Best Seasonal Restaurants in Virginia

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing afternoon tea at Floris at VFMA, and it was an absolutely delightful affair. The sweet and savory menu items were a perfect balance of flavor, and the selection of teas complemented the dishes beautifully. Each bite and sip felt like a moment to savor. The ambiance at Floris was equally impressive—the seating was both comfortable and elegant, creating an inviting atmosphere that truly enhanced the experience. The staff equally warm and inviting. A personal highlight for me was the cucumber sandwiches. They were wonderfully fresh and flavorful—so good that I found myself wishing for more! Floris exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to return for another memorable dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a refined and relaxing afternoon tea!

The food was amazing! The service was excellent…our server took great care of us and offered suggestions that were delicious. I love the atmosphere at Stella’s. My only complaint was we were seated right in front of the door. There was a lot of traffic in and out. It was freezing that night so every time the door opened we got a gust of cold air. That won’t keep us away. We will be back!!

Absolutely wonderful meal. ❤️ Friend from out of town, wanted something eclectic foodie meets comfort. Serena our waitress was AMAZING. Great menu recommendations, subtle attentive service, highly recommend.

As an event with a buffet, it is important to let patrons know when you are shutting down the food. (We understand it was to prepare for the next shift). Still important; some at our table did not get dessert.

Went for Thanksgiving dinner. Food was ok but really appreciated the staff working on a holiday.
