    Chicken Tender Dinner with string beans and baked sweet potato
    Cory W.

    Just some good ol' comfort food. Tenders were hot, juicy and seasoned right, good sides and of course the yummy puff. Bathrooms were clean and even smelled nice. Staff was very helpful and friendly, especially the lady that was working.

    Regular diner. Food was good as always. However the portion size on my fries was concerning. $5 for an extra side is fine when it's not a child's portion.

    Two piece, fresh and delish - 4/26/23

    Fresh hot food...great ambiance (aka Quita)...and good selections. I wish it wasn't so far! I'd like them to put a location in Suffolk or Portsmouth. But, I'd travel for fresh hot food. I will say that the sides are just okay. It's like good cafeteria food. But the chicken, fish, fried puffs, and sweet tea are all on point! Ms. Quita took care of me. It was my first time visiting and her recommendations were spot on! She is pleasant, attentive, professional, and has a great sense of humor! Thank you Quita....Ms. Ambiance!! You ROCK!

    Just nasty! Barely breaded tenders are dried out and desperately need seasoning. Mashed potatoes seem like packaged, dehydrated mix as was their chicken gravy, bland. The corn was BROWN and each kernel deflated and smelled of canned corn. What has HAPPENED to this chain!

    A very nice lunch today at Pollards with a quarter chicken white meat and two sides. The chicken was super hot and delicious, I poured on some of the hot sauce that was at the table and skipped over the corn bread today. Cole slaw was cold and creamy and pretty good, but it did need some pepper to give it flavor. The collard greens were decent but very mushy. Clearly, the hit here is the chicken. Fountain coke products and ice tea (sweet and unsweet) available for beverages. [Review 10859 overall, 630 of 2019.]

    Back in the day this was my go to spot for fried chicken and delicious sides. Sadly, they aren't the Pollards they were back then. Many years ago I would have rated them at five stars but today they are just pretty average. They aren't bad but they're not great, a solid three stars. On my most recent visit they were properly observing COVID-19 protocols. Staff is friendly and polite, takeout service is efficient and accurate. There's no worry about parking as the large lot shared with the rest of the businesses at Glenwood Square provides plenty of space. The lot is well maintained and generally free of debris. Getting in and out is convenient with multiple access points, one of which is controlled with a traffic light.

    Terrible service and rude staff. Once the best local chicken. Sadly no longer. Counter employee called another customer a "dumb ass". She's in the wrong business.

    Dining area is very nice and clean.

    The puffs are also really good, especially when they have a little bit of honey on them.

    We celebrated my wife's birthday tonight at Prime 757 Steakhouse & Grill, just off Independence…read moreBoulevard in the heart of Virginia Beach. This was our first visit, but it certainly won't be our last. We were fortunate to grab two seats at the bar--our favorite place to dine--and from the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We started with the Oysters Rockefeller, which arrived piping hot. The oysters were large, flavorful, and perfectly prepared--a wonderful way to begin the evening. Our Caesar salads followed shortly thereafter. Crisp romaine, fresh ingredients, and a well-balanced dressing made for another excellent course. For our entrées, we both chose the steak and lobster tail. My wife paired hers with the grilled asparagus, while I opted for the loaded mashed potatoes. Every component of the meal was cooked exactly as ordered, seasoned beautifully, and absolutely delicious. To top off the evening, the staff surprised my wife with a complimentary slice of cake garnished with fresh strawberries and mixed berries to help celebrate her birthday. It was a thoughtful gesture that made an already memorable evening feel even more special. Prime 757 delivered exceptional food, outstanding service, and a warm atmosphere that made my wife's birthday celebration one we'll remember for a long time. We left impressed and are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended.

    Regrettably I don't have any pictures to share but let me tell you how much we enjoyed our dinner…read moreat Prime 757. First off, I loved the look and feel of the place. Has a modern day look and feel. Our server, Taylor, was awesome. She was so kind and thoughtful and made the dining experience very pleasant. Now onto the food. Started with a shrimp cocktail. The shrimp were a perfect size and the presentation was unique. I had the Ribeye, Oscar Style, and added on a Crab Cake and my friend had the Salmon, Oscar Style, and to say we were impressed is an understatement. Everything was perfectly cooked and every bite was delicious. I really wish I had pictures but I will be going back very soon and will take some pictures. Do yourself a favor and give this place a shot. You won't regret it.

    We just finished celebrating Easter brunch/Dinner today on a Saturday. We are first timers with…read moreTraditions, but I must say our family was extremely impressed from start to finish! We ordered takeaway Easter brunch that needed to be pre-heated before serving. We had a choice of shrimp and grits or salmon but since we had a larger order we were able to do half and half and have the best of both worlds. Ordering and paying ahead before the deadline online was simple! If you have questions prior to ordering just call. We had certain requests and were informed over the phone it was feasible but to type it in under the special instructions box when ordering. Everything was delivered as ordered and promised! No issues at all! Once we arrived we just called and the gentleman came out promptly to our car with a cart and our Easter brunch neatly and carefully packaged in sturdy brown handled paper bags. The kind gentleman showed us the reheating instructions and explained to us briefly the timing. He took care to inform us which bag to keep horizontal so it would not spill. It was stapled shut and handed to us in the horizontal position as well. Hence to avoid confusion and prevent disastrous spillage. This was greatly appreciated! The food was neatly and carefully packaged with each aluminum sturdy container marked with its contents. Once again very smart and greatly appreciated! We just had to pop in the entire container in the oven. No fuss, no muss. Most items ranged from 10-12 minutes to re-heat some 15-20 minutes. The quality and quantity of food did not disappoint!! Pricing is definitely not cheap but the amount and quality of food is without a doubt worth every penny!! Even better was that none of us had to cook! Win win!! EVERYTHING was delicious! But the real stars were the grand marnier bread pudding, which not everyone can get bread pudding right, but this was heaven on earth for sure! The salmon was cooked perfectly. It was flavorful and a good size. The shrimp and andouille sausage shrimp and grits were hearty and delightful! Crab cakes with aioli.. slap me happy with seafood -very good! The food list goes on and on.. and I'm not complaining! The mushroom quiche with goat cheese was another big hit along with the breakfast foods of honey baked ham with pineapples and pecan and applewood bacon. We are soo full we haven't even tried the coconut pie! Thank you,Traditions, for helping to make our Easter a pleasant one with our bellies full and content. Feeling very blessed! Thank you, Jesus, and Amen!! P.S. Thank you Shawn Hoffman for calling us back to answer our questions!

    My family hired Traditions to cater their business's company Christmas party at Chesapeake Golf…read moreClub that was last week. Everything was beautifully decorated. There were Christmas trees, Christmas lights strung, and the tables were gorgeous with green and red linens and white chinaware. Along the wall was a beautiful display of hors d'oeuves like artichoke and spinach dip with crackers and pita points, cheese, and fruit. The dip was delicious! They had coffee, lemonade, tea for drink. The servers gave out the salad. It was lovely display of greens with cucumber and tomato. On the table were the boats of ranch or Italian vinaigrette. This also was delicious. On the far back wall was where they had the buffet style dinner. They had roasted potatoes, rice pilaf, and asparagus for the sides. The potatoes and asparagus were perfectly seasoned and cooked. I didn't feel the same for the rice. It was completely tasteless and left me disappointed. The main entrees were roasted sirloin with horseradish sauce and a pepper crusted salmon with mango cilantro. The sirloin was not really hot and also not seasoned well enough. The sauce was delicious though. The salmon was picturesque. It looked like it was out of a cooking magazine, and I wanted to love this so much buuuut my salmon was just a tad undercooked. I want to make this clear: everyone I talked to enjoyed their meal. I had someone tell me their salmon was over cooked. I had another loved their roast. And another dislike it as much as I did. There was a complete mix of opinion when it came to their food. Maybe it was just the menu selection that was chosen. Anyway, this place was great! I'd definitely come back again. The servers were great, the decor was lovely. Come check them out!
