Restaurants near Sussex Count Courthouse Historic District

When I think of Carytown the first place that comes to mind is Can Can Brasserie. And like fine wine, it’s gotten better with age. From arrival to check we were made to feel like VIP. The drinks top tier, an extensive champagne list including vintages from 2000 and beyond. Even when ordering bread the food is always plated beautifully and creates an atmosphere all on its own. For brunch do the Quiche Du Jour and French Toast. And for Dinner you have to do the Scallops. Non-negotiable on that. They are life changing.

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!

A truly delightful Valentine's Day dinner: > The lobster/steak entre was excellent, prepared exactly as we requested, and the wine recommendations were perfect pairings. >We were delighted with our server Omar, who was both very professional and delightfully personable -- a wonderful combination. > The ambiance added enormously to our enjoyment: the decorations, including appropriate lighting, "flower petals" on the tables and festive balloons around the dining rooms - and the placement of the tables -- which was uncrowded, but near enough to others that by then end of the evening, wonderful conversations were had among people (previously strangers to each other) sitting at tables nearby one another.

Fantastic service and food as always! Tried a little of everything and left very satisfied on Valentines Day!

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!
