"Across the board, Charlottesville's food scene is inventive, diverse and brimming with talent."
—Jane Black, The Washington Post
"You have to try Littlejohn's New
York Delicatessen. It's one of the few places that will serve
you food no matter the time of day. They have great sandwiches.
And they're more than willing to cater to your special likes and
dislikes. Try the Wild Turkey sandwich. It will keep you coming
back. Also, be prepared for enthusiastic service. Littlejohn's
employees work odd hours. Caffeine keeps them wired and full of
interesting comments."
—Lisa French, Former Life Editor, The
Cavalier Daily
Virginia Law Families Tip:
Bodo's is probably the best buy for a family
meal in the area. High chairs are available and even very young kids
will munch a plain bagel while older ones should find a sandwich to
their liking (most are only around $2.50). In addition to the standard
menu, Preston Avenue location has probably the lowest price for frozen
yogurt in town.
Restaurants come and go. For the latest on Charlottesville
restaurants, see the list in the back of C-Ville Weekly, (Dining
Web site) or check out Charlottesville-Dining.com,
which offers surveys and rankings of local restaurants. For true-blue foodies, the Hook's food blog, The Dish, offers breaking news on dining and food.
