The Most Scrumptious Salad in Virginia Beach

Pelon's Baja Grill

★★★★☆ 3.9 (864) • $$

"VIRGINIA BEACH | Pelon's Oceanfront is hugely popular. You stand to order and most everything has a vegan option including fish tacos. Pick a seat and wait for your order. We started with chips and salsa because we had a long drive and if the kids didn't have something we would have lost it and had a moment. I had the vegan carne asada tacos with the red sauce, S had the Unemployed Surfer which is a bean and cheese burrito with red sauce. The kids had a vegan quesadilla. All was decent. I would probably opt for the burrito next time as the tacos were a little dry. The quesadilla was very cheesy! It lost points for me because it was very hot, not good ventilation, and our table wasn't cleaned before we sat down."

IL Giardino Ristorante

★★★★☆ 4.1 (670) • $$$

"My husband and I have been coming to this friendly place since we were teenagers. The atmosphere is beautiful, makes you feel like you're dining in Italy. The food is out of this world with huge portions. It tastes so authentic & worth every penny. My husband & I usually split the tortellini & add shrimp & chicken to it."

Food Craft

★★★★☆ 3.9 (501) • $$

"Went here for the first time recently and enjoyed myself thoroughly! Our service was prompt, kind, and efficient. The inside was busy so we decided to sit outside instead of indoors. Music was good and enjoyable as well during brunch time! I ordered the (2) Blueberry Pancake Plate w/ over easy eggs & sausage & a side dish of Hash brown casserole. My boyfriend got a grilled chicken BLT with fries. Both were delicious! Excellent portions, especially for the price. We will definitely be returning!"

Mr. Gyros & Burgers

★★★★★ 4.6 (278) • $

"This is a unique fast food experience with indoor seating and a drive thru that serves greek and American foods in their menu. We ordered two greek bowls with greek fries and it did not disappoint. For one, the drive through experience was very pleasant, with a very kind and upbeat lady taking orders which is a rarity in most fast food drive throughs. The fries we got were fresh and piping hot, and had a good crunch to them. I highly recommend this place for a quick bite to eat!"

The Bagel Baker

★★★★☆ 4.2 (304) • $

"I enjoyed a sausage, egg, and cheese with vegetable schmear, lettuce, and tomato at The Bagel Baker. The bagel was chewy and fresh, reminiscent of a New York bodega, and very well seasoned and salted. The sausage was excellent, and the schmear was flavorful. Offering a casual diner-style interior with plenty of seating; tables quickly turnover for a fast bite. Just like in New York, you need to be prepared to order (this is not the type of place where you chat with the host)."

Racha Thai Cuisine

★★★★☆ 4.2 (234) • $$

"Beautiful traditional Thai restaurant. Prices were good and food was decent. We ordered fresh spring rolls with shrimp, pad see ew with beef and red curry with tofu. The spring rolls were delicious and the dipping sauce was excellent. Lunch came with a small side salad and a fried spring roll. That was basic but also pretty good. The pad see ew noodles were overcooked and a little gelatinous but still tasted good. The red curry was a little overly salty but still flavor was nice and the tofu was perfectly lightly fried. There is a lot of good Thai food in the area. I would come back but this wouldn't be my first choice."

Philly Style Steaks & Subs

★★★★☆ 4.4 (208) • $$

"We had 5 orders placed for my coworkers and I. The lady on the the phone was pleasant and respectful. She said it would be a 25m wait. When I arrived, there was a long line of people waiting as well as people enjoying their food. By the time I got to the front, my order was already done. All of my coworkers were very content with their Philly cheesesteak. I, on the other hand, had the chicken cheesesteak with sweet peppers and onions (12"). It was extremely flavorful and so juicy that the oil seeped through the paper lol. Putting it in the toaster oven for later tonight. Great eats for sure!"

Oishi Sushi

★★★★☆ 4.3 (202) • $$

"Oishi was a great place to grab lunch! They had a wide variety of lunch specials at an affordable price, which made it the perfect spot for a lunch date with my boyfriend. I really enjoyed my Pork Katsu Box. It included Half California Roll, House Salad, Miso Soup, and Vegetable Spring Roll in addition to the Katsu. Took off a star because there was a bug in our soy sauce and the smell had a slightly stronger fishy smell than other sushi restaurants, but overall the food and service was great :)"

O’ Yummy Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.9 (219) • $$

"Excellent price for all you can eat sushi! The quality well surpasses what you might expect fromAn AYCE. When it comes to sushi, the quality is really the most important factor, is t it? O'Yummy on great neck has high quality, nicely sized rolls, sushi, and sashimi! The Crystal Roll is one of my favorites! They lose one star for long gals between visits from the server."

"The wings are the best I've ever eaten. Staff was nice and attentive. Clean place."

Grande Burrito Grill

★★★★☆ 4.4 (138) • $$

"Awesome, prompt service. Chuy was great! Delicious food. Well priced tacos for taco Tuesday! We loved the ambiance. Little mom and pop style Mexican restaurant at the Thalia Shoppes strip mall. Cute ambiance. We will definitely be back! The Taco Tuesday specials were amazing!"

Tad's Deli

★★★★☆ 4.4 (106) • $

"So, so good. Super fresh meat, bread is soft and service is friendly and fast. I had the cold turkey sandwich and husband had egg salad, both were fabulous. The menu is full of options, both hot and cold. Plenty of seating if you want to stay and eat. We will be back!!"

TASTE

★★★★☆ 3.9 (124) • $$

"Here on orders again after a year in Africa. Saw this place as I was passing by and figured I could go for a sandwich. Man, was that a good choice!I had the Virginian. It was ciabatta bread with prosciutto, turkey, ham, provolone, romaine, tomato, banana peppers, and balsamic vinaigrette. Absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend Taste if you're looking for a quick bit to eat or want a sandwich or salad. It really is a great little place."

Super Chix - Chesapeake

★★★★☆ 4.2 (104) • $$

"Came here on Tuesday (01/21/25) for lunch with my sister as she kept raving how good it was and we were both off for the day so off we went.It was pretty empty when we arrived around 12ish I think, we needed a few minutes to decide or should I say I needed a few minutes.I was debating between their Buffalo Ranch or their featured sandwich the Super Parm. I went with the Super Parm as it is a limited time only and figured I could get the other one next time.We sat by the sauce bar and as we waited for our food, I got the following sauces to try: Nashville Hot, Buffalo, Korean BBQ and Buttermilk Ranch. My sister had the Honey Mustard and Signature sauces. Loved the ranch and buffalo and Korean BBQ, the Nashville Hot was different but still enjoyed.Next came our sandwiches, I also got a regular side of fried pickles as well. Man that sandwich was huge or should I say the chicken it self was huge!I dont know what I was expecting but that sandwich was so good and the chicken filet was so tender and went so well with the melted provolone cheese and marinara. I thoroughly enjoyed this and the fried pickles were fried to perfection and oh so good.My sister enjoyed her Bacavo ranch sandwich she says its her favorite and she had their fries, I normally not a fresh cut fry fan but these were really good and had a nice slight crispy and not soggy at all.The workers came around and asked if we were ok and if we needed anything and the place got busy for the lunch time rush while we were there. I definitely want to come back and try the buffalo ranch!"

La Herradura

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (158) • $$

"It's been likely over 7 years since my last visit to La Herradura VB. I use to be a regular. They do have a Norfolk location that the owners son runs. My wife and I decided on a Friday Mexcan dinner during happy hour. We were greeted with smiles at the door by the hostess and owner. We were seated at a booth with menus, chips and salsa. Also drink orders were taken. Of course a margarita was in order to celebrate Friday. It was dashed out and super yummy! The dining room was over half full around 630. The bar that seats around 8-10 was oddly empty. Everything seemed clean. In short order our friendly waitress brought my 24oz Margarita on the rocks with salted rim arrived and was super! I ordered a buritto deluxe with side of rice. My wife chicken enchilada. The food hit the table within 15 minutes and was HOT! Everything looked great! My wife and i really enjoyed our meals. Our waitress was strong and checked on us a few times. As well the owner checked in. This was a pleasant surprise. I suspect new owners since my last visit. Solid 4 and will return."

Lago Mar Pizza

★★★★☆ 3.7 (133) • $$

"Finally! I've tried Lago Mar Pizza! It only took me like 9 years to try this place 5 minutes from my house. We ordered ahead for delivery two hours later and it was pretty much on time - super warm and fresh and very very good. We chose a loaded specialty pizza that came with everything and made our own white pizza with ricotta, mozzarella, basil and sausage. I loved the crust - it's thick and delicious. Online ordering and payment was so easy. Will absolutely order from here again!"

Sal's Pizzeria

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (151) • $$

"This is hands down the best pizza on my area (lynnhaven salem area).I admit I used to be a Bella customer at Salem crossing but they changed some things up and I had to move on. I discovered Sal'z and I absolutely love it. Pizza is awesome! If you like a traditional NY pizza. This is it! Oh and the staff is amazing! Check em out"

Si Senor

★★★★☆ 4.3 (83) • $$

"My son and I fled the terrible food at Busch Gardens amusement park and we stopped here. I am from Texas and I often complain about the mexican food on the east coast. Not this place, though. It was well done. Did not disappoint. My son said, "we should leave a good review on Yelp." I know he was hungry, but that is an indicator that this place deserves the praise."

Dino's Pizza Shop

★★★★☆ 3.9 (93) • $$

"Great food, great service. Old school pizza and sandwich shop vibe. I drive 45 minutes one way to dine here, it's that good."

Moyock Pizza Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.9 (82) • $$

"I came here with my mom, hubby, and son for dinner on a Saturday evening. The lady at the counter was super friendly and helpful. After telling her this was our first time, she gave us a menu and told us to sit down and just come up when we were ready. We ordered a cauliflower Hawaiian pizza, pepperoni and mushroom pizza, and a small pepperoni pizza. I ordered a mushroom and sausage calzone. My calzone was delicious! Oh, we also ordered garlic knots and these were the best. It was soaked in garlic butter and garlic and just made our mouths happy. We also ordered a small Greek salad and a small chef salad. It was just okay. I'm very impressed with this restaurant! We definitely will be back!Also, I received a 10% coupon when I checked in on Yelp. Great service. Very clean."

Andy Boys Pizza

★★★★☆ 4.4 (59) • $$

"Some of the best pizza around, fair price , great service, clean location. Let's support this small business."

Ettrick Deli

★★★★☆ 4.4 (59) • $

"Delicious and affordable. Portions are big! I love the onion rings. The fried fish sandwich is amazing, few bones left in but it was still good. Their bbq is good if you like the vinegar based kind- I don't but for that kind it's good. It gets very busy around lunch but you can always call in and they deliver. Staff is always very friendly as well!For a cheap fried food, burger place, its great. I am not a fan of their wraps though but I would still come back if I have a southern sandwich craving."

Mom And Son Thai Kitchen

★★★★★ 4.8 (46)

"This was probably the best surprise for the Norfolk/VB/Portsmouth area! I moved here back in July 22' from San Diego. As you can imagine, the restaurant scene here isn't quite as bustling. This place got my vote from bite one!I ordered delivery so can't speak to the restaurant itself, but from what I see online it looks like a very small place and probably more conducive on to go orders. That shouldn't deter you. The best Thai joint in San Diego in the heart of Uni Heights had only two tables and a long down the street with a cult following!I ordered the spring rolls, pad Thai & Krapow Kai Dow. I'll open with this, I do think the family might be from Laos or pull some of their flavor profiles in that direction. What does this mean: what you might think of for pad Thai might be different here. Trust me, it's for the better! Their pad Thai leaned more savory than tangy like a lot of joints tend to make their pad Thai. I actually grew up having a similar pad Thai in Florida so it was quite nostalgic for me.Spring rolls were super tasty, fresh fried, not greasy and clearly home made. If you've ever had real fresh & homemade fried spring rolls THIS IS IT! The Krapow was super delicious, strong flavors of the fresh basil. Ground pork was perfectly done (e.g. very finely ground with no inconsistency). The only thing I was sad about wasn't their fault, it's actually mine. The fried egg unfortunately cooked all the way through. Not their fault: delivery in sealed package + drive time = fully cooked egg. This one might be an eat in house item if it tickles your fancy.I definitely look forward to trying out more of their menu in the future, maybe pay a trip in person. If you're on the fence and are sick of the 1 of 12 restaurants all with the same name owned by different people (you know the ones)... give this quaint eatery a try!"

Serve Restaurant & Taphouse

★★★★☆ 4.4 (49)

"We were pleasantly surprised on our first encounter of this establishment. If you're looking for a lazy Saturday morning brunch (and Fred's is closing at 11am), then look no further. -Try their mimosa flight--it is delicious and only $10. Why not?!-They were out of the crab dip, so we will be trying it next time we come and order garlic knots. But... the beer cheese was EXCELLENT. Normally we run into the dilemma of running out of dip before we run out of a given dippable item. In this case, we were met with a very generous serving that complimented said garlic knots very well. -Fried cheese curds and hush puppies were perfect. -I'd only recommend using kalamata olives (instead of black) in the Mediterranean Salad, even if it means raising the price to accommodate that. Otherwise, I loved that they used a spring mix, which is more nutritious, and it was delicious and pleasing to the eyes. -We were full before we got to our patty melt (with an egg) and packed it up to go--and it was very satisfying hours later after a slight nuke in the microwave. We must've suffered from RBF because the owner asked if we were unhappy with our food since we were taking so much of it home for later. Thank you for being so attentive to your customers!"

Super Chix - Williamsburg

★★★★☆ 3.7 (66)

"After attending a Yelp event days prior, I thought it would be great to come back for a full meal with Sophia by my side. The weather was great for Sunday and we drove here after catching a movie. Question is would this be a legit experience or one where I would leave scratching my head in bewilderment?We were greeted by one of the employees when we walked to the counter. From there, you place your order either as dine-in or takeout. I ordered the Cordon Bleu chicken sandwich with a side of fries with Cajun seasoning and also a Reese Pieces cold fusion dessert. Everything was pretty good. The chicken sandwich had plenty working together. Hand breaded chicken, ham, honey mustard and Swiss cheese....good enough for me. The fries were well done with a good amount of Cajun seasoning to keep your taste buds afloat. I also had Nashville Hot, Korean BBQ and Honey Mustard dipping sauce for the fries. And the cold fusion dessert had a whole lot of Reeses Pieces mixed with their custard...say no more. Sophia ordered the Bacavo Ranch sandwich and gave it thumbs up on her end.Definitely not a bad meal for both of us. The drive was worth it and the vibe was pretty calm with music going and TVs full of sporting events to keep you interested. Can't ask for anything else. We will be back the next time we're in the area. Till next time :)"

"This place is a hidden gem in Virginia Beach. The food was amazingly fresh and flavorful. The ambiance brought you back to earlier times and relaxing days and the staff was friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a delicious meal while overlooking the ocean on a gorgeous day. Simply delightful!"

Lo Mo Pizzeria

★★★★★ 4.7 (38)

"Hands down the best pizza in the area. I went to school on long island and this is the closest you can get to thin crust pizza reminiscent of the area. Great flavorful and seasonal selections, a curated wine and beer menu, and the best garlic knots in the area. The star is the process - the pizza is cooked to perfection every single time, no matter the toppings. The homemade ranch is also worth the splurge. Don't miss out on Lo Mo!"

Los Portales Mexican Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4 (52) • $$

"Always have a great experience here. Very rarely do we end up having to wait long. Their Carne Asada is delicious! Their Seafood Chimichangas are good as well. Their chips and salsa are hit or miss. Sometimes they are fresh and hot , other times a little stale. Drinks are always cold! We love when we get Isaac as our server. Always friendly and on top of things !"

Sal's NY Pizza

★★★★☆ 3.6 (60) • $

"How have I not been here before? Several coworkers of mine decided to try this place out and I'm glad we did!I called on a Thursday afternoon and ordered one large cheese pizza, 2 steak and cheese subs, an order of French fries & 3 Pepsi's.The lady who took my order on the phone was super nice. The pizza was delicious! It certainly was New York style; thin and large! The steak subs were amazing! The bread was fresh made and huge. It had so much onion and mushroom with the perfect amount of cheese. My coworker didn't care for the fried much. She said that it was very soggy. Overall, I can't wait to come back and order something different."

"Great Stromboli. The pizza doesn't seem to taste like NY pizza to me but it's ok. The Building itself could use a little pick me up but overall it's good."

Greater Grinders Submarines

★★★★☆ 4.3 (40) • $

"This place reminds me of my childhood when life was so much less complicated and stressful. Greater Grinders Subs, is practically an institution in our local community. They've been in business for over 40 years and they are not slowing down one bit.This place just smells like an old school Sub Shop, immediately after walking through the door that magical scent hits you and you're transported back in time. A look around at some of the old memorabilia adorning the walls will remove any doubt that you are in a special place. I'm a simple man and I enjoy simple pleasures. The Special Grinder is my favorite item on the menu. It's piled high with tender beef, onions and peppers, all wrapped in a beautiful sub roll and packed tightly with their signature wrapping paper. It pretty amazing to behold."

J&K Style Grill

★★★★★ 4.9 (30)

"This place is soooooo gooood!The staff was so nice and welcoming! I let the lady at the front know it was my first time there and she gave awesome suggestions and answered all my questions about the menu items. Thank you for your patience! I had the stuffed wings and the eggroll sampler. I loved all of it my fav was the chicken philly and the regular philly eggroll! If you are in the area this is a must try! When I return I am going to try the waffle burger and the black eyed pea burger!"
