We’re captivated by the natural beauty and bounty of Virginia.

We’re not just for celebrating, and we’re not just a steakhouse: we’re the sophisticated dining experience that every steakhouse wants to be when it grows up.

    This was my first time dining at Black Cow Chophouse, and it was an excellent experience. We were there during happy hour when drinks are discounted and at least one meat entree is, so if you chose, you could get a very delicious meal and beverage for under$30. The menu is varied with delicious sides served family style. Our salads came with our steaks and were excellent as was the fresh bread and butter. The desserts did not disappoint, particularly the cherry crème brûlée. Service here is top notch. The vibe is cool and unpretentious. We did feel slightly rushed to finish so the next seating could begin, but I get that this fabulous restaurant has high demand, as it should. My compliments to the entire staff.

    Wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at the Ivy Inn with five delicious courses. We especially enjoyed the wide variety of starters (course two): the empanadas and the Bison short ribs were amazing. Thank you Ivy Inn, for providing a traditional Thanksgiving meal with a gourmet Southern flair!
