Restaurants: - Savor VA, Virginia Beach 1340 N. Great Neck Rd, Suite 1232 Virginia Beach, VA 23454 o Trista: This is my husbands my absolute favorite restaurant here. You cannot go wrong with this place! Southern comfort food made seriously classy. You have to try their brunch. Another suggestion: their Fried Green Tomato stack and their desserts (bread pudding and Pour Amour. YUM!). Also, good wine list.
- The Green Onion, Virginia Beach 1603 Colley Ave.Norfolk, VA 23517 and 1336 North Great Neck Virginia Beach o Trista: Please do not write this place off by their random exterior. Inside is classy, trendy and has that modern, bistro feel to it. Great wines by the glass, and good seasonal menu choices based off whats locally available. Has become one of my default go-to restaurants. Also, check their website; they have lots of deals,priced wine nights, priced entrees, etc.
