“I highly recommend Front Porch for those who are gluten free. I am extremely sensitive and I had no issues. The GF bread was normal size! The Reuben was yummy, the potato salad was delicious and creamy, and the pound cake was so so good!!”

“The best pizza in Bon Air!! The rest of the menu is incredible too our family loves their paninis and sandwiches. Great staff and atmosphere! Our go to take out!”

“How can something be so beautiful and so yummy at the same time?! I absolutely love Perk for their coffee drinks, gluten free bagels sandwiches, their staff is the best… you def gotta check em out!”

“The only place in the greater Richmond area that give you want you order. Not something like the dish.. not something that is based on the dish.. no something that only looks good but lacks taste.. NO. This place is no gamble..it is great every time.”

“Hello, I just went through the drive-through to get sweet tea for my wife and two-year-old son. As I pulled into the parking lot, the woman at the podium handing out receipts gave me a dirty look, possibly because of my loud exhaust. I proceeded to the line to order my beverage, and while I waited, she handed receipts to the two cars in front of me but stared at me and my car with the same look. She didn’t offer me a receipt, which my wife needs to scan for points on an app that helps us financially. I had to ask for one when I got to the window to pick up my drink. I noticed this number on the receipt, which belongs to the operator, Jason Umberger. I believe the employee may need some coaching on maintaining professionalism and not letting personal judgments affect her behavior at work. As a manager for a company in Virginia that sponsors VCU, the Flying Squirrels, and many others, I understand the importance of professional conduct in the workplace. This was 8/22/23 @ 6:19PM.”

“Prices were reasonable for the portion you get.”

“I love the donuts and customer service was amazing”

“We love Joes Inn but decided to stop in for Joe's Out and it did not disappoint! The cookies were so soft and delicious, and espresso oreo ice cream is the bomb.”

“I love the sub's these guys make. The Service and subs are always great. I only gave it 4 stars because I don't particularly care for the fries and lemonade...”

“Great xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcccxxxxxxxxxxxxx”

“Phenomenal flavors paired together for sweet and savory dishes. Unique menu options they change regularly! So yummy 😋”

“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!”

“We’ve had phenomenal meals, drinks, and service here. We’ve also had underwhelming experiences on all counts here, including our most recent visit. Service here is typically stellar but last week it took 20 minutes to be greeted by our server once seated, and then another 20 after ordering drinks to receive those. This was at 8 pm on Wednesday night when they were not overly busy. My husband’s pasta was very undercooked and the sauce was just OK. My fish was fine but it’s the only main on their menu that someone who is gluten sensitive and avoids red meat (and the fish is served on rice with sausage) can have. So despite an often changing menu, this fact never seems to change. We’ll almost certainly go back and try again but do wish their hits outnumbered their misses.”

“Fresh smoothies and juices! Great customer service and family oriented.. will be back!”

“Delicious ice Cream and cones!”

“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.”

“5 stars. so good. workers are nice and the place is clean and drinks are so good and cheap”

“We had another delicious meal with fine service and a leisurely time to talk and enjoy the atmosphere. From the glass of wine served with tasty bread and olive oil before our appetizer arrived through to the coffee after dinner, we could not have been happier.”

“I got the teriyaki chicken bowl bc it’s my first time here. And it’s quite good. Veggies are fresh and chicken is flavorful. Will be back to try the banh mi.”

“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!”

“Great service, always a friendly greeting and a sincer "thank you!" And the donuts are incredible!!!”

“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.”

“The rockfish special was fantastic! Great service too. My wife and I enjoyed our dinner at the bar.”

“What a gem! We had the currywurst and a hot Italian sausage with mushrooms and cheese. Both were absolutely delicious. salad was refreshing and perfectly dressed. One of the best meals I have ever had. We were even able to get some packaged meat to go. The staff were so helpful and kind. Get one of everything!”

“Made from scratch -- great food! Attractive interior and very kind waitress. Will be back!😊”

“Absolutely delicious! Very friendly staff, great prices, and the food is outstanding. Child friendly as well! We will definitely be coming back to Jannat!”

“Sarah was amazing! She kept our drinks filled and table cleared, making our dining experience one for the books �”
