“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sidecar Cocktail Lounge is hands-down one of the best spots we’ve ever been to! We stopped here during my wife’s surprise party bus night, and the experience was absolutely incredible. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with such a warm and welcoming vibe, and the place itself is stunning—chic, cozy, and just the perfect atmosphere for a special night out. Greg and Liza (who we think are the owners) were phenomenal! They went out of their way to make us feel right at home and made sure everything was perfect for our group. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality really stood out. Our server, Julia, was absolutely amazing. She was so friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. She made sure our drinks were always on point and helped us navigate their fantastic cocktail options. Everything we tried was beyond delicious—you can tell a lot of thought and craft goes into what they serve. Sidecar Cocktail Lounge is a true gem, and we’ll absolutely be back. Huge thanks to Greg, Liza, and Julia for making our night so memorable! If you haven’t been yet, you’re seriously missing out!“

“My family and I visited NAPA Kitchen & Wine in Midlothian the night before Thanksgiving, and it ended up being one of the warmest, most memorable dining experiences we’ve ever had. We had called a bit last-minute because our plans that evening were uncertain, and despite it being a busy night, the staff treated us with an incredible level of kindness and understanding. They didn’t just “fit us in” — they made us feel genuinely welcome.

When we arrived earlier than expected, they already had a table prepared, greeting us with the kind of hospitality that feels rare these days. Every interaction felt sincere, and the service was thoughtful in a way that really touched us.

The food was truly fantastic. I ordered the steak, which was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. My wife ordered the gnocchi, and when the kitchen realized the initial preparation wasn’t fully vegetarian, they immediately corrected it with zero hesitation. They handled it swiftly and graciously, and she ended up with a dish that she absolutely loved. Even our daughter’s kids’ cheese pizza was over-the-top delicious — easily the most boujee kids’ pizza she’s ever had.

What stood out the most, though, was the heart behind the service. The team at NAPA Kitchen & Wine didn’t just give us a great meal; they gave us a night that felt cared for, appreciated, and genuinely special. It meant more to us than they probably realize.

We’ll be back again and again. Highly, wholeheartedly recommended.“

“Let me just say, the Embassy Suites in Richmond, VA, truly went above and beyond! We rolled in around 2 AM, and those late check-ins can be hit or miss. But our check-in was lightning fast and so incredibly smooth. The lady at the front desk was an absolute angel. I wish I could remember her name, because her kindness at that hour was just what we needed. She was so understanding and welcoming, it made our late arrival feel like no big deal at all. And the hotel itself? Absolutely beautiful! The lobby is stunning, and it really sets the tone for the whole place. Our room was fantastic too – super comfortable, and you could tell it was meticulously cleaned. After a long drive, sinking into those comfy beds in such a clean space was a dream. If you're ever in Richmond, you've got to check out this Embassy Suites. It's a fantastic spot with amazing staff!“

“Excellent people service and of course my fav the food. I had tamales which were bigger than expected and awesome. But I also had some of my wife’s carnitas. Omg the slight crispy pork falls apart when you pick it up somehow crispy and Juicy. Omg so good and large portions at good prices.“

I highly recommend it and can’t wait to go back for more. There's a lot of variety, and I especially love that they offer roasted pork, duck, and chicken!“

“This spot delivers a good breakfast experience with great service. They've got all the traditional breakfast items, but also some really creative spins on French toast and pancakes. If you love a sweet start to your day, you'll be happy with the many choices here. We felt well taken care of by the staff.“
