Glass Light Restaurant 201 Granby Street, Norfolk, VA 23510

"Visited this restaurant on a staycation. I called and reserved the Chefs Counter for two and tried the Five course with wine pairing. We enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant and watching each dish be prepared. The selection was excellent and I definitely enjoyed the waitress expertise in wine. The chef that was present for the day was not the regular chef. However, he was very friendly, explained every dish in detail and answered all questions without hesitation. We missed out on seeing the museum because we took our time enjoying each dish that was served."

"The food is amazing. I really enjoyed the crispy octopus and seared scallops. The desserts are very good, too. Service was outstanding. The only thing is the atmosphere … it’s a little open (the opposite of intimate) so the feeling is a little odd."

"My husband and I celebrated my birthday at the Chefs Counter last night. It was the best meal of my entire life. Chef Patrick made us feel at home. He explained each dish as it came out and was very conscious of my food allergy. Jami was an amazing server but every single person working there was warm and welcoming. I cannot wait to find an excuse to come back!"

"Had a great time here! Amanda is a wonderful bartender- very nice and knowledgeable. We noticed her ability to interact well with many different types of people and stay cool (and kind) under pressure. The food was delicious and the ambiance is upscale. Would come again!"

"We travel all over the US for work and this restaurant stuck out in fine dining. The service was excellent. The server had great recommendations. The Thai Turkey cocktail was one of the best cocktails we’ve ever had. It was the perfect balance and heat on the chili. Both the duck and halibut were delicious and we finished with the panna cotta."
