About this place
O'Neill's Grill has been a beloved locally-owned fixture in Harrisonburg for over 15 years, serving up fresh, never-frozen comfort food and drinks in a welcoming atmosphere. You'll find dishes made with local ingredients, a commitment to scratch cooking, and a passion for community. This establishment prides itself on creating almost everything from scratch, including in-house smoked BBQ and their own aged and hand-cut steaks, which are perfected over 28 days. For burger enthusiasts, the 'Burg's Original 50/50 Bacon Burger is a local favorite, and their famous chicken "Thumbs & Toes" are served with a choice of 11 homemade sauces. Beyond the savory main courses, O'Neill's Grill is known for its award-winning Cookie Skillet dessert, with dough made fresh every morning. Vegetarian and gluten-free preferences are also catered to. The bar offers 26 beers on tap, along with a selection of wines and cocktails, many sourced locally. While it's a great place to watch a game on one of their 40+ TVs, especially JMU games, O'Neill's Grill is more than just a sports bar; it's a versatile spot for family dinners, catching up with friends, or enjoying a casual date night. Owners Tim and Mo are often seen interacting with guests, reinforcing the restaurant's community-focused ethos, which includes supporting local organizations and military families.
