REVIEWS
“The Black Hen Restaurant, located on Jackson Street in downtown Blacksburg, is a favorite of mine for an upscale dinner. The service is as impeccable as the food, which is locally sourced where possible and featured in an ever-changing selection of unique dishes.”
“It’s the perfect dinner spot for innovative cuisine… There’s a nod to gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian and lactose-intolerant for appetizers and entrees, as well. Fine wine and beer choices are abundant, and saving room for dessert is practically imperative. Linda’s pastry creations have been lauded in Bon Appetit Magazine as being “the jackpot at this [MGM] restaurant,” referring at the time to Michael Mina’s Sea Blue Restaurant at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas. Speaking from experience, indeed, her desserts are divine.”

“ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! Each bite melted in your mouth and everything was cooked to perfection. I'm from the DC area and I felt as if I were at a 5 star restaurant and not in Blacksburg. Every dessert was homemade, handcrafted and left you speechless with each bite.” - Morgan, Google Review, 5 Stars
