The story

Eurasia Cafe: New American & Seafood in Virginia Beach | Wine Spectator Award

A Neighborhood Gem Near the Oceanfront

Since 2007, Eurasia Cafe has been a fixture on Laskin Road, offering chic New American cuisine with a distinctly coastal soul. The restaurant describes itself as a "neighborhood gem near the oceanfront," a place where the energy of Virginia Beach meets a refined, welcoming dining room. Here, the focus is on fresh seafood and locally sourced produce, prepared with global accents that keep the menu inventive without losing its sense of place.

The Kitchen and the Cellar

The kitchen is led by powerhouse chefs who take a hands-on approach—rolling pasta dough from scratch, sourcing ingredients from nearby farms, and crafting seasonal specials that change with what’s available. The result is a menu that balances comfort and surprise: think PEI chorizo mussels in a jalapeño cream, a furikake-seared tuna with miso butter, or a sweet tea-brined pork chop with hot honey.

The wine program is equally serious. Eurasia has earned the Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence for its deep, sommelier-crafted list. Alongside an extensive selection of Champagnes, Burgundies, and Napa Cabs, the bar pours a celebrated roster of spirits, including one of the most exclusive bourbon lists at the beach. It’s a place where a casual night out can easily turn into a memorable tasting experience.

What to Expect

The atmosphere is relaxed but polished—a setting that works as well for a special occasion as it does for a weeknight dinner. The menu leans American and seafood-focused, with enough variety to satisfy a range of cravings. Guests regularly return for the lamb entree, the gnocchi, and the happy hour, when appetizers are half off and the bartenders show off their craft. Whether you’re stopping in for a bowl of Thai tomato basil soup or settling in for a full evening of wine pairings, Eurasia delivers consistent, thoughtful fare that keeps its regulars coming back.
