NEW HAPPY HOUR MENU!

As we approach the final stretch of summer, the Orzo family is excited to unveil our new Happy Hour Menu where alongside perennial favorites like Prosciutto Bruschetta, Caesar Salad and Bolognese, you’ll find dishes only available from 4:00 - 5:30pm, like Mussels Saganaki and Lamb Meatballs. Add in discounted mocktails, cocktails, and glasses of wine, and you’ll find yourself not only happy but, dare we say, ecstatic!

So, if you’ve skipped lunch and find yourself peckish earlier than usual, or you want a quick dinner before a show, or you just love a great meal at a great price, join us any night of the week for Orzo’s Happy Hour!

The full Happy Hour Menu of food & drinks is posted to our website. Link in Bio!

Hey Fans!  It’s that time again, so grab your passport and travel with us as we embark this time to the Amalfi Coast! 

Originally settled by the Romans who built villas along this dramatic coastline, the Amalfi Coast was once one of Italy’s great maritime republics alongside Venice and Genoa. A devastating storm destroyed the port of Amalfi in 1343 reducing it to a collection of sleepy fishing villages. That is until the 1850s when the coast road was completed which brought many travelers and eventually celebrities to the area. Since then the Amalfi Coast has become one of Italy’s great tourist destinations.

Located just south of Naples and Rome, the cuisine of the Amalfi Coast is built around fresh seafood plucked from the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Gulf of Salerno. The Amalfi Coast is also known for its production of lemons which thrived on the steep terraced hillsides and in the volcanic influenced soils of nearby Mt. Vesuvius. These lemons became an economic lifeline for the region after the storm of 1343 and are the inspiration for the regional beverage, Limoncello.

Our chefs offer this exciting menu to showcase the sparkling flavors of the sea and the fresh summer produce of central Virginia.  We hope that you’ll stop by and be transported.

Pack your bags, our new Passport Menu starts tomorrow! What is our next summer destination?

Think seafood, ripe tomatoes, fresh lemons and aromatic herbs, light pasta dishes and a grilled whole fish. A meal enjoyed outside, finished off sipping a Limoncello. See you soon for this coastal cuisine!

Our Provençal Grilled Fish of the Night is accompanied by white bean puree, braised fennel, and Sauce ‘Vierge.’
This bright and zesty “virgin sauce” is an uncooked blend of olive oil, lemon, fresh herbs, garlic & sun dried tomatoes, spiced with toasted coriander.

Popularized in the 1970s by chef Michel Guérard, this vibrant sauce is commonly served warm or cold over grilled fish, seafood, or pasta, reflecting a shift toward lighter nouvelle cuisine.
