Civil Libation Bistro - Restaurant in Virginia Beach - 2135 General Booth Blvd #132, USA

Our dinner was wonderful! Our waitress was very helpful with our choices of dishes and she did not steer us wrong. We enjoyed some of what I believe are their best menu options. From creative cocktails to a fantastic dessert! The scallops were delicious and delicately cooked. The beet salad was light and tangy. My steak was tender and full of flavor with a chimichurri that had a little kick. I loved the sweet potato fries with the cherry bbq dipping sauce! The cinnamon bun bread pudding was the icing on the cake! The cocktails were amazing and one wasn’t enough. The atmosphere is casual and they are kid friendly, but this is a high end foodie restaurant that is great for a date or a night out with friends.

I had the best time the food was immaculate. My friends and I had the donuts for starts and I ordered the crab omelette and it was so good! Great quantity of food! I also had two flower bomb drinks and some shots … You can tell I had some fun lol but the service was top tier the atomsphere is beautiful and I will definitely be back.

Response to Owner: Maybe a Pho inspired Devil Egg? Not sure if y'all have tried that before! Love coming here for brunch on the weekends with my husband and friends! They always have a deviled egg special going on for brunch and they're different every week. I always like the many different ways and flavors they have tried for them! Their food is delicious and the atmosphere is great. The staff is always so friendly as well!

Food and atmosphere was perfect. Server was attentive but not too pushy. Why don’t I eat here more? It can get busy so choose your time wisely or reserve. Hats off the the chef! Busy is good!

This is an amazing place! I'm so sad we didn't know about this place until today! The cocktail menu is AMAZING! My wife has a ton of food allergies and was able to eat here without having to ask for any modifications! We are in VA Beach every few months and will be making this a regular spot to stop at!

Had a great meal in a cool atmosphere. Dinner started out on a sour note. We were seated and then forgot about for 10 min. It was during the dinner rush. Jacqueline realized we were not being waited on, and she took action. We received excellent service from there on out and had a great time. GREAT EMPLOYEE!!!

My husband and I came here right after our courthouse wedding for a mini celebration, it was our first time ever coming here, and we loved it. The drinks and the food were great, it had a really nice atmosphere and the staff was incredibly friendly. April sat us and was super sweet and gave a very thorough explanation of the drink menu. Our waiter, Ricky, made a lot of great recommendations and was really cool to talk to. The food was all delicious, and I noticed there was a really great selection of vegetarian options. The drinks are delicious, and if you don't want to drink a lot or commit to a $13 cocktail, they offer "snaquiris" which are shot sized versions of their more popular cocktails. The tuna nachos for an appetizer is a must if you eat fish. I got the beet salad as my side with my chicken sandwich and it was fantastic. The bread pudding for dessert was also amazing. Definitely coming back here!

Fun restaurant, felt a lot trendier than what you’d expect to find around here! Great portion sizes. My mushroom and scallop risotto was very good, but just slightly undercooked. The drink menu looked amazing, will definitely be trying a cocktail next time.
