The Social Terrace

Five stars for their breakfast but three for their dinner.At dinner, the food was excellent but the service was extremely short. Fast forward to breakfast the next morning, and the food was excellent and the service was outstanding.Really good food at both breakfast and dinner but service needs to be improved during the dinner hour.

Absolutely beautiful! The outside seating was gorgeous. The prices are a little steep for the quality of food, but you are paying for the ambience, which is amazing. My husband ordered the steak Frites, and it was good. I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich, which is possibly the best crispy chicken sandwich I've had. The meat was extremely tender, though it seemed strange to order a crispy chicken sandwich at what seems to be a fine dining restaurant. We are coming from Dallas, so maybe this is common in Virginia. Regardless, it was yummy. We also ordered the salt cod fritters, which were very tasty and reminded me a lot of crab cakes. Due to Covid all of the staff wore masks the entire time. They also require masks when you are not sitting at your table. You are sitting behind the Williamsburg Inn, which is an historic Inn and is beautiful! Overall, the experience was wonderful. The staff was great and the ambience and view of the colonial Williamsburg Inn along with the fire pits and water fountain in the back patio area were wonderful. Originally we were seated inside a tent with clear plastic walls. We asked to be moved because the view was somewhat obstructed by the plastic, and they happily moved us. If it were cold outside, the plastic walls would be great to keep the heat in, as they had heaters throughout. But it was a beautiful 70° so we were moved outside and it was much more enjoyable. We are Happy we went. Definitely recommend for a romantic "date night".
