Norfolk, VA Restaurant of the week, Price: $14.64

Are you in search of new connections? Meet others in the city over fun food. This edition is for fellow wrestling fans!

Calling all wrestling fans and foodies! 🍱

Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun night out. You sign up, and we book the restaurant. A different day, a different location! Meet other locals while supporting local businesses.

Our mission is to host dinners in multiple cities to bring people together while supporting locally owned businesses. Each micro-gathering is intended to be for 6 people or less. Check out our feature in Eventbrite’s 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.

This is not directly associated with the restaurant of the week, but rather based on a table reservation via Opentable or Resy or other online platforms. The pin 📌 on the map on Eventbrite is just a placeholder as each outing takes place at a different location. Restaurants are shared with registrants only. Feel free to contact us with questions prior to signing up.

How does it work?

After you register, you’ll be emailed an introduction message including a quick questionnaire regarding age, hobbies, interests, and dietary preferences.

*Your registration does not include your individual food and drink purchases but simply commits you to not bailing on the group! And you support our team’s endeavors.

*These outings are intended to help people make friends. These are not dating gatherings.

🧍‍♂️🧍‍♀️

Our vision is simple: we take the no gimmicks approach to networking. No need for yet another app to take up space on your phone – just four walls and a roof and good food for people to connect 🙂 We coordinate with you directly, human-to-human. 🤖

Testimonials:

“It was so great! I will share pictures of food and if you need anywhere to share the experience! You did it better than AI! All of us were from different parts of the world, somehow having similar interests even though the age was different. Super cozy and friendly and amazing. We had one birthday (Persephone) so we gave her a cake!Thanks for hosting and looking forward to more events!” -Korina from Munich

Hey, just wanted to give an update months later. I ended up forming a long term friend from this event and am very grateful. Thank you for helping set it up!” – Daritza from Austin
