The success of Mo Boulftali’s restaurant not only comes from the repeat customers that come back year after year for the fine food, but also from the generosity that Mr. Boulftali gives back to the community. Putting it simply, Mo Boulftali states that, “the reason his business is a success is because of the community.”

      Horse riding and viewing is everywhere--in Toano, horses prevail!

Once in Toano, take Va 60 and turn  left at the Farmer's market on Forge Road. For the next several miles, there is one horse farm after horse farm. Many offer trail rides; some have competions that one can watch; some board horses.

One stable that does all of the above is Stonehouse Stables at 2116-A Forge Rd. Toano. 757-566-0666   https://stonehousestables.com/about/
