If you are thinking of trying this place, stop what you are doing and go! This place is tiny. And it fills fast. If in a funky part of town, I hear they block off the street in the summer for a street market. The food is fantastic and probably one of the best burgers I have had. The smash burger has two patties and just the right toppings; the bun is soft and buttery. I think the burger and fries are good for two people. The fried chicken sandwich is also excellent and suitable for 2--good job to whoever is in the back. The weird thing is that many Mexican things are on the menu, and Mexican beer is in the cooler. But it doesn't look or feel like a Mexican place. I plan on returning and trying something different; I'm sure I won't be disappointed.

I recently visited The Pink Dinghy in Virginia Beach, and it was a delightful experience overall! The menu is creative and full of unique options that make it stand out as a brunch spot.We ordered the brunch burger, Cuban sandwich, pomegranate hibiscus donut, and chilaquiles. The brunch burger was a standout--juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The chilaquiles were another highlight, packed with fresh, vibrant flavors. And the pomegranate hibiscus donut was a perfect balance of sweet and tangy--a definite must-try!The Cuban sandwich was just okay for me--it lacked a bit of the bold flavor I was expecting. I also had a maple cold brew, which was decent but didn't quite wow me like the food did.Despite those minor critiques, the overall experience was fantastic. The atmosphere is bright and inviting, and the staff was friendly and attentive.

Although reservation was made on Resy, they didn't have our reservation. We were told we could sit at the community table inside or we could sit outside. We chose to sit outside on a table by ourselves. Then when I tried to order their special that was advertised, I was told they didn't have it... ugh

I absolutely love the Pink Dinghy! It is the perfect spot after a long day on the beach! It is the cutest restaurant in all of Virginia Beach! It's a very intimate spot but if the weather is nice they have lovely outdoor seating as well! The staff was so lovely and were very attentive to food allergies the table had! The past time I had an amazing margarita and fish boa buns! It's the perfect spot in Virginia beach for a slightly elevated meal!

Cute little place located in the ViBE district with fast friendly service and delicious food. We stopped here before attending an exhibit at the convention center, and had an amazing brunch. We tried the chilaquiles, the brunch burger, and the churros for dessert. Our drinks consisted of the orange hibiscus mimosas, espresso martini, and their homemade cold brew with horchata cream. Everything was fresh and delicious, with generous portions and speedy execution. The noise was a bit of a problem though. The place is tiny and was stuffed to the brim with chatty people on this lovely Saturday, so it was very hard to hear the server or carry on a conversation. We probably won't dine inside again, but once it gets cooler, their patio is definitely worth checking out!

The Pink Dinghy was an amazing experience! It's in the cutest building, & the inside felt cozy and welcoming. We had a large party for a birthday dinner & the service was amazing.We tried the cocktails and everything on the food menu between our whole party. Everything was delicious! It's tapas style so come hungry & ready to share!

On 1/13/2024, I hosted a private birthday dinner at Pink Dinghy. Coordinating with the owner on every detail and she delivered. The food was the BEST. Every dish hit the spot. The dishes were a hit so much that we kept going back for a couple weekends. Highly recommend the Mushroom Pasta. The atmosphere is small intimate and very aesthetically pleasing.

One of my favorite places to eat in Virginia Beach. The food is always unique, tasty, and never disappoints. The inside is small, super cute and decorative and very chic. Definitely a place to take the girls out for Valentines. The only thing is, it's really small. The service is great too, the servers are always attentive.
