We went there because we received a 100$ gift card. We had rock fish (catch of the day), ribs, crab dip, a pasta dish, a burger, 1 bourbon, 1 coke. Total with gratuity was about 165.00$. Great price! Most of the food was average with slightly small portions, but that crab dip was SUPERB!!! I would certainly return for the appetizer alone. The fries (that came with the ribs) were warm to the touch. The ribs were okay. The coke slaw was okay. The fish, rice and veggies was a super small portion. My dinner companion rated it a 7.5/10. The coke was crisp and the $13.50 whiskey seemed smaller than a shot. Let alone a drink. The vibe was chill. It got crowded when we were leaving around 6:45. Our server was VERY attentive. She is the reason for the 4 versus 3 stars. The parking in the front is enough for maybe 8-10 cars, but they offer valet parking. We parked on the street. I ate there before and it was pretty much the same thing. Would I return, sure.

Absolutely delicious. Absolutely everything. Absolutely everything was delicious. And that is coming from a gluten free diner. My husband, a gluten-full diner, shared the same experience. Our waiter, Cam, was super friendly, helpful and attentive. We sat on the heated porch and enjoyed the breathtaking views of the beach. Reading reviews, I asked about the flourless chocolate cake and it didn't disappoint! Chocolate velvety deliciousness. One of the best brunches I have ever been to.

Great service and food. I went in the off-season and the beach is basically empty, but this restaurant was crowded every night. It is right on the Atlantic and they have rotating specials with fresh seafood. Also, they have their orange crush signature drink, which is delicious. It is elegant, but casual. Good spot if in VA Beach.

First meal here in Virginia! Arrived from the airport, checked in to my hotel, then walked to this restaurant for dinner. Super convenient location, 10+ points for walkability! Sara was our server and she was great! We truly appreciate her telling the chefs of my sister's seafood allergy, made my sister feel safe and assured. I was so hungry after flying all day so I got so many plates LOL. The "ultra just seafood" was perfect to satisfy my seafood craving and the side of fries with crab dip was great pairing. Also, my sister requested broccoli to her cajun pasta and they accommodated! Appreciate that as well. It was so cold outside so we were skeptical of being sat at the outdoor patio, but it wasn't that bad! It was warm and covered so the wind did not pierce through at all. Anyways, great experience and great first impression for my Virginia experience

This restaurant is consistently remarkable. The seafood is always delicious; the service is somewhat varied and the ambience is inviting. My husband have chosen to eat there and have decided that it's our favorite restaurant in Virginia Beach.

Still one of my favorite places at the oceanfront! The originator of the orange crush and they still have their drinks down pat. Very good and strong. I tried their pomegranate crush (fall drink) and it was more like an orange crush but good. I always get the steamed shrimp- no old bay this time and they were great. Good size and tasty. Based on reviews I tried their crab dip and wow! So good! This would never be something I would have ordered on my own, but it was very cheesy, lots of crab, reminded me of a chicken dip- so good. Lastly, I tried their she crab soup which was fantastic. My sister says doesn't like crab, but tried it and really liked it, so we split it. As always, a much visit when I'm in town! I just wish they were pet friendly.

As a first-time guest at Waterman's, I was thrilled to get a seat right by the water with a fantastic view. Our server, Cam, was great and had all the best recommendations. He even double-checked ingredients for us due to allergies, which we really appreciated. We started with the crab dip and calamari which were both absolute musts, paired with one of the legendary Crush drinks. I opted for the Mango Habanero Crush, which was a perfect mix of refreshing with a hint of spice. For the main course, I had the seafood platter, and the hush puppies alone were satisfying and delicious! Overall, I had a great experience and will definitely be back the next time I visit Virginia Beach!
