    Cochon is one of the top 2 or 3 dining destinations in the Williamsburg area, and deservedly so. The food is varied, even with the limited chef's choice prix fixe menu, and expertly.prepared.and presented..Excellent wine list with a range of fairly reasonable prices and a knowledgeable staff to provide commentary. Superb service that is attentive without hovering. It is not cheap but it is one of those places where you walk out thinking what a great meal rather than worrying about the cost.

    The Fat Canary always exceeds expectations. The food is perfection and the service is consistently excellent. The soup special, creamy eggplant with tomatoes, basil and Parmesan was a real treat. Our waitress, Melissa, was attentive and helpful. We look forward to our next visit!

    Hands down the best food and overall dining experience we’ve had since moving to the Norfolk area. Everything was cooked to perfection and the flavors of each dish perfectly complemented each other. On the expensive side (though worth it) for most people to eat here regularly, but absolutely a go to for those special occasions. My wife and I are already looking forward to our next visit.

    Very nice Christmas Eve lunch in this bar/restaurant on Yorktown’s “modern” water front. Appetizer was great, entrees were good and the dessert was spectacular. Nice views and extremely friendly service. Visit the book/antique shop across the street for fun nostalgia.
