Tazaa and Isaacs are my current favorites.
If you're looking for pizza, New York Pizza in Vinton is the only choice. Grace's on Grandin is not bad, but can't touch New York Pizza.
Anyone posting in this thread is too young to eat at the Roanoker. I think there's like a minimum age requirement of 60 just to get in the door...
If you want to go to Blacksburg, we really like Souvlaki and Gillie's.

My fat ass needs to get to Luigis, seems like every time I mention it to the clam she wants to go to Chaba.
Yep. Elijah and I were talking about it the other day, he said the same thing I did. Took forever to get served, dont expect to get a refill any time remotely soon, and its just plain horrid service. But, the food is spot on. When someone knows how to cook a scallop properly, I will put up with a lot of bullshit.
I was in Bristol today for qualifying, and we stopped at a japanese steakhouse called Kobe. I figured it would be hard to fuck up a pretty common business model, however, I was wrong. I nearly gagged when I tried to eat the scallops I got, they were slimy and soft. Yes, marshmallows of the sea are gonna be soft, but if they are seared just right, OMG its fucking sexual.

Kobe off 11 right as you get into Bristol. Blew donkey balls.
Kobe in Blacksburg is great, the Hokie Sauce is eh, but their Ginger sauce is pretty damn good.
