The Post

We went here for our anniversary dinner and the food and service were phenomenal. Hands down best shrimp & grits and collard greens I’ve ever had - I’d say it beats some of the best spots I’ve been to in the south! Our entrees were incredible and we genuinely had a fantastic time. Can’t wait to go back and try more on the menu.

A slightly upscale and unique spin on a smokehouse restaurant. Outdoor sidewalk and rear. Eggplant and other options for vegetarians. Average decor, but pleasant.

Great food, friendly staff, cute place for brunch and perfect for a date night, for dinner. The location is also perfect, right next to other restaurants, stores, and shops. My husband and I tried the ricotta toast and smoked meatballs and they were excellent. Not too heavy. Recommended 10/10

The space is gorgeous, with no attention to detail spared. The menu is diverse without being overwhelming, and you can tell so much thought and planning went into selecting each item. The drinks were flavorful and wine list was great! Staff from hostess, Server, Bartender and even chefs were wonderful to engage with and truly felt happy to have you there. Highly recommend and can't wait to go back.

My boyfriend and I visited last night for dinner. I had the small plate of shrimp and grits which was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend had the chopped brisket panini which was dry, no flavor between 2 slices of bread. There should have been some sauce, juice or dip as it was completely lacking in taste and so dry. The sandwich was not what was described on the menu. Overall we would visit again and my boyfriend would order something different. Perhaps the person cooking forgot the rest of the ingredients that were listed on the menu for the panini.

I have visited The Post in Trolley Square on two separate occasions, hoping for an improved experience the second time. Unfortunately, the most recent visit confirmed that this establishment prioritizes ambiance over food quality and service standards. During a Saturday business lunch, I ordered an espresso martini, only to be told that the bar was out of Baileys — a basic ingredient. For a restaurant that markets itself as a polished, modern eatery, this was the first red flag. We began with the burnt ends appetizer, which was entirely unseasoned. My guest selected the brisket sandwich, which was equally lacking in flavor. I opted for the southern chicken sandwich, but upon arrival, it had an unpleasant odor. When I raised the issue, the server discreetly acknowledged that the chicken may have been spoiled. I replaced the entrée with a salad, which was passable at best, and left most of it untouched. While the interior is visually appealing and well-designed, the food is consistently underwhelming — and in this case, potentially unsafe. After giving this restaurant two chances, I cannot in good faith recommend it, nor do I plan to return.

We were driving from New York to Virginia and pulled over for lunch and stopped at The Post. Good service, good food at what like a good local restaurant.

Meh....meat had no smoked flavor. Sandwiches were dry. Will not be going back. Drinks and service were fine. Cheddar grits were good.
