    Reservations! If you're interested in eating here, make a reservation so you're able to get a seat faster. Parking validation is done at the kiosk, and there are small sofas and restrooms upstairs. We had no reservations but waited about 25 minutes for seats, which was fine because we were early to meet our friends, so we had to wait on them anyway. We got a table away from the windows but were still able to check out some of the view while we were leaving. The food here was fresh and delicious. Everything came out quickly and had nice presentation. My Korean beef bowl was okay but better with some spicy mayo. I see the idea behind it, but I think the shaved beef would be better as ground wagyu sprinkled with gochujang flakes. There wasn't a lot of flavor, but I can see the idea behind the dish.

    We wanted to do a nice brunch while at the beach and this was the perfect place! We had a reservation which is recommended. We were seated immediately right by the window and the view was incredible! Our waitress was super sweet and attentive. I got the peanut butter and banana stuffed French toast and hot honey chicken it was DELICIOUS! Especially if you love peanut butter like me. I also got a white peach mimosa and it wasn't very sweet which I liked. A great brunch with an excellent view!

    Pre birthday  drink - House of Rising Sun

    Beautiful layout and beautiful atmosphere with different views of the beach and have that city view as well this the place for you. Walking in was like a hidden gem or wonder the bar was very spacious and wide range where you had options before your table is ready to hangout at the bar and grab a drink. I got there house of rising sun cocktail it has a mild sweet and citrus flavor as well as the champagne cocktail it came with a pear as the top part to add that sweetness to make it more than what Is and everything is handcrafted they do also offer wine and beer a wide selection. They gave us a perfect layout for a party of 7 plus very considerate with making sure as people who arrive a little later were served as soon as possible and I do like services like that. I tried there 7 spiced Ahi super delicious and mix of light and bold flavors definitely a new favorite and I also had there Peruvian sushi rolls where that had more fresh and sweet taste and they had a lot of sushi options I pick this one it's little bit different from my normal rolls that I get and this was made on site fresh. The final chapter to close the night was green tea tiramisu and with suprise message, the dessert it self was nice and airy with the caramel sauce they use was amazing good. This place I highly recommend for all season long you have more options to enjoy the restaurant indoors and out. And since this was special day they made it extra special and easy and fast during a busy night like Friday and thru do also offer a late night O bar night out where they have a live Dj with good bites and drinks.

    Bento Box

    We came here last year for Christmas night dinner and decided to try it again! The restaurant is beautifully decorated with twinkling lights and white poinsettias leading up to the massive, breathtaking oceanfront view 23 floors up! We started off with fried pork dumplings and salted edamame. I ordered a mocktail that highlighted fresh ginger. Followed by a Caesar Salad. It featured baby romaine, shaved Parmesan and small, toasted slices of French bread with a creamy Caesar dressing. My choice for the next course was a Spider Roll with tempura fried crab, avocado, shrimp and lobster salad and eel sauce. I give it an A. My son had the Scallops served with kale ravioli. They were supposed to be jumbo scallops but were far from it. The portion was small in general. The pasta was under done. Let's give it a C. My daughter had the Half Chicken. It was cooked well. The gnocchi was "pad Thai gnocchi" and it wasn't really giving that flavor profile. We will give it a B. My grandson had the bento box. It included burger slider, delicious French fries, celery and carrots. He was very happy. This was a very expensive meal. We enjoyed it but not sure it was worth the cost with some of the portion sizes.

    The view is incredible here. However, the food was alright. The best thing was the sushi but their other entrees were bland and lacked flavor.

    Eggs Benedict
    Leira S.

    The atmosphere at this restaurant is remarkable to say the least. I ordered the Eggs Benedict from the brunch menu and it was honestly not impressive in the slightest. The sauce lacked flavor and the amount of food you receive is very minuscule. Our server Eric was also not as helpful with as multiple drinks and requests went unanswered.

    The atmosphere is beautiful. The presentation of the food was amazing. And the service was excellent! I highly recommend. To top it off is the view!

    Specialty Rolls: (L-R) Firework Salmon Roll, Peruvian Roll, Surf and Turf Roll
    Cristina Cici B.

    This place never disappoints. Whether I'm sat at the bar, the sushi bar, the restaurant, or on the rooftop patio, the food and service are always fantastic. This is that one place I am going to tell you to book WAY in advance for a good table, like 2-3 weeks in advance--at least. Service: 10/10. We were very well looked after and our server had us in fits of laughter each time he came to the table. It's always a blast when we come here and the staff are always friendly. Drinks: 8/10. I wasn't a big fan of the mocktails (DD, thank you. Take your judgement elsewhere.) My friend got an old fashioned and also rated it an 8/10. Food: 10/10. Each time I've come for the specialty sushi rolls and they never ever disappoint. The Firework Salmon Roll, Peruvian Roll, Surf and Turf Roll (SO GOOD) are my go to's. Overall, a solid 5 stars with a view you'll never forget. Remember to reserve a table at least a week in advance!

    Grilled swordfish. Bland.

    TL;DR: Horrible service and beautiful, flavorless food. All vibes and vision, terrible execution. My family grabbed a reservation on a Saturday, and I can totally understand things like rushing waiters, the kitchen being in the weeds and food being late. But none of that was happening here. We had a beautiful view of the full moon over the ocean. Gorgeous views. The front of the restaurant was full of life and the restaurant is gorgeous. Great vibes. Then we got the waiter, a disheveled man with a notepad (again, it's Saturday. I've worked in restaurants, it can get crazy. But he was slurring his words and slamming his hands down on the table as he talked and it freaked me out.). We begin ordering drinks and apps. The son of a gun is nice, but nothing exciting. The stinger mocktail is weirdly savory but I liked the rising sun cocktail. 3/5 The apps came: my husband's chicken yakitori and my son's miso, which was so salty none of us could take more than two sips. My husband will eat food so it isn't wasted and he just couldn't do it. We weren't the only party that complained about it either. 1/5 But where's my app? Oh, the waiter didn't even put my hamachi carpaccio on the ticket. Once I got it, it was good, though getting the yuzu pearls into the bite was impossible with a fork (no spoons) and I could do without the cilantro, I would've used shiso flowers. 3/5 Now entrees: the scallops were topped with big slumps of wet red pepper that ruined the crust, the corn "foam" was deflated with a skin on it so it must've been waiting a while under hot lights, and the quinoa was mixed with a creamy, pungent cheese that didn't go with the underseasoned, yet sweet, scallops. 2/5 for the scallops alone. My husband got the miso cod for our Swiss plate and the swordfish. Cod: bland! And look at those vegetables, not a speck of salt or pepper it tasted like frozen veggies from a bag. The swordfish also had no seasoning and the broccolini was overcooked. My husband eats everything given to him but he didn't want to finish his meal. 1/5 As for my son's children's yakitori meal? Again, THE WAITER DIDNT EVEN PUT IT ON THE TICKET! -5/5 But wait, when we got the check, we got double charged for the kids yakitori! And the miso we sent back. So we had the waiter go back and fix this mess. 0/5 But hey, the ocean was pretty. And the restaurant is nice to look at. If you're someone who likes to pretend to eat food and take IG selfies in an aesthetic space, this is the place for it .

    An over the top, awesome experience! We were sat at an incredible corner table with floor to ceiling windows and an awesome ocean views! Our waitress, Michele, was so very helpful for choosing from the extensive menu. She recommended the 7 spice ahi appetizer which was so Awe-mazing! We also ordered a Japanese old fashioned which was very good . . . light and fruity, and a House of the Rising Sun martini, which was sweet tart and included vodka, lychee, lemon, and blood orange. My swordfish was tender and moist and enhanced with peach, miso mash, broccolini. My husband's Pad Thai was just ordinary, he said, not unique but standard, lacked moisture and the noodles were gummy. He was disappointed. But overall, the atmosphere and experience was high-end and lux. We also had the great pleasure of meeting Noel Bugarin, the assistant general manager, who was so personable and gracious! I can't wait to return!

    Pan Asian Americans Restaurant with killer view It was brunch time, so I enjoyed pancakes and an adult beverage. While my friend ordered tacos as she wasn't very hungry. The plates were generously plated with a lot of food and served with a smile. The food was delicious but this restaurant is famous for their killer views of Virginia Beach for a very special and high level of this hotel. Valet parking is available for guests of the restaurant. You'll love the restaurant, the view and the tasty food.

    Sword fish
    LeAn H.

    Highly recommend making reservations before going - this place is the place to go for the scenery. We came here for dinner without reservations and were served pretty quickly, however, we were placed at the sushi bar by a dark corner... I didn't like that the bar stools couldn't move aside and Im glad I got the corner because that was where all the table and arm space was available. Food was just okay. I would recommend getting their featured Ahi Tuna nachos - it was a special the time when we went. The flavors on the nacho and tuna was...perfect. I loved the kick of flavor that it had too. We then order the sword fish and some sushi. The sword fish was pretty tough - I think they may have overcooked it, and the sushi...was just ordinary. Mainly, from a majority of the reviews I've read before coming here was pretty much just for the roof view. Def make reservations way beforehand.

    Back again! We were there for a office dinner this time and of course one of our favorite places to get together is this. Once you get your car valet, you get in and there is this grand wall decoration, and then you use the elevator to go to the 23 rd foot I guess. There are other options for parking too. After you get in, you get seated to the reserved seat. Well, it's better if you have a pre reserved spot for dinner. They have this amazing ocean view and an open rooftop lookout area. The food was amazing with great service. Will be back again for sure.

    I have a reservation for 5 tonight but now it is 6 attending, will they still be able to accommodate?

    It can get pretty crowded, I'd call them to confirm, they'll pry be able to make adjustments if they know ahead...

    Curious to know How much Additional Fees and Gratuity they charged on Top of Total Bill?

    none. The state and cities charge multi taxes, however.

    Do you all offer take-out?

    Are there tables inside near windows that allow you to enjoy the view while staying warm in winter?

    There are tables next to the windows in the bar, and the tables in the restaurant are elevated, so you can see out. Great views!

    Any dress code?

    Not that I'm aware of. I wouldn't recommend showing up in a swimsuit and flip-flops, but anything nicer than that wouldn't be turned away.… 

    Do u need a reservation or can you just walk in?

    We had a reservation, and it was busy enough that you'd probably have a long wait without one. I personally don't recommend Orion's Roof (see my review for details), but a lot…

    We decided to enjoy a late lunch--or perhaps an early dinner, depending upon your perspective--at…read moreThe Atlantic on Pacific, located along Pacific Avenue at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. One piece of advice: arrive a little before Happy Hour begins at 3:00 p.m. If you wait until then, you'll likely find yourself several people deep in line. Don't let that discourage you. Embrace it, because once you're seated you'll quickly discover that the wait was well worth it. The food is delicious, the portions are generous, and the prices--especially during Happy Hour--are outstanding. The Atlantic specializes in oysters, and their Happy Hour runs daily from 3:00-6:00 p.m., including weekends. We began with a Chopped Caesar Salad ($9). Every ingredient was crisp, fresh, and flavorful--a simple dish executed exactly as it should be. Next came the oysters: a dozen Rockefeller and a dozen Pacific. The Rockefeller oysters were everything you would expect from this classic preparation--rich, savory, and baked beautifully. The Pacific oysters, however, completely stole the show. Each oyster was topped with a delicious combination of chorizo sausage, pepper jack cheese, and seasonings before being baked to perfection. They were bold, flavorful, and easily my favorite item of the afternoon. I also ordered the Double Stack Cheeseburger ($7), and what a terrific value. The burger arrived piping hot, loaded with melted cheese, and accompanied by a generous serving of crispy fries. It's hard to imagine finding a better burger at that price anywhere along the Oceanfront. My wife ordered the pork, shrimp, and kimchi dumplings served with a chili crunch and ponzu sauce that tied the entire dish together beautifully. She jokingly threatened to drink the remaining sauce after finishing the dumplings (she didn't), but she did convince me to dip one of my fries into it. She was absolutely right--it was fantastic. In fact, I now regret turning down the dumpling she generously offered me. Part of the fun of dining here is watching Shuck-Master Slim work. He's not only remarkably skilled but entertaining as well, adding a little personality to an already enjoyable experience. From the fresh seafood to the outstanding value and friendly atmosphere, this was another memorable visit to the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. If you haven't been to The Atlantic on Pacific, I highly recommend adding it to your list. You'll be glad you did, and you can rest assured that you're helping support one of our outstanding local restaurants.
