out but…read moretaste terrible, it actually gave me a headache. I ordered the North Shore shrimp and the Hawaiian BBQ platter. I lived in Hawaii and this was NOT even close to Hawaiian style food. The Kimchee was soo salty, and the chicken taste like it came out of a bag and they put teriyaki sauce on it. The shrimp was not sautéd with butter and garlic, it was deep fried and had ZERO flavor, didn't even give you a sauce. Food was expensive also after 2 appetizers 2 drinks and 2 plates total was $125. Will not be back and don't recommend the food.

When you enter you will need to seat yourself at any clean empty table. The waitress will see you and come by with menus. There's typically just 2 waitresses somehow holding down the whole place but we've always felt attended to. Menu is tapas style, small plates. I love their fresh bread! They have a variety of rotating creative cocktails and mocktails. Seasonal bread puddings for dessert are a must. I've turned multiple "I don't like bread pudding" people into believers here. Live music is typical at different points throughout the night. It can get loud depending on how close you sit to the performers but there's far seating that allows for a more conversational volume. The crowd is age diverse but lots of Gen X and millennials. Great place to meet up with friends, do a casual date night, or sit at the bar and meet new people.

Here's the breakdown of today's line up: Bob's Biscuit and Gravy: First of all, the portions? Massive. The biscuit is incredibly fluffy, and that savory, rich gravy is pure comfort food heaven. It's a classic done flawlessly. Chicken and Waffles: The perfect sweet and savory synergy. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and paired with those golden waffles? Unmatched. Traditional Eggs Benedict: A textbook masterpiece. Perfect poached eggs with that gorgeous yolk pop, sitting on a toasted English muffin with a silky, rich hollandaise. 10/10 across the board. The vibes were immaculate, the food is incredible, and the service is always on point. Which one are you diving into first? Let me know!

She offered me some really nice suggestions, offered prompt service, and kept my coffee hot! I tried their breakfast chimichanga which is a very interesting and unique breakfast entrée. And since they offered sausage gravy, I ordered a side biscuit with a small side of sausage gravy, as I enjoy trying this when it's on a menu. The food came out rather quickly and looked amazing! The sausage gravy was very nice, the biscuit was great. The chimichanga was excellent and HUGE!! I liked the crema on top of it, but I really liked their selection of hot sauces, with their house-made "gator sauce" being my favorite. I definitely enjoyed this visit and would definitely return!

We had heard a lot of good things about Park Lane Tavern and decided to stop by for an early dinner…read moreafter The Yelp Event for Earth Day at Sundae Scoop. Located just to the right as you enter kemps River Shopping Center from Kempsville Road. We were immediately seated. Our server took our drink orders and left us to look at the menu. Our drinks were served quickly. My Friend had a Martini and I had a glass of Red Moscato. Their menu had something for everyone. Once I saw Corned Beef & Cabbage I did not need to look any further. I love corned Beef & Cabbage. Theirs was perfect. Served with whipped potatoes and whole carrots. I asked our server if the potatoes could be substituted for a double order of cabbage the next time and she said she was sure it could but may have a little extra charge. My Friend chose Jagerschnitzel. A German dish consisting of hand-flattened, fried pork loin, topped with onion and mushroom gravy. It was served with kraut, warm potato salad and green beans. She seemed pleased with her choice. Park Lane gives a welcoming vibe that makes me think of the old TV show Cheers. The kind of place that makes you feel like everyone knows your name. Sit at the bar, a high top table near the bar and watch The Big Game or take a seat on the other end of the restaurant and have a Family dinner or maybe a table for two. Park Lane Tavern is a perfect choice.

She and her husband go at least once a week, and almost always on half price Fish & Chips day, Guess what? It was Fish & Chips day, Since it has been a very bad week I ordered a Mimosa. Everyone in our party ordered Fish and Chips. I had cabbage substituted for the fries. The Fish was huge, fresh & tasty. My plan was to take half the fish home. It would be dinner with a Spinach Salad and fruit. That worked well. The Cabbage was wonderful. I can't wait to return and try the Corned Beef & Cabbage. Service was excellent. The Pub style atmosphere is inviting. The menu is quite varied with a number of European dishes. I've now had German and British. Next time my choice will be Irish.

While we did have a few bumps during our dining experience last night overall far as the ambience the service and the decor hands down Top Notch so a five stars it is! We were meeting others here for dinner last night so it was a party of six and we sat in the back area of the restaurant beautiful from front to end. Our waitress Chloe was amazing super helpful when asked for suggestions super patient as well as attentive throughout the night love her. The manager Kelly was super nice as well. My husband ordered the strip and fries and he loved it everything was cooked to Perfection for him. He ordered a Crown Royal and Sprite but it first came out as Crown Royal and Coke but our waitress quickly apologized and turn that back around and my husband had the Crown and Sprite while he wasn't a fan even though this is just one spirit with the mixer he said it wasn't good enough for another. He just stuck with his water for the rest of the night. Now on to me we started out with the Rockfish bites and calamari not a fan of calamari so I'll pass on that but it seemed to be a hit at the table I did finish up a few bites and they were very very good they also brought out complimentary bread I believe one was just a Italian and the other one was a honey oat or just Oat I had that with the butter as well as the olive oil very good I can eat the bread over and over again Lord forgive me nevertheless on to the drinks... I had the lavender drop martini and a margarita both 10 out of 10 if you like sweet go for the lavender drop if you like something strong Margarita it is and this is the first time I've ordered a margarita and it came out in a tall glass and I was a fan of it so kudos to JG for that... On to my meal I ordered the beef tenderloin and asked for a crabcake to be added and I chose the fresh green beans as my side. My meal came out first I could already tell the beef tenderloin was not cooked to my desire of medium well from what I know now someone else at the table had ordered a medium steak so I may have gotten her plate but I let Chloe know and Chloe was able to take that back and get it fixed it came back out still not to my liking however I did begin eating the crab cake and the green beans and they were divine... The third attempt Kelly the manager brought out my tenderloin and it was good at that point it was so good I couldn't stop eating so like I said even though with some bumps in the road throughout our dining experience last night still worthy of five stars super excited to return... I'm interested in trying the happy hour with the different martinis as well as small plates that are at a good price. Solid restaurant Beautiful Highly suggest you check it out if you are into chophouses. Have fun and enjoy life :)
