The Veranda — Restaurant in Virginia Beach

Where do I begin?!?! The owners, the food, the atmosphere, the location, the prices, ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING was beyond PERFECTION! I can’t even believe how delicious and fresh our food was. I’ve searched for an Italian restaurant for years that would not only feel like home but would be a home worth returning to and it’s been fail after fail after fail and then came The Veranda… I was shocked on not only the flavor of our meals but the quality. You can clearly taste the love baked into every bite and you can see the joy doing it just by the way the food is plated… This place is amazing and I can’t wait to go back. I’m usually an early eater but for them I’ll eat at midnight! If you are looking for true Italian flare with a “Welcome Home” feeling this is definitely the spot!!! The owners are absolute Gems and have finally brought what our area needed for so long; a true Italian home…. Thank you Inna & Marian we will definitely be back...

From the moment you step through the door, the warm ambiance and welcoming owners set the stage for a memorable dining experience.

We started the night with the bruschetta and salads. We selected the pasta bolognese and salmon for entrees. All were excellent choices.

Each dish is a work of art, meticulously crafted with the freshest ingredients. The pasta, a true highlight, is handcrafted to perfection, delivering a delightful combination of texture and taste.

The attention to detail extends beyond the plate. The charming decor creates an inviting atmosphere.

The knowledgeable and friendly owners add a personal touch to the dining experience, guiding you through the menu with genuine enthusiasm. The wine list features carefully selected wines, enhancing the overall experience.

Once you dine here, you will understand why this...

I came with a friend. I sat down and waited for 10 minutes. The waitress didn't even come by and offer me a drink. This is a picture of Chicken Parmesan. It didn't come with pasta. If you wanted pasta, you had to pay $8 which is expensive especially since this meal was $25. The chicken parmesan did not have any flavor. I had to put salt on it to give it some flavor. It had barely any garlic in it. Even my friend had it and she thought the chicken wasn't fresh. The salad was good but definitely not worth the money. The waitress came over once to see how everything was. I would have had dessert but I couldn't get her attention. There wasn't anyone there to prevent her from helping us. I noticed that I have the same exact plates. I bought them at Walmart! I definitely do not recommend...
