The Whole Ox is an amazing local butcher and a delicious stop. It has been the best for over ten years. The sourcing cannot be matched for steaks, chicken, and more. It offers fresh meats, vegetables, wine, and beer. The food is outstanding, with the best burger in all of Virginia. The fried chicken sandwich, grilled cheese, and curry chicken salad are thick, hearty, and delicious. The hospitality is unmatched. It is busy with locals and provides high quality stuff.
We stopped for lunch and the food was very good. Both of us liked our burgers. The fries were crisp and hot.
Seating is very limited.

Found this place randomly while walking around. 100000/10 service and was very accommodating of my allergies. Food was great and beef tallow fries were awesome; Would give a 10/5 if I could

The food we had was absolutely phenomenal. The chicken sandwich was by far the best chicken sandwich I had ever had. The burger is in contention for the best ever. The fries were also very good. Very reasonable prices for the made to order food. The fresh meats are quite pricey, but they all look very high quality.
