“The margaritas are really tasty! And the Birria Quesadillas are amazing!”

“Just came from an amazing lunch with my 3 kids..... The food was outstanding, the service was great and the atmosphere was very easy going with great blues music! Not your average fast food barbecue, this is the real thing... good, tasty, and the best smoked flavor! Right across from the airport, easy to get to..... Will be back often!”

“I have been a patron of this establishment for over 30 years and in all that time I have never been asked to pay a gratuity fee. I have had birthday parties , baby showers and rehearsal dinner. I realize there was six in my party. Paying by two different checks. The owner whom my kids played with growing up tells me its on the menu that the its up to the server degression to use it or not. You know where it is on the menu???? All the way down at the bottom paste the food items. In smaller print. Sad to say I will no longer be a customer here thanks to the sever Miranda”

“I’ve been wanting to check this place out for awhile. We stopped by this past Friday night to grab dessert on the way home after having dinner in shockoe bottom. Felt welcome as soon as we walked in. I could see this is a spot locals love. I let her know my son only wanted dessert and she didn’t hesitate to recommend Momma Doc’s. He ended up ordering the brownie sundae. Let me tell you, it must’ve been delicious cause he scarfed it down like he hadn’t eaten all night 😂. We will definitely be back. The menu was extensive, and the vibe was chill.”

“We stopped in on our way through Richmond for lunch. It's a cute little local spot, lots of families and friendly faces. The staff was kind, and our food was served promptly. My husband enjoyed his veggie burger, and I loved my cheeseburger and cappucino ice cream.”

“If I could give them 6 stars I would! $3.79 asada taco is a great price! I got 4. The green sauce (I don’t know the name, owner please let me know 🙂) is sooooo good. Will definitely be coming back!”

“We ate at the Mechanicsville location on our way home from out of state. I always order a chimichanga every time I have Mexican, which is often. I ordered one today with ground beef. When it was brought out to me it looked like a taquito ( a 1/3 of the size). A manager came over and was not happy when I told him that. He said that was their normal size chimi’s. To top it all off when I took my first bite It was shredded beef instead of ground beef. I put do NOT RECOMMEND and do not know what happened and now I cannot change it!!!!!!’”

“Nice new gas station in the area. Getting in and out of the parking lot is less than ideal and not large vehicle or trailer friendly just FYI. But the building and lot are well maintained and clean”

“One of the best chicken sandwiches I’ve had and I’ve had some decent birds. Hands down, top #3. Check it out. $10.99 Banging sandy with fries.”

“This was a very pleasant surprise! Our dinner was excellent, the waitress was charming and attentive, and I had the best "skinny " margarita ever!!! Cannot wait to go back!”

“All was great good good and fast service”

“This was my first time staying at this hotel, and despite its proximity to the airport, is very quiet inside and out. The room I had was impeccably clean, comfortable, with everything in sound working order. The room furnishings were great, and I really liked the bedside connectively, including conventional power outlets and USB ports on both sides of the bed. I did place an order at the Bistro, the in-house restaurant. And the food I ordered was excellent. The location is nice enough, and within walking distances to several restaurants. However, the only parking lot entrances are the two street sides ones off of Williamsburg Road, and there isn't one that is off the road that leads to a couple other hotels. It would be nice if there was. It's just a minor quibble though. As for the hotel staff, they were courteous and helpful. Overall, I was impressed with the hotel, and can see myself staying here again in the future.”

“almost had to bring out that ww waffle house smackdown on a customer who was giving the wonderfully armed staff crap about his eggs. don't. It's waffle House”

“I went over there Monday, the food was cold and people was yelling in the back. I understand it is night time but its not a reason to not be professional. The cashier (mikera) and a girl through the drive thru was really rude to me like its not their fault if the food was cold and my order was wrong. After waiting almost 30 min a girl helped me with my order and she was the only one with a good energy, she apologized almost 5 times and got my order did again. She was the the person yelling the name(katherine). Yall need to review yall team and get the teenagers to actually do what they supposed to do. The manager was not even here.”

“I had a surprisingly great experience at this Burger King. While the surrounding neighborhood and the exterior of the building look a bit run down, don’t let that discourage you from stopping in. The inside was clean, well-maintained, and much more inviting than I expected.

The staff was friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service. My order was prepared quickly, and the food was fresh, hot, and tasted great. It’s clear that the employees take pride in keeping the restaurant clean and making sure customers have a positive experience.

Overall, this location exceeded my expectations, and I would definitely return when I’m in the area. Great job to the team!”

“Well researched food, solidly composed cocktails, and a warm interior make The Roosevelt one of the most talked about restaurants in RVA currently. Chef Leah is as much a researcher as she is a good chef. Being a long time food writer who has been on assignment in many kitchens, its no surprise to me that Leah has carved out a reputation for herself in Richmond recently. She sources a lot from local farmers, adheres often to seasonal common sense, and takes inspiration from her reading and research on Soul Food, Southern food, and Virginia food. I wouldn't classify prices at The Roosevelt as cheap but also wouldn't classify them as extravagant either. Marketed by many as a "neighborhood spot" I always see The Roosevelt as a great date night spot, particularly for those who might fancy themselves foodies. Congrats to Leah and The Roosevelt on their recent James Beard nod. In my opinion, well deserved.”

“I'm addicted and can't wait to hopefully have more tomorrow 😋❤️ All the food was so flavorful and the presentation is amazing.”

“My hazelnut latte with cherry syrup was unique and super good to drink.

Eggplant tart was flaky and just spicy enough for me to enjoy with each sip of my drink

Located in a corner of the street the place was easy to find, they have indoor and limited outdoor seating options, very friendly staff.

Ngl it was worth taking the trip from NoVA to Richmond after all the reels I consumed🫠

10/10 for the coffee🔥”

“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!”

“Delicious ice Cream and cones!”

“We love their commitment to great food, their spirit of innovation, and the many gluten-free options they offer!”

“Tabbi provided wonderful service for our group traveling for business. She answered all our questions and provided good recommendations. She made our hectic travel day better!”

“Free cookies some days. They post a sign on the door. Super tasty cookies and brownies. Folks were very helpful assisting me in choosing the right items. A little pricey...but sized to share and very good. Very pleasant experience. Give them a try!”

“Brunch and entertainment 💯💯💓💓💓🙌🙌 A time was definitely had…. Loved every minute of it.”

“Best birria egg rolls in Richmond Virginia, food was exceptional 💯💯🫶🏾🫶🏾”

“Food was outstanding, from the Cobia special to the rhubarb hand pie. Excellent food would highly recommend”

“My dinner here was the most memorable and unique dining experience I’ve had in a very long time and it was the highlight of my weekend visit. If I lived in the RVA area I would be a regular here! Love the campy decor, drinks, and eccentric clientele. Reminds me of a few long gone places we used to frequent along Brooklyn’s outer edge.”

“We had a wonderful dinner tonight at Grisette. Great help from the servers, Bayla and Mira, on all of our choices. Had an exceptional, in both taste and value, bottle of wine. Everything was wonderful. Thank you for a great night out for my husband and me.”

“They have really nice staff, fast service, and some of the best boba in Richmond.”

“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!”
