“Wife and I trying new places exploring Richmond. This was a gem. Service was excellent. Atmosphere, character and ambiance of the bar and dining room were old-school comfortable and welcoming.Dinner included wedge salad and seared tuna, Arugula salad and simply prepared blackened salmon. Prepared properly, served with a family side of potatoes. Delicious.Service continued their appropriate attention throughout the meal, dessert, and closing out.Not to be passed up if visiting Richmond.“
“We came here for happy hour and I could taste that they used a good tequila in the margarita it was so good. I was going to get the firecracker shrimp but they had some Reuben sandwiches left from Saint Patties Day so we both had them and we weren’t disappointed! It came on marbled bread and the corned beef was sweet and tender with no gristle. Shout out to Brendan and DeAndre for excellent service! It was my BFF’s birthday dinner and they sent over a yummy chocolate cake for her. Thank you. Also, shout out to the chef as she really knows how to cook corned beef — it really was delectable.Edited to add that the beet tower with goat cheese was awesome!“
“Got the steak special, rockfish and Korean BBQ ribs special - everything was great! Small rotating menu, so what’s available one week may be gone the next. Even though the menu is small, the dishes are very strong. Highly recommend for a date night for any seafood person.“
“Our server was great and the food was good as well. Our calamari came out underwhelming with a ton of breading that had fallen off. Our server asked how it was and we commented that it was a bit on the sad side. He promptly replaced it with a new serving. It was very thoughtful and quick.“
“Unassuming joint, but the food’s on point.My main gripes with wings from most places are 1) that they never quite seem to be crispy enough and 2) that they’re big victims of shrinkflation, charging me upwards of $2 apiece for wings that seem to get smaller every year.This place did not have either of those problems. The wings were big, cooked well, crispy, and extremely flavorful. They worked out to just north of a dollar per wing and weren’t stingy with the sauces / ranch either. So the value is certainly there.The customer service was also on point, the guy running the front counter was very nice and took extra care to make sure I had everything I needed before carrying it out.My new go-to for wings in RVA. Don’t let the outside fool you, this place is legit!“
“WHAT A DELICIOUS MEAL!! The filet & lobster, shrimp & scallops were literally melt in your mouth! We had the steamed oyster combination as an appetizer... the Ruby Salts oysters were so sweet!! Thank you for the meal & the service was on point!!“
“Went twice this week. First visit was excellent with great service. They rolled out the guacamole cart and made it right in front of us. Food was very good and reasonably priced. The second visit had slow service, no guacamole cart. The food was still good. The Mojito was very good.“
“This was my cousin and my first time here and everything from entering the building to the ease of ordering was spectacular! We did have some recommendation's from Chef Kristi on some wine pairings and they did not disappoint! We tried the GRECHETTO, which is a white wine and for my girlies and guys who love Sauvignon blanc or Pinot Grigio, you will love this!! We also tried the PINOT NERO and this was a hit!! I'm a red wine drinker and this was so smooth and full of flavor! We had the fried homemade mozzarella and the Parmesan risotto fries to start (thanks Chef) and they were perfect!! I ordered the Pappardelle with Sausage Ragu and instead of the salad I had the Pancetta and onion soup! The consistency, the flavor, the temperature of the soup, all perfect! The pasta was so fresh, the sausage had an amazing taste and the sauce was perfect! My cousin ordered the chicken Alfredo Alfredo and the chicken was seasoned perfectly!! The sauce to pasta ratio was spot on!! For dessert we had the limoncello marscapone cake and yall... the freshest, most moist slice of cake I've ever had! The flavor of the lemon was not too overpowering and it did not stand a chance on that table! 10/10 recommend!!“
“I ordered the steak and cheese egg rolls, honey garlic chicken, creme brule cheesecake, and a blood orange tamed mule. Everything was really good but the honey garlic chicken only tasted of balsamic vinegar. My favorite had to be the pgilly cheesesteak egg roll appetizer. The cheesecake had a nice crisp top and fruit sauce. I'd definitely go back to try more“
“Absolutely incredible! They always go above and beyond, and the food is extraordinary. If I lived a bit closer I’d order their food every day. Great menu, the staff is incredibly accommodating and helpful. They are very dedicated to providing great food and a great experience. Probably top 5 of my restaurants in Richmond. Give them a try or 2, you won’t regret it!“
“Don't be deceived by the simple decor. The food is excellent! We both had tilefish entree. Fresh and well prepared, sitting atop a nice size bed of braised veggies. I'd requested lo sodium. And voila! That's exactly what i received. Friendly service. Prices reasonable. Highly recommended.“
“We had a reservation for a larger group on a Thursday night. The small restaurant was busy but our table was ready on time, it just took quite a while to get drinks and food ordered and then service after we got our food. Otherwise everything was absolutely flavorful and delicious. They really know what they’re doing! Portions are massive so come hungry or dine with friends.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian pasta and pizza options were great! The mushrooms are especially delicious in various dishes.“
“I’ve eaten here for the past two weekends. The #1 jumbo males are my favorite. Last weekend I came as soon as he opened and requested to pick them up 3 hours later. Upon my arrival the owner had them boxed up and ready to go. My family was overjoyed with how fresh and succulent they were. Today was no different when I visited to get my #1 males. Same great customer service and amazing product for the past 20+ years we’ve visited.“
“The service was great and food was even better. The signature cornbread is a dessert in itself. I love tartar sauce and theirs is obviously homemade to prefection. Crabcakes are made with backfin versus lump which was not the best but they were seasoned well. I would recommend new chairs and tables due to unsturdiness.“
“Thank you to the Lilly Pad for your exceptional service. We were floating up to Rocketts Landing from Anchor Point Marina for the lighted boat parade and running late. We needed pizza for our hungry tummies so we pulled up to the dock and they came right out. Got us our pizza and we were back on our way in no time! And that pizza was sooooo good! Thanks also for the great party you throw every year for the specators! You are by far my favorite spot!“
“Last night my significant other and I celebrated his birthday in style by having dinner at Fleming's. The Service was great the Food was Exquisite and the Ambiance was Beautiful. Our server Trent J, was amazing. He was polite beyond measure, courteous and very attentive. Two other people came by our table to check on us, just to make sure we were happy and satisfied. Trust me when I say, we felt as if we were getting the "RED CARPET" treatment. This was my first visit to Fleming's but certainly will not be my last!!“
“Went to a concert at the Broadberry. Got the munchies, so we walked down to Cabo Fish Taco in Scott’s Addition and scarfed up the carnita tacos! The tacos were absolutely yummy! We also loved the “make your own guacamole”, chips, and corn salsa. Abby was the sweetest - serving up delicious food with a kind smile! We will be back on another Friday for Trivia Night!“
“Delicious food and wonderful atmosphere! An extremely lovely experience overall. Very accommodating when I requested a dairy free meal. 10/10 The bartender (Justin) and chef (Adam) made the meal even more personable and enjoyable. Thank you!“
“We have been dining here since they opened many, many years ago. The reason is because the food is always authentic and freshly made, the price is always good and the staff do a great job to make you comfortable. My wife and I are eating here again this Sunday for our 39th wedding anniversary. We have made this our go to place for many of our Birthdays and anniversaries.Thanks for the memories!“
“A take-out restaurant for sandwiches and salads. Run by an elderly Asian couple. I was there at 2p and got a classic club sandwich (split in 4 corners and delicious ?), and I even saw a park bench for sale inside. I had a similar one at home and wanted to make a pair, so I also bought a great park bench that the man got from his friend in Poland!Will come again soon.“
“Okay So This One Is Lengthy But PLEASE READ !! I’ve Eaten Here 3 Times (2 Delivery 1 Dine In ) Before & Never Had A Issue Before The Incident That Took Place On 2/15/24. I Decided To Order Delivery Because They Are Just A Little Cheaper Then Competitors & I Like How They Plate It In The Pans. This Time Everything Was Going Smooth Until I Noticed An Issue With My Crablegs. I Called The Store Immediately. I Thought I Was Getting The Normal Run Around But The Owner Actually Did Reach Out & Went Out His Way To Make Things Right ! That Really Shocked Me ! He Did Make Things Right ! For His Courtesy I Just Wanna Say This is The Place To Eat With Your Family & Get A Great Boil & Seafood ! Because He Made Things Right I Will Continue To Support This Business ! I Just Felt Like This Should Be Shared Because The Way He’s Involved In His Business & He Went Above & Beyond To Make Things Right It’s Seriously Unbelievable“
“Great food for me... though hubby said the shrimp he ordered was fried too crispy, which he is a big fan of seafood, especially shrimp.Dietary restrictions: I cannot tolerate shell fish but I had the baked fish instead which had a delightful taste. Quite enjoyable. Though I had to inquire if any of the non shell fish on the menu had contact / cooked /fried with any of the shelled fish menu items due my severe allergic reaction to any shell fish items.“
“I went on the weekend with my family and it was the best seafood boils we’ve had in Richmond. The works sauce medium is my top recommendation for the boil bags. The wings and fried food were really good too. They were busy, but food came out on time and service was outstanding. Highly recommend this establishment!“
“We tried this spot out today for my birthday. I was craving some good seafood. My husband and I were not disappointed! I was doing the happy dance in my seat while peeling some amazing shrimp, lobster tail and crab legs in awesome Twisted sauce. We will definitely be going back! What a wonderful surprise this place was! Our waitress was so sweet, fun and attentive to us. Shout out to Antashia! I'm already trying to plan our next trip to Twisted Crab!“
“Had a night out with the Lady, it took a second to get seated, & there wasn't anywhere to wait that wasn't in the way of the wait staff, but we were seated in a nice corner section, making it very easy to hear my girlfriend, despite it being quite bustling, we had the branzino & the napolese spaghetti with squid, scallops, mussels, etc, I am finishing the leftovers now, two days later & it is still delicious. Would give 5 stars if there was a lobby or waiting area.“
“HI GUYS THIS PLACE IS AMAZING, as long as you aren't being served by the guy with glasses ?, then you're good. Prices are amazing. The owner and staff respects people of all colors and nationality. The food is safe, it will save you if you're on your last dollar and need something for $6-$9 full plates. SUPPORT THEM THEY GOT YOU. just request not to be around the dude with glasses. Enjoy“
“This is my favorite seafood boil restaurant and probably the 5th time I’ve come here since they opened (also ordered plenty of to go orders and I always leave satisfied. We dined here on Valentine’s Day and were seated immediately. The restaurant is spacious so I don’t think I’ve ever waited long. Our server Darrell was phenomenal.The food as usual did not disappoint. I love love the Cajun fried rice and catfish sliders (no tartar, add lettuce, remoulade sauce on the side) and had been looking forward to those for a week. We tried the battered buffalo wings for the first time and they were cooked and seasoned perfectly; would definitely order again. We also did a custom boil with 1/2 lb of each: crab legs, shrimp, sausage with the boil bay sauce and was the perfect amount for us. 10/10 experience per usual!“
“The food was great! Along with the customer service! I had the seafood fries, bang’n shrimp and the kids nuggets/tenders. I was late to a birthday celebration so I didn’t get to try anything fancy. Everything came out quick, with no issues. Their bathroom was super clean. I recommend trying, especially during their Thursday Happy Hour!“
“I’ve been eating at Sams for over 5 years. And they have never disappointed in any level. The seafood is always fresh and the greatest thing about Sams is you can call in your order, wait while it is prepared and talk it up with the owner who is super cool and show gratitude for your business. Yes there is only one Sams and people around the city loves his food. Also Sams has prepared southern foods. The ribs are to die for, the baked chicken is so tender with your choice of fresh vegetables. Way to go Sams! You and your staff are AWESOME! See you soon bro“
“Celebrated a friend's birthday and it was a good time! I had the loaded Cajun rice, fish and crabcakes! We had oysters and boil bags and THE DRANKS!!! LAWWTY THEM DRANKS!! We stopped to give the bartender his very own tip drill because he was very intentional in making our bday cocktails! Nice ambiance. Clean environment and restrooms. It wasn't too busy when we went but we did have a little wait for our food and drinks. Overall great vibe!Vegetarian options: Vegetable stir fry and other meat free options.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly environment. There are adult music and karaoke nights as well as local DJs sometimes.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp entrance from parking lot. Restaurant is floor level with a stage. There are seated areas that have one stair as well.“
“We visited tonight as we recently discovered how relaxed and inviting Stony Point is. We enjoyed a charcuterie board and drinks and especially the friendly staff. As our dog was watching from the door, they offered to deliver our food outside, then went back for a carafe of water for us. Delicious food and outstanding service, next time we’ll be trying the cheesecake and coffees too.“
“This restaurant has never let me down. I was ordering from them off of a delivery app but I finally decided to save myself some money and visit them in person. The staff was super friendly and the food was really good. I recommend the sausage neapoletana it has been my go to. Highly recommended!“
“Decided to try this place out with a few friends after it was highly recommended by my brother. Glad we came here when we did, because we all thoroughly enjoyed our time here.The Food: I went with the Molcajete Mazatlan. All the seafood on the dish was cooked perfectly. The squid, fish, shrimp and more were all flavorful and delicious! I had no idea what it was when I ordered it, so when the food came out, the meal was huge! Towered with seafood in tasty seasoning.The Service: Service was incredible! The waitress and staff were very friendly and had constant check ups. Water refills were always on point and food came out in a timely manner.The Atmosphere: The decor was nice, very true to the Mexican decor and the overall setup of the tables and spacing was good.Overall, a 5/5! Highly recommend Las Palmas!“
“BEST SEAFOOD BOIL IN RVA. Just wanted to get that out there. Now, I've been going to sauce & toss since 2020, and they never disappoint. Lately it has been renovated to have a convenience store in half of it and the other half has seats for dinning. This is interesting but I guess it works for them. The overall vibe is casual, the decor and the overall "sea" theme is really cute. The service is always great and they are very attentive and kind. My bf and I always get bucket #4 and we got it spicy. I have noticed that the portions have gotten a lot smaller over the years. It's incredibly delicious. Then we get the Korean sweet chili wings which is also a FAVORITE of mine on the menu and the fries. I would rate this 20/10. It's so good! It's a little pricey I do have to say, our total was $120 before tip.“
“I ran to write this review!! I’ve not gotten service as great at as I had at this Skrimp Shack. First the food , the food was kept warm for us since it took over 40 minutes for us to arrive. The shrimp the catfish and the whiting sandwich were phenomenal.Then the owner who I thought was the manager took my drink cups filled my drinks got me ketchup which you normally have to make yourself offered me cup holders and insisted I take them he held the door open for me and was so pleasant.Sir you’re amazing. Thank you so much.We are from New Jersey we were just visiting family and to receive this type of service is wonderful. Thank you Thank you Thank you. I hope you open more restaurants because your customer service is terrific! Thank you again“
“I don't know why I haven't heard about this place! Just happened to pass by it after my son's doctors appointment and am glad I stopped in. I got ox tails, but man, that food was soo good make you want to slap your momma ( Friday after next reference for those in the slow seats, lol) I definitely will be coming back and encourage all my foodies to try this place at least once!“
“My team just had the best dinner at The Mantu in RVA .Amazing upscale Afghan food. Chef Hamidullah Noori puts such love and care into his food and you can taste it! His heart for the community and those who are finding their way encourages all to do just a little better.Our party was open to trying as many things as we could. Favorite and most surprising appetizer- potato skins, most favorite entree was a tie between the sea bass and lamb. The veggie dumplings were so good too. Lots of veggie options. Favorite dessert was the saffron cake.. Did I mention the very attentive service? They were so welcoming and helpful. Whether you are looking to try some new flavors, need a good date night, or just want a great meal I highly recommend The Mantu! Reservations are a good idea. They also have great lunch options. I can't wait to go back!Vegetarian options: Loved the vegetable dumplings and grilled veggiesParking: Plenty of parking in a safe, well lit lot.“
“I can't give it a 5 because the food is good but they run out of food. The customer service is good, but it takes forever to get it. I wish they had a way to order before you get there because otherwise, you are standing outside in a long line cold,hot, rain,or snow.“
“My parents go here at least twice a month. Whenever I join them I’m all about the shrimp chimichangas. Everything is solid, service is great!Vegetarian options: Whole section of vegetable and cheese based dishesKid-friendliness: Lots of kids and familiesWheelchair accessibility: There’s a ramp inside front door“
“Very clean restaurant, Very Tasteful. The Crab Cakes were amazing- just absolutely delicious. The artichoke crab dip was beyond.Jared was the best waiter. He was kind, his poise was refreshing and made you feel comfortable. he was funny, he was genuine and it just made for a great experience on top of the great food..I was upset I made my reservation for short pump vs down town. BUT it was such a great experience I will definitely be choosing Short Pump location again next time.“
“My boyfriend picked up lunch for us at this location. He got the snow crab leg boil with corn, potatoes and sausage, I got the Sha Bang Bang Shrimp(comes with rice) & an order of their Cajun fries. Both orders were PHENOMENAL, and according to my boyfriend the staff was very helpful and friendly. We definitely will be coming back here. My food is pictured, shrimps were giant and extremely flavorful. The rice was high quality and you could tell they rinsed it and seasoned it with care. The fries were SO tasty and crispy. Cannot say enough about how good this food was.“
“If you’re in town for a night or two and staying downtown, you have to try Rappahannock! I was referred by a friend who used to live here. It was lively and fun (loved the music choices), the food was amazing (try the baked oysters), and the staff was attentive and friendly. I’ll be back next time I’m in town for work!“
“If you come here come for the 90s italian atmosphere. Weird nostolgia kickMozerella stix - Only get fresh not takout. Mid at best marinara.Mozerella mix not very goey, hence get hot.Fries- over cooked extra brown. Ok for being that.Chicken parm - slight chlorine taste in chicken. Might still eat again?Pizza veggie - mid' not greasycheaper end of price range is +“
“I hosted a bridal shower at maggianos and it was amazing from start to finish! Even the hosts were very attentive and professional. 10/10 and I will definitely host more events with them when they arise! We have two vendors attend as well, Indi Wilb Photo Booth/Photography & Richmond Flower Truck with their flower cart.“
“The owners are super nice and accommodating, they explain each dish in detail. The food is made to order and super fresh, and came out fast. The food is absolutely amazing, will definitely be back when I’m in the area. The dining area is extremely clean and spacious!“
