    We visited for my Mom’s Birthday and had a really great time. Atmosphere was nice and relaxing. Great food! Prime Rib, Filet and Scallops were delicious. Great wine, Pinot Grios from Italy. Great wait staff! (Can’t remember his name) He brought out the Chocolate Flourless Cake with a candle, It made her night. We will definitely be back.

    Aberdeen Barn in Charlottesville truly delivers an exceptional dining experience. From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a fantastic meal. The food was nothing short of incredible—the steak, aged to absolute perfection, was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The generous servings made it clear that they prioritize both quality and quantity. The service was stellar, with attentive and friendly staff who made me feel like part of the family. Their professionalism and genuine hospitality added to the overall enjoyment of the evening. It’s rare to find a restaurant that excels in both food and service, but Aberdeen Barn does just that. I wholeheartedly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an unforgettable meal, and I will definitely be back!
