My husband and I went to Swan Terrace to celebrate our anniversary. It has a nice ambience. The food was delicious, and the staff was attentive. The manager even came over to say hi. When he found out that we were celebrating our anniversary, he sent over a dessert compliment of the kitchen with "Happy Anniversary" written on the plate. That was a very nice touch.
Best Wine Dinner in Virginia. An amazing "Mouthwatering Monday" at Swan Terrace. It seemed to just get better & better all paired with wines. First, Champagne Reception with mini Bison Philly Cheesesteak and cute Crab BLT's, Then grilled Pheasant & Rabbit, Duck and even Fried Oysters with pickled watermelon. I cant even remember everything served. All for $59.00! Seriously this would cost no less than $100 anywhere else if you could find food that good. WE ARE DEFINITELY GOING BACK for another dinner. Regular dinner menu is different. Is a la carte and you can build your own 3 course menu for $29. Wine dinner was a steal for 7 courses and served by probably the best servers we have had in VB to date.
Amazing food and fantastic service. Really talented chef there now that rocks! Love the atmosphere and the grounds of the Inn too.
Sunday brunch. We were the first to arrive at 11 am, but the dining room quickly filled up with the after-church crowd. The food was excellent...good selection of what seemed to be a New Orleans themed menu, including sauteed-to-order crabcakes, cajun salmon cakes, corn chowder, roasted porkloin, beef flank steak, oysters, steamed shrimp, and an array of salads and desserts. Service by a Regent student was pleasant and polite, but a little more attentiveness to keeping water and coffee flowing would have been appreciated. At $30 per person, the quality of the experience was worth it.

No Regrets; and I'm persnickity !. In one word; Amazing. Seriously, if you are looking for outstanding service, staff, food, atmosphere and overall ambiance; look no further. It is a bit pricey, but keep in mind you are paying for high quality food that will not disappoint.
We arrived last night (Tuesday) for out 5:30 reservation. Nick and I met there after work (we were both in jeans and sweaters; underdressed but the Terrace was today's goal:). The staff was incredibly warm and inviting, extremely knowledgeable of their menu and procedures, and did not turn their nose up to our Groupon (Thanks Lauren!). It was our first time there and we will definitely be back. The Food: We started with a crab bisque that was delish. Sweet, creamy, hot bisque with LARGE chunks of fresh, sweet crab meat. Freshly baked, warm Olive bread and Asiago cheese bread served with a pretty rosette of room temp herb butter. (I could have made a meal of the soup and bread... YUM!). Nick had the smokey yet delicate and tender beef brisket with homemade mashed potatoes. I had the lobster ravioli's with 2 large shrimp and 1 large, perfectly seared scallop. I paired my dinner with a glass of house red cab sav; and Nick (so true to form) ordered a Pitcher of Beer (which they kindly wrapped in a white linen~ it was actually really funny/cute). While I craved a selection from their (no doubt made from scratch) desert menu; we could barely breathe.
After we finished our wonderful meal, our expert server offered a relaxing visit to the lounge next door. We finished our beer, played a complimentary game of pool (billiards), watched the news, and departed.
After Groupon for $40; our total bill (including a $17 tip =23%), was only $50. For the atmosphere, quality of food, exceptional warm, friendly and knowledgeable staff; this is hand's down one of the best experiences in Hampton Roads.
Awesome restaurant. Never crowded. Romantic. Always excellent
Romantic. I should have posted this a while ago... I must say that the outside setting at Swan Terrace is amazing. The wife and I had a date night there. Sat by the fire pit, walked around the lake, and got chased by a Swan LOL. This is a great place with top quality food and atmosphere. I will say its not a low price point but you get more than what you pay for.
I always love made to order omelets. The baked potatoes and grits were great. The price to add on breakfast is worth the price when added to your room. You cannot beat it. The views are beautiful over looking the courtyard and lake. The staff are very friendly. I most definitely will get breakfast here again.
An elegantly laid out dining room. I stopped by for breakfast the last couple of mornings. It's basically a buffet with a very limited menu. The food is delicious, especially the omelet station where the chef cooks to order omelets for you. The eggs are fluffy and cooked just right with the fillings of your choosing. The staff is nice and takes care of your needs. My only negative is the efficiency of the operation. Since it's a buffet, they should probably charge you on the way in or way out, which would free up the server to do other things. Other than that, I really liked the place and will probably eat here again on my next visit. Thank you, Swan Terrace, for providing an elegant place to dine while staying at the Founders Inn.

We met there for the buffet after my fathers funeral. Absolutely gorgeous! Beautifully decorated for Christmas. Excellent salad bar, entree and side dish choices, as well as a lovely dessert section.
I enjoy eating and lounging at the Swan Terrance, and I think the ducks and geese love when I visit the restaurant. The atmosphere is quiet, and the scenery is beautiful. I love the salad station; always fresh. The food is delicious; I try my best not to eat out too much, but since I have been eating here, I eat there at least twice a week. I enjoyed eating there on Easter, and it was an over-the-top experience. I am thinking about hosting my graduation dinner there.
Had a delicious brunch. The food was so good. Well seasoned. Large selection of food and fresh omelettes that they make right in front of you. You select the amount of eggs and ingredients that you want. Fruit was fresh and sweet. Had the sweet tea. That was also delicious. Didn't really care for the pineapple Mimosa. No pineapple taste. I wish I could've taken some carrot cake with me it was so good. Can't wait to go back!
I wasn't satisfied with how our meal arrived. Crab dip wasn't very hot, my steak was over done and my granddaughter's was under done. They took her steak back to cook some more and we were all done eating before she got her steak back. Her steak was comped but our experience was no where near last year. I was planning to make this annual dinner for my wife's birthday and our anniversary but am now giving it second thoughts.
Put aside the fact that the Founder's Inn Conference Center has the absolute advantage of coveted location ( Indian River Rd just off of I-64 ). Their service is consistently impeccable. And the food is great - from portion size to taste.
Wonderful old world. Quiet atmosphere but very kid friendly. Take your best photo shoot with your teen for southern ambience. So close to everything in the area..
Everyday they have a great buffet with options for everyone.
Oatmeal, eggs, grits, omlettes, waffles, salmon, assorted Meats, breakfast pastries and of course coffee with flavor creamer options. If the food doesn't grab you the gun eclectic furniture will!
Get Emily as your server! She is the best lady and wonderful service!
Our family party of 12 enjoyed a festive, lovely, delicious, dinner buffet on Christmas Eve at the Swan Terrace! The service was excellent!
