Stella’s always delivers a welcoming high level of service and attention to detail. A 35th Wedding anniversary dinner should be extra special and that’s what ours became. Great service and incredible bread and pasta. Just right, memorable and lasting. More

OpenTable Diner -
Good time overall. We like coming here for a date night. But definitely felt price gouged for Valentines Day. Normally we can share and appetizer, then two entrees, and a dessert each. Plus a bottle of wine and stay right around $100. But for both of us on Valentines ran about $166 before tip. So may find a different spot for Valentines, but overall we like coming here. More

The atmosphere was pretty cool. The restaurant was clean and in a great location. The food was pretty generic and didn't stand out taste wise. The staff was polite but because it's so busy there it's a rushed vibe. More

OpenTable Diner -
Great food. Ambience was good too. Noise level was better than earlier times when I dined there because it was not full to the rafters. That was probably because it was a Monday night! More

Had a great birthday meal with 3 friends. We shared 3 appetizers, a salad, a main course and 2 desserts. All were excellent!

Food was great, but took a bit longer than expected for the number of people present. More
OpenTable Diner -
Everything we ate was crafted with such care that our meal was a taste sensation. The chefs know how to meld the flavors of the south to perfection. I can’t recommend this place enough. Oysters included a tasty variety that lived up to the salt box name if you are a fan of brine, which I am. Lots of VA choices too, so you don’t have to go with briny if you don’t want to. Their hot sauce needs to be bottled and sold it’s that amazing. The manager says they are working on it thanks to high demand. More
OpenTable Diner -

We went for Valentine’s Day dinner and made reservations through Open Table. We were not made aware by Open Table that there was a Prix Fox special menu at $55 per person that day. We had actually picked the place based on the regular dinner menu and prices and thought it would be a moderately priced date. After dinner and drinks, our bill was $160 for two people, considering we had one drink each. The service, food and ambiance was excellent though and would definitely go again and dine out of the regular menu. More

great ambiance and out waitress was outstanding. Food was great. A couple of little things. The anchovies were left off our caesar salad and they ran out of the Brussels sprouts that went with my spare ribs and it was only about 6:30. They were very busy so no big deal. We will definitely return. More

Shula's is an experience in and of itself. Very good food and service. They make you feel like you are the most important people there. It is our second time reading there. The first time was mothers day with 2 of us and our 5 kids 17 to 12 and it was so delicious and impressive. My wife has wanted to come back since then. This experience was just as good. Just the two of us Valentines Day and the brought her a rose (what about me j/k) and champagne to sip while we were eating our appetizers. Awesome! More

One of the best experiences I’ve ever had at a restaurant! I had a reservation and they recommended a table to accommodate the occasion.

First time visiting Cobblestone Bistro inside The Berkley Hotel. Everything was great! They had a Valentines Day menu which consisted of 4 courses, and they gave each lady a rose. I thought this was a special touch. Our waiter was Will and he was fantastic. The chef even came out to ask was everyone enjoying their meal and to thank everyone for coming. Our meal here made our Valentines Day a great memory. More

Our waiter treated us like royalty ! He could have been a butler in the castle! He called us ladies,, not hey guys.. he said 'You're welcome" when he thanked him.. not "no problem" Ugh , I hate that.. The food was very very good, and fresh! Waters were on table, and refilled when necessary. I got home made potato chips with my meal,, which were kinda different, not real tasty. The salmon quiche was fabulous ! The desserts were also fabulous! I loved that the prices were all the same.. no matter what you got. It 's a very elegant place ! More

My girlfriend and I enjoyed a delightful Valentine's Day dinner at Belle. Everything was amazing - We were immediately greeted and then seated; the waitress was amazingly attentive without being annoying; the food was delicious and cooked to order; and, the price of the meal was not over the top. We both ordered from the prix fixe menu and that included a complimentary bottle of champagne. This was not my first meal at Belle and it certainly will not be my last! More

We went for Valentine's celebration. We were seated on time and received immediate service. The host was very courteous and helpful with answering our questions about the menu. The meal was delicious from appetizer to entrees to dessert. The food came out in a timely fashion, hot and plentiful. One could tell this is authentic Indian food done exceptionally well with recipes perfected over the years. This place will become a go to place for us. I have already recommended it to two friends. There was plenty of room in our seating for quiet conversation. I look forward to returning again soon for another excellent meal. More
