The Dahlia

Great food, great price, decent beer. This place was a pleasant surprise, and don't forget about additional seating downstairs!

In my top ten as far as terrible service I've gotten in my life, the Dahlia was fairly disappointing. We were there two and a half hours for entrées only. We got our own silverware, had to ask three times for a glass of water, and never got iced tea refills. I would have loved a second beer, but was never asked and it has already taken almost two hours to get the first beer.
The Dahlia gets two stars even though we never got our salads and were charged for then anyway, because those were the best shrimp and grits I've ever had... and I've had a lot of shrimp and grits.

This is my favorite restaurant in Lynchburg. Their specials are awesome and Brandon (bar-keep in the cellar) is a top notch server/barman. Definitely worth checking out!
