“Menu choice was consistent as in past visits, however this visit was a bit disappointing overall. Slipping and falling while turning the corner to the restrooms was not how I expected to end the visit. While attempting to get up, noticed entirely too much water left on the floor (same as in restroom), and NO "wet floor" signage placed. I alerted a staff member of what happened and that signage needs to be up. Staff needs to ensure to NOT leave excessive water when mopping and throw up signs.“

“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 supprised my wife and took her for a early dinner on Sunday, September 6th, 2027. We had a 2:15 pm reservation, but arrived about 1:50 and were greated very warmly by one of the host. We we seated promptly in about the center of the room. And although the table wobbled a bit, we were ok. Our server, David appoligized because he had not greated us immediately but the place was very busy. We ordered three appitizers, buffalo shrimp, Tia Chili shrimp with the sauce on the side and corn bread cakes. Well. We should have and could have stopped right there because we received the largest, perfectly prepared shrimp that were served hot! They were magnificent!!!. The conrbread was to die for. We we had to do more so I ordered the fried smothered porkchops with mack and cheese, steweed tomatoes and french fries (why did I do that). My wife ordered the chicken liver and onions, collards and candied yams and we spean the rest of the meal eating off each others plates it was so good!. But we both had to tap out because we were stuffed. But did I stop their? No way, I ordered the half roasted chicken with two sides to go as well because I knew my wife would be hungry later that evening and would raid my plate and I wanted to enjoy the food one more time later that evening. I said all this because I pray that everyone has such a wonderful experience that I did. Also the staff really look out for one another and I really appreciated the diversity in the workers in the restaurant as well. Thanks Southern Kitchen we will be back.“

“Isabella who is was very attentive to my every need. She was detailed asked questions regarding my food choices and even carried on a conversation with my daughter after I had paid for my meal. The bar was loud which was ok and I ordered an old fashion which tasted like dirty water and fruit. Yuck. My meal was very very good , was even good late the same evening. Had catfish bites Friedan’s Caesar salad to wash down a Coca-Cola. Great spot - good food- and the staff is amazing. Thanks for making this trip worry free for food/coke“

“Crabcake was well prepared, mainly lump crab meat, little filler. Cole slaw was much better than average. Peanut soup is not my favorite but was willing to give it a try. Too salty. Shrimp and grits were good along with the andouille sausage. Have been to the Jefferson Hotel before but wanted to go this year to see the Christmas decorations. Recommend it. The Gingerbread House scene was great including the scent of the spices.“
