Reviews for Summers Roof and Cellar in Abingdon, VA
Maybe my expectations are high because I\'m am Atlanta girl, but had great hopes for this spot.\nFirst, sign in elevator warning... of short staff and deck closed due to earlier rain...\nTable for 2...very very small table\nTook a minute before waitress cameto table but she was wonderful and service was good considering warning.\nAtmosphere nice...raw wood and white paint.\nUnfortunately, menu pretentious with very over priced items. It was no surprise to see so many people ordering the $13burger option.\nWe had filet and salmon\nFilet highly seasoned with salt, came out cooked more medium than medium rare asordered, but otherwise good.\nSalmon...the bacon horseradish topping had zero flavor which was a bit disappointing, salmon fishyand rice with raw carrots and onions..over all zero flavor dish.\nSplit a Caesar salad..which was excellent , verylight!\nWaitress brought us the creme Brule on the house due to an issue with the complimentary dinner rolls (butter wrappercooked into roll, realized while chewing a bite) the creme Brule was done very well.\nMaybe some new restaurant bumps?? We mayonly be back for cocktails by the outside fire pit...but then again when we got our bill we were charged 75 cents for a lime formy drink, lol...once again pretentious? Overall $170 for dinner...maybe we will just drive to atlanta. Read more
Review Edit 11/2/22:\nWe went back this evening after the staff at Summers reached out. This time we sat in the cellar, which... was absolutely elegant. The waitress and hostess were also wonderful. But the food?\n\nTo say we were ?blown away? would be aninjustice to the chef. This place is simply incredible. It?s downright ridiculous how good the scallops were. The salmon was anexperience that genuinely made me question my atheist beliefs. It was absolutely divine.\n\nI?ve eaten at some top-notch placesbefore, but these guys set a new standard. If the chef keeps this level of inspiration and brilliance up, I would not at all besurprised to see this place awarded Michelin credentials. Simply fantastic. We will absolutely be back at the firstopportunity.\n\nOriginal Review:\nVery disappointed in our experience this evening. We had a reservation for the inside diningroom, upstairs. The ambiance was quite nice and the corn chowder was absolutely wonderful.\n\nThe reason for the two stars isthe speed of service. It took roughly 40 minutes for a single cup of soup to come out. We ended up just leaving a $20 bill andheading out before our food came. Admittedly, the waitress did catch us with our food as we were entering the elevator to leave,but, as we were hitting the hour and a bit of change mark, and we?re already walking into the elevator, we left.\n\nOverall verydisappointed.

Wonderful food, atmosphere, and fantastic wine selection.
Absolutely beautiful place, enchanting atmosphere, world class wines! Made 3 visits to the rooftop, received excellent wine... advice to match my personal preferences. Was hoping for more upscale dining, too bad the menu does not fit the venue. Read more
