Congratulations!. One of only two 4-diamond restaurants in all of Hampton Roads. Congratulations, Chef Rodney and staff!
New favorite spot. My boyfriend and I went during restaurant week and will definitely be going back! The service was outstanding! The food was amazing (highly recommend the fried oyster appetizer)! And the ambience was elegant and inviting! Terrapin has become my new favorite restaurant!
In Love…. I made my reservation for our first anniversary here based on the awesome reviews & I must say that Terrapin did not disappoint. Service was spectacular! The food was creative, fresh and delicious. We did the 4-course tasting menu with the wine pairings & our food came out promptly. My husband loved the steak! It was the best he had ever had. My lobster pasta was magnificent. I don’t have enough characters to go into detail about all 8 courses so I will just mention my favs. The Watermelon Gazpacho was refreshing, & stimulating to all of my tastebuds. The Fried Green Tomato was amazing as well. My highlight was the Australian Moscato & my S’mores dessert- an all-grown-up version of a classic. Wow. This Chef really knows what he is doing!
Overpriced and mediocre food. Tiny portions. The crab cakes were dry and overspiced. The scallops were served with a couple pieces of mushroom, nothing else!
This was an excellent dining experience. The service was unassuming but flawless, prompt and attentive. Remarkable attention to detail, such as matching napkin color to outfits. All of the dishes we ordered were well executed, but some were superb. The perfect tasting menu would have been the cauliflower soup (simple, rich, and tasty), the mushroom stack (umami heaven!), the scallops (perfectly seared), and the chocolate pudding (finally, serious chocolate in a pudding!). Could have skipped the truffle Mac & Cheese (too much sharp cheddar).
Date Night Gem. This is a great place for date night. The staff was amazing and the buttermilk fried chicken was outstanding. I love the fact that they use local ingredients and grow their own herbs.
My fiance took me here for my birthday and it was awesome. The atmosphere is simple and upscale. I love that I could see into the kitchen from our table. The food was delicious and creative. Before our apps came out, we were served the most delightful bite of cheese with almond and olives. After our meal, we received made from scratch granola. I would have loved this place anyway, but the bonuses put them over the top.
