Richmond Republic proves to be a culinary hotspot in Staten Island, offering a delightfully diverse menu. While the Birria Tacos were satisfactory, the true stars of the meal were the sumptuous nachos and quesadillas. Each bite of the nachos presented a harmonious blend of textures and flavors, and the quesadillas were a gooey, cheesy delight with just the right kick. It’s the kind of comforting, indulgent fare that makes for a memorable dining experience. Richmond Republic nails the casual American gastropub vibe with these dishes, making it a must-visit for anyone craving hearty, flavorful comfort food.

Overall experience was really great. The food was delicious. The atmosphere is awesome, but being that we were a family was on the louder side. The waitress was lovely.

So we were here a few months back and we returned. The food was delicious other than the app. We had steak fajita, chicken fajita, burrata salad with avocado and burger. All were yummy and filling. Nice portion for the fajitas but they only give 3 tiny wraps. They might want to get bigger wraps or give more bc 3 dlwas not enough. We had the Brussel sprouts for app. Only complaint, they were greasy this time. Last time they were crispy and delicious so we were disappointed with that. We also ordered guacamole with fajitas and that never came out. Even after the waitress asked the kitchen again. One GIANT TURN OFF, A girl comes around and asks to take your picture. This is new. We assumed it was for their social media or something. 10 minutes later she comes back with our pictures in frames and wants to see them for $20, what??? It felt like a Times Square scam. Of course now my husband buys one bc she lays them all out in front of you and you are uncomfortable. Richmond Republic.... GET RID OF THIS. We came to have a nice family meal, this is not the place to be scammed into buying a picture! Atmosphere would of been a 5 if it wasn't for this.

Seated with reservations for 8 - Apps were passable as for as flavor . The server was a bit flighty asking what was ordered for three guests as 5 of 8 entrees were served. The fish and chips I had were flavorless frozen garbage - fries were cold too , the fajita platter was flavorless dry and the tortillas were cold , ribs were bland and a bit rubbery, I could go on but - the idea is here. This mediocre experience won't happen again for any if us . Stay away .

Great atmosphere playing new music to discover. Food is great. Burger and fries are top notch and dessert caps off a great meal. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys a nice place to watch sports or enjoy an evening with friends out.

One of our favorite places to eat and drink. Love the atmosphere. Music always playing. Good timesParking: Little difficult to find parking on the weekend other than that not so badWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair easy access
Expensive drinks and there was no alcohol in them. I was very disappointed as I had high hopes.

I met up with a few of my friends on Saturday night. They arrived before I did, so I was told there was a $5 cover from the ugly fat bald guy at the door. I hand him a $20, but he only gives me $10 back. I tell him he shortchanged me, but he said it's $10 for men and $5 for women. I walk to the bar and ask my friends, all guys, how much they were charged, they said they all paid $5 cover. For whatever reason, the ugly fat bald guy collecting money at the door decided to up the price on me. As much as I hated doing this, I purposely did not tip any of the bartenders who served me drinks. I feel really bad taking it out on them, but when your establishment treats patrons unfairly, prepare for me being a douchebag.

Food was mediocre, ambiance was nice - but the service was miserable. The waitress barely checked in on us and took FOREVER to do anything. We had to get the bus boy to get her for us to order drinks (by the way i had to change my order FOUR TIMES because they "didn't have the ingredients"), order food, desserts, etc. There were only 3 other groups that were dining at the same time, no reason for such a delay in service. I definitely would not be returning and do not recommend this restaurant.
