Even when it's crowded, the service is relatively good, and I really like the music posters around the area. There are some pool tables in the back, but good luck to you if you want to play on weekend nights, as the line fills up pretty quickly. It also gets insanely crowded in there on weekends, so if you are not a fan of crowds (like me), I would go here on a weekday.

I love a good theme. I especially love when a restaurant is creative enough to implement a theme…read moreand stick with it. The theme at Lost in Taste is space. (Get it? Lost in Taste? Lost in space?) From the shiny chrome restaurant exterior that resembles a space ship, to the menu that has things on it like The Black Hole (a black bean burger) to the Creamy Spudnik Soup (potato cheddar soup, basically). It's all outer space, all the time, at Lost in Taste. I visited Lost in Taste with a group, and we all got a bunch of different things. One of the things that was first on my list to order was a cup of coffee. And even though I was visiting for a late lunch, they had coffee brewed and ready to go. Sweet! That perked me right up. My group got a few different appetizers for the table. We got the Canis Comets, which are huge hush puppies (think palm-sized) served with blackberry jam and round balls of soft, salted butter. They came three to an order, and they were delicious, and definitely enough to feed six people because we cut them in half. Another appetizer we ordered was the Big Bang Shrimp, which was breaded shrimp topped with a drizzle of signature sauce. These were delicious, too! The Big Bang Shrimp come eight to an order. One of the people in our group was a wing aficionado, so we also got the traditional, jumbo, bone-in wings, which are served with chips. There are nine different sauces to choose from, and we got the wings slathered in Jupiter's Storm, a mango habanero sauce. Very good! I don't typically like bone-in wings because I think they are a scam, but I appreciated the sweet and savory flavors of these wings. As for me, I got the Caesar salad (meh) and the B.L.I.T. sandwich: bacon, lettuce, interstellar tomato and mayo. It was very good and huge! If you like bacon, then this is the sandwich for you. Lost in Taste is space themed, but it also has an old-fashioned diner vibe. It's a fun restaurant to visit if you want diner food, and also be surrounded by space.

Friendly staff, the pasta and steak were good. Salad was nice. Menu was not accurate for what was…read moreactually served and the respective waitress didn't seem to be sure. "Chicken or steak & shrimp" should mean you get shrimp with either a choice of chicken or steak and the same thing but with SuperNova and the description saying special spices, I didn't taste any special spices but maybe they were there? The waitress mentioned that supernova included the shrimp with either the steak or chicken. I got the steak but not the shrimp. I didn't ask about the shrimp part afterward and was just annoyed at the entire ordering process. The root beer float R2B2 I couldn't taste any orange Fanta if it was added in. Nice place and great hang out for sports games. Used to be a diner and they changed it up to reflect the theme. I like what they are doing even with the nice space stickers on the table. The menu needs to reflect wording better here.

There is also a section with dartboards so you can play with your friends.

I haven't been to a wide variety of eating establishments in the Blacksburg college town area so I…read moredon't have a lot to compare Centro to which is why, for now, 4 Stars is what I'm giving this place as my inaugural rating. BUT....signs are REALLY PROMISING FOR AN UPGRADE TO 5 STARS if the 2 times I've been here - once in July and then a few weeks ago before the start of classes - are any indication. This was a total stumbled-on find for us and Yelp once again assisted us in picking this little gem. We were looking for a dinner spot, in the mood for anything, just wanted to find someplace with good reviews, went searching on Yelp and came across Centro. Prices were just right and street tacos sounded amazing and a healthier choice - but not too healthy lol - than a greasy burger joint, fast food or an overpriced sit down. Finding the place, at night, was tricky believe it or not. There were noooo pics in Yelp of the shopfront (there are now, check 'em out) and we went up and down the block where google maps indicated it was. Folks - it's a 2nd floor place with 2 small front entrances - the main one right on N Main - a tiny door with a big illustrated skull on the black awning (hard to see in the dark) - sandwiched in between Poor Billy's (on the corner of N Main and Jackson) and Boudreaux's. The other entrance to Centro is on Jackson, just around the corner. Just outside the Jackson entrance, you'll see the makeshift outside dining area for Centro - like 5 or 6 table/chair sets roped off as the street is still a through street for traffic. Clever outside dining area actually - tables are sufficiently distanced, servers wore masks, tables are cleaned diligently and only QR code online menus! Oh and on warm, sunny days, there is large-tree-shade providing nice relief. Way to go! Okay - now for THE FOOD! Sooooooo gooooood! Caveat: we've only ever had the a la carte street tacos and the side order of chips and salsa and guac. That's all. But that's been plenty for us and sufficiently filling and satisfying. The menu isn't extensive and they're not Taco Bell (thank goodness!) or On the Border - but Centro doesn't need to be. I figure their limited menu allows them to focus on QUALITY and what they do best. And it shows - YUM. Value: Absolutely excellent value! Way to go Centro for making your fare way-affordable for students! Totally worth the cost. Quality and fresh ingredients and generous portions on each taco. Lime wedges are a nice touch. The tray of chips is overflowing and enough to group-share. The guac is house made (you can tell) and the salsa is pico de gallo style. They have other hot, medium and mild sauces they'll bring you upon request. Service: Amazing! :) Both times, our servers were on-it, polite and responsive. Our wait for food was minimal (though truthfully, both times we went during non rush). Centro ROCKS. Give them your business and tip your server generously - they're worth it and worth keeping them going! Hoping for huge success for Centro as the new school year begins and as small local businesses like Centro are coming out of the Covid shutdown.

In the middle of downtown Blacksburg is a popular pizza spot. Our group was fortunate enough to…read moresnag a table for our other group. The menu has a large selection of pizzas, appetizers, and sandwiches. Their cocktail menu is just as large as the food menu. Lots of craft beers and lots of unusual cocktails.

The pizza was one of the best pies I've ever gadZ the homemade crust took all the attention. The meat variety was perfect on this pie. Even sharing this 12 inch, I still had a large slice leftover. Note: they do add 20% tip to large parties.

They must use a fruit mix like orange-pineapple because it was overly sweet. Personal-size "square" of Sicilian-style pizza on thick flavorless bread dough not pizza dough. They are not kidding when they say their Pasta Alfredo is in "Heavy Cream Sauce." It was so greasy I could only eat one-third. Its pasta was over-cooked so mushy. Its two rectangular "rolls" were obviously their "dough" so also flavorless. Caesar Salad dressing was way too thick so way too "heavy." Within two hours I was in the bathroom then took Pepto. Review: Too bland, too flavorless, too expensive. Can't remember when I left so much food on a HUGE plate for a $40 bill plus tip. So no, I will not be going back.

got a combo meal which came with 10 boneless wings, fries, ranch, and a drink (i chose diet pepsi)…read morenormally, I wouldn't get fries here, but as part of the deal I didn't mind it Since they were a limited time, I decided to try the honey sriracha wings the size of the wings were pretty decent - didn't feel like any of them were smaller than they should be the breading was a little disappointing - there wasn't much crunch to it - probably due to the fact that the wings were tossed in the sauce rather than a dry rub, but i still did expect a little bit more breadiness than what i got i did appreciate the different bumps on the breading, though the inside of the wings wasn't overcooked either as far as the sauce, i wasn't quite sure what to make of it there was some sweetness but not much, and the sriracha flavor was essentially missing as this was not spicy in any way despite being a lot of sauce, it didn't really have any strong flavors The Maple Sriracha and Hot Honey flavors at Wingstop do a similar sauce significantly better, in my opinion The fries were about average - they weren't crunchy, but at least were somewhat soft inside. not much seasoning the carrots were wayy too soft the ranch was also fine but not great - again, Wingstop does the ranch a lot better I will say this was a pretty great deal for the price, as the overall meal is quite filling for what comes out to only around 14 dollars

It's been at least 10 years since I've visited Bull & Bones. This establishment opened in 2008 in a…read morenew shopping center that highlighted Blacksburg's growth. I remember my visit was a special one as it was busy, yet the service and food were impeccable. Bull & Bones put their best foot forward that night and I left Blacksburg thinking that B&B was one reliable dining spot. Neal & I returned on 11/15/25 to check out Tech's football game at Florida State (our hotel wasn't televising the game). We were in town to check out VT v. Charlotte - a basketball game that featured some promising young talent for the Hokies. Of course, I arrived at B&B with high hopes since my previous experience was a memorable one. Unfortunately, my latest visit wasn't quite as good. The evening began well enough - there were plenty of available seats at the bar and we were greeted almost immediately. Our server was nice and pleasant, and returned with our drink orders promptly. We took a few minutes to look over the menu and we were able to order without issue. We weren't in a rush, and the vibe was fairly chill. I didn't expect top tier service, but there were stretches in which an employee couldn't be located in order to get continued service. For example, our server was cut (yet no one informed us) - we didn't see her after she took our dinner orders. I looked around constantly to ask for another round of drinks, but she wasn't around. While waiting for our entrees, what appeared to be the manager on duty stopped by to tell us that our entrees may take a while because our ticket was sent to the kitchen right behind a 40-top's order. He was apologetic, but we were cool with it because of the game. Surprisingly, our food arrived less than 10 minutes after the manager's table visit - we probably wouldn't have noticed anything was wrong if he hadn't said anything. I appreciated the transparency, though. I saw it as one of the evening's highlights. After the food arrived, it was a constant struggle to find any available server (as a reminder, no one told us she was cut). Refills and/or more rounds of drinks were held to a minimum. That irked me - it got to the point where I went to bar whenever I needed something (I wouldn't have minded doing that during the visit, but they set the expectation by providing table service - meaning I want table service for the duration). Neal ordered wings, while I decided to go big with a ribeye. Neal devoured his entree but I wasn't happy with mine. I ordered the ribeye rare - it came out nearly well-done. My entree came with two sides - I ordered sweet potato fries and rice. The sweet potato fries were overcooked and burnt. I tried one fry and one fry only because it was charred and inedible. The rice wasn't much better as it was cold and mushy. Since a garlic parm fries appetizer was already at our table, I loaded up on that since they were pretty good. The steak was passable since it wasn't completely dry, so I ate about half of that before I became full. So, B&B was a miss, imo, this time around. It would be easy to dismiss this as things going haywire during a busy Saturday night dinner service but, outside of the 40-top, they were empty. So, this visit felt like B&B's quality has gone downhill. I hope this isn't the norm for B&B because they honestly are a good place. But after time, some businesses lose their focus, and it felt like B&B reached that stage. Hopefully they can re-evaluate, reinvent, refocus and improve, but if their food quality continues to suffer, they won't last. Thank you, Bull & Bones. JV
