Mouth Watering...

My sweetheart & I have been hearing about this "hidden treasure" for some time now. I've lived in hampton roads since I was a kid, some 25 years now. This is the first time that we've been to Steinhilbers. I treated my sweetheart to a wonderful evening out just recently. We could not of been any happier. I had the steak & lobster and to be honest, I was so into my food that I don't remember what Jenn had. I had to close my eyes on a few of my bites and chew real slow to enjoy every second. Mouth watering! The service was excellent and the enviroment was stellar as well. The owner came up to us and welcomed us, and I was sure to thank her for the amazing dining experience. We will most certainly be regulars. Thanks Steiny's!!! A 10 from us!

Food was average. I do not know why this place is so special. Everything is overprised. Wait was quiet, but not friendly at all. When we arrived there, many tables were available, but they made us wait for 25 minutes.

Steinhilber's Restaurant Review

Since 1939, this elegant yet cozy, family-operated bastion of seafood and classic American fare --- twice baked potato, anyone? --- hidden away amidst Southern pines in a residential neighborhood has seen countless birthdays, anniversaries, prom dates, and plain old special nights out. “Steiny’s shrimp” (fried jumbo fantail) with its signature sauce is rightly legendary, but fresh shucked...

One of the oldest family owned and operated restaurants in Virginia specializes in seafood and Southern hospitality.

We love Steinhilbers. It is a restaurant that is located in a secluded area in the back of Thalia Acres neighborhoood. It was built on the banks of an inlet off of the chesapeake bay. They specialize in seafood, but they also have a large assortment of steak and chicken items on the menu. You will have to look this...

The server Larry was very attentive and so caring. It was a breathe air to just be able to relax by the fire pit right near the water and not hVe a care in the world. The manager John truly cared about every table making sure everything was perfect. I work at a steakhouse and this is the best steak...

Returning after so many years to have dinner with a good friend at Steinhilber's. The logo hadn't changed. A good sign. The bar for dining was comfortable and slightly private. We had a dozen oysters to start, remarkably wonderful red wine, the signature butterfly shrimp, ahi tuna and for dessert, another dozen raw oysters. We finished it all off with...

Wife and I went to Steinhilbers for Valentines dinner. I know we were taking a chance on one of the busiest days of the year for restaurants. I understand they opened several hours early just to be able to accommodate all the diners.
Steinhilbers is a throwback to those great dining places you don't seem to find much anymore.
