    Great bartender, she's comical!! Definitely a great spot to hang out during the week since it's not too crowded.

    Wednesday Wing Day at Buckets Bar and Grill is the ticket! Just don't mind the little bit of a wait…read moredepending on the time you arrive...and you won't be disappointed! The food is good! There are seats at the bar, high tops, and tables, so just be patient and claim your place when one frees up. The servers will appreciate you. Our server, Makaya S. was amazing. She was friendly and attentive. We enjoyed our orders of traditional wings. My husband ordered his in Nashville Hot, but I opted for Mango Habanero for my flavor. Yummy! We shared fries, which were pretty good, just needed a little more salt. My husband really liked their sweet tea, but I enjoyed a refreshing Bold Rock Imperial Berry on draft! This sports bar & grill restaurant was busy, most likely due to the special on wings, but the arrival of our food orders to our table was so fast! Thanks to Buckets and your kitchen staff and notably quick servers for making Wednesday a great dining option for Chesapeake!

    This is a loud and boisterous sports bar. Friendly and there were kids here with some sort of bingo…read moreor trivia going on. I was able to tune it out and enjoy my dinner. A plate of chicken wings, hot buffalo, took about 25 minutes. A long time but the place was busy and I enjoyed two light beers while it took a while. The wings were fresh and hot, decently meaty and enjoyable, served with two pots of blue cheese and celery. Booths and tables and bar seating. If you're looking for a quiet meal, this isn't the spot. If sports and wings and beer is what you want, this is the spot. [Review 902 of 2025 - 1491 in Virginia - 24458 overall]

    It has been nearly three weeks; I can stop thinking about No Frill Bar and Grill…read more I'm a military spouse, so I know my time in Hampton Roads is coming to an end soon. I visited a Hampton Roads Restaurant group on FB and asked if someone was visiting from out of town: What is your go-to place to take them? Out of 90+ comments, No Frill Bar and Grill was mentioned the most - six times! So when I finally had a day off and some other business to tend to in Norfolk, it was the perfect excuse to finally try them. No Frill Bar and Grill has been open for nearly 30 years by Jerry Meltsner. Jerry's nephew Jon Kliner helps co-own and manage operations. It originally opened on Tidewater Drive, but the space didn't allow for much growth - 10 years later, he moved to a location off Colley Avenue and Spotswood Avenue. Growth continued, moving from counter service to table service. The second location, at 1620 Laskin Road in Virginia Beach, opened in 2005. The restaurant's longevity stems from quality, consistency, price, service, and staff who genuinely care about the business and serving the community. I asked the server for her opinion on two options - Salmon, Shrimp and grits won. The dish was incredible: lightly blackened salmon, for once blackened food that doesn't just taste like salt. I don't dine with the swine, so I asked for no andouille sausage. The sautéed shrimp, caramelized onions, tomatoes, and spinach simmered in Norfolk Canyon ale sauce over cheesy grits and Boursin lavash cracker. The cheesy grits were smooth, and the Boursin lavash cracker was a nice touch. The Boursin added extra creaminess to the meal. The cracker wasn't really a cracker - more like little toasted bread. After this first meal, I know two things for sure: 1. I definitely understand why it is such a local favorite, and 2. I will be back.

    My husband and I enjoy No Frill when you're in the mood for just that -- no frill, laid back, good…read morecomfort food. the portions are huge and it's always consistent. The service is always great and the hosts/servers are always friendly. Our go to is the meatloaf. when you're looking for a good ol' comfort food - that's the best. They also have amazing desserts that are worth a try. We found this restaurant good for families (including our toddler)! Food was toddler approved!
