Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Mount Crawford

The Local is a Charlottesville favorite for those seeking great food in an energetic environment. The food is well-prepared and consistently great tasting. Even with a reservation, there may be a 10 - 15 min wait, but it is well worth it!

The food was delicious, we had the tuna and short ribs for our dinners with the sea salt olive oil baguette! The cocktails were underwhelming, we ordered gin martinis which served in coupe glass rather than a martini glass and it didn’t feel like a full martini. Service was fine.

This place never fails to offer excellent food and wine with friendly and efficient service. It is one of the very best fine dining restaurants in Charlottesville. The changing menu always seems to feature a good range of classic dishes that are very well prepared.

The Ivy Inn offers very high quality food selections in a relaxed, lovely older house, or patio, setting. Nearly every ingredient is made in house, including wonderful breads and desserts. In an increasingly mediocre, expensive dining landscape The Ivy Inn is truly worth every penny! It is by far our favorite restaurant to dine at in the Charlottesville area.

Great service, Food was hot and delicious! Bartenders always amazing!
