Restaurants near White Hall

This restaurant was even better than we anticipated. The food and service were excellent. Beautiful presentation too!

Took quite a bit of time for meals to be served. Service was great though

I was on a solo retreat and wanted to indulge! I ordered the appetizer ham platter. Very tasty. Then I had the prime rib, cooked perfectly! It came with a soup or salad and dessert. I had the salad with pecans and apples. Delicious! I savored every course, but didn’t over indulge in any one thing. Dessert was the “snow eggs”. Honestly, it was absolutely delicious, with cinnamon and meringue over custard and not too sweet. However, mentally, I couldn’t get pass the name and how it was two plops of whipped egg whites over a very thin, runny custard. I’m glad I tried it…would have eaten more if it had not been for the visual snafu. I took all leftovers back to my hotel and had a late night snack since I ate dinner at 5pm. I want to send a special thanks to the anonymous, kind person who surprised me and picked up my check. I’m sure they didn’t know I had ordered a $105 tasting “experience”. It really made my night. I took the retreat to reset myself for holidays after losing 2 close relatives this year. It’s nice to know there are still good people in this world. My husband is going to feel like he missed out (and he did!), but he understood. Now, the downside of the entire experience was the parking. I didn’t see anything on Open table about parking. The lot is on a back street and not clearly marked. It is a walk for someone who needs two knee replacements. I had to walk down a dark street & alley, only to find two handicapped spaces immediately behind the tavern. How would anyone know that? Be sure to know details about parking before you go to avoid missing your reservation. I ended up calling the restaurant phone number which is the main Col. Wmsbg. number. The operator stayed on the phone and helped me to find the lot. The issue is that the restaurant is IN the historic are where no cars are allowed. As a grandparent of a 1 year old. I agree that it’s not the place for babies. You could really ruin someone’s special night.

Berret’s is one of the best restaurants in Williamsburg with a great location adjacent to Merchant’s Square, in the heart of Colonial Williamsburg. We had a festive lunch before attending a Christmas show at the Kimball Theater conveniently located across the Berret’s parking lot. The seafood options are amazing and the other menu choices will satisfy all diners. The servers are wonderful professionals who have found a home at Berret’s so you can ask for your favorite server each time you go. We especially enjoy Channing because of her great sense of humor, professionalism and knowledge of the menu.

The staff was wonderful, the food was fabulous and the price was great. We went for a birthday and the waitress was so sweet and took the cake to the back to get it ready. The chef decorated the plate and added shaved chocolate. It was really special! I highly recommend this restaurant. We will definitely be going back!
