Restaurants near John Wareing Monument

Christmas Day Delight with my sons: Orion's Roof is a beautiful rooftop restaurant nicely decorated for the holidays with gorgeous views of the ocean. Our server Dustin was friendly, helpful, and highly attentive. Our drinks, appetizers, and entrees arrived in perfect timing. His recommendations were highly accurate. The food ranks among the highest we have ever enjoyed. One of my sons said the food rivaled the Michelin 2-star restaurant he ate at in Argentina last week! We had the duck, Singapore noodles, prime rib, and an Asian alfredo type dish. All were impeccably prepared to perfection. The food melted in our mouths. The overall ambiance was so pleasant, and the manager had a good presence checking in as we arrived and left. While it is more than we usually spend, it was worth the extra money to have an incredibly high level of culinary ability and the superior waitstaff of Dustin.

Just wanted to mention... I ordered a hamburger and it was cooked perfectly. My thank you and complements to the chef. I had a great Christmas brunch at Becca. Overall it was a good experience from the valet parking, getting seated, the waiter was excellent and the young lady that smiled at me on her way to clean the table. Thank You

We visited The Hunt Room in Virginia Beach, a few days before Christmas, and it was an absolutely incredible experience. The ambiance is cozy and elegant, with the holiday spirit adding an extra layer of charm. Sitting by the fire made the evening feel even more special. The food was exceptional, with every dish crafted to perfection. The drinks were just as impressive—both the espresso martini and the smoked old fashioned are must-tries! They were expertly prepared and perfectly complemented the warm, inviting atmosphere. The Hunt Room is the ideal spot for a memorable night out, whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a place to unwind. We’ll definitely be back!

Our reservation was for 6:15; however, our event prior ended early and we showed up about 45 mins early. Aldo’s was happy to accommodate our party. Vinny was our server, and we had a wonderful evening! Thank you, Aldos is one of our favorite go tos, and we appreciate the quality, the longevity, and the wonderful atmosphere. It made our evening fantastic and memorable!

When we arrived, our table was ready, and the server came over quickly. Server was professional and friendly, but left us alone enough to talk. Water glasses were kept full and food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Everything was delicious.
