Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Roanoke

An Unforgettable Dining Experience! I recently had the pleasure of dining at Perry’s and it was truly exceptional. From start to finish, everything about the experience was flawless. The food was outstanding—each dish was a perfect blend of flavors, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. The service was just as impressive. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. They ensured every detail was taken care of without being intrusive. The ambiance added to the experience, with its elegant decor and relaxing atmosphere, making it the perfect setting for a special evening. I highly recommend Perry’s to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. It’s a true gem, and I can’t wait to return!

Everything about our visit was great! The service, food, ambiance, etc. I will definitely be back again for the gnocchi. The complimentary valet was a nice touch as well.

We eat here two to three times a year. Last night was probably the best food we’ve had in the last five years. The bottle of Moet was great. Opening the evening was a plate of four pastries (gougyure?) filled with salmon mousse and caviar. We followed with a Farmer’s Green Salad. My wife had catch of the day. Me? Fried quail. There was not a hiccup with any of these entrees - all were excellent. The desserts - chocolate mousse and an apple tart with ice cream The chef’s gift to the table was a pumpkin soup with coconut milk. I wished that they would make this a regular menu item. One slight flaw. The recipe for the famous Dean Fearing tortilla soup seems to have changed. All in all - an excellent evening. IF. If I could change one thing? Hire a carpenter. Put in a vestibule ahead of the outside entry door. it was cold outside last night, and the drafts that passed through the restaurant are quite cold. All in all - the $$ were well spent.

We enjoyed our first trip to Al Biernat’s The wine and drinks were delicious. The salads were huge. I wish we would have split or maybe we should have asked how big they were. My husband had the Caesar which was perfect. Anchovies were fresh and delicious. I had the roasted pear salad. It was delicious. The dressing was perfect The entrees a filet and halibut were cooked perfectly Coconut cream pie delicious creamy. The bread basket had a great variety Overall I would give a 10 Thank you

Today our family celebrated my husband on graduating college! This was our first time eating at Haywire. Upon walking in we noticed the beautiful ambiance. The host was very pleasant. She told us to go up to the main level of the restaurant. Once we made it we were greeted again by more host. These ladies were pleasant as well. We were taken to our table and seated. This restaurant was kid friendly. Our waiter was extremely nice and professional. The food was AMAZING! The portion sizes were big! We tried the onion rings as a starter and they were so good! Our waiter gave our family a special dessert on the house to help celebrate my husband! It was overall an amazing experience and we will definitely come back!
