“I had lunch with my daughter on Saturday... it was raining and messy out. The warmth of our server was just what was needed! We had the salmon tacos, fries(cooked to perfection) & THE BEST she-crab soup! The perfect place for lunch!!“

“John, our waiter, was fantastic!!! He was very friendly, helpful, attentive!!! He checked with us often to see if we needed anything - water refills, more napkins, etc!!! We will definitely request John to be our server whenever we come back, which will be often“

“We had dinner at Chef's Kitchen tonight, Feb. 21st. Our waiter Ben was amazing, as was the food. We started with the Burrata and Dumplings, both of which were mouth watering and glorious. My greatest fear is that those dumplings will haunt my dreams forever. I could probably eat them daily. I am telling you it was a religious experience. If not a religious experience then possibly a spiritual experience. I believe if Anthony Bourdain ate here he would have something pithy and wonderful to say. Something cultured and refined. For an entree we both had the braised duck gnocchi which was pillowy, creamy, and delicious. We paired the meal with a Cab Franc from barboursville which was decently priced and absolutely sublime. Give this place an opportunity. Eat here. My wife and I both agree that it is the best meal we have shared together in many years. Oh and ask for Ben and tip him well. He's the man.“

“This was a great atmosphere, great waiters, and delicious food! I highly recommend this restaurant!👍🍷“

“What can I say about this Firebirds in Richmond? Amazing food, service, ambiance and the manager Liliana even came by to make sure everything was perfect. Definitely coming back soon.“

“My teenage niece and I had a blast playing the new mini golf holes! The space theme inside is really cool, the topiary animals outside are neat and all the holes are quirky and fun! We played twice and had a nice lunch in between.“

“It’s a great local place. Lots of dinner specials. They are definitely a step up from bar food. They also have some very simple meals like two hot dogs. In good weather there’s an outside dining area. There’s also a back room for private dining of us small group.“

“Son took me here for my birthday (June 4) 🎂 🥳. Always wanted to dine here, and so glad we did!! The atmosphere and ambience is perfect for any occasion: after work happy hour w/dinner; date night; celebratory events because the decor is very chic, but not overstated - add white linens to all the tables, and it can be taken up a notch. Great lighting, wonderful hostess and service, and the food... excellent! She-crabby soup is 🔥 (don't share a cup like we did - trust me)! The ginger glaze salmon over risotto- cooked perfectly (not sloppy or runny); lamb lollipops - tender, moist, and the sauce was awesome! We didn't intend to clean our plates, but we did! 🤭😂 We didn't enjoy the fried oysters (too bready and soft), or the roasted bacon brussel sprouts (not chopped enough; too dry - could use more sauce/drizzle to bind it a little more, - chasing each scoop around the plate - not a good look 😆). Overall great experience and will definitely go back because we were sooo satisfied with our meals that we want to try other dishes!! The location just off of Three Chopt makes it feel like a hidden gem!“

“great food relaxing atmosphere“

“Mike is awesome! Took great care of my order with a special request, thank you!“

“The diner up front has a great breakfast, lunch and makes a wonderful early dinner option. Out back there's a welcoming little watering hole that's a staple of the community. It's the best place to grab a cold one in all of Powhatan. Whether you're playing pool inside or cornhole out back it'll be somewhere you're trying to get back to in the near future. The great food and drink may only be match by the friends you find at this wonderful little play like none other.“

“Great food, great staff, okay owner 😉(jk…he’s the best!)“

“covid guidelines, great service, and yummy burgers. get a free burger in your birth month“

“The service was very good, our server was amazing. Food was exactly like we expected, very exquisite and good presentation. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area. Yeimi went above and beyond to make sure we had a great first visit.“

“food is delicious and staff are amazing“

“First time visit, excellent service and the food was delicious!!!“

“The employees and customer service were outstanding! This property is now pet friendly and very much welcoming. Check in and check out we’re extremely quick and easy. Room and hallway colors seem a little loud in contrast. Comfortable bedding and good HVAC. Pool was closed and very little in terms of breakfast grab items… disappointing. Would stay here again if in the area despite limited amenities.“

“Very bright and well lit, clean and staff was very friendly and helpful. There was a wide selection of items for anyone charged with feeding a family or group. You can stop by, quickly pickup items, and take home for heat and eat. I was tasked with making backup Thanksgiving holiday meal in case a planned gathering didn't pan out. You know how you might get a holiday invitation and you're not sure how it will work out. So, I decided that do it myself. I made my signature dish for the carry along to the planned meal, but I left the extra back home, and I got the 3 lb smoked turkey to go from Honey Baked Ham, and make a few sides at home. After buying a pie and ice cream, I was set. No fuss, no stress. Great way to de-stress for the holiday and have a backup in case your Thanksgiving Invite Destination folks CAN'T COOK! You can show up, he cordial, bring your plate, then go home and have your meal, your way, and everyone is happy. Just my thoughts.“

“We love going to the Short Pump location. The food is amazing but very disappointed that the Onion Nest is no longer on the menu.“

“I am so serious when I say the BLT I just received from here is the best BLT I have ever consumed. It genuinely moved the benchmark for me in what I should expect from other sandwich places. Rhi, thank you for your service + skill behind the counter!“

“We had the best waitress ask for Stella!!!! She made my birthday so special!!! Thank you Stella!!!♥️“

“Joe’s Out is connected to Joe’s In. Due to my schedule and my time in Richmond to see my son and his family, I’m always heading to Joe’s Out to grab amazing food and of course their fabulous Ice Cream! 9 out of 10 times I’m greeted by Austin, the young man that always smiles and provides you with great conversation and service. I can honestly say that I have never had better food and service from an establishment that caters to those of us that want to get hot tasty take out than Joe’s Out!
P.S. Their new Hot Chocolate ice cream is delicious 🤤“

“First Watch is now our favorite breakfast place to go. It was really bad years ago as far as time to serve. It was so bad we would drive to the one in west end and still be done sooner. After they removed the manager and automated the ordering system, we now give it an A+.“

“My fiancé and I went there for dinner and 🤯 it was so good! Our waitress Tanya was super nice and friendly!“

“I Love this location, we come to Richmond and always enjoy the Mayland Ct. location after a day shopping or appointments. We drive from Fredericksburg. Always Great Service, Great Food and friendly“

“First time eating at First Watch and it was a great lunch.“

“So good! I'm vegan and there are numerous vegan options. I've had a vegan minty Milkshake, vegan protein pancakes and a vegan taco breakfast meal. All were some of the best food/drink I've ever had. Cool vibes. One of my favorite restaurants 😍 I attended the location in Tysons Corner“

“The food was amazing and friendly service!“

“Food was excellent! Service was even better! The drinks were amazing as well!“

“Just learned of this place earlier this week and booked a reservation for dinner tonight. Omg, it's fantastic! We celebrated an intimate birthday dinner there and it did not disappoint. Everything was meticulously done, from the drinks, the service, the decor and the food.(!!) Just wow. 5 stars... I would give it 6 if I could. It was a memorable experience, and we will definitely be returning.“

“Briana P. Was absolutely amazing. I cannot express enough how much we enjoyed our first experience. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left she made sure everything was perfect. The blueberry mimosas were so good. The gooey goose bread was 10/10. Her smile, energy, and passion for seeing others come together over a meal was felt instantly. I cannot wait to come back again and hopefully she will be in a managers position. I just hope she’ll make the exception of serving us again. Give her a raise. Give her a promotion. Take a piece of her hair and clone 5 more of her lol 😂 ♥️ I’ve never had such an amazing experience before! Thank you!“

“Sarah was our bartender tonight. Awesome !“

“Food was excellent!!! Garlic parm wings and ice cold Michelobs all day!!! Service was beyond excellent, Hailey M. kills what she does. Really really sweet, beautiful, and enthusiastic womannn!!! Most definitely recommend her ALL DAYYY LONG and this store!!!! ❤️“

“Our party of six enjoyed a lovely mid-afternoon lunch on the patio. Service was prompt, very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed several excellent appetizers including ahi tuna tacos, shaved octopus and the best mussels on the planet! Entree’s we enjoyed were Tuna Poke Bowl, Fried Grouper Sandwich with pickled pineapple just to name a couple. All of us enjoyed our visit and look forward to going again!“

“Friday happy hour is the best time to go!!! The food was delicious, the employees are great and I love that they have a jukebox box I’ll go there just play the music and have some drinks! Remember to always uber if you plan to have a good time there! I always have fun at Applebees!“

“Love this place ❤️ My son and daughter in law took me here for my birthday on 9/21. Had the shrimp stuffed with crabmeat. OMG It was delicious.“

“Great food, great service, and good atmosphere! We love to go on Tuesdays for Singo. Turned into one of our favorite sports!“

“Eric, Honer, and Anthony have made this dining experience so incredibly great! Our drinks stayed filled, our food was amazing, and they were incredibly accommodating. We will absolutely be visiting more often! We came on a Saturday night, no wait, yet the place was pretty full. Got a table instantly and drinks and food were quick.“

“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!“

“Amazing experience, food was super good, oriented towards elevated deep splouth cuisine. Fried chicken was cooked just right and crispy salmon was melt in your mouth great. We almost bought extra short-beef rib egg rolls to go! Only slight negative was that dessert took a little long to get to us. In their defense, we came late, it seemed like they cooked it fresh, and they comped it, so can't complain!“

“This is my “go-to” spot for a great meal and good service. The servers are always attentive, and the food well-prepared and served at the correct temperature: warm but not so hot as to burn one’s mouth. Pictured below is the pork chop entree I recently enjoyed. I heartily recommend Texas Roadhouse. Go ahead and order anything on the menu — whatever your choice, you can’t go wrong. #roadhouserules“

“Great Dive Bar and prices are pn the less expensive side. Liked the regulars I met and bartender was kind. I was just killin' time on my wat to grab my dogs fro. the groomer, but I'll be back. Country music playin' inbackground, a few TVs, so.e games, booths, and bar seating. Cool little covered area outside too.“

“Had an amazing experience at Cap Ale House thanks to Kaila! She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure our drinks were always perfect. You can tell she really knows her stuff—great recommendations and awesome energy the whole time.

Even when it got busy, she stayed on top of everything and made us feel taken care of. Definitely one of the best bartenders I’ve come across. If you’re stopping by, make sure you sit at the bar and ask for Kaila—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Came in today with my friend and kids, the food was all delicious and the service was spectacular! We had Jazmyn as our server and she was so sweet and helpful! Gave us wonderful suggestions and made sure to point out the new specials menu they have. 10/10 experience, we will be back!“

“Stopped in for some burgers and bottomless fries... Not disappointed. I think the A1 Burger is something new on the menu and it was really good, highly recommend. Got grilled chicken breast and fries, the chicken breast was cooked perfectly! Wife loved the bacon cheeseburger!“

“Highly recommend! Great service, food and drinks.“
