Restaurants in Chester

“Very good food”

“My husband and I came in from out of town, and decided we wanted pizza for dinner. We had our dogs with us, so we would need someplace that was dog friendly. It was a little chilly outside, but we dined on the patio. We ordered a medium “works” pizza and a small fry. Portions were huge! Service was fantastic and food was delicious.”

“Incredible butter chicken! Must resist eating here multiple times a week…”

“Their gyros are delicious and very filling. Their baklava, finikia, ek mek and chocolate macaroons are the best!! Come for the gyros, stay for the pastries!”

“Has been our date night spot for years. We have never been disappointed.”

“My first time. Dec 6. It was different and very pleasant. It's a wholesome place. I felt very welcomed. Im sure to meet many interesting new friends if I keep going. Definitely a change from other clubs. The beer was good and I'm not a beer drinker. They had wine too. I will try the wine next time. Now I know why the parking lot is packed when I pass by in my car. Im glad I finally gave it a try.”

“Great service-excellent Italian food”

“Fun place, plenty of ice cream flavors and styles. Just wish the paper on the sugar cones were not so tight. It gets stuck to the cone, and you can't fully enjoy the entire cone.”

“Best soft ice cream in the area! Always fresh and creamy, good size portions and priced reasonably. All staff are friendly and helpful. If not serving customers they are cleaning or restocking etc. If you order a quart it is fully packed, labelled and dated. Five stars!!!”

“I love the Village Grill ❤️🤗 The breakfast is Delicious, It’s a Great Place to Eat, I have never had anything that wasn’t good, The people were so Helpful an Nice,Glad to have a Mom an Pop small place to go eat an A Comfortable atmosphere!🤗👍”

“The staff is wonderful, atmosphere is terrific. The food is UH-mazing! Absolutely love going here!!!! I haven't had anything in there that I don't like! My only wish is that they would open up a restaurant here in Richmond on Midlothian Turnpike. That would be awesome!”

“Narita is run by a wonderful family, they have the best sushi in the area in small quaint atmosphere. It’s our favorite!! Support small business!”

“Hands down the best Mexican food in town great food/drinks/and atmosphere. The best servers and customer service.”

“Best and largest BBQ sandwich! Stew is amazing, too!”

“There phenomenal always great service fresh food always are go to”

“Every was fabulous 👌🏾. The food was great, well seasoned, I had the chicken and filet mignon with extra rice and extra veggies. The salad with ginger dressing was beautiful after that delicious soup starter. Even my 18 month old love the food and cook's presentation. I also had the carafe of plum wine. Take your time with it, it will sneak up on you, very 😋 though and lastly the sushi was a beautiful presentation. Overall a 10 out 10, make sure you are very careful walking in there the floors were a bit slick.”

“Good food. Very accommodating to large groups 👍🏻”

“There were six of us, and we each got something different. Everyone was very happy with the food and our server was great, too. Would definitely visit again if I’m ever in the area.”

“Amber is amazing. Always smiling and welcoming. Bingo on Wednesday are so much fun that I brought my whole family to come play. The food is also good. We enjoy the pizza, and the drinks are good also.”

“This is the best chicken that I've truly ever . I'm from Columbia, South Carolina this is my very first time in Virginia and I've never take any other chicken like this one. I got the brown sugar heat traditional wings. And let me tell you it's the best that I've ever put in my mouth. I'll most definitely be going to get more before I head back out to SC”

“waffles. covered hash browns with cheese onion jalapenos and chili”

“I decided that this year I would spend more time focusing on me. So I started a Tai Chi exercise program and jump started my journey by eating a healthy breakfast at IHOP. I was warmly welcomed and the hostess was very attentive to me although she was quite busy. I was seated within 10 minutes and well taken care of by my waitress. I ordered the 55+ Rise and shine w/coffee and logged a perfect breakfast without the work. Good food, peace and quiet, and a good pot of coffee 🫰🏾🫰🏾🫰🏾
Thanks IHOP! I will return”

“Stopped in recently and had a great experience. The staff was genuinely friendly, the place was clean, and my order was made exactly how I asked even with a bunch of changes. I got a steak hash brown bowl with no onions and no cheese, and I added mushrooms, tomatoes, and two over easy eggs. Everything came out right, cooked well, and tasted great. I also appreciated that she brought me water with no ice without any hassle. Solid visit.”

“Good service enjoyed myself”

“I go here often and love it. My only hate is that it's smoking so I can't come in or handle it when it's super smoky inside. \n\nFood is great, as is service. They often have great specials. They have pool and dart tournaments, live music, karaoke and more.”

“Really good food and super nice staff. Very friendly. Lots to do here. Darts, pool tables, music…”

“Great beer and good one hundred percent ✨”

“Not our first time going to Rivers band grill and will not be our last. The food was very tasty and so much less expensive than any other place we've been lately. Service was outstanding really nice folks. You get your money's worth here!”

“Always a great experience at Cracker Barrel.”

“Well First of all, I have to say the truth that I never been there or try any menu in this restaurant because I live in Thailand , but Why I have to give maximum stars for this restaurant? :) Because I have my special one who really love Thai food 😋 , lives not far from this restaurant and I want to make some surprise for him on Valentine’s day.

“Hadn’t been to Brock’s BBQ in many years, so decided to stop in for dinner being in Richmond for a visit. The food was great, the waitress smiling and very helpful. I’d recommend Brock’s to everyone for good food and laid back atmosphere.”

“I will never not reccomend. I’ve been getting the same thing for 8/9 years and it makes me feel at home with the flavors and portions! The staff is efficient, amazing, and friendly. And honestly this has been my favorite restaurant since i’ve moved to virginia!”

“Any other day I would give 5's across the board. 12/30/24 2:55pm. Went in and ordered lunch special. After waiting and watching people come and go they looked at me and asked what I was waiting for. Apparently they forgot my order. I was there 25 mins before I received my order. The normal young lady that's always there wasn't there. After my food got ready I got a thank you. No apologies. Will still visit because this is one of my favorite places. If I don't see the young lady I will pass.”

“I ordered the steak quesadilla. It came with salad and rice. The dish was tasty and of course you guys know I was looking for birria tacos😅. They don’t cook that here😫. My only request would be to have had my quesadilla cut in half or something. The top shell was pretty crisp so I wasn’t sure if I should pick it up but instead I just cut it 4 ways. It was nice and cheesy and the steak was nice and tender. Definitely recommend and will revisit”

“I want to personally thank the owners for helping me eat one of the only meals I can eat (I still cant keep it down because I am critically ill) but the food is so good and always so plentiful. They are so nice and have always been, ive been a patron forever! Thank you for my veggie lomein and sesame tofu!”

“Very good service very good food I highly recommend them never had any issues great place to eat thanks so much”

“This establishment certainly has the potential to become a highly favored dining destination. The online ordering process was notably efficient and straightforward, which was greatly appreciated. The portion sizes are quite substantial, making it an excellent option for those who enjoy sharing meals. The freshness of the food is commendable, although a touch more seasoning might enhance the flavor for some palates. While the tomatillo sauce was delightful, the chicken in the enchiladas seemed to lack the distinctive Mexican flavor profile I typically enjoy. Nevertheless, it was certainly palatable. I was unsure if the additional chips were complimentary or if they were part of my order, as I had specifically ordered chips and white sauce and received two bags. One bag was smaller and included a small white sauce and salsa. Had I been aware that chips were provided with all orders, I would not have placed a separate order for them. Perhaps it would be beneficial to advertise that all orders include a small portion of chips and salsa, but we will certainly be mindful of this for future visits. I anticipate returning to sample other menu items and will choose to dine in to experience the table service. Congratulations on a job well done, El Caporal!”

“Excellent customer service”

“The food is delicious. My new favorite food place. I ordered meatloaf, yams, Mac and cheese plus the dinner came with mashed potatoes. I also ordered bread pudding. All I can say is yummy”

“great fast service and cold beer”

“The place is great all around the chicken is incredible the employees are very nice the service is great as well you will not be disappointed in any way at all if you eat here and I highly recommend you do”

“Good food and drinks I like going there”

“Awesome little spot you need to come and see for yourselves. Definitely an at home feel food and atmosphere. Cool old school knick knacks and decor also a nice lol outside area to chill. Absolutely will be returning.”

“I rushed in, last minute and same day needing a savior. These ladies showed me options, I created what I wanted and they brought it to life in less than 6 hours! I slightly dropped it so it shifted on the plate, it still got tons of compliments and was DELICIOUS!!!”

“We believe we’ve found our new favorite Mexican cantina. This was our second visit (12/16/2025) for lunch, and from the moment we walked in until we left, we were treated like family. The drinks and food were truly top-shelf, and the service exceeded our expectations. Everything—from the atmosphere to the flavors—was outstanding. We will absolutely be regular diners here. They do a fantastic job.\n\nv/r,\nDr. Ken and Lorna King”

“I had to place a large catering order and Chintan was so helpful! he made perfect signature creation recommendations, was patient with my many questions and bad math, and had my order well organized and ready when promised. the staff also said hello every time I walked into the store, which was nice.
my event was a hit - everyone loved the ice cream! thanks Chintan for your expertise!”

“We loved it!!!!
Had Chicken fried rice, And the General Tso's chicken.....
Was plenty of food for 2 people....Even had enough to carry home with us!!!!”

“Great Customer service and a well run store.”

“The drive thru was wrapped around the building and it moved so fast die to staff taking orders while you are in line. Don't let a long line discourage you, 15 cars move faster than 2 at other fast food restaurants.”

“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”

“So I had a large order 9 subs and not only were these the best, freshest subs I’ve ever gotten from any subway Ive ever been to… but being it was a large order they even marked on each sub to match the receipt number so I didn’t have to dig through each one to see what it was!!! Very satisfied and thinking from now on this will be the only subway I go to!!!”

“Even though there's usually quite the line at this location they are exceptionally courteous and always take care of their customers with the utmost caring concern for them during that 5 minutes that you're interacting with them always something new to try coming out throughout the different seasons so even though they tend to sell out quick there's usually something always pretty good to pick from if you're looking for something you to try. I would definitely recommend this location it's the one I go to.”

“the absolute BEST chinese restaurant in the rva & surrounding areas!!! the lady at the front is always so sweet when i come in. the food is so fresh and is so flavorful. i’m always recommending this place to anyone i can!!!”

“Nice hangout. Music, singing, & bar staff - all you need on a Friday night special!”

“I come here often for the quesabirria, and it’s always amazing! They also have delicious tacos and burritos. The owners are very friendly and efficient. The food is hot and fresh everytime. One of my favorite food places!”

“Staff was friendly and food was delicious.”

“One of the BEST places to go to eat. Everything tastes great ! I have been coming here for years and I love knowing I will get exactly what I order, everything tastes the same after all these years.
Prices are very reasonable for the large portions you receive. They have the best Reuben sandwich and awesome potato salad. Definitely check it out, you won't be disappointed!!!!!”

“As others have said and I confirm, good food, reasonably priced, clean dining room and (equally) clean rest rooms.
Hostess/manager greeted us, helped us order (from many options) and delivered our food to the table piping hot.
So worth pulling off Rt 95. Thanks.”

“I went there last night (12/23/25) and the restaurant was impeccably clean. It even smelled like bleach and cleaning products. All surfaces were shiny and clean, the floor was spotless, and the toppings bar was well stocked and in perfect order. All of the machines were in working order and pristine.

I had seen a few negative reviews here about the cleanliness and service but my experience was 100% opposite. The employee was perfectly professional. I don’t leave many reviews but their above average cleanliness and readiness deserves a good review here.

I will agree that some of their flavor combinations are a bit odd. I recall mango & cake batter together. Mango would be better with the raspberry-pomegranate (which was combined with the new york cheesecake).”

“This Starbucks is in an building that was previously in a bank. The drinks are great Starbucks quality. This Starbucks seems to get a fair amount of traffic as they were out of the sugar cookie frap. I went through the drive through for this visit. With exception for the potholes exiting the drive through the environment could be improved. Overall service was friendly and Starbucks beverages were above average”

“The new burger that I ordered was excellent and The slushy Lemonade was delicious. The environment was nice and clean and the waitress was pleasant. I will be coming back.🌠🌠🌠🌠”

“If you're thinking about coming here on Sunday, get ready to throw elbows with the Episcopalians around 1230. I was seated at 1145. I was the only person in the house, but boy, did it fill up fast. Had the luncheon special Kung Pao chicken. Filling and full of flavor. Wasn't that spicy, so be adventurous and try it. Lunch comes with soup or egg roll / steamed or fried rice.”

“Friendly workers. Fresh vegetables (ya know... Sometimes places want to be holding on to those veggies about two days too long, but not here... They were fresh.) great value for a quick healthy meal.”

“This is the best Taco Bell period. I eat Taco Bell 3-4 times a month so I know what I’m talking about, it’s my favorite fast food tbh. I don’t mind going to the other ones if I HAVE to, but honestly I’d rather go out of my way just to go to this one. It’s cleaner than every other Taco Bell and the staff is 10/10, never had a bad experience.”

“Check out the new Pepicelli’s (Pizza Express)! It’s awesome customer service was exceptional as they asked me to check my order to make sure I was pleased! Who does that? Okay, our pizza was hot and delicious from crust to toppings……yummy! Can’t wait to try other choices on the menu. Congratulations Pepicelli’s! Welcome to the neighborhood!”

“very clean and friendly staff”

“The staff yesterday was amazing. Thank YOU guys for listening/ caring/ and giving my sweet pup, Ranger a pupcup. He loves them so much. The staff asked for photos because I told them how much he enjoys the weekly Starbucks pupcups.. They gave him an additional one. It's the small things. You guys truly made my day. Thank you so much. Customer service at its best. 15/10 experience. The best Starbucks to go to in the area.”

“Took a while to get to the register to place our order. Just a customer who has not been there before cashier was explaining items And doing a great job. Chicken frontega came out rather quickly And tasted great. Thank you”

“Best service and delicious food”

“usually goes to the other one in chester but since its closed came to this one the service was excellent very friendly”

“Very good service very good food I highly recommend them never had any issues great place to eat thanks so much”

“Great place”

“The young lady who helped me today, Ms.LiLi 😊, was absolutely amazing! She literally checked the order before handing it over and saw it was missing a sandwich and could have EASILY just gave it to me and moved on, because I was working a DoorDash order, but instead after seeing everyone busy, she went to the back and made the sandwich herself, finished packing it up and handed it to me. I just thought that was above and beyond and you don’t normally see that in fast food. So I just wanted to give her a shoutout on doing a good job! And she had a good attitude at the same time 😊😊 Thanks LiLi”

“The place is great all around the chicken is incredible the employees are very nice the service is great as well you will not be disappointed in any way at all if you eat here and I highly recommend you do”

“I went to Hooters in Chester for lunch today and sat at the bar, and it was such a great experience. Casey provided truly outstanding service — friendly, attentive, and made the whole visit feel welcoming from start to finish.

I took advantage of the buy 10, get 10 free wings special and ordered Parmesan garlic and mild- both flavors were absolutely delicious. The wings were cooked perfectly, and the fries were fresh, hot, and seriously good too.

Everything about this lunch hit the mark — great food, great service, and a relaxed atmosphere. Definitely a solid lunch spot, and I’ll 100% be back.”

“This morning we stopped by for breakfast. The drive had a busy line, yet the staff were keeping it efficient & running smooth. They were so nice it made my day. Out of all the McDonald I been to my whole life they were so heart warming. Best service ever !”

“to the waitress who we had today for mother's day I thank you! thank you for paying attention and helping the mama out🤦‍♀️ you were so sweet!”

“The drive thru was wrapped around the building and it moved so fast die to staff taking orders while you are in line. Don't let a long line discourage you, 15 cars move faster than 2 at other fast food restaurants.”

“This location was one of our best meals, and the team of young girls at front lines were awesome, very nice, friendly and welcoming. Great Job Team and to cooks…also great food”

“Great place”

Thanks IHOP! I will return”

“Dylan Jones was a fantastic worker when I was there. He was super nice to me and I even think he liked talking to me😉😉
But this past Sunday an employee named Jace seemed very lost.”

“Arleigh was incredibly kind and soft spoken. You can really tell how much bullshit the employees go through, and the fact that Arleigh managed to give quality service at almost midnight, is truly commendable.”

“Adam C is simply amazing! Every time I place a to go order, I look forward to seeing his smiling face. He is always prompt and courteous and makes sure my order is correct and I have everything I need. He is definitely a 5 star employee! Would give more stars if I could just because of him! You rock Adam!!!”

“Good food and drinks I like going there”

“Clerk was a little confused about tv promotion. But manager quickly settled the problem and provided great service. Crazy puffs were very tasty. Was first time I've had them. Will definitely order again.”

“Firstly, theyre very nice and I love chatting with and meeting other small business owners. Second the food is amazing! onion rings were on point, the mac and cheese is delish, cole slaw not too tangy and not too sweet. I missed the brisket, but went with the BBQ. Pork isnt my fave, but this was very tasty! Definitely did not disappoint. See yall again soon!”

“The food is great and the atmosphere is great. I've been here several times. would have given five stars every time til this last time. The service was terrible, and because of that, the tip reflected it. Many items were entirely forgotten and never brought to the table. Then, because she didn't get the tip she wanted, for the poor service rendered, the waitress decided to be a bit a of a see you next Tuesday to my wife. Rude, unprofessional, petty, and childish. Will not return. 0/5 stars, specifically for the terrible service and crappy demeanor.”

“Really great service—they make you feel very welcome from the moment you arrive. The food is delicious with plenty of options to choose from. The place is clean and comfortable, making it easy to relax and enjoy your meal.”

“I was recommended Fine Foods by Fernando by my philosophy professor, Devin Bray at Brightpoint Community College down the street. I walked into his classroom and smelled something delicious, so I asked him what he was eating. He told me there was a wonderful and affordable taco truck right down the road! I was on a bit of a budget, so this seemed right up my alley. After two classes I was starving so my mother and I stopped by Fernando's truck. I tried gorditas for the very first time. I am a picky eater, but I was feeling adventurous so I decided to try something new. I did not regret it! The gorditas were amazing, and since I told (who I assume was) Fernando I had never tried them before, he threw my gordita in for free! I loved the two different salsas included with the meal. I was told to be careful with the spice, but I ended up eating my gordita with the red sauce anyway. It was awesome! I've never had such a good spicy sauce before. My mother got a burrito norteño, and ended up splitting it with me since it was so filling. All in all, I think my mother and I (since she picks me up from school) will be loyal customers of Fernando's in the following months of the school year.”

“This Starbucks is a cut above all the rest. Great people and friendly, efficient service. Love that they give you a real plate or mug when you dine in too. I usually avoid Starbucks but this one does everything the right way.”
