Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Colonial Williamsburg

My husband and I were pleasantly surprised because we were seated inside instead of the patio. Our reservation stated that we would be seated on the patio. Our server was attentive, but not overly so. When I suggested that one of the dishes was a little low, the server noted my request and promptly brought a fresh replacement. The cost was a little pricey, especially with a 20 percent gratuity added and a suggestion for an added gratuity, but the dining experience was worth it. We will return.

The food was delicious, and plenty of it. This was our third trip to Williamsburg, and we’ve had dinner at several of the Colonial restaurants but Christiana’s was the best. The baked Oysters were excellent, after five hours I’m still thinking about them. My wife had the Turkey and I Roast Beef, both were moist and cooked to perfection. The sides were Mashed Potato and Stuffing, both delicious. FYI: The Stuffing was to die for. Some how we found room for dessert. Chocolate Cake, Apple Pie. Still thinking about them too. Thank you Christiana Campbells and your staff for a wonderful Thanksgiving.

We were seated quickly and Darrell (a recent Virginia Wesleyan graduate) was our server. As always, service here is exceptional. We have been coming here for years, and have sometimes cancelled reservations elsewhere just to enjoy another meal here. My husband salmon and shrimp in parchment that he raved over. I had gluten free baked crab cakes that were outstanding. The portions are huge, so no room for dessert. It’s a popular restaurant, we recommend reservations for the evening especially over holidays. But you will have a superb meal!

Best rabbit ever! And special entree of rockfish over chili mashed potatoes terrific

Cochon on 2nd is a gem and one of the best restaurants in the Williamsburg area. It is a must do when we are in the area. The food is delicious, the service is impeccable, and the ambiance is so relaxing. They really know how to take care of their customers!
