“Give the is tavern your business. Seriously impressed with our waitress tonight and the entire team. We walked in at 8pm after a soccer game with 20 people. We were welcomed in, sat and out by 9:30pm. Just amazing service overall and the food was great! Next time we are back for Jeff Cup we will be back. Thank you for taking care of us tonight!”

“This place has the best burger I’ve ever eaten and I’m not exaggerating. I’m racking my brain trying to figure out how they made it so good. My fiance and I walked by and just smelled the place and knew it would be good so we went in and the servers were so nice the cocktails were good and the burger was spectacular. I think it was only for Halloween but this is my new favorite restaurant in Richmond.”

“I moved to the fan a year ago and Brazen quickly became my favorite spot. The food is absolutely amazing. The service? Even better. Finding Brazen gave me an amazing DELICIOUS place to come to after. I would would recommend 100 times over. I’ve never had a bad time here and it’s such a hidden gem. 10/10 recommend”

“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.”

“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!”

“My husband and I just ate here for the first time this evening and it was amazing. I had the taco salad with chicken and it’s one of the best salads I’ve ever had. My husband really enjoyed his bacon cheeseburger and tater tots. The portions are huge, neither one of us could finish. Everyone needs to come eat here. I need this place to succeed. I’m already planning my next trip back.”

“My family and I took my Mother there for her 91st birthday. In all there were 14 of us. The staff took great care of us. We ordered from the brunch menu. Everyone one of us had a wonderful time. The food was tasty, chef (AJ) even came out to say Happy Birthday to his Grandmother! Several of us said we will return again. The dinner menu looks amazing I wanted to stay for dinner but I had to head home and I was too full from brunch. I wish Sweet P's much success!”

“We came in for galaxy con this past weekend and I ran by this place on the open table app to get a Saturday reservation. Place had great reviews and i loved the pictures so I wanted to give it a try. I was very impressed! My husband and son loved their food. I had an issue with the first thing I ordered being too spicy so they nicely took it back and had me order something else. The burger was delicious ! They then took both meals off my tab for me for the inconvenience . Great service and will be back! Oh and the rooftop area is beautiful!”

“Emerald Lounge was our favorite food stop of the entire weekend. The decor is moody and tropical, the staff looked effortlessly cool, and honestly, I felt a little sexier just walking through the door. What a vibe. We ordered the crab Rangoon empanadas, pork lumpia, and Baja fish tacos, and every single thing was delicious. But those empanadas deserve a moment. Two beautifully golden empanadas with a sauce so good I wanted to dive in and swim around in it. Give me a spoon and a bowl of that sauce and I would be perfectly happy. Paired with the crispy pastry and creamy crab filling? I’ll be dreaming about them. The fish tacos had generous pieces of crispy fish on little corn tortillas, and the pork lumpia with chili sauce was another winner. Everything looked as good as it tasted, right down to the dishes it was served in. The portions were just right for us to share and try several things. Two Miami Vices with a little coconut rum floated on top had me feeling very good about our decision to start the weekend here. We enjoyed it so much that we seriously considered coming back for dinner the next night. Beautiful space, delicious food, and drinks that encouraged us to keep the night going. Already planning my next visit and my next order. Although those empanadas are absolutely coming back to the table.”

“The ambiance of the place was beautiful & such a lovely vibe. My girls & I came to celebrate a birthday and also came for the $5 margaritas & $5 lemon drops. I can say this was not my first time coming but I loved everything about my service this time it was only right I came and left a review.. My experience with my server was absolutely amazing! She was very welcoming, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. Her positive attitude, professionalism, and warm personality made the entire experience enjoyable. She checked on us consistently without being overbearing and made us feel valued as a customer. Even after explaining to us that they had a new system so she’s still learning as she’s goes incase she messes up & she did absolutely great. We would have never even noticed if she didn’t tell us. You can tell she genuinely cares about providing great service and making sure her guests have a wonderful experience. I would definitely come back and request for Asia again!”

“Loved it. Great views, amazing cocktails, perfect for late spring/early summer w a lovely breeze. Kid friendly, but don't be a jerk- if you are ordering food (for yourself or your kid) rub the two neurons together that it takes to understand how unfair it is to the staff to order food on the balcony - it SUCKS to have to get food to there, (and, shockingly!) even more than it sucks having to go back downstairs to order food. Just be a decent person, order drinks at the bar (like a normal person), and get your food downstairs close to the kitchen.... that way it is still warm when you get it, and you won't sound like a completely entitled dumbass when you complain about how long it took/how cold your food is, when you were too lazy to even try to go downstairs without the burden of an order.”

“Eggspectation Review Please run to Eggspectation @ Stony Point for your next brunch outing. This place was a 10 out of 10. Everything we had was amazing. Let’s start with the Gooey Goose Bread it was hot, fresh, and the perfect sweetness. Its sweet buttery taste made it hard to stop eating. It kind of reminded me of the Texas Roadhouse rolls but better. I don’t know if it was the bread or their honey butter but it was a similar taste. The outside shell was crunchy but the inside was soft butter bread, and you can definitely it was freshly baked. It sits in a pool this maple buttery sauce that is sooo good. The server said it would be 10-15 minutes but it was definitely worth the he wait. Next, let’s talk about the Shrimp and Grits. OMG!!! This tastes exactly like Shrimp and Grits supposed to taste. The grits were creamy, cheesy (cheese cooked into the grits), and seasoned. The actual grits were seasoned not just the sauce. And the grits were the perfect consistency for this dish. Not too thick but thick enough because the sauce that comes on shrimp and grits should loosen up the grits a little. The sauce was creamy but not too creamy with the perfect pepper and cajun seasoning. The sausage in the sauce was sliced as thin as a pepperoni, cut into pieces so it was sausage in every bite. The shrimp came with tail off which I prefer. It was layered and the presentation and perfect. You can could tell the cook takes pride in their work. The was one of the best shrimp and grits dishes I’ve had since being back home in the south (Gulf Coast). We also had the Shrimp and Crab Omelet which was the perfect seafood duo with the perfect blend of seasonings. The egg/stuffing ratio was perfect. The Orange Juice was freshly squeezed and you could definitely tell. I had a hot Salted Caramel Latte and it was so good, I finished it in like 5 minutes. Not too strong, could taste the salted caramel, and not too hot (that’s how I was able to finish it so quickly). We went during the week and early afternoon so it was not busy at all. The service was great as the kitchen staff did awesome. So much so that I stopped one of the cooks as the came out to let them know. Shout out to Stanford and his team, they did awesome job with each dish. This place is MUST try. I’ll definitely be back.”

“Where do I even begin? This place is incredible! Hands down, it has some of the best burgers and oysters in Richmond. Every bite was amazing, and the quality really stands out. What truly made the experience unforgettable, though, was the bartender, Oshane. His professionalism, attention to detail, and skill behind the bar are top-tier. He not only crafts excellent drinks but also creates such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. If you’re in Richmond or even just visiting do yourself a favor and ask for Oshane. He’ll make sure your experience is nothing short of exceptional!”

“What an unexpected culinary treat. We wanted to try out Mantu after reading a favorable article about it in the RTD a few months ago. We belong to a gourmet group and I can't wait to bring them back with me to this delightful restaurant. Our dumpling appetizer of an encrusted whole egg was subtle, different, and enjoyable. Our main course kebabs were nothing like meat and veggies on a skewer, there were no skewers in sight just wonderfully grilled, tender, and amazingly flavored lamb and vegetables. Our desserts of custard with fruit and a very imaginative take on baklava were a perfect close to the meal. In the end, it was the remarkable and very different use of unusual spice combinations, together with a friendly and engaged staff and chef that will guarantee our early return. P.S. the Afghan cuisine, if you have never experienced it, is quite different from the cuisine of India and Nepal.”

“We were asked to LEAVE the restaurant by the manager. He told us that just ordering drinks was not making him money and we were taking up space from the people waiting to be seated. I looked and there was NO ONE WAITING. I hope everyone believes this. I was embarrassed and so very angry that I got up and left before I spoke out in anger. Also we had already decided to come back there and have lunch after our scheduled tour was over. After how he treated us..... he lost our business and the business from everyone else I tell my experience to This is the review I posted on their website.”
