The food here is interesting and excellent. TheBroccolini app is recommended. Both the white and red sauces for the pastas are well done. The white is tasty and not too thick. The red is spicy and robust. Good wine selection. I personally like the funky stairs.
Vegetarian options: Several Veggie apps and many pasta options

Cool vibes here in this eclectic Italian restaurant. As soon as we entered the restaurant we saw a basket of fresh garlic ready to be peeled, some were. You can taste how freshly made garlic infused dishes are. This place fills up fast however they do take reservations. Service was right on time, no rush. And the best flavors of this food. My husband had the Veal piccata, which was so tender. He cut it with his fork. The rockfish was just as delicate, meaty and spiced up, just right. Before you start the entrées, there are lots of wonderful appetizers to start my all-time favorite delicious creamy pasta Gorgonzola.

My dish was excellent! Host a bit rude. Waitress was excellent. The place is very dark. It was packed when we arrived so it was very noisy. It got better after a while. I think the food is overpriced though

Super tasty, get the broccoli rabe or the gorgonzola pasta. Does not split checks so be aware of dining with a group

The veal marsala was thinly sliced, tender, and flavorful. A bit sweet but good.
The caprese was very fresh and well seasoned. The variety of green to red tomatoes gave it a good contrast in sweetness. The mozzarella was fresh and not salty. Olive oil had a garlic spice infusion that gave it good depth in flavor.
The duck was cooked medium and complimented with a sweet wine reduction. The polenta was crispy but a bit salty.
Marinara meat sauce was ok, I would omit the lemon acidity. It ruined it for me a bit.

Hostess is rude to the 10th degree. Had reservations…arrived early.. asked to wait at the bar which we did There was an open table the entire time we waited. At our reservation time we asked for the same table but were told that we’re waiting for someone that was at least 15 minutes late. The hostess was incredibly rude. We will never dine at Edo’s Squid ever again. The hostess should not be in the front of the house. Lacks customer relations skills.

Phenomenal food, excellent service, great value for price. Atmosphere is unassuming and inoffensive but non-contributory. Will happily go again and recommend all my friends visiting Richmond do the same ?
Fantastic food, but the servers and the dining room act like they wish you'd stayed home

The entrance looks like you’re walking into a broom closet. The food took an hour. The quail was bland and tasteless, the shrimp pasta was good but not good enough for the price, and the eggplant penne was also soggy and just fine. The server was informative and friendly. This place was talked up but I don’t know what for. I ended up spending $60 for mediocre pasta dishes.

It's called edo squid, just get the white bean and squid dish. Life changing! Literally, sad it took me this long to eat here. Shame on me, great service, killer wine list at great prices. Every dish at the place I saw looked amazing. The tiramisu was delicious and could legit taste the booze, so good and light. Can't wait to eat here with many people and order a ton more to try.
