COLONIAL WILLIAMSBURG. This place has the right name – you can smell the aroma all the way down Prince George Street.

You can also make your own s'mores here – they give you the stuff and the flame! A funky, fun place with a diverse clientele. |

Backfin Seafood Restaurant & Raw Bar |
|
(Restaurants - American) |
|
3701 Strawberry Plains Rd, Williamsburg 23185 757-565-5430 |
 |
| |
Description:
One of the best-known seafood places in Williamsburg, this is a casual, laid-back place with photos instead of stuffed fish as decor. The crab cakes are popular at lunch and dinner, and the "backfin skins" with crabmeat and cheddar are a local favorite. The raw bar offers just about anything you could want this side of sushi. This is a family-friendly place with great seafood. Let the key lime pie finish off whatever room your stomach might have left! |

199 S Boundary St, Williamsburg 23185 757-253-1847 |
 |
| |
Description:
COLONIAL WILLIAMSBURG. If you are lucky, they will have the "Hot Pot" on the menu when you dine here. It is a combination of seafood, vegetables and beans and is a complete meal. But other items are also outstanding – local seafood is done right here! On a summer day, the outside raw bar is a great place to dine and people watch. There are lots of specials for lunch and dinner, and they are always excellent. This is a casual, fun place in Merchants Square. |

Description:
WILLIAMSBURG. Locally owned by a graduate of the Culinary Institute, this establishment became popular because of the beef, but there is much more to choose from. Regional seafood, chops and chicken dishes appear on the menu – even fans of tapas can be satisfied thanks to options like the Crab Stuffed Shrimp and Mussels Napoletana. The decor is elegant yet cozy, with just a touch of Southwestern influence thrown in. |

The desserts are outstanding, but if you have a sandwich, you may have to get the dessert to go – the sandwiches are super-sized. Alcoholic beverages are available, and there is outdoor seating in nice weather. |

| |
Description:
COLONIAL WILLIAMSBURG. This is the place for historical seafood! Regional seafood dominates the evening menu, and many dishes are prepared just the way George Washington would have had them when he dined here. For non-seafood lovers, there are beef and chicken dishes. There are "seatings" at this restaurant, and reservations are made through Colonial Williamsburg. There is a wonderful porch for resting before or after dinner, and strolling balladeers make dinner even more interesting! |

Cities Grille |
|
(Restaurants - American) |
|
4511C John Tyler Hwy Governor's Green Shopping Center, Williamsburg 23185 757-564-3955 |
 |
| |
Description:
The chef, trained at the Culinary Institute of America, has parlayed his skills into a successful bistro. With dishes based on particular cities (hence the name), the menu changes a couple of times a year, but that is okay with the diners. For lunch, creative sandwiches reign, and for dinner the Blue Gouda Beef Tenderloin with shrimp on the side is a local favorite. The ambience is upscale and trendy, and there is a loyal following here. |
