BAZL Vibe and Dine — Restaurant in Virginia Beach

I visited this place for a birthday dinner on a Saturday night for the first time. Walking in, I was very impressed! It's a very nice lounge and decorated beautifully! We were seated immediately so there was no wait time. There was a DJ there and he played some really good music that everybody was vibing, dancing, and singing to. Definitely the right atmosphere if you're looking for a place to have a good time with good music! The waitress our table had was Autumn and she was amazing and very nice! She always checked to make sure we were good! However, as a fellow foodie, I have to say that I was extremely disappointed with the food. Be prepared to wait a while for your food and they didn't bring our entire table's food out at the same time. The food started coming out after about an hour of ordering, then It was between 10-30 minutes before everyone got their food altogether. I ordered the seafood mac and lemon pepper wings. The wings were extremely salty so I asked for ranch to be able to eat it. Please know that the seafood mac is not seafood mac...it's more like penne Alfredo. I was very disappointed to see that it was just like Alfredo pasta. It lacked flavor and somehow they forgot to put my shrimp in there...I was brought a cup of unseasoned shrimp to put in the "pasta". So it's safe to say that I won't be eating from here unless it's some other flavor of wings. If you're looking for a vibe and good time, then this is a good place but don't have high expectations for the food. I also saw that they had hookah in there so if that's your thing...

Well, let's discuss the fact that we stood at the door for at least 10 minutes before anyone decided to acknowledge us. We finally get seated and was told that the "buffet" was $50 with mimosas or $35 without mimosas. We said okay, it took FOREVER to give our order. The table and floor were dirty and sticky. The menu says to pick five items per plate. I picked four item, but they didn't have two of my items and no one bothered to tell me. The cook substituted blueberry waffles for the red velvet waffles I ordered. I DON'T eat blueberry waffles. The bacon came out burnt. We ordered fried apples, but guess what, they didn't have any of them either. We weren't told that until we asked for them a second time. So, I asked the waitress, "you mean to tell me that I'm paying $35 for three items that I could've gotten elsewhere for a cheaper price with more food. I had three strips of bacon and a handful of potatoes with two party wings. The manager came over to listen to my complaint and then gave me 20% off the meal. That did nothing for my bill, not EVEN cover the tax. I only went there to support the previous owner. Needless to say - I will NEVER go back there. People say NEVER say NEVER, but I DEFINITELY mean NEVER. I spend good money - I could've went anywhere else, but I had already talked up this brunch and another one of their employees had told me the day before that it was a great place...

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Bazl Restaurant in Virginia Beach and was thoroughly impressed by the outstanding service provided by their bartender, Lucy. From the moment I sat down at the bar, Lucy's warm and welcoming demeanor set the tone for an exceptional evening.

Lucy possesses an incredible ability to craft cocktails that are both innovative and perfectly balanced. I started with her recommendation, a signature cocktail that featured an intriguing blend of flavors I wouldn't have thought to combine. It was an absolute delight, showcasing her deep knowledge of mixology and her creative flair.

Beyond her technical skills, Lucy's customer service is truly top-notch. She took the time to get to know each guest, making personalized recommendations that catered to individual tastes. Her friendly conversation and genuine interest in her customers created an inviting atmosphere that made everyone feel at home.

Throughout the evening, Lucy handled the bustling bar with remarkable efficiency, ensuring that no one was left waiting for a drink. Her ability to manage multiple orders while maintaining such high standards of quality and service is...
