Spoke to the MarsCon guest liason. She suggested the following:
--- Quote ---The closest retaurant is probably the Outback steakhouse. But there are a number of other chain restaurants nearby. The hotel is on Richmond Road, which is essentially the main drag for hotels and restaurants in Williamsburg. If you want something local instead of a chain, there's a great Italian place called Sal's not too far down the road, but I'm not sure they take reservations. You can always check. Even though it is January, that place gets busy on Saturday nights. If you like Oriental food, there is a local favorite called Mongolian Barbecue, which is quite popular and not too expensive. It's a buffet, and they can definitely handle large groups. Hope that helps! If not, let me know, and I'll try and think of some others.

Sal's. GREAT cheap Italian food. We never had a wait in their old location...might be different now. Although Mongolian Barbeque was always a hoot too. That weekend will be busy...it's also move in weekend for W&M's spring semester.
Aside from those two...there's not a lot of good local places. There's a ton of chains. I know a couple of good lunch places. And there's twenty gazillion pancake houses for breakfast.
