“Tabbi took great care of me during my lunch here! I asked if it would be possible to make the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad menu item into a wrap and the chef delivered! Great food and accommodating service.”
“Great place to grab good food and great margaritas, Grant and Sam were amazing!!”
“My friends and I had a fantastic time indulging in multiple rounds of Lemon Drop Martinis, along with delicious appetizers like cornbread and wings, followed by a delightful dinner. Our server was exceptional, making the evening even more special as we celebrated my friend's birthday. To our surprise, they treated my friend to a complimentary glass of Prosecco adorned with a birthday candle. We couldn't resist sharing our entrees, which included smoked brisket meatballs, pan-roasted shrimp, and fried catfish, all of which were incredibly tasty. The portions were generous enough for sharing, and the fried catfish was simply the best we've ever tasted, prompting us to order some to take home. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for a cozy evening with friends or family!”
“Excellent and knowledgeable service by Rae for dinner!! Lightning fast service. Delicious apps and pasta entrees. Highly recommended.”

“Wonderful evening by the river with our new friend Cece as our server! The food was yummy. My husband had fish and I had shrimp... so beautifully prepared and delicious! Cece was the best!”
“The rockfish special was fantastic! Great service too. My wife and I enjoyed our dinner at the bar.”
“Took my German client to this amazing restaurant and she was blissful! I’ve been many times and try to share this phenomenal dining experience with others whenever possible. High quality ingredients, all dishes are made to order and fresh and hot and delicious, generous portions and the bread is to die for! The server was delightful and so was the gentleman running the front. I can’t say enough good things! Go, enjoy!”

“Made from scratch -- great food! Attractive interior and very kind waitress. Will be back!😊”
“On 08/03/2022, my wife and I brought our cousins here to celebrate their 50th anniversary. The food and service was excellent. Our waiter was Sean. HOWEVER, during the reservation process, I was asked at least twice if there was a celebration and if so what type. I indicated on both occasions that it was a anniversary. I just assumed that when I was asked about the occasion that this occasion would somehow be acknowledged. It wasn't. (Happy anniversary). I heard the waiter at the table next to ours wish the celebrants a happy anniversary. Also, based on other reviews on this site, I noticed that a dessert was given to the celebrants as a memento. Not to our party. As I said, the service and food were excellent but missing the little "happy anniversary" left me and my wife feeling a little empty.”

“We were taken to Carytown Indian Cuisine last night by our kids. We were so impressed with our experience! The food was amazing. I requested a specially prepared curry vegetable dish, and the chef/owner was happy to create it for me. Several of our party enjoyed tikki masala with chicken. We also enjoyed lentils, cooked to perfection and wonderful chocolate lava cake for dessert. The service was impecable. Our waiters were so attentive and responsive, even though it was a very busy night. The ambience was warm and classy. The chef/owner was so gracious and even visited us at our table. I can't wait to return to CIC.”

“Food, service, ambiance....it's all 10/10. Everything I have had off the menu is incredible. The service here is unlike any service I have had in Richmond...they are attentive without being overbearing, incredibly knowledgeable about the wine and food, and so professional. I cannot recommend this place enough. Sit outside if you can, easily the best patio in Richmond.”
“Deep Run catered our wedding yesterday and I can't say enough amazing things about the crew. The team arrived and had a wonderful set up. They were pleasant and attentive especially to our elderly guests. The food was absolutely AMAZING!! Allll of my guests LOOOVVEEDDD the food. I highly recommend Deep Run!!”
“Caught up with an old friend I hadn’t seen since around ’95/’96 over lunch on 6/17/2025. I’m not usually a downtown Richmond person—city crowds just aren’t my thing—but I’m really glad he suggested this spot. I made the drive from King William, and it was absolutely worth it! The food was fantastic, and the laid-back atmosphere made it the perfect place to reconnect. I had the pork carnitas with a Caesar side salad—super flavorful, and the pork was incredibly tender. The Caesar dressing? Easily one of the best I’ve ever had. I’d love to know if it was homemade or store-bought, because I need it in my life! Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a relaxed and cool meeting spot. I’m already planning to explore more RIC gems soon!”
“TINA is AMAZING at explaining dishes & gives great suggestions on dishes to try also! Excellent service & food!”
“I have been twice now and both times the food was great. The view is outside is gorgeous btw. Now as for the food the menu is a variety of dishes themed from different parts of the world. It honestly doesn’t matter what you get it’s going to be delicious. If it’s on the menu when you go I highly recommend the Georgian flatbread, the bao buns, the chorreadas, or the cachapas!”

“Dear Emilia and Chef Joe, (a letter of thanks for a recent evening event for 62 ladies of The Fan Woman's Club) You and your staff have earned our highest admiration and gratitude in making The Tasting Supper an overwhelming success. This was truly a night sans pareil for all members of the Fan Women’s Club. You curated a seasonal menu elevated by quality farm-to-table ingredients with a combination of extraordinary flavors; crafted a French 75 that could rival the original; your staff provided impeccable and seamless service; and your restaurant gave us an intimate and jovial venue in which to celebrate our 50th anniversary. We have no doubt you’ll be seeing members of the Fan Women’s Club as regular diners in the months and years to come.”

“I went again last night (probably my 4th or 5th time in several years) - and Grisette just never misses. The smorgasbord is a must: beautiful house made pates and cured meats and fantastic cheeses, tailored to your preferences. A well curated menu of beautifully prepared sides and mains. Service is the way I love it - genuinely attentive and warm without going over the top. Prices are very fair for the quality and the level of attention to detail they bring to everything. One of my very favorites in town.”
“L'Opossum has always been superb in EVERY way. I would appreciate a little softer music but I've been coming ever since it opened and NEVER disappointed. Thank you!!!”

“first I’d like to say the waitress me and my wife had was very friendly and service was exceptional the night shift crew has the best service we’ve ever experienced and they are hilarious our waitress we didn’t catch her name but she was light skin and curvy her and the light skin man with the beard they were picking light fun at the chef and it makes us feel like a place that’s very family oriented and special and a good vibe all around .. but to the point me and my wife ordered a all star and they were absolutely delicious ! Everything we asked for cooked to perfection and quality was amazing we will be continuing to come back here for years to come and showing love to the night shift !!!!!!!”
“Tbh, I recommend everything! We met her at NuVegan about two weeks ago, and was thoroughly impressed! She had samples that inspired us to buy about five products. But wait, we ordered (sea moss & brownies) yesterday, and she delivered by hand today, all the way from Richmond to Newport News!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Try it, you’ll love it!”
“The best hispanic food in richmond 😋
But they need better customer service...
And a remodeling in the place and more lights.
But who ever is the cook in the bar needs a raise or a promotion because she's great at cooking!!
🤯🥳”
“I hope this is the one on Belt Blvd. Food was good. I did go in and ask for fresh hash browns and the person cooking said those had just come up but they were not the temperature I wanted them to be. I don't understand why when you say you want fresh food they just don't give it to you. You are the one who is paying them. Just get on my nerves”
“Local gem with incredible food and a super friendly owner and staff! I regularly order food from the deli. This place is amazing! One of the best steak subs in Richmond (made with Halal steak and organic local ingredients), and at a price you can’t beat with their Monday and Tuesday special! They also have a lot of delicious, hard to find items in their grocery section. I highly recommend you check this place out! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
Takeout Restaurants
“Hoy por primera vez desayuné en este local. Fui en compañía de dos amigas y el servicio fué excelente. Todo el staff fué muy amable, el local estaba muy limpio, la comida es exquisita y los precios muy accesibles. Espero tener la oportunidad de regresar nuevamente.”
“My pop came through town about two weeks ago. He said he wanted to grab lunch. I work nearby, and knew he loves a good burger. I was concerned because my mother (who loves cooking, loves learning new recipes, but has her classics and go-to’s, makes his burgers) would never hear the end of it, if the meal was awesome. Well. I was right. So my mom and my pops came to town and wanted to have dinner, with me and my partner. After politely asking us recommendations and subtly dodging each place my partner and I mentioned. My mom asks, “Where did you take Daddy for lunch?” We ended up hanging out and chatting while the staff started to close up. Great food. Every time. Great fast friendly service. Every time. Need a restaurant that your parents like to get them to visit? (Probably not) but THANK YOU, EAZZY BURGER!”
“Saw Slay burgers on TikTok and Facebook, noticed they were located in Richmond VA. Wanted to give it a try, and I gotta say, I was blown away, the interior design was custom made for the restaurant, the food was absolutely delicious, the menu was super easy and straight forward to read, they offer burgers, chicken sandwiches, hoagies, chicken wings, waffle fries, and drinks. The cooks KNOW what they’re doing, the front of house staff was amazing. 10/10 BETTER AND CHEAPER THEN 5 Guys. GO TO SLAY BURGERS”
“Crumbl Cookie is a game changer! The variety of flavors is incredible, with each cookie baked to perfection. They have a perfect balance of chewy and soft textures, and the creativity in their seasonal offerings keeps me coming back for more. The staff is always friendly, and the warm cookies right out of the oven are a delightful treat. Highly recommend the classic chocolate chip—it's simply unbeatable! Crumbl never disappoints; it's my go-to for a sweet indulgence. Five stars all the way!”
“Sefton is the greatest cafe in richmond, the staff are so kind to everyone who comes in. I get the same thing every time I come in to the point where barista’s and the owners know my order 😂. I get it bc it’s easy on my stomach, but they have such an amazing looking menu and are always changing it to fit the season! I always make sure to bring friends and family who are visiting here because it really is a special part of the community 🙂”
“We stopped here based on a friends recommendation and he was spot on. Staff were friendly and attentive! The atmosphere is really cool with hanging sound dampeners with plants as well. The Bar is huge with a great selection. We ordered the pork rind nachos.. oh Yum. They came out crackling and popping with pulled pork and spicy jalapeños and cheese sauce. My Dinner was their Crab cakes - deliciousness light and fluffy and oh the Brussel sprouts with the pork belly were Great! The wife had a short rib appetizer for her dinner and it was fall apart yummy. Her Mac and cheese was great too - it was the heaviest Mac n cheese I have ever had. The our son got the Shrimp and Grits. He said they were great and the grits were really cheesy too. Thank you for a great dining experience! We shall return when we are down this way again.”
“The food truck outside was superb. Food was beyond of this world”
“I’ve been 5 times to Hot Pot 757 Midlothian and it never disappoints. Most recently celebrated my husband’s birthday! The staff was so very attentive, plenty of food to choose from and upon ordering food would arrive table side in moments of ordering. And if you let them know it’s a birthday, the robot will sing to the birthday person!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Front counter staff is friendly and quick and if you've been there, you've likely met the owner, Olaf. He takes great care of his guests. The place is super clean with tons of seating. Clearly, everyone has found out about it because it's busier every time I go—and I almost always run into someone I know. But there's still plenty of seating. High-quality coffee and food, great atmosphere, and you're supporting a local small business.”
“lokeman’s Best wings are the best! I have nothing bad to say about this spot! Every time I come there, they are clean, polite and i never have anything wrong with my order. The wait time is never bad , and. the two guys who are typically up front are really cool and helpful.With 30 different flavors, you can’t go wrong ( in my opinion, go for the 24 karat wings. They are 🔥 )”
“I stumbled across this place when I was here for a work trip. I went home and told my husband, I HAVE to come back. Just like others say, it’s intimate, amazing and attentive staff, and the music creates an awesome vibe. My husband brought me back for my birthday/anniversary and one of the owners sang happy birthday to me and another person! My review can’t describe the feeling I had listening to the music, with my delicious drink, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the seafood salad.”
“We had a great dinner! The staff was absolutely amazing! The food was delicious! Our waiter Joseph went out of his way to make sure the evening was perfect! Thanks again! We will be back soon!”
“They have a fantastic, fresh, and interesting menu. The service is excellent without being too "stuffy." Henley on Grace is a perfect choice for a special afternoon or evening out.”

“My brother and me attended the club on saturday 9-07-24 we both enjoyed the atmosphere and the customer service with the 2 ladies there at the earliest time we're very nice and polite. We both had vip sessions with the dancers and which of course becky did an amazing job on the stripper pole and as well while she offered her 15 minute private session with me.. This visit will be remembered, especially since it was 20 years since I ever walked into a place such as this location.. Thank you Becky ?”
“Lyoni was absolutely AMAZING!! super chill, easy to talk to, and made the whole night really enjoyable, everything came out just right and they always checked in. honestly one of the best experiences I’ve had in a while :)”
“We visited the day before Diwali festival day. Ambience is very nice, was so well decorated and warmly received by the staff.
Good suggestions on picking food and it was prepared deliciously.
Enjoyed eating at this place :).
Surely recommend this restaurant to visit any day.”
Cheap Eats
“Absolutely phenomenal experience at CHIC’N CRAVE in Petersburg! I placed a large order just 30 minutes before closing—four chicken sandwiches, a 20-piece chicken tender meal, and their amazing honey biscuits—and everything was fresh, hot, and made to order. That kind of care and quality, especially so close to closing time, really impressed me. The food? Top-tier. The chicken sandwiches were perfectly crispy and flavorful, and the tenders were juicy with a golden crunch. But the honey biscuits stole the show—soft, buttery, and just the right touch of sweetness. What really stood out, though, was the service. The owner personally greeted me with a warm welcome, and you could tell they genuinely care about their customers. It’s rare to find that kind of hospitality and pride in both food and service. If you're in Petersburg or just passing through, CHIC’N CRAVE on North Sycamore Street is a must-try. I’ll definitely be back!”
“Coffee is great. You can tell they love what they do . They serve the traditional classics, they ll throw in a twist with their great seasonal drinks. But if you love espressos, lattes, cappuccinos, and great beans give this place a try. While you wait for your drinks you can step into the patio or their vintage shop which is equally impressive. Right on bud”
“I love this place! The food is terrific and the atmosphere cozy and welcoming. I've had the classic samosa, golden milk chai and desi lo mein. Each was out of this world! The owner strives to make his guests feel at home and encourages you to mingle and make new friends. I encourage you to try Gold Lion for the food, drink and friendly vibe!”
“Ist time customer- Ordered from DoorDash and I'll definitely order from this restaurant again. The Steamed Pork Bun has a nice flavor and the bun was soft but firm like it should be. The Steamed Veggie Bun was very tasty. The filling for that is like eating the filling of a veg eggroll. Both of the above buns were perfectly steamed! The Pan-Fried Pork Dumplings were my fave- so yummy, juicy, and just a great flavor. I would have liked a variety of sauce options instead of the same dipping sauce for the buns & dumplings to jazz things up a bit, but this was a really nice dining experience. Pretty traditional in terms of the sauce. The site is not allowing me to post pics with this review but the filling was pretty generous in both buns as well as in the dumplings. The Chicken Soup was just ok- it's missing a little something, maybe just needs some seasoning.”
“SO many great flavors to choose from; roasted strawberry will spoil you on regular strawberry ice cream forever! The cannoli ice cream(with mini cannoli shell) was excellent. My daughter always gets a sweet little macaron on top of whatever she chooses. It’s such a great spot to grab a great scoop (or two!) of ice cream.”
“We live and work in the Brookland Park Neighborhood and love BPK's accessibility, friendly atmosphere, well balanced menu and service. Not only have we dining multiple times, recently I was in a pinch for a cocktail party and found relief. At the very last minute I was able to place a catering order for three signature dishes and they were all crowd favorites! If you live in the neighborhood do yourself a favor and check them out. It's the place to bring your out of town guests and impress them with our neighborhoods offerings!”
“This place checked almost all my boxes for brunch spots;a variety of Benny's, specialty cocktails especially ones with flowers, moonshine, and sparkling, chicken and waffles, biscuits and gravy; stuffed French toast, and avocado toast. Ambiance was great; the building is an old school movie theatre. Both the food and service we're amazing; Jessica was handling her business!”
“I'm familiar with the chef, and his food is impeccable. The new menu debuted tonight, and supporting this business was absolutely worth it. Great service and an excellent place for gatherings.”
“Food, service, ambiance....it's all 10/10. Everything I have had off the menu is incredible.

“this right here is the place to be good music best djs the staff was very professional and shout to the security guard at the front entrance for being very professional and nice but still held it down the atmosphere is so classy and shout out to the dj in the library always play the classics the food is on point and drinks a must place to visit and get your party on and shout out to host on the mic you have put Richmond back on the map once again I always enjoy myself and friends when we are at your HOFHEIMER and last to the mangers that keep it real and do interact with everyone .”
“The food was absolutely amazing. The customer service was exceptional. The atmosphere was such a delight, very clean, very romantic the pricing that you paid for the amount of food you got was really great. It's so great to have this type of customer service stateside I felt like I was taking a trip just by visiting a restaurant, if you haven't been definitely put it on your bucket list a must experience”
“Food was outstanding, from the Cobia special to the rhubarb hand pie. Excellent food would highly recommend”
“The restaurant was very open and spacious with a full bar. I thought it might be very noisy because of the incredibly tall ceilings, but it wasn't. Service was prompt and efficient, our order of chicken sandwich and beet salad arrived promptly. Both were good quality and quantity roughly $15 each. Great beer, wine and cocktail selection. Wasn't impressed with the rib egg roll, they were popular though. Street parking could be a challenge during peak dining hours.
Wheelchair accessibility: Good”
“Please like our new Facebook page to stay updated with specials throughout the week. Taste of India RVA”
“Our server, Jane, was amazing. She provided great descriptions of the specials. She genuinely enjoyed her job. The food was delicious! Everyone was friendly and smiling. Oh and they have an awesome reward program!”

“Phenomenal flavors paired together for sweet and savory dishes. Unique menu options they change regularly! So yummy 😋”
“Quality of the sushi was excellent. Service was adequate, waiter was quite friendly, but it took forever to receive our food. I would go back, but would only do so at a time when its not so busy.”
“Tried a custom mocktail and a caipirinha, plus an enormous serving of flan at happy hour. The Vibe at the bar and on Cary Street was really fun. (Note the blue light illuminating our drink.) Def coming back for their Sunday brunch all-day happy hour.”
“Delicious food. Huge entree/pasta portions so would recommend family style - everyone get something different and share. Can't go wrong with any of the appetizers, also fairly sharable. Only thing is the room is packed to the brim with seating so you have squeeze through to get to your table, and it's incredibly loud.”
“Atmosphere was great and so was the food. I will go again.”
“Went twice in one weekend, if you’re an oyster fanatic look no further - this is the place to hit up! Service was phenomenal, as were drinks. Already thinking about my next trip here!”
“My husband and I enjoyed an early Christmas dinner with our son and his girlfriend on 12/01/24. Service, entrees and wine were all extraordinary. Such a gem of a place. We can’t wait to visit again soon.”
“Not bad at all, the food was decent but a little pricy, I’ve heard a lot of good things about pinky’s and I agree with most that has been said. Definitely worth trying.”
“Absolutely fantastic service and food. From oysters, main course, and dessert...the meal was fabulous. I have several food allergies and the chef made a special meal for us on my birthday. Highly recommend! (side note: I dropped my napkin when stepping out to the powder room and the staff promptly had a fresh and folded one waiting upon return). Immaculate attention to detail and customer service 🙌”
“We come to Shagbark when we visit our kids here in Richmond. Everything is always delicious and the service is wonderful.”
“We had two of the specials tonight - lamb stew and salmon. Delicious and bountiful meals and wonderful desserts (as always).”
“Fantastic. You can tell the chef and waitstaff care about the quality.”
“fabulous food, great flavors, excellent service, and a fun place to eat and relax. we all loved it.”
“We have been here a couple of times and it is without a doubt the best Mexican food I have ever eaten in RVA! The restaurant is attractive and spotlessly clean. The staff is professional and friendly.”
“We came to Revel with friends who are regulars. Revel is their new go to place and I can see why. Revel is relaxed with friendly staff and great small plates, my favorite. Every dish we had was expertly prepared. Pork empanadas, grilled broccolini, scallops, a spinach salad. To pick a favorite is tough because every plate was really good. We will definitely be back!”
“Love the fact that I finally found a place for live metal bands, which I'm definitely into. But the venue desperately needs to invest in some upgrades for the upstairs. Looking a bit dumpy”
“The food was delicious, service was impeccable, definitely plan on going back!!! 10/10.”
“🇮🇳 Girls Indian lunch date🇮🇳 - Newly opened (Dec ‘22) restuarant serving modern indian cuisines - Beautifully decorated atmosphere - Delicious food w/ even a twist of a warm avocado/coconut patty option on the appetizer menu! - Friendly staff and restuarant manager - Immaculate restrooms”
“Just had a fantastic New Year's Eve dinner, complete with champagne. Primo service as always.”
“Tonight was my first time in Botanya and it won’t be the last! The atmosphere was chill and welcoming. The food and drinks were fantastic. The staff were knowledgeable and had great recommendations! Thank you!”
“Stellar kitchen in a beautiful space. I love that you can see what's cooking from any seat at the bar.
Drinks are perfect, especially paired with the best seafood in Richmond. Don't miss out!”
“Incredible drinks and tres leches. Food and service was amazing too. Only thing that was lacking was the cilantro rice. Will be back again though.”
“First time eating here. The decor and ambiance was great. The vibe was good. Our waitress Kelly was awesome. The food was DELICIOUS & portions were hearty! There is outdoor dining with heat lamps and fireplace. We ate inside and got to watch the bartender work his magic. The drinks were delish too! Overall, this little gem is too good to miss!”
“Absolutely enjoyed trying Thai for the first time! The food was delicious! This will be my go to spot every time I'm in Richmond, VA.”
“We dine here on special occasions when guests are visiting or when we are in the area. It is always good. We consider Lulu's a quintessential Richmond brunch place and it does not disappoint in any areas. Love it!”
“Food was phenomenal, but the smoked duck and the grouper special were just unbelievable. I wish I'd gotten the name of the guy that suggested we try it when I called, he wanted to know what I thought so here's your answer.”
“Arrr, I’ve sailed to Väsen Brewery a fair few times, I have! I be likin' to give me review after a couple o' visits—seems only fair, eh? So far, I’ve no gripes to speak of, but even if I did, what good’d it do? Every brew I’ve tasted be top-notch! I especially love takin' me dog there, too—'tis a fine escape when the weather be foul and I’m feelin' cooped up. Me last visit was with me ol' dad, and he had naught but praise fer Väsen as well. Arrr!”
“First time. Very welcoming atmosphere. Hostesses & wait staff very attentive. Minimal wait time for drinks & food. Will be back.”
“Excellent Food, friendly staff, nice layout. Selena (and others) were very attentive, and made the experience even better. Hats off to the Chef for some of the tastiest food I can remember.”
“I don't know why they are adamant on not being a Mexican restaurant but that's what it is. Their very small menu had Mexican dishes. That being said, the food was super delicious. Probably the best birria we've had in the Richmond area and Hampton roads. We had the margarita flight and it was very yummy and well balanced. My favorite one was the passion fruit. The carne asada nachos were very good and a huge portion. The bathrooms were clean and had awesome decor AND they even had feminine products which is a huge plus. If I had to give any critique it would be that the taco-dillas had like no cheese but didn't matter since the birria had so much flavor. I also thought the tortillas were on the thicker side. And the last thing is that they didn't have a changing table in the bathroom for my baby. The place is small but over all the staff was very friendly and we will be coming back (:”
“Great service. I love a restaurant that care about their guest, especially the ones with certain food allergies. Trio also have a nice atmosphere”
“Really good food and selection from steaks that was excellent to fresh fish. We enjoyed it server alert and efficient service.”
“Great date night restaurant! Kevin, our server was great, as was the food, drinks and the ambiance. Topped it off with dancing to Shades of Gray band on the first floor. A night to remember and repeat soon!”
“I waited all week to get a meal from Mama J ! I was very disappointed, my order was wrong no corn muffin ,got cabbage when I order collar greens. Waitress wrote collardgreens on my order but someone didn't read and gave me cabbage. Also gave me a teaspoon of potato salad .I came from Chesterfield to be disappointed. A 40.00 meal 0”
“Just enjoyed a great meal! My fav is the Greek gyro bowl! But my hubs loves lamb gyro- it’s huge! Everything is so fresh and good! 5 star@bellgreekvillage”
“OMG!!!! I love soup , especially Wonton and I had exactly that. That was the best flavor explosion 💥 that I’ve ever had. The broth, the perfect wonton, the delicious oversized noodles 🍜, vegetables. I could go on and on.”
“Tried the Cubanita rice bowls at the mobile food truck tonight at the Powhatan Farmers Market. Generous portions, and authentic Cuban flavor. We can’t wait to make the trip to try the restaurant!”
“Awesome restaurant with the best food I’ve ever eaten. The serving portions were large, hot, scrumptious tasting, and home cooked….it was unbelievable. You must go there, I guarantee you will return again and again. The quaint facility was serene with a very warm atmosphere. The staff was impeccable.”
“Decided to treat myself to a Mom break, had a book, a great drink, and a delicious, FRESH and all home made meal. Music was great and the whole atmosphere was just perfect and relaxing. I had the most amazing oysters, and all of the food was AMAZING! Chicken Caesar Salad 🥗 was incredible! Kudos to the Chef(s) and staff!! 🤩🤩🤩 Jamela was my server, and she was not only ridiculously kind and welcoming, but completely knowledgeable about the entire menu, about all the locations, what to recommend and all of the different delicious sauces! She is an absolute gem 💎 . Thank you so much for seeing a tired Mom, and providing a level of GENUINE Service and kindness that I haven’t seen in quite a while. Bless you all! Thank you Croaker Spot! -Karma”
“We were asked to LEAVE the restaurant by the manager. He told us that just ordering drinks was not making him money and we were taking up space from the people waiting to be seated. I looked and there was NO ONE WAITING. I hope everyone believes this. I was embarrassed and so very angry that I got up and left before I spoke out in anger. Also we had already decided to come back there and have lunch after our scheduled tour was over. After how he treated us..... he lost our business and the business from everyone else I tell my experience to This is the review I posted on their website.”
“I couldn't speak more highly of this restaurant! When we dined in we had delicious entrees (the duck was amazing!) along with cocktails and Chef Andy was able to make our Christmas dinner a success by catering for us! 5 ⭐️ all around!”
“Neighbor is a great spot for a drink or dinner! The staff is friendly, funny, and attentive. The food is delicious and reasonably priced with great portion sizes. Highly recommend!!”
“I love what they have done to this place. Cozy, bright, warm colors. It has a brewery smell when you walk in the door. Smells like heaven. The cider is delightful. There is a cider club. I highly recommend joining it. I have been a cider club member for over ten years. Bring a friend, have a cider, a snack and prepare to gab.”
“First time visit but certainly not the last. Highly recommend. Superior food and drink 🍹”

“My friend and I went for lunch today at Lulabelles, the food was delicious. We had a $20 gift certificate to put towards a $36 bill and gave our server a $20 tip which seemed to be quite generous. Barely offend you that she whisked what was left on our table away, then returned a couple of minutes later to rather abruptly tell us that they had reservations coming in on the next half hour, the implication being that we had best get out of there. I have worked with the public all of my life, and I know there is a way to communicate, she needs to learn it. I only wish we had our $20 back!”
“I waited all week to get a meal from Mama J ! I was very disappointed, my order was wrong no corn muffin ,got cabbage when I order collar greens. Waitress wrote collardgreens on my order but someone didn't read and gave me cabbage. Also gave me a teaspoon of potato salad .I came from Chesterfield to be disappointed. A 40.00 meal 0”
“Definitely 5 stars! Me and my daughter went for brunch, a pitcher of Mimosas and the best breakfast I've ever had. My daughter ordered the biscuits and gravy. They were so good, almost like a she-crab bisque flavor gravy-absolutely wonderful. I ordered the chicken biscuit, was also wonderful, the hot honey with the fresh homemade Bisquit was so flavorful. No wait to be seated, the waitstaff was very friendly. Definitely recommend and definitely will go back!”
“I had the pleasure of having a surprise party for my wife's 50th Birthday on 3/16/2024. I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the amazing job Ron Stallings and The Speakeasy/Hippodrome staff did for my party. The food was DELICIOUS!! The service was prompt and professional. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The final product truly exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and I would highly recommend this company to anyone in need of a venue for an event.”
“We were taken to Carytown Indian Cuisine last night by our kids. We were so impressed with our experience! The food was amazing. I requested a specially prepared curry vegetable dish, and the chef/owner was happy to create it for me. Several of our party enjoyed tikki masala with chicken. We also enjoyed lentils, cooked to perfection and wonderful chocolate lava cake for dessert. The service was impecable. Our waiters were so attentive and responsive, even though it was a very busy night. The ambience was warm and classy. The chef/owner was so gracious and even visited us at our table. I can't wait to return to CIC.”
“We've been going across town to the Broad Street location for years, but live in Midlothian. We were so happy when they told us they were opening up a sister location in Chesterfield, just 7 minutes from Midlothian! We were NOT disappointed! The place was packed, yet we were seated, offered drinks, asked about ordering, and receiving our food all in a very timely manner. And, just like the other location, the food was sooooo tasty! My apologies to the Broad Street location, but I'll probably eat here more than there.”

“Great restaurant. Staff and management are very attentive. Only negative I would say was they opened at 5pm the day we visited. We arrived at 5:10 for a 5:30 reservation. So we decided to hang at the bar until our table was ready. The bar tender was unfortunately alone and still had to set up. She wasn't able to pay us much attention. She should have had some help. Anyways overall a great experience and great food.”
“My wife ordered the 3 course meal. It was excellent and all she could eat. All the courses were 10 out of 10. The petite brownie sunday was larger than petite by a long shot. I had the full rack of baby back ribs special and a baked potato with sour cream and butter. The last 3 or 4 times I had the rib, they were perfect. The bones almost fell out with no meat attached. This time I ended up having to pick up the bones and gnaw some of the meat off. Before, I could surgically remove the meat and never had to touch a bone. They have the best baked potatoes I have eaten anywhere. The are perfectly baked all the way through.”

“My pop came through town about two weeks ago. He said he wanted to grab lunch. I work nearby, and knew he loves a good burger. I was concerned because my mother (who loves cooking, loves learning new recipes, but has her classics and go-to’s, makes his burgers) would never hear the end of it, if the meal was awesome. Well. I was right. So my mom and my pops came to town and wanted to have dinner, with me and my partner. After politely asking us recommendations and subtly dodging each place my partner and I mentioned. My mom asks, “Where did you take Daddy for lunch?” We ended up hanging out and chatting while the staff started to close up. Great food. Every time. Great fast friendly service. Every time. Need a restaurant that your parents like to get them to visit? (Probably not) but THANK YOU, EAZZY BURGER!”
“8/9/25
We went on a Saturday night without a reservation. I would recommend having a reservation to others because I felt like we got lucky. Waited about 20 minutes to get a seat.
The hostess was helpful, and the wait staff was attentive. Food came out relatively quickly.
The inside of the restaurant was lively, very attractive, and all of the patrons looked to be completely enjoying themselves.
Started with the basket of cornbread, and could see immediately that it was dripping in butter. Light, tender, and slightly sweet. Probably the most enjoyable cornbread I have ever had. My wife had meatloaf, mashed potatoes with brown gravy, and mac n cheese. She enjoyed all. I found the mac n cheese tasty, but not noteworthy. I had country fried chicken, mashed potatoes with chicken gravy, and stewed tomatoes. Mashed potatoes were excellent, and stewed tomatoes were a revelation on how well they could be prepared. The disappointment of the meal was the chicken. It was drier and tougher than I had had at nice restaurants like this in a very long time. I should have sent it back, but I did not.
Overall, we were both very happy with Southern Kitchen. We will be back.”

“The food, as always was incredible and a good value - I had the baked shrimp Chesapeake, with tons of crab and shrimp. Delicious! The veggies were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The Hanover Tomato Caprese salad was fresh and light. My only complaint was that the air conditioning units (not central air) were not working in some areas, which no one seemed surprised about. The banquet room in the front was much cooler but they said they wouldn't seat anyone there even though it was open that night. Leaving customers uncomfortable in a hot dining room when you have a large banquet room that's cool, does not feel like putting the customer first.”
