“Very authentic place. Deserts are homemade. ??Main dish was amazing. If you really want to experience a real taste of Balkan food(not americanized), it is a great place to see it. I also need to mention that owner is quite positive and treats you as guest not like a customer.“
“First time here and the food, drinks and service were great! Definitely will be back! Finding parking was a little challenge, but definitely worth it. We had the grilled calamari, cauliflower and scallops and shrimp. Delicious!!! Highly recommend!!“
“I very much enjoyed the experience at Uliveto. The service and ambience were warm and inviting. As for the food, I enjoyed the olive bread and octopus special. Though I would have preferred the olive bread served warm. They reminded me of my many culinary experiences in Europe. However the portion and presentation when it came to the flounder entree was poor. The portion size was much too large and the presentation needed work. I thought the fish was cooked well. I think this restaurant has the opportunity to become a staple in the community. My hope is the menu options are decreased by half or more. A focus on a few dishes that are executed on well in taste, portion, and appearance would not only help customers avoid decision fatigue when choosing their meal, but would ensure consistent quality of food. Having a smaller menu would also help keep costs down by helping the restaurant have less food inventory which should ensure ingredients are consistently fresh. I would also consider having a separate wine bottle menu that is offered on request, while shifting wine by the glass to the cocktail menu.“

“We ordered a catered lunch for work which included chicken and lamb kabobs, yellow and white rice, hummus and pita, tabouli, grape leaves, Greek salad and baklava. EVERYTHING was delicious. So flavorful and freshly made! And the presentation was beautiful! The kabobs and rice were piping hot and the salads and hummus were cool and fresh. Everything had just the right amount of spices. And the baklava was the best I’ve ever had and my colleagues were in agreement. The owner went out of his way to prepare an amazing catered lunch. It was beyond 5 stars. We will definitely be ordering again from 2MPS.“
“My son and I go there when we visit Richmond. We have the Mixed platters. I like the hot sauce. My son likes the white. Either one you will not be disappointed. The food and service are wonderful. Everything is made to order, fresh, and hot. The atmosphere is low key nice and clean. Thank you Carytown Gyro for a wonderful dining experience everytime.“
“Pinky's is fabulous!Highlights:- Refreshing menu selection.- Excellent customer service.- Plenty of N/A bar options.- Beautiful, open layout in the dining room.Everything we ordered was great but I particularly enjoyed the Octopus and the Beet Salad.Highly recommend!“
“I was very excited to come into this Mediterranean bakery/deli after having a chicken meat pie at an event. I came in around 6pm, most of the hot dishes had already been bought up but I was able to get a spinach hand pie and three pieces of pistachio baklava. The spinach pie was even better than the chicken I had previously had, moist and flavorful with a little kick on the back and. The baklava was the star of the show and keeps me coming back to this market. In another visit there was no hot food items but I was able to pick up some pickles, hot peppers from Palestine, markuk bread and of course more baklava. The staff are always incredibly friendly. This market offers a wide variety of items, deli/ cold prepared items, frozen items, canned/jarred pantry items, spices and more! Love this place!!“
“We are lucky to have such good food in our neighborhood. We have had everything on the menu and all of it is incredible. Portions are huge, price isn't crazy, and the vibe is Richmond's top tier. The Hawaiian bowl or nachos are amazing, the poke bowl, the lamb tacos, the calamari, the burger, the crab spaghetti, all of it is so good.If you drink, don't miss out on the frozen. Do you like the idea of icy, slushy consistency, but aren't interested in something reminiscent of a slurpee your friends filled with everclear in high school? The seasonal frozens are thoughtfully crafted slushy drinks with layers of flavors that dont rely on sugar to create taste. You will not be disappointed.“
“Visiting from SC. Found this place and so glad that we did! The options were all wonderful looking and tasting and the drinks were phenomenal as well!All of the employees were helpful and friendly! I wish there was a location near where we live. Highly recommend! Also, get their APP to save and earn free food!“
“My son and boyfriend took us tonight as they go all the time. Tried the Pakilia and it was wonderful!!! A great sampling of food. We will definitely be back!Vegetarian options: My sons boyfriend is Vegan and he has no trouble finding a dish to eat.“
“We ordered through Door Dash and the food was fantastic! I got the Platter with shrimp kebob, veggie kebob, rice, flat bread & cucumber/onion/tomato salad! The ingredients tasted fresh and were seasoned perfectly! It felt like healthy eating and was reasonably priced! We will definitely be ordering from this place again!“
“Happened upon Sahara on a Sunday (en route to the Hippodrome for an event).. walked in - it was empty and quiet, but Mariam (owner) came out and welcomed us. So glad we stayed! Delicious food, including complimentary lentil soup and a delicate spice tea!“
“What a trip to flavor country. Let me start with the service.Nadine was polite and gave us great advice on what was best to order. We had our drinks filled more often than a sailor swears. The restaurant was cleaner than one would expect in rva, somehow they’re winning the war against the general historic Richmond atmosphere. It was appetizing to find no fault nor splash of errant sauce on any surface.But on to the best part because one should be succinct if anything when leaving a review: the food had a balanced level of seasoning, setting off complimentary flavor like firecrackers in one’s mouth, quickly tamed by sweet garlic cream sauce and elevated by the savory spoonful of saffron rice nestled timelyin between other bites. Prepare an Uber. They don’t serve alcohol that I observed but I left with a food coma more powerful than any three shots of quality Irish whiskey.This was a good time. And now, I will sleep off the metric ton of various meats I have devoured.Bee tea dubs, the family meal was an affordable way of gaining 3 lbs in a day and it was worth it.Yum.“
“Very clean environment, always greeted when I walk in the door, and the food always settles in the right part of my belly. I think I have been to Cava at least 15 times in 3 months. I am never disappointed. My only thing that I need to get better at is being more adventurous with the menu. It's healthy, it taste clean and fresh. Go CAVA! This posting is for Short Pump not Willow Lawn. I think my last review was for Willow Lawn in error. Please Advise!“
“I was just there today with a group of girls. There were about 15/16 of us and the staff there was amazing! The guy was very helpful & friendly. He got us in & out quickly as their line starting getting long. Seems they were understaffed as he went from the food to the kitchen. The girl next to him was very helpful & pleasant too. Thank you all for your patience & help with the bowl! It was yummy“
“O-M-G! Super good food, super nice staff. Excellent service, large portions. If you are looking for a healthy meal composed of quality protein, fresh veggies, and healthy grains with a Mediterranean twist, look no further! My daughter has an egg allergy and I think it's awesome that they have all of the ingredients and items on their menu listed out by special diet and allergens. They even have kids meals. It's laid out like Chipotle where you choose what you want going down the line. They have a lot of variety to choose from. Definitely a place I'm going to be taking my family when I'm too tired to cook dinner! This is exactly what I've been looking for -- quick, healthy, and kid-friendly food at a low(er) price point.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options include white basmati rice, brown, basmati rice, bulgar pilaf, falafel, all of the toppings, all of the sauces, and all of the sides and sweets.Dietary restrictions: They have something for everyone! The allergen and dietary menu is on the back of the menu.Parking: Parking right out front and on the sides. I don't think you'll have any trouble finding parking hereKid-friendliness: Kids meals and lots of kid-friendly items on the menu!Wheelchair accessibility: This place has lots of handicap parking and is wheelchair accessible.“
“This place was amazing! I went with my mother (who is vegan), and our waitress Chloe, went to the back and took the time to mark up a menu to specify which items my mother could have. The rest of the staff was also very nice and accommodating, and the managing partner at the bar, Mike, was also very nice and friendly. Plus, the food was excellent.“
“Perfect place for our wedding! The event coordinator and staff were wonder and everything went so smoothly. Beautiful place for pictures and the food was spectacular. I would do the night all over again at Quirk! Thank you to Liz, Scott, Nicole & other staff members :)Dietary restrictions: Gluten free & vegetarian options“
“We had our 20 year alumni event for about 24 people with dinner, drinks, and dessert. Melissa was super responsive to questions and alterations for the event and the food and service were awesome when we attended. The 2 servers did an excellent job.“
“I’ve never been to cava before this one and I will definitely be going back soon! The food was delicious but what set them apart was the service! I was helped by Kiesh, who walked me through the menu, recommended her favorite bowl, and was so friendly! The bowl she recommended was the harissa avacado which was ???!“
“We had catering from Stella’s and their salmon is the best in town! For the first time ever, Stella’s made a small error in our order and went over the top to make it right, by delivering to our house and adding a yummy extra by way of apology. I wish they made mistakes more often! Thank you, Stella’s!“
