    Food was good and served fast. I ordered cheeseburger opted for lettuce bun, they accommodated easily. The kids had crispy melted grilled cheese sammies, soda and chips! Great pit-stop after viewing the caverns and working up our appetites.

    Food was what I expected. Good assortment of soft drinks and ice cream. Definitely a menu any kid can eat from.

    I stopped in for dinner , after the Luray Caverns and Cooters, yesterday, June 13, 2026, and felt…read morethat warm, homy feeling as soon as I walked in. Shannon, the owner and I chatted for quite awhile on how "Ollie Cat Cafe" came to be. The restaurant location on how many different things it was previous was quite fascinating, soda shop, pharmacy, opera house. Loved, the vibe and feel from this small town cafe. The atmosphere, passion, and dedication of Shannon , as one of the owners is something; I personally haven't seen in quite awhile in a restaurant. I ordered the Panko seasoned flounder sandwich that was outstanding, delicious, light and flavorful. The sandwich came with the side, and was delighted that they were fresh vegetable medley with the perfect amount of seasoning. Wonderful staff and dining experience. If you are local to Luray, VA , Harrisonburg, VA or surrounding areas; support Ollie Cat Cafe, youll be happy you did. If your on vacation, and looking to support, a local hardworking couple and a unique flavor palate menu, that Tim & Shannon bring with their Florida background, this is your cafe.

    I was really pulling for this one, but it just fell flat where it really counted. The local…read moreneighborhood vibe was there, the eclectic decors was really on point and I loved the vintage booths. The waitstaff were very friendly, and the place was really well kept clean and presentable. The down side... right off the jump, the water they served us was not drinkable. I'm not being pretentious here, I was legitimately concerned after taking that first sip if I was going to spend the night over the toilet. I did not take another sip, and told my family not to ether. The food took a while, and I don't mind a wait for good eats. But the other reviews on here were right, it was tasteless and seemed to be served right out of a frozen food box. I had the chicken parm sandwich, the scolding hot marinara sauce was burnt by every measure, and the fried chicken patty was still cold in the middle. To the restaurants credit, they did not mess up the fry's. My family's meals were similar, with my wife having the cordon blue with similar results in the fried chicken, and my daughter who loves chicken fingers, not eating more than the one. Overall I think this place has the potential to be good, but they need to fix their kitchen before they do anything else.

    The Chop House Bistro is an absolute must. First of all, the…read morerestaurant itself is adorable. It's a house that has been turned into a restaurant, and it has the sweetest quaint charm. It was cozy, welcoming, and actually pretty quiet, which made the whole dinner feel relaxed and special. We had reservations and were seated right away. Our server started us off with fresh homemade focaccia, and my lord, it was delicious. So soft, airy, warm, and basically impossible not to keep reaching for. We all ordered the filet mignon, and every steak was cooked perfectly medium rare. Tender, seasoned beautifully, and genuinely melted in your mouth. You do get a choice of sauce, so we tried their house-made steak sauce. The steak honestly did not need a single thing, but the sauce was impressive too. Mild, a little sweet, a little smoky, and really well-balanced. My husband had the mashed potatoes and boldly claimed they were better than mine. I regretfully had to agree. My son and I had the goat cheese macaroni and cheese, and I am not exaggerating when I say it was the best mac and cheese I have ever eaten. We even asked for seconds to go, and I will absolutely be attempting a copycat version at home. We were too full for dessert, but I can promise you this meal did not disappoint. We will be talking about this dinner for years. We even said that if we were younger, we would totally plan an entire weekend around eating here again.

    We came here while visiting Luray for our anniversary. I had read really good reviews and we were…read morevery much looking forward to steaks to celebrate the occasion. The Chop House literally feels like a house and we really enjoyed the vibe. We were seated on the second floor and were welcomed with a little congratulatory note at our table. It turned out that everyone else on the second floor was celebrating an anniversary as well! The server was very sweet and really set the standard for kindness and making us feel welcomed. For dinner we had the filet mignon and the sirloin steak both with mashed potatoes. They were excellent and in my opinion better than Morton's. The bread they gave us prior to dinner also deserves a shout out. Really this was just the perfect experience for an anniversary dinner. I highly recommend The Chop House Bistro!

    After a day of spelunking...of sorts...we were ready for dinner. Before heading out to Luray, I…read moreresearched what restaurants were in the area. Circa '31 stood out as they had burgers, salads, sandwiches and some main courses. When we decided to go there, our son-in-law looked up the directions and we were pleased to see it wasn't far from the Caverns and an easy drive. The restaurant is in the Mimslyn Inn and is easy to find it once inside. Since we were having an early dinner, there was only one couple in the place. Our server seated and greeted our party of six. We sat at a huge table that could accommodate twelve. She arranged things so we were seated at one end. She took our drink orders. We all had soft drinks. I was pleased to see that they had sweet iced tea. Along with our drinks, we were given a bread basket and some butter with chives in it. The bread was fresh and the butter added nice flavor. For my main course, I got "butternut squash ravioli and lobster". This was a great dish. It consists of: "Butternut squash and parmesan ravioli with sauteed lobster and asparagus in a tarragon cream sauce". The delicate flavor of the butternut squash came through clearly. While the parmesan barely registered, that was fine with me. The tarragon cream sauce had great flavor yet it didn't overpower the components of the dish. The lobster portion was generous. Three in our party got the "Country Ham BLT". It consists of: "Fried salt cured Virginia ham, fried green tomatoes, crisp lettuce, pimento cheese on grilled rye served with a pickle and seasoned waffle fries". Those who had this sandwich raved about its flavor and its uniqueness. More than once they said how much they liked it. Two got the "Mimslyn burger" which consists of: "6 oz. local Burners Farm ground beef burger, lettuce, tomato, thick sliced red onions on a toasted brioche roll served with a pickle and seasoned waffle fries". One could add cheese for no extra cost and had a choice of different cheeses. Two added American cheese to theirs while one chose no cheese. One decided he didn't want fries and the server told him he could substitute a veggie from the selection in stock. He chose collard greens as he never had them before and wanted to try them. Everybody liked their burgers and fries. The one who got the collard greens didn't like them. To me, they looked bland and my guess is that was why he didn't like them. We didn't have dessert even though the offerings were tempting. I had hoped to post more photos but one of our grandsons offered to take photos of the sandwich, burger and collard greens...but...they didn't come out. The dining room has that southern charm to it. Our server was very nice and since it was slow when we were there, she engaged us in conversation. If you are in Luray and looking for a good spot for dinner, we all highly recommend Circa '31.

I took one sip and said I'd like to send it back (probably the first time I have ever asked to return a drink in my life). They charged me for the drink anyway. Ordered the duck. The mashed potatoes were good. The broccolini was acceptable, and the duck (ordered medium-rare) was medium-well done, and incredibly disappointing. My husband ordered the chicken. The chicken was acceptable, as was the broccolini, but the couscous was flavorless and gross. I would not recommend going here.
