Virginia's extensive history means its lucky residents have ample opportunities to learn about the past. While many such sites function as museums, there are quite a few exceptions to the rule. One such case is a delicious restaurant that happens to be located inside a Victorian Mansion. Tucked away in Christiansburg, Virginia, the Summit Restaurant is a dining experience for the books. Take a look at what's in store:
If you were passing by the Summit Restaurant, you might think this historic building was some sort of museum or residence to be admired from the outside.
Yet this 1888 Victorian Recreation House is much more than a testament to history. Inside awaits a gourmet dining experience housed in the most exquisite setting.
Amid pristine and authentic nineteenth-century decor, diners are invited to step back in time while enjoying made-from-scratch menu items.
You may feel like you're in the company of royalty when you spot the presentation of the food, which rivals the exquisite ambiance.
For starters, you will definitely want to sample an order of the fried oysters.
Next, you'll enjoy choosing an entree from a list of gourmet and local options such as the duck breast and green beans photographed below.
Of course, you can skip all of it and opt for a simple dessert. The made-to-order creme brulee is absolutely divine, especially when served with a cup of coffee or tea.
In the summer, diners will love the opportunity to eat outside with the gorgeous backdrop of an authentic Victorian mansion.
Those who dine at the Summit Restaurant will remember both the menu and the surroundings of this gorgeous and unique Virginia eatery.
The Summit Restaurant is located at 95 College St, Christiansburg, VA 24073. For additional information, be sure to visit the restaurant website here.
