With its intimate and genteel manner, this tiny plantation kitchen (circa 1735) makes you feel right at home. The portions are large and the presentation flawless for the contemporary American cuisine based around game and seafood. But seating is limited—there are only six tables in the two-story building. Open daily except Monday for dinner. Reservations recommended. $$$. Most major credit cards. Powhatan Plantation, 3601 Ironbound Road, Williamsburg.
