Nondescript building. No exterior signage. Difficult to find off the street. They could definitely improve the curb appeal. Food is decent

Delicious food. Huge entree/pasta portions so would recommend family style - everyone get something different and share. Can't go wrong with any of the appetizers, also fairly sharable. Only thing is the room is packed to the brim with seating so you have squeeze through to get to your table, and it's incredibly loud.

Fish seasoned very spicy. No flavor/tast of the branzino fish.friend ordered the rock and it was also overly spicy.

Food was real good,a good selection of fresh fish. A little small inside so it was a little loud.

The portions are huge, enough for one meal. You can tell they really care about what they serve. The food tastes amazing. The waitress was super attentive and knew the menu inside and out.

Awesome. Delicious food, huge portions and a relaxed vibe. Loud enough atmosphere to remind you that you’re in a restaurant but we had no problem heating each other.
This place is good but definitely overrated. Average Italian-American food, which is by definition average food. It cannot hold a candle to real Italian food.

Amazing food such a hole in the wall restaurant. TUNA is a MUST! Staff was great will absolutely be back

This was our first time visiting Edo’s per our friends recommendation. Initially we didn’t realize how cramped it was inside and wound up waiting for our table by the bar and unbeknownst to us, we were in the way of the servers. The main problem with this restaurant is their service which is despicable. We were reminded that we were in the way and attempted to move out of the way. Once we sat down at our table, our server was barely able to be heard across the table, she wasn’t friendly and she assumed we knew about the family style and what it entailed. When asking her questions about the menu and family style, she stated she was “already going to get in trouble” for accommodating our guest who needed gluten free options (which prompted this guest to cry in shame for something she couldn’t help) and ordered a fish separately from family style options. We ordered 5 appetizers and after 15 minutes, hadn’t received the last 2. I mentioned to another server walking by, that we were waiting on 2 more appetizers; to which her response was “ everything comes out of the kitchen when it does and it may not be ready yet, it’s busy if you can’t tell” and walked away. She was completely rude and disrespectful for no reason because emotionally she couldn’t handle how busy the restaurant was and took it upon herself to act in a completely asinine way towards us. Save yourself time going to this restaurant especially if it’s on a busy day and you’re with a big party (we were 8 total) because they don’t care if you’re there to spend money and have a good time, they will treat you like you’re off the street with zero respect.

EdoSquid is always a great choice — the food is consistently delicious. We always enjoy the broccoletti, and they have so many great seafood options, like the clam dishes, linguine and clams, halibut or rockfish with a side of pasta, and the Diablo shrimp or Diablo fish. Always a great meal!

Only detractor to this place is that the restaurant is cramped. Best food in Richmond hands down, everything they make is delicious. Please do yourself a favor and get the braised fennel antipasti. I will be going back
