Up in the VIP room, there was NO count down or anything - it was 2024 and we didn't even realize it - so much for our special midnight toast in the VIP Lounge! While I didn't know one song the band played, I was assured they were 90s songs. the advertisements should have said ONE STYLE of 90s music.. this event can be great....Just needs some work to it ... especially when people are paying extra!”

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.”

There is a new manager with pins on his hat, sorry I can’t remember the name, who says he loves a store with a drive threw and it shows. Five people and I challenge another five person team work as efficiently as they did while still being a delight first thing in the morning.

A few minutes later, the owner, Tysean, opened the door and offered to go back in the kitchen and cook something for us. We couldn’t pass that offer up. We waited for a few minutes, and he brought us out some of the best chicken I’ve eaten in a long time along with some, nicely seasoned potato wedges and hot buttery honey biscuits.

Lost Letter 2939 W Clay St, Richmond Italian • $$$

“But for Google we might not have found the plain, unmarked door, but stepping inside is like entering an oasis. After a drink at the bar (we had a reservation but it was so beautiful, we asked to sit on the patio on arrival and they needed a moment to arrange it), we were shown out to the lovely patio area. Neatly walled off from the outside and with a roof to prevent the weather from ruining your meal, it's a pleasantly peaceful space - well lit even after sundown and spaciously arranged. The menu is reasonably brief but still difficult to choose from, and we finally settled on two antipasti and two 'pasta' dishes (the risotto lives in the same section) after we were advised they were perfectly entree sized.The burrata and beef tartare were delicious, especially the former with its blood orange, hazelnuts, and what I believe were slivers of fennel. I will confess a note of puzzlement, since neither appeared to come with its own bread (we ordered bread and olive oil separately) as if one were expected to eat it with a spoon- the potato listed as a tartare ingredient was definitely delicate crispy crumbs, not crisps as I expected. A second plate of bread was provided (and extra olive oil, though this was honestly wasted) without delay on request though.The mushroom risotto packs a heavy earthy punch. It's cooked well, and quite filling, perhaps heavier than might be expected. The Meyer lemon bucatini was a light, airy flavor, a touch sweet as opposed to savory, much like the citrus and burrata. I demolished it entirely, though I probably could have been satisfied with less than I did end up eating in total. Sensibly, I took the tiramisu home. It traveled well and was delicious once I had the space in my stomach to consume it.All in all a beautiful experience, the only thing ordered that wasn't consumed was a milk punch- Do not be fooled by the list of ingredients, it is extremely sweet, but the staff replaced it for me without protest, and my corpse reviver was immaculate. We would absolutely go back, though the price point is to be taken seriously, it is not a place to go on a budget.Vegetarian options: There are a number of things which are vegetarian (it's a small menu) and they are reasonably clearly marked. It is still probably wise to ask about things like the risotto, since you never know what broth is used.Dietary restrictions: There is a very short menu and no real room for substitutions here. Depending on what your dietary restrictions are, it may not be doable.”

The restaurant is easy to miss with a relatively nondescript storefront, but inside is welcoming and tastefully decorated with Japanese poster-style art. There are both tables and bar seating; the space is a little narrow, and the tables are all on the smaller side, so I'm not sure if it would be the best place to come with a very large party. But it was perfect for meeting up with a friend after work. The friendly server greeted us quickly. I ordered the "Southern Cali" specialty roll, which was basically a fried California roll with spicy mayo. It was delicious! It came out warm, which we did not expect, but it was so flavorful. Overall a great experience, I'll definitely return.”

“What a lovely hidden gem in the heart of Bellevue. Excellent from start to finish! From the FOH crew, to the delicious food, to the amazing cocktails, to the fair prices, and understated, but very cool decor, I'm definitely impressed.I've been there about three times now, so this review is long overdue. This is regarding my most recent visit, but they've all been consistently wonderful.We started with the chips and Buffalo dip, which is probably the best I've ever had. They make the chips in house and they're absolutely perfect! Not too salty which always ruins the chips and dip appetizer at other restaurants for me.I then had a Cesar salad with both chicken AND shrimp (I'm a protein gal) and while yes -- who can screw up a salad? -- it was perfect with fresh ingredients and (what I suspect to be) homemade croutons. I didn't ask but it was pretty evident. Further, I absolutely detest soggy salad and this isn't it. The lettuce was very crisp, they didn't overdo it with the dressing, and did I mention the croutons? lolI washed all of this down with probably the best Moscow Mule (done right -- should we call them Ukraine Mules now?), and even though I was beyond full, we finished it off with a shared slice of divine Key Lime pie. Seriously, run, don't walk.The service was quick and personable. Our meal was quick (I recommend getting there early for the lunch rush) and spot on in every aspect. I also want to mention there's a small patio out front, so we will have to try that next time. We will definitely be going back!”

Even the olive oil was clearly high quality. For my meal, I opted for the crespelle pasta special, which was basically like a pasta crepe with spinach, bechamel, and cheese with marinara. It was so good and not sickeningly filling, which was an added plus. It let me save room for their lemon mascarpone cake for dessert! Service was prompt and friendly. I was glad we were able to score a table on a rainy Wednesday evening. For busier times, I'd definitely book a reservation.”

Richbrau Brewing 5 S 20th St, Richmond Brewery • $$

“It’s a great brewery, however, the menu isn’t as extensive as others and has little variety. I wish they experimented with more German and Belgian-style beers. The past year I’ve been coming I haven’t seen any besides the Octoberfest which was GREAT! :) IPA’s, lagers, & stouts are mass produced in this country and not everyone enjoys them. All in all, I do love Richbrau and will continue to return. It’s worth a visit.”

Tipsy Crab 1700 E Main St, Richmond Seafood • $$

“Simple menu. Amazing food, very well prepared without costing a fortune. Best hushpuppies ever. Definitely try the Tipsy Crab fries. ? Great service too. Very friendly and on point. Would definitely go back.Also, love the old building vibe with original tin ceilings and even walls with painting of a blue crab.Parking: We went on a Wednesday night, so had no problems getting street in front of the restaurant. I was very glad of that bec hubby and I walk with a cane.Kid-friendliness: I probably wouldn't bring kids here? It's casual enough, but other than fries & wings, not sure if food options would suit kid's palate. But, you never know.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to use to get into the restaurant. It requires the opening of a gate to access (front of restaurant has a metal fence around it.) So, WC user may need some assistance. Didn't check the bathroom.”

Hot Pot 757 7502 W Broad St, Richmond Asian • $$

“Had a great family dinner at the HotSpot 757. It was a very diffirent and unique way to spend a special night. The restaurant offers two ways to cook your food. One is using a hot plate to boil soup that you add a variety of different meats, vegetables and dumplings. The type of soup I ordered was Chinese Szechuan. Although it tasted awesome it was really hot. I’ve been eating Szechuan for years and never experienced a hot version like this one. You can also cook raw meat to you choosing on the center piece table grill. I ordered the spicy pork and beef and both were delicious. There is also fresh fruit and different sauces located in the center of the restaurant for you to enjoy.”

“Veronica was our phenomenal waitress tonight. 10/10 service and guidance through the menu and questions we had since it was our first time. Everything about the food, service, and atmosphere was top notch. I got the calamari, broiled seafood combination, and bread pudding. Everything was phenomenal. Calamari was lightly breaded and perfectly crisp. The crab cakes had a very unique flavor that I enjoyed, and the scallops and shrimp were cooked perfectly. Finally the bread pudding was fantastic, but my friend got the classic zookie which was definitely the winner. This is definitely top of my list for my next trip to Richmond.”

“Visited Perry's recently with high expectations. The restaurant has great atmosphere. The staff was great, especially our waiter. I was overly impressed with his knowledge, attentiveness, and desire to make our experience the best that he could.Unfortunately there were some problems with the food. 1 steak was completely the wrong cut and size that was ordered. Of 7 of us at the table, 6 felt the steaks were way over salted. Make note that I put extra salt on everything I eat, and I still felt like the salt overwhelmed the expensive Koji filet I ordered. I continued to eat mine, and enjoyed it for what it was. 2 people felt their steaks were overdone compared to what they ordered. Then both said that 10 minutes later it looked like the iron plates had continued to cook the meat and they looked approaching medium well done. I do recognize that all of the food was high quality, but it seems like we had at least 1 person in the kitchen that was well undertrained, and thus caused our issues.3 other things struck me:Many times I will continue to eat bread at the meal, but the remaining bread was removed when the food came out. I choose a smaller steak to eat since there are sides, but when my steak was finished my plate was removed, leaving me nothing to continue eating any sides from. I was surprised that the seafood tower did not have a side of melted butter to dip in, as the delicate flavor lobster and crab can be easily overwhelmed by the robust sauces that came with the appetizer.Despite the issues, I recognize the potential for the restaurant to achieve being a top end choice. So would I return ? Yes. But I am concerned that I would have to be more demanding if similar problems occurred. When I go out, I don't want to have to be that way, because it reduces the enjoyment for my party, and leads to a potentially unpleasant night out for everyone. At this price level, it should be nothing less than perfection.”

My beef brisket was one of the worst I have had in years. The beef was tough and dry. My wife had the bliss bowl with chicken. It was overflowing the bowl which made it hard to eat and the hummus was fairly tasteless. We will try Mosaic for dinner again, but I believe the restaurant is under new ownership.

Food has been perfect for everyone every time (except I'm upset they took away the jackfruit entree). Great place for anyone to eat - meat eaters or vegans. With that jackfruit platter it was enough for me to have another full meal at home...

We had just missed the sunday crowd & live music but the vibes were still good & the playlist they had on definitely had us jammin lol. We ordered some cocktails which were made by the other owner, Bee & they were delicious, perfectly balanced. We decided to split 2 entrees, the Peruvian chicken & per Marvins recommendation , the shrimp & grits. The chicken was big , juicy & full of flavor. The shrimp & grits were soooooooo freakin good im still talking about them 2 days later, i probably had 2 bites left and took it home with me so i could experience the flavor again as a late night snack lol .

And of course they’re specialty in-house dipping sauce was up to its normal fireworks.This location had decent numbers of staff and were attempting to pull off a Chick-Fil-A style service model in the drive through but you could tell they were really not used to it.The atmosphere was clean and normal.Vegetarian options: Just Fries or just bread.Dietary restrictions: It’s chicken and potatoes and bread fast food. Fairly simple stuff. They can leave something off the list but If you’re allergic to something look elsewhere.Parking: It was midday on a weekend so the place was packed and it took a moment to find a spotKid-friendliness: No play place but there are chicken fingers so…Wheelchair accessibility: It’s all up to ADA standards as are most places these days”
