Great place to see music music practically every night of the week. The food is good, and the kitchen is open late. They don't have beer on tap, which is a negative, but they do have a pretty good selection of beer in cans and bottles. I found stuff I was happy with.

JV's Restaurant serves as a musical treasure that offers both fantastic performances and delicious dining options. The band performance brought me to the restaurant but the extraordinary buffalo wings became the main attraction.

Lorraine is doing a stellar job of carrying on her dad's tradition and bringing in the good music and providing tasty grub and beer and wine with the excellent fun atmosphere of JV's. Always good times at JV's!

Visited twice now, both experiences were great. Live bands Saturday and Sunday both playing a good mix of classic rock/folk songs. Tried the desserts of chocolate mouse and Peanut butter pie. So impressed we bought a T-shirt. Great place, not pretentious, live music since 1947. Must be doing something right!

I really enjoyed this place. The food was great. I wanted a low calorie healthy dinner which they had and it was delicious. They served beer and wine only which was ok, I had a chardonnay. I would love to have had a margarita but wine was good enough. Service was great as well but the best part was the live jazz/blues band. Excellent entertainment!

Absolutely amazing and memorable experience I had at JV's Restaurant & Bar. I live in Pittsburgh. I was on a solo road trip to Raleigh and I stayed at a hotel nearby. I decided to venture out on a Wednesday night to explore the area and was shocked at how cool this place was. You don't really find low-key spots like this one anymore. There were folk artists playing music, which really set the tone for a great vibe. The bars aesthetic is so pleasing and the bartender was so sweet! I'm so happy I stopped by JV's while I was in Virginia for a day. Hopefully one day I'll be in the area again and can make a visit!

This was my first visit, and I was so impressed. The band, Accidental Charm, was amazing, and Tom's guitar skills were phenomenal! 🤩 I'll definitely return to see them perform again.

I've been coming here for years. This is a dive bar with great live music and OK food. The music is always great. The bar serves bottle/can beer and wine only but no tap beer or liquor service. I'd love to see them double down on a great plate of nachos (theirs are dry and tasteless) as well as offer a draft beer option but if they did that, they wouldn't be a dive bar now would they? I've come back here over and over again over the year to see fantastic bands. My advice is absolutely come for the music but eat before you go or at least know what you're getting. Have some beer or wine, dance with a partner or all by yourself because it's all OK here. Folks are friendly, the bartenders are great folks, the patrons are easy going and nobody gets rowdy in a bad way. Drop any pretentiousness you have when you walk in and plan to have a great time and enjoy the show.

I recently visited JV Restaurant and had an absolute blast! The highlight of the evening was definitely the live performance by the all-girl band, whose energetic and soulful tunes created an unforgettable atmosphere. The music perfectly complemented the vibrant ambiance of the venue, making it a fun and lively dining experience. The food was just as impressive—deliciously prepared and beautifully presented, with a menu that offered a range of creative and flavorful dishes. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that every moment of the evening was enjoyable. Overall, JV Restaurant delivered on all fronts—great food, fantastic live music, and top-notch service. I left with a smile on my face and will definitely be returning for another memorable night out.
