1. C & O Restaurant

DOWNTOWN.   Keep your eyes peeled or you might miss this nondescript gem, which is quite possibly one of Charlottesville's top eateries. The telltale Pepsi sign exists as a holdover from when the building served as a diner where railroad workers could board for the night. Inside, rustic plank-wood flooring and walls remain, and cozy dining areas include a dimly lit mezzanine, a Western-style bistro-bar, an elegant upstairs dining room (where the old sleeping quarters were), and a hidden patio garden in the rear. Featured menu items include pan-seared veal liver with Pommery mustard sauce, Dijon-and-Tabasco-marinated Cuban steak, honey rum-glazed pork loin with adobe sauce, and sweet corn tamales. Private parties may reserve the C & O's gallery space, which is decorated with original artwork. Reservations are strongly recommended.   (© 10Best)
