This spot turned out to be amazing! My last experience with a social media-recommended place was a disaster, so I wasn't sure what to expect. However, I was genuinely impressed by the service, food, drinks, and ambiance. The DJ brought great energy, adding to the vibe. Parking was manageable, thanks to a lot in the back, though street parking might be tricky. Overall, I had a fantastic night at this restaurant!

My friend and I dined at Privilege Restaurant in Portsmouth, Virginia, yesterday, holding a reservation for 8:15 PM. Upon arrival, the presence of security personnel outside provided a slight sense of safety. We noticed they have a parking lot, but it was unclear if guests could park there. Fortunately, we found street parking just a short walk from the restaurant.We were seated at the back of the restaurant near the kitchen. Shortly after, we were greeted by the manager, Ebony, who provided attentive service without being overbearing throughout the night.We started with lemon drop cocktails in strawberry and passion fruit flavors; they were satisfactory, though not exceptional. For appetizers, we chose the crab stuffed shrimp and crab egg rolls. Both were enjoyable, but I particularly preferred the shrimp balls.Our entrées included lamb chops with mac and cheese and broccolini, while I opted for the salmon pasta. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Additionally, we ordered hookah; it's worth noting that payment for hookah is cash-only, a detail not mentioned on the website. Fortunately, there's an ATM inside the establishment.The ambiance was pleasant and relaxed, making it a spot I'd consider revisiting if I'm in the area. The DJ was outstanding, and I would recommend visiting when they have live music, as the standard speaker system wasn't as impressive.Overall, I'd rate our experience a 7.0 out of 10.

Classic hood wanna be fancy restaurant. Service was poor, food was mid. The table was rocky, we had reservations and were sat in the back near the kitchen and bathroom and the place was empty. As we entered a group of staff members, our server included were all chillin and sitting at the table we were sat at. You are given plastic cutlery to eat with but your meal entree is $30-40. They throw a flower in every I guess to make it look good then the frozen garlic toast took me over lol . One and done for me and mine. It's all fluff but then again it's Portsmouth- Ptown, I shouldn't have had higher expectations.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Privilege, and it was an exceptional experience. The chicken and waffles were a true highlight - the waffle was unbelievably fluffy, and the chicken was fried to a crispy perfection with just the right seasonings. The portion size was generous, making it perfect for sharing.One of the standout features was the Instagram-worthy wall setup, which provided an excellent backdrop for photoshoots. The ambiance was further enhanced by the DJ who created a lively brunch vibe, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal.The servers at Privilege were not only pleasant but also extremely attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was top-notch. I highly recommend Privilege for a delicious meal, great ambiance, and a memorable brunch experience.

This is a cute spot. Very well decorated and clean. Our resy was for 5:15 on Thursday and we were the only customers. It looked like they were just opening because wet floor signs and the mop bucket were still out and I could see staff in the back wrapping silverware. A young lady was behind the bar putting makeup on. As a customer I don't want to see that. It was dead for a good hour. Our waitress was Destiny, who was pleasant and attentive. We got a hookah for $25 and it was excellent. Very smooth. I got the salmon, mashed potatoes and broccolini. Everything was seasoned well!! Salmon could have been bigger for $30. It's definitely a vibe; R&B music playing not too loud. At 8 a DJ showed up and the music got louder, so I'm sure they were getting ready to get turnT.I would go again, especially since Portsmouth is severely lacking when it comes to grown and sexy places to go. When you go MAKE SURE that you look at your receipt and see if gratuity is on it. I specifically asked if it was and was told that it wasn't, only to look at it much later when I received it via text and I tipped $25 in cash. In NO WAY was the service, food and the experience worth a $40 tip (18% + $25 = $40) I'll charge it to the game and deduct a star from this review. Stop lying to get better tips!

The ambiance is amazing!!!! The music is a little to loud couldn't hear the people in my party sitting next to me. The AC was not working at all. The food was delicious there does seem to be a little disconnect between front of house and the Chef and kitchen associates. Our waitress was very polite and apologetic could see that she was definitely trying to provide a nice experience. Although not to attentive I would definitely come back and recommend you to try it out!!! Definitely see the potential for sure !!! I'll be back. I want to try out the dinner menu and regular drink menu.

Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal experiences and my personal experiences alone,so with that being said let's go!.My wife and I were invited here for a birthday party brunch that started @ 12pm sharp! Now we all know some of the party will be kind of tarty! But that's neither here nor there. We arrived at approximately 11:59 sharp ( I looked at my watch ) and we told the lady at the podium we were here for the birthday party, and we were immediately shown to the 4 tables that were reserved for us. The waitress brought out ice water.Shortly afterwards the birthday girl walked in with some cupcakes, it was just the three of us until 12:45 and then people started rolling in. We started to order drinks and food. The drinks took a little longer than expected but the food came out promptly but we had to continuously ask for condiments for our food. I left a star off because the service was a little bit slow but the main reason was because my wife ordered a lemon drop martini and there was an eyelash floating in it!. Overall everything else was ok and I would definitely return and recommend this establishment!.

This is one of the worst restaurants I've ever been to in the 757. The service was so bad my sister was in tears. This was her birthday brunch and it was completely ruined.We were seated and waited for 20 minutes before the waitress came and said she forgot she had a table. It went down hill from there. We watched her dance around and talk to people. Our food came and we had no utensils to eat with. After 20 minutes our waitress came out with sparklers and cake for another table to sing happy birthday. After we finished we waved her down she came to the table and yelled "i'm only one person!" and walked off. A guy later came to take care of us. We were finally able to eat but that was almost an hour after we ordered our food. It's so loud inside it's hard to talk to anyone. I DO NOT RECOMMEND

The vibe is definitely on point for adults. This is a great date night / Girls' night out. The staff was very friendly, kind and just nice. Our waitress was sweet but not attentive.The food is awesome, but the menu could have more variety during the weekdays. I wasn't fond of the drinks, and they didn't have any beer.It was a little warm in the building, so they may need to work on that . I was surprise to see we were being charged $10 per person for entertainment that would be applied to our bill. Also, we were not given a receipt.Just told that for 1 appetizer, 4 regular drinks, and 2 entrée our bill was $200.00.So would I go again, Yes, for their brunch.
