Reviews for Waterside Seafood Company in Norfolk, VA
The food here was stellar. I really love the atmosphere and the staff were very professional. I highly recommend this place.
Amazing food with a spectacular view of the water. But the best thing of all was the outstanding staff.
Sat at the bar. Great view if river. Immediately greeted by Ruby. She is great. Took my drink order. Gave me a minute and took... my food order. Had to try the She Crab soup cause the very good reviews. Also ordered the wings with the Jerk seasoning. Wow,soup was delicious. I add hot sauce to everything. A couple drops in this and .....outstanding. Plenty if large chunks of meat. Some of the best soup I've ever tasted. Now for the wings. I consider myself a wing connoisseur. I eat a lot at differentplaces across the US. I typically don't expect hotel lounges to have great wings but have had some pretty decent. These were onthe smaller side. Although have to pretty tasty. Tender meat, crunchy breading. Not spicy at all though. But overall not bad. Read more

After a long drive from Florida, I arrived for my check in and decided to go to the bar for a drink to take the edge off.... Noticing that there was quite a crowd, I wanted patiently to be serviced. I waited 15 minutes before being acknowledged that Iwas even there and to add insult to injury, when the bartender did acknowledge me, she did so with an indignant disposition bystating "What can I get you? I close in two minutes." Taken aback by her audacity, I told her "Actually, I'm fine, thank you.However, acknowledging that I was here would have been appreciated." She then went on to attempt to cause a scene byretorting..." I'm not going to argue with you! I've been here since 2pm!" I politely replied, " I'm not making an argument. I'msimply stating that having been acknowledged would have been appreciated. I then left and went about my evening. The followingmorning, after due consideration, I spoke with the manager who was receptive to my complaint. Read more
We ordered room service from here. We ordered calamari, shrimp and a crab cake. The food was delicious, it just wasn't hot which... made the calamari batter tough. The person that took my order was super sweet and patient. I think if I visit again I will dinein the restaurant and see if there's a difference. Read more
Food was okay but the bar service was very poor. There was no greeting, no offer of a drink while I looked at the menu. The food... was merely okay, but the bartender never came to check on the food. I asked for a drink menu for a second drink. Bartender nevercame back to ask what I wanted. And the price for the first drink I ordered was wrong. I want to point out as well, that the barwas not even close to full. I was a bartender myself for many years. 7 people at the bar should be a cake walk. Now, perhapsthis bartender was having an off day but especially given the prices this place charges I would expect at least attentiveservice. Doing the basic bare minimum, like offering a drink and checking on the food when it came out. Read more
