I searched Tools > Options, but where in VS10 can I turn off or change the default highlighting for the new Razor view on the @nuggets in ASP.NET MVC 3?
Where can I change the Asp.net MVC 3 Razor syntax highlighting in VS10?

Razor only adds one entry to Fonts & Colors, "Razor Code". That controls the background color given to Razor Code nuggets. The rest of the colors are the same as the C#/VB colors. The "@" character itself and Razor keywords like "model" and "section" use the same color as the ASPX "<%" tag ("HTML Server-Side Script", thanks to another Andrew for digging up the specific entry).
If you'd rather we had separate entries for some of these, please email us and suggest that: [email protected]
Slight clarification - the
@ and other keywords were the HTML Server-Side Script entry under Fonts and Colors. I had a hard time finding it. –

Don't forget to restart VS after you have made the change. –

VS2013 appears to have change this from "Razor Code" to "HTML Server Code Block Background". –

In my VS 2013, after changing this 'HTML Server Code...', the razor file didn't re-highlight until I scrolled the relevant section out of view and back again, just a caveat in case it doesn't seem to work on yours either! –

Visual Studio's options were showing me a background colour that did not match the one actually used in the editor; that is, it was lying to me. This was confusing as the colour in the Options dialogue was the one I actually wanted to use. So I had to set it to a dummy colour, apply the change, then reset it to my intended colour. –

@Pantechnicon I have the opposite problem. The highlighting is lost when scrolling the window in VS2015. –

In Visual Studio 2019, it's also
HTML Server-Side Script. What a non-intuitive name! >:-6 –
Metaplasia The syntax highlighting for razor is based on the c#/VB default highlighting. So you'll have to change those settings to see any changes in a cshtml file highlighting. Might be a good feature request...I don't know.
In Visual Studio 2015
Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Font and colors
The name of the property is HTML Razor Code Background Change the Item background to the color you like.
