I have started researching lunch spots on our trips back to New England. The trip does not seem as boring when there is a great lunch to look forward to after 4 hours of driving. One Block West was a little off the beaten path (thank goodness for GPS) but well worth the drive. When we arrived in Winchester, it... More

personal attention, great food and staff. Local growers provide alot of the fare. Extensive wine list, seasonal special dinners using local vendors. Off the beaten path of the chains. More

We ate at One Block West early on a Saturday night, after a day sightseeing in Winchester and skipping lunch. They serve a different menu every night, positing it online at about opening time. We found that the menu varied very little from the day before, so getting an idea of what might be on offer isn’t difficult. The real... More

One Block West has a highly original menu, that is reliably delicious, with beautiful presentation. Excellent staff, a bit pricy, but worth it for that special dinner out. More

I would recommend O.B.W. to everyone that is in search of a... More

Local produce and local wines, with imagination and top quality presentation. Some day we'll manage to attend a Thursday chef's table, but even the regular menu is good enough to keep... More

Fresh, local ingredients means a changing menu based on what is available and good. So it doesn't matter what you get in that it is all great. I had... More

It's a pleasant drive from DC through the rolling Virginia countryside. Chef Ed consistently serves up creations that are a delight to both the eyes and the palate.... More
