“Not sure if it is still on the menu, but if not I do believe one can still special order it. It's the Blackened Chicken Alfredo pizza. It's made with Alfredo sauce, chicken, diced tomatoes, and spinach. Definitely worth the trip!”

“Dish is located downtown beside the James River and is one of the longest running establishments in Lynchburg. The restaurant takes inspiration from tapas bars and introduces dishes from all over the world to create a truly eclectic meal to suit a diverse range of tastes. On the menu, you can find shareable plates and side dishes such as bruschetta with crab and asparagus and duck confit spring rolls. The owners pride themselves in creating a relaxed and communal atmosphere, and diners are encouraged to order as few or as many dishes as they like. Inside, the restaurant is bright and roomy.”

“As its name implies, dogs are welcome outside on the patio at The Water Dog! Great beer & raw oyster menu. Perfect for catching a game or grabbing a drink before a show. ”

“If you want to find a spot for entertainment as well as food, Jimmy’s on the James is the place for you. The live music, performed by popular local musicians, is fun without being intrusive, and if you’re lucky, you could be treated to a performance by the proprietor himself. Food-wise, the menu supplies a range of meatloaf, burgers and steaks for under $20 apiece. The meat-heavy menu is also complemented with a range of risottos and delicious pastas. Plus, no visit to a southern-style restaurant would be complete without something deep-fried, and Jimmy’s fulfills this by providing deep-fried Oreos as a dessert option.”
