"We greatly enjoyed 1609 at Colonial Downs for atmosphere and food during the horse races in late July and again in late August 2021. We reserved the same table for both of our excursions. Hannah was extremely polite, personable and attentive both times. The colossal meatball which she recommended was delicious: a good combination of meats and perfect sauce.. With that and the bbq chicken sliders (also yummy), we were too full for dessert. The sliders had a wonderful sauce, caramelized onions and tangy slaw. It was simply perfect to have the reserved table. There is a fee for the table which we reserved online in advance. We didn't mind the fee as it gave us excellent access to the shaded balconies to watch the races during the heat of the day..and a base to come back to as we choose to watch some of the races down at the track/rails. Hannah welcomed us back when we returned from being at the track and checked in with us to see if we needed more water, drinks, etc. Overall a fantastic way to spend the day at the horse races AND enjoy excellent food!"
