Customer Reviews
Small restaurant but wonderful atmosphere, allows for good conversation in an intimate setting. Sharing plates are a novel and fun idea. All good items were beautifully presented and tasty. Nice view looking over the city. Reservations are recommended since it is a small restaurant. Absolutely worth it, we will be back!
Perfect spot for a galentines dinner in Harrisonburg! Everything from the host to our dessert was phenomenal. Our server, Ivy, was fantastic. She knew exactly what food and drinks to recommend, knew how frequently to pop in and check on us, and was a delight to be around. Make this girl CEO or something like that. We ordered the crispy pork belly, crab cakes, brussel sprouts, charcuterie board, baguette & Brie, and the apple fritters and absolutely everything was delicious. Our cocktails were great (and we had a few!) and our dessert drinks were delicious as well. For drinks we ordered Monsters & Robots, Pomicide, Electric Funeral, a raspberry cider on tap, My Name is Mud, and Oogie Boogie Man. All of our cocktails were made perfectly!
The food was not good at all. We had the meatballs, crab cakes, tomato basil bisque soup, and deviled eggs. The tomato soup tasted like marinara sauce. The crab cakes were not well made. And everything else was not seasoned. Also, our server was not very attentive. It took him 10 minutes before he even came to the table to offer us waters. While every table around us was well attended to. Positives- the atmosphere is appealing and the drink menu is nice
I'm glad Harrisonburg is getting better options than just chains and such but wow, this food fell so short. The crabcakes were soggy with oil, the mussels were filled with sand, the meatballs had barely any seasoning in the meatball itself. The tuna tartar is probably the best thing we had and that was just okay. The pineapple ratio was too much and overpowered the fish. Service was decent, you could tell the bartender was over it but still at least checked on us so that's a positive. All in all it's a great view and a decent attempt at an elevated menu, lots of work to be done though.
being a chef myself, it’s not every day that i find a good meal worth writing about. ridge room really outdid themselves, though. me & my boyfriend got the crispy potatoes as an app, braised beef ragu & chicken duo for our entrees, & seasonal sorbet/blood orange posset for dessert, along w a few stunning cocktails. everything was well seasoned, well plated + outstanding flavor. very impressed. already plan to bring my mom to this little gem 💎 will be back. thank you to our server too. keep up the good work, chefs p.s - THANK YOU for providing soooo many gluten free options. i have a gluten allergy & felt so seen 🙏🏻😩
