The Rockefeller Room – Cool, Brat Pack Hip and Delicious…Not Sure…Check Out the Menu:
Looking for the spot to eat in Williamsburg? Maybe you have heard of The Rockefeller Room, a “culinary adventure in modern fine-dining”, maybe you have not…but after this post you will want to visit or visit again. The Rockefeller Room is fine dining with a dash of cool. The decor is Brat Pack hip; be ready to be transported. And on select evenings live music is an added experience (scroll down to bottom of this post for the music schedule).
The Williamsburg Inn’s signature dining experience is the Rockefeller Room, and it celebrates contemporary fine dining, while paying homage to the evolution of American cuisine. Which translates to, it is the place to go to celebrate a special event or just enjoy a really wonderful meal while sitting in rounded, tufted elegance.
The new menu, that debuted last year features regional dishes like Virginia Crab Cakes and Oysters Abby with Tangier Island Oysters. Along with standards like the Rockefeller Steaks, Loch Duart Salmon and Lamb Rack that are waiting for you nightly. And about that menu…here is a link so you can look through the whole menu before you arrive!
Chef Travis Brust, Executive Chef, Williamsburg Inn explains that “..in the Rockefeller Room, the experience is fine food plated on china, accompanied by silver and elegant glassware. The experience is comfortable and attentive, but it’s not intimidating. We welcome “resort casual” attire at the Rockefeller Room, and serve a menu full of great stories.”

The Rockefeller Room is open from 5:30 pm – 8:00 pm and since it is on the other side of the wall from the Social Terrace, you might plan to meander outside after dinner to the expansive outdoor patio.
Once there, you will find large comfortable outdoor chairs and couches waiting for you to enjoy drinks including local beers, wine and craft cocktails at the new outdoor bar. There are shareable dishes and entrees nightly, and live music on weekends. All this and the evening air on the aptly named Social Terrace will close out your Rockefeller Room evening.
