Ilo Bistro
Ilo Bistro is a stylish neighborhood restaurant nestled in Norfolk’s historic Freemason district, located at 509 Botetourt Street. Under the direction of Chef Zack Close—whose résumé includes work with Daniel Boulud in New York and leadership at Norfolk’s Glass Light Hotel—this bistro leans into a seasonal, locally sourced menu blending French and Mediterranean influences. Patrons can expect dishes like seafood, steaks, pasta, oysters, and small-plate offerings, all prepared with care and creativity. The ambiance is intimate yet inviting, with limited seating (around 30–40 total, including bar) and a focus on neighborhood hospitality. Dinner service runs Tuesday through Saturday (5 pm–9 pm midweek, extending to 10 pm on weekend), with the bar available for walk-ins.

Omar's Carriage House
The building is a historic site in Norfolk. The Original Carriage House was built in the early 1840’s. Its patrons then were horses. From the first floor, if you look up at the center of the room, you’ll see the large opening where hay used to be loaded into carriages. A curious old legend lingers of a ghost that lurks the Carriage House halls from days of dinners past. It is said to be the wispy ectoplasm of a pre-Civil War slave with a penchant for playful service. Menus move, the lights dim, friends hear funny things…and wine mingles the soul. Who knows, maybe there’s more to the savory vapors of good food and the sentient spirit of good friends than meets the eye!
