My only complaints which are very minimal -- #1: there was fresh squeezed OJ listed on the menu but is no longer served and I'm a sucker for fresh squeezed so it immediately grabbed my attention; and #2: I wish I'd known I could do half grits and potatoes - I should've asked, but I overheard a local/regular customer ask for that after I'd already gotten my plate of food in front of me. But 100% satisfied with the grits, so no complaints with what I ordered and ate, just would've liked to try the potatoes, too!

Outstanding From Start to Finish 185 Restaurant absolutely…read moredeserves its 2026 Coastal Virginia Magazine Gold Awards for Best Breakfast, Best Brunch, and Best Comfort Food. I ordered the Hangover Plate, and it was exceptional. The homemade sausage gravy over a fresh biscuit, topped with eggs, cheese, and bacon, was rich, flavorful, and comforting without being overly heavy. The seasoned home fries were perfectly cooked and complemented the meal well. We also tried the 185 Cheeseburger, and it was equally impressive. The burger was juicy, cooked exactly right, served on a fresh brioche bun, and topped with fresh ingredients and a delicious smoky mayo. The service was friendly and attentive, the food arrived hot, and the portions were generous. You can tell the staff takes pride in both the quality of the food and the overall dining experience. It's easy to see why this restaurant continues to win local awards. If you're anywhere near Yorktown or Newport News, 185 Restaurant is absolutely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back! Highly recommended.

I have nothing but great things to say about The Bee and the Biscuit. I heard how great this place…read morewas so I had to try it for myself. My boyfriend and I arrived here on a Friday around 10 and they have valet which we absolutely loved because the parking lot can be tricky. So all you have to do is pull up behind the restaurant and they will park your car. We were expecting a huge wait time, originally they told us 45 minutes and we ended up only waiting 25 minutes. That time flew by, while you wait they have a small bar outside to enjoy and they have the cutest little gift shop. While we waited the worker inside the gift shop was the sweetest and she gave us some backstory about the Bee and the Biscuit. After 25 minutes we sat down. We didn't know what to order since everything sounded great but I got the Steak and Eggs Griddle (Medium Rare) and my partner got the Cowboy Benedict. Both were so delicious, please beware you will most likely not finish your food. They give great portions. I can't wait to come back to try more of there entrees it was truly an amazing place.

If you are staying at the beach, this will be a little bit of a drive. It is in a very tony area,…read moreand the parking is facilitated via valet. You will require this, as well as the outdoor bar and large outdoor seating area, because it is likely that you will be waiting before you have the opportunity to be seated and take advantage of the food offerings. With the parking out-of-the-way, and your expectation that you will be waiting about the length of a feature film behind you during busy periods, let's get to the food. There is a straightforward charm, and there are biscuits, but the value add really isn't there for the amount of time investment and at the price point. Service is workmanlike and pleasant, seating is tight as you might imagine. To be fair, there is some creativity in the dish naming and drink presentation. Taken on its own merits, I would rate it as a three out of five. This is the sort of place that generates a lot of attention and buzz because of its location in an affluent area and because of word of mouth. But the fare is not of such a spectacular quality that the peak hour waits justify.

I can not believe I have not reviewed Food Craft. It is a very popular spot for the local area. I…read moreoften see the parking lot full and there is line outside the door or others standing around. I can understand why, the menu is decent and the food and service is great. This is the brunch place to be. When you walk in , it is pretty open. There is tables throughout and it is fairly clean. We were seated quickly. Our waitress was fantastic at my recent visit. I was there with my friend and a teen who is special needs. Our waitress was very engaging with them and took her time with them. I was so happy about that. Our food was amazing. My husband was with me once and he had the scotch eggs and said they were some of the best he has had. My food has always come out piping hot. I enjoy my blueberry pancakes. I like that you can get one plain and one blueberry. The blueberries on my pancake were spaced out well. There is a nice large lot to park in. There are various other businesses around food craft that share that lot.

Do yourself a favor and avoid this place. This was my second time here. The first was trash but…read moreeveryone has an off day so I gave them another chance. Nope. Food came out ice cold. I'm not exaggerating. It came out super quick too so they have to be making it ahead and just letting it sit. I had country fried steak, eggs over medium, toast and home fries and a side of bacon. The home fries and steak were lukewarm, the eggs were literally cold like they sat in the refrigerator, the bacon was also damned close to being that cold. The toast was cold as can be, barely toasted, no butter, not cut. I mentioned it to the waitress and she said there is butter on the table. That's it. She really seemed like it was a bother to have to serve customers at all. Maybe I'm just unlucky, but I don't know how this place has any positive reviews at all. I sent my entire meal back but still paid for coffee and the side of bacon (and my sons' meals of waffles and French toast). I didn't want mine remade. Still cost me nearly 50 dollars for this trash, and no offer to make it right other than removing exactly what I sent back. My other and more serious concern is food safety. IF they ARE cooking this ahead and storing it in a way that leaves it cold or room temp, bacteria is a big concern. I'm typing this from the toilet and my stomach is going through it right now. From a few bites of cold food? Maybe.

Great place! Great vibe!…read more We came right after what should have been the morning breakfast rush but while it was still moderately busy... everything was clean and tidy. Our server ( whose name on the ticket was Cheyenne, Go Cowboys! ) was cheerful and attentive. She made fresh coffee for Wife Unit with a casual charm that barely hid her hustle. Young lady was on top of things! Wife Unit had the Big Chuck breakfast and I got the Greek Breakfast bowl and a half order of biscuits and gravy. Wife Unit said hers was "Yummy!", I said mine was something just as positive but more masculine. The Greek Bowl had a lot of unusual textures and flavors for a breakfast meal but it was great. We will definitely come back to scratch that breakfast/brunch itch.... Maybe even try the lunch menu.

The menu tells you exactly what you're getting and that's exactly what comes out and they execute it very well. Good portions, great prices, greater food.

They also have one side of the building designated for take out. I really enjoyed my time here and loved that the waitress offered me a coffee to go as I paid the check.
