2. Opus 9 Steakhouse

3. Pierce’s Pitt BBQ
For a good, informal southern experience, try this BBQ joint, a Williamsburg tradition since 1971. Expect a line; this place is popular with both tourists and locals. The J.C. Special, a pulled pork sandwich accompanied by fries, a drink, and a cookie, costs about $9.
