Delicious! Went on a girl's weekend getaway to White Stone and my friend suggested this spot because it's her favorite place to grab food. We went for lunch on a Saturday afternoon, plenty of parking spots to choose from, and we were seated pretty quickly when we walked in through the door. Loved that the building was a dentist office before. Very cute decor of a dentist office inside haha. Anyway's we started out with espresso martinis, which were very delicious and just hit the spot. We decided on the brussel sprouts appetizer and to split 2 entrees. I got the smashed burger with their fries and my friend on their pear salad. BOTH were perfection and arrived within a reasonable time. The burger was juicy and the fries were crunchy and soft at the same time. The pear salad was fantastic, and the blue cheese was a wonderful touch. We ate pretty quickly because we were on our next adventure to a cruise sunset down the street. The service was fantastic and the food was delicious. Great lunch spot! Highly recommend!

Stopped in here on a Monday evening, as I was too lazy to cook and this was about the only open place in the area. Hostess said we couldn't be seated without reservation, but we were welcome to sit and order from the bar, so that is what we did. Service was prompt, friendly. The food came out fast and was delicious. The atmosphere was light and modern.We've known about this place, but have other places we frequent and The Office had kind of dropped off our radar. No longer! We will return, and will certainly call ahead for reservations (although we were perfectly happy sitting at the bar!) .Great food, great service.

While staying at the Tides Inn, we decide to venture into the town of Irvington for dinner. With not many places to pick from, we settled on the Office due to reviews from shop owners in the area. The place is very, "artsy" and I wasn't too sure what to expect when it came time to eat due to the menu having a variety of different types of foods(everything from pizzas and sandwich to steak and lobster). We decided to order the powPow cauliflower for our appetizer and was very happy with the decision. I ordered the Salmon Sandwich and the sauce was excellent (be prepared to eat open-faced- with a fork and knife) and French fries and my husband ordered the Ny Strip with the lobster cream sauce, mashed potatoes and green beans.. The steak needed the sauce as it was not really seasoned and there seemed to be some inedible pieces but it was a large enough piece he was able to get enough. The service was great! Our waitress (whose name I did not get unfortunately) was attentive and super happy! The manager came by a few times as well and checked on us. In making small talk he uncovered we were celebrating a milestone anniversary and told the waitress to get us a dessert on the house. The bourbon selection was good and the prices were very fair. If you are passing through Irvington Va or staying for a little getaway, check out the Office Bistro for lunch or dinner.

If this restaurant were in a bigger city, this would be a three star review. Given the options in town, it was way better than the restaurant across the street. My husband ordered the scallops, which were very good. I ordered the ahi, which was also good, but for some reason served atop a sizzling platter of bell peppers (like fajitas). It was absolutely the wrong way to present the dish and caused the fish to overcook as I was eating it. But the flavor was good. We tried the pow pow shrimp as an appetizer and they were fine. We made the mistake of ordering the key lime pie for dessert and received just a plain, unadorned slice of pie. It was okay. The restaurant ambiance itself was also just okay and service was fine. Nothing we were super excited about, but again, better than other options around.

We came here after a friend highly recommend it to us. And boy, she was not wrong! I warn you know, I expect this place can get crowded. We came super early in a very sleepy off season. You may want to get reservations.The decor/interior was exceptionally upscale and modern. The waitresses & hostesses were top notch. And the bartender & cook's skills represented themselves.Started out with the Rocket Flatbread. The figs & cheese were a great mix. This was way too much of an app for two, though. You were warned! The bread that was served was actually enough and if there are only two of us, I would have skipped the flatbread and stuck with the freebie.I didn't know what to get so I went low brow and went with the fried shrimp platter. I was afraid it would be a fat fest, but it was actually lightly fried. I don't know the real term, but I always think of it as Callabash style. It was very well done, tasty and for fried food was pretty light.Definitely a place we are returning to when we come back to town.

Our server Shy, was absolutely wonderful. She was attentive and gave wonderful recommendations. We started with the hot crab dip, it was very tasty. My husband ordered the honey bbq chicken sizzle, it wasn't quite what he expected (he's not a big fan of onions and peppers). I chose the fish and chips, and it delivered. The fries were tasty and the fish was great.

After getting a recommendation from another local business we decided to give The Office a try. Best decision! It was a clean and quirky place with a fantastic outdoor eating space (too chilly to enjoy on the day we were there).Service was awesome and the manager chatted with us which I loved.Between the two of us we had the Pow Pow Shrimp as an appetizer. It was the perfect balance of crispy, juicy, salty, spicy and a hint of sweet. I will try the oysters next time.The pear salad was out of this world. I had grilled shrimp on too that were perfectly cooked. Again, the balance of flavors and textures was excellent.The best thing we ate (and honestly one of my top ten meals ever) was the smoked tea crusted tuna. Everything about that dish, from presentation to taste, was spot on. Know before you go: reservations are recommended during high visit times. It's pricey but you get what you pay for. Their cocktails and beer and white selection are *chefs kiss*. Plan to visit the Founders Oak while you are in town.

"Holy Mackerel!" Mackerel was the special this Tuesday in Irvington va. Catch of the day! It was nice, served over rice. Just a bit over cooked which made it a little tough, but flavorful. Crab dip cheesy as promised, chips were standard and not up to the scooping task, but utensils provided. Nice start. Specialty cocktails were also delicious. First seating at 5 pm. Eating at the bar is a great option. Only open 5-8 pm in the evenings, but that is Irvington Va. (9pm= Midnight in other places). Over 60 crowd meeting friends for dinner. Love it. Lively chatter, so I wouldn't describe as intimate because it did get a little loud but it was ok. Cocktails reasonably priced. Entrees good price. The service was great. I think a wine dinner here would be fun to be a part of given the vibe. Restaurants with a seasonal crowd, in a rural must not be easy. With this quality of food, I think it is with a trip to check them out.

Ordered take-out staying at a local Inn. No napkins included with order. No plastic silverware included with food..Pow-Pow Shrimp had mediocre flavor. Not really different than fried shrimp anywhere else. The big plus was the big order of PEI Mussels. The downside is they needed" to be rinsed more thoroughly.Won't go back.
