My wife and I recently celebrated her birthday at Schlesinger’s Steakhouse, and it was an exceptional experience. The ambience was perfect—not too light or too dark—creating an intimate atmosphere. The decor is beautiful, and the layout is thoughtfully designed. A fun touch was the complimentary mouthwash in the restrooms—it made me chuckle but was a surprisingly nice addition. The food selection was fantastic, with so many tempting options that it was hard to choose just one. We ended up ordering the filet mignon and pork chops, and both dishes were so well prepared that we kept picking off each other’s plates. The sides were excellent complements to the mains and added to the overall dining experience. Our waitress, Megan, was outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive without being overbearing. Her expertise and professionalism really stood out and enhanced the evening. The wine selection was also impressive, offering a wide variety to suit any taste. The location is quiet, safe, and offers plenty of parking, making it even more convenient. Schlesinger’s Steakhouse is truly a top-tier dining destination, and we can’t wait to return!

Our waiter Minh G. was very kind. He made sure we had everything we needed. He kept us with bread, which I love. The food was delicious. I love the chocolate soufflé it came with the Lamb meal. The lamb meal is only available on Thursdays. I also had their chocolate martini. It was very good. It’s a very clean restaurant and it’s so cute too. I would visit again.

Loved the ambience in the bar area, nothing better than a great meal in a slightly upscale casual setting. The service was exquisite. The Tavern Tini is a must try!

We did a round of dinner visits to three of the colonial taverns during Christmas week. The wait staff/Historical interpreters really make the experience and we had three very good ones. The food was all good but I didn't have high expectations for the beef and I was not surprised that it was good but not great. We were there for the experience and all the other food was pretty good as were the drinks and local beer. It was a fun time and an experience that we'd probably do occasionally when visiting WIlliamsburg. We'd recommend it for anyone who hasn't been

Valentines menu was great, tasty, good value, thoroughly enjoyable evening.
