The Downtown Grille management and staff would like to thank you for your patronage. For 21 years, it has been an honor to host and serve the Charlottesville community, and we appreciate being a part of your celebrations and special occasions over the years.

With heavy hearts, we have decided to cease operations on the historic downtown mall. The COVID-19 pandemic has created an unprecedented economic hardship, and we feel that closing the restaurant permanently is the best way to move forward.

We sincerely hope that our patrons remain safe and stay home during this pandemic. Charlottesville restaurants have been especially affected by COVID-19, and we encourage everyone to support the Charlottesville Restaurant Community Fund.
