A Perfect Night at The Boathouse at City Point I had the most incredible experience at this restaurant! On February 14, 2025, I got engaged to my best friend—one of the happiest moments of my life, second only to becoming a mother. I was completely overjoyed and surprised! The food and service were absolutely excellent, making the night even more special. Despite living in the area for a year, this was my first visit to The Boathouse at City Point, and I’m so glad he chose this restaurant for such a memorable occasion. I couldn’t have asked for a better setting to celebrate such a beautiful moment. Highly recommend!

Blue Jay is consistent. A very nice dining experience and the food is excellent. Customer service is great and atmosphere very nice

This historic hotel in Petersburg, VA has been lovingly restored. Shirley’s offers a delicious dining experience from craft cocktails to 7 layer coconut cake. The three of us very much enjoyed every bite. Great service. Classic old school hotel atmosphere complete with basement speakeasy, The Boiler Room. Reasonable prices. Guaranteed return. Well done!

We are locals. This was our 1st time back since new owners. The service was great, our waiter was personable, his name was John. Ask for him. The menu offered us things we liked. I chose salmon and my husband chose Smash burgers. The sweet potato and brussel sprouts combination was delicious, highly recommend. We like how they no longer offer tastings but sell flights, it is more profitable for them. Overall a nice afternoon.

I’ve had another location before, but I was really excited about eating here being that it’s now so close to home. The food was overall good, it met my expectations. However our waitress needed more training. She was very forgetful/clueless. There were also some discrepancies with the menu and pricing. Be sure to review your checks before leaving because they will slap items on your bill that you didn’t receive!! I would rate this location 7/10
