While traveling and staying at Virginia Beach, we decided to use an offer from the Entertainment website and settled on the Icehouse Restaurant. Our hotel was only a few blocks away, and we decided to take a 20-minute walk rather than drive.

We were greeted and seated promptly. Our server, Promise, took our drink orders, then our food orders. Our Entertainment offer was a free entree with the purchase of an entree: I ordered a pulled pork BBQ platter (big surprise) and my wife ordered the clam strips platter. There were many other possibilities on the menu as well. The food arrived quickly (we watched baseball on one wall TV and weather on another TV while we waited).

The BBQ came with two sides: I ordered mac & cheese (very good) and broccoli (also very good). My wife ordered marinated cucumbers and applesauce with her platter and enjoyed both. The only drawback in ordering two entrees, instead of sharing one as we usually do, was the amount of food. We're not used to eating so much, but we managed, and were glad that we had decided to walk to the restaurant!

The casual atmosphere was comfortable, the service friendly and efficient, and it was a good experience. This place doesn't look like much from the outside, but don't let that fool you. It's worth going in!

my last visit here was when milton warren had it in the late 70's early 80"s. fancy then and needed big wallet.
our friends from PA ate here twice last year and once this week.....they are in town so the lady could run in the half-marathon this past sat...he said we need to join them for dinner before they left....place has really changed. we had 6 great dinners and wed. nite specials ruled.....had no clue prices and food this good was available here locally right under my nose....we will be back.
great grilled port chops....fried pork chops....meatloaf....mahi-mahi....flounder....tuna bites for app. and peppers....nice wine under 25 bucks....and peach cobbler....:-)

it was raining hard and we got a parking spot in back lot for this visit....we called about parking before hand.

we had a nice server named Brittany.....pretty nice too......keep in mind...this is not a large eating spot, dinning room has like 10 or so tables...4 toppers, but they pull together well for larger groups.....small bar on back side as well, several were eating there as we entered.

bring your med. wallet, but not loaded.

On Sunday night they have crab legs for 11.99. They were excellent. Full of meat. Friendly staff and quite. It's off the tourist path.

Though I was leary going in (its a bit hole in the wall looking from outside) I was so glad we did. My family and I went for lunch last week while vacationing at Virginia Beach. Casual atmosphere, great service, and great food. I had the shrimp tacos which were on the specials menu. They were soo good. The shrimp were large and coated in a light crispy batter. One of the best meals I had while in Virginia! Highly recommend!

My family and I wanted to try someplace new and are we ever glad that we did. The vacation rental agent recommended the Ice House as a favorite local eatery. It's only a few minutes off of the beach on the South End. We visited on a Monday night and had a wait but it was worth it, The owner greeted us himself and was very accommodating to our family of 8 even though we showed up without a reservation. The atmosphere was nothing fancy bit it was warn and welcoming. The service was friendly and fast. The food was really, really good! So visit the Ice House and enjoy!
