Me and my husband were driving through Virginia on our cross country road trip. And when we passed…read moreby this little town called Luray, we thought it was very cute with a surprising amount of charm to it but very original in its vintage setting. But when we passed this restaurant it stood out from the rest of the town we had to pull over to stop in! From the front porch to the backyard and everything in between we could see it was inspired by Virginia's alluring nature. From the nature sounds in the bathroom to the monstera leaf themed wallpaper it very much had its own significant charm! We were honored by a visit from the owner (Tony), the chef(Mat) and even the head leader (Jennifer) they are a GREAT TEAM! We could tell talking to them they all felt passionate about what they do. I even noticed the owner looking at the POS system going through every table to make sure he had personally thanked everyone for coming in. Me and my husband got the course for 2 but added on the pork belly. The course included a salad for each of us and a main course but had to share a dessert. Which I found to be the only disappointment considering the price and no note saying it was a shared dessert in the menu. We each had 3 cocktails and a glass of wine. My husband said his first drink was probably one of the best drinks he's ever had and we have lived all over the US. The courses were timed perfect for us. However we wanted fresh silverware to eat our dessert and we waited almost 10mins for them. Our sever was very nice and attentive even our glasses were never emptied thanks to all the other helping staff!

They managed to make it work for us, which was really amazing on their end. I think they were getting close to closing time too (maybe about 45 minutes) and they still made it work. The staff were absolutely amazing and I have no complaints whatsoever. The food was good. The only complaint I have is that the Eggs Bennys only came with one egg? I used to brunch so much in NYC and I don't think I've ever been hit with a one Benny plate - and definitely not at the prices they were charging here. I almost wished they would charge a little more and give me two!

You really get to enjoy an immersive, interactive experience on the farm. There is something for everyone, from interactive gardens and live animals. The best for a cute little DIY wine tasting. You can bring your own charcuterie platters, which is what we did to go along with our tastings. They have tasting room called the Purple Wolf Vineyard where you can purchase your portable tastings, wine, beer and slushy flights . I would definitely return again, great place to host a cute birthday event, with your friends. They also have a really nice gift shop as well.

We started with the bread assortment, which included flatbreads, rolls, dipping sauces, and butter. We also tried the fried artichoke leaves--they were perfectly crisp, tender, and delicious.

I had just come from a hair appointment down the street and on my way back to my car, I noticed Sangria advertised on the mini sandwich board outside. I'm a HUGE fan of a glass of fruity Sangria on a hot day! The fact that it was Happy Hour with $5 glasses made it even easier to draw me inside!! When I explained this was my first visit, they explained the Curio concept, the various areas for sitting, sipping and gathering as well as the Curio Card process. They even had a small but really intriguing menu of various snacks, from charcuterie to flatbread and even dessert. The menu changes a couple times a month, making me want to plan more visits! The staff offered me sips of each so I could decide on a Sangria flavor. Despite not being a Moscato fan, I chose the Moscato Mule Sangria. It was light, refreshing and had the Moscow Mule flavors with the added sweetness of Moscato wine. I wandered into the cellar to explore more wine offerings and wound up running into fellow educators and their friends I had never met. We chatted like we were catching up and laughed about shared birthdays and teaching!! They invited me to hang with them, but I had to get home for Dog Mom Duty. We exchanged numbers so we could plan another "run-in" downtown SOON! If you haven't visited Curio, I HIGHLY recommend it. Bring a friend, or plan on making a few. Next time, I'll be ordering food with my wine and lingering much longer! Thanks for a great end to my week. See y'all soon! Cheers!

Finally, our drinks were taken by the bar tender and before we could get them we were seated. The drinks were never put in or she just flat ignored us. (We both saw her write the order down.) Our server finally had to re order them, we had now been there 22 minutes with no cocktails. Absurd. Anyway, our server Jerrod was great but everything else was subpar. I've made better scallops in my sleep and the presentation was an absolute train wreck, looked like it had been thrown on the floor and then scooped back up. The charcuterie plate was decent and the locally sourced cheeses were great, especially that Brie. But this place is overrated, at best. I can't recommend it for the price. Pretentious, overpriced and quite boring, not to mention unprofessional.

There are so many options in this lovely town but I made a reservation at Zynodoa because I have been on a farm-to-table kick lately. The servers and hosts were all lovely, interacting with both the guests and each other professionally and amicably. My server Sarah gave me as much attention as anyone else, even though I was the only person dining alone. I ordered the tomato and burrata appetizer. I am not a big raw tomato eater but I knew if these were truly farm-to-table, they would taste good, and they did. The flavor felt like a combination of sunshine and a warm hug! The cheese tasted like a sweet kiss. The portion was substantial, and there was balsamic reduction and a generous amount of coarse pesto. I ate the whole thing! For the main course I ordered the flat iron steak. Because I was traveling and didn't want leftovers, I asked the server for a smaller portion than listed, but either I wasn't clear or it wasn't an option--It's okay, though. I ordered the steak medium rare but it was a shade above rare; again, okay. Sides were good but I added salt. The meal was a bit pricey but probably fair given that it was sourced locally. I agree with some of the other reviewers that the chef is heavy handed on the sauces, which may not be everyone's cup of tea. Oh, I ordered the pinot noir and it was good, smooth, balanced. Overall impression of Zynodoa was it felt like visiting the home of a friend with a garden who loves to cook and share with her friends. The portions were generous and the seasoning was substantial. I highly recommend to anyone visiting Staunton.
