Food was great! They only serve some of the best items on the menu after 5pm. I would love a pasta dish at 3pm lol.

Really cool spot. So much easier to get in to than the grove location, with the same food, atmosphere and better service. The club sandwich is enough for two people. The burger was also great. Nice beer selection on draft. Also some good house cocktails.

I've been here a couple times and never had anything bad. The burgers are wonderful, and they are BIG. I was especially happy with the turkey French dip, which had incredible bread! I really appreciate how large the portions are for the vegetable sides -- I ordered broccolini, expecting the typical 3 sad stalks, and was shocked to see a massive, perfectly cooked pile come out on my plate. You really can't go wrong here, it's incredible. Service is always wonderful and friendly, and the atmosphere is relaxed, clean, and cute.

Cute and trendy place with great food. I had the salmon rueben, which was delicious, as were my side of Buffalo Brussel sprouts. My partner chose the footlong hotdog, mostly because it was such an odd offering. He was not disappointed, staying it was one of the best hotdogs he's ever had. It was a busy Friday night, but the bar service took way too long, and our server was a bit forgetful. Took over 15 minutes to get a beer and a mixed drink (they did voluntarily comp them). Beer selection was good; I had the Orange Crush drink, which I would probably skip and try something else next time. There were specials written up on a board; I wish I had known before we ordered, I may have opted for a different drink or entree. Street parking is available, and there is a garage down the street that they say they will validate for, but we forgot, so I can't confirm. Overall, really good. Can't wait to go back and try brunch.

The best espresso martinis I’ve ever had! Staff is always friendly and the food is really good! My (now) fiancé and I had our first date here and we come back all the time, especially for brunch.
Parking: There is a very small parking lot on one side, but it’s typically easiest to find street parking. Lots of options nearby.

Higher end bar food and brunch. Great location and ambiance. Parking usually isn't a problem. Accommodates large parties.

I’ve had the salmon Reuben three times and it’s literally perfect. The crust is 10/10. One of the best things in Richmond.

3 words: Hot. Chicken. Sandwich. The chef(s) behind that thing deserve a prime spot in heaven. The Continental is doing the lords work at this place. Amazing food, good prices, generous serving size, and a lovely vibe inside. They are singlehandedly making the world a better place through their doordash deals that go on every day, making it the same price to order a glorious hot chicken sandwich as it would cost to go pick it up. Seriously, they are doing everything right there. I've gotten 2 other people addicted to this sandwich and they've also fallen down the doordash wormhole. My friend texted me today saying, "Just demolished that chicken sandwich from Continental and I wish I could make love to the chef". Thought it was about time to write a google review for all the good they have done for me. Please never change, Continental.

We will go here again. All around decent, we came in for a late lunch while in the area. Looks like brunch would be really good, and we'll probably come back for that. Only issue was parking. There is a garage about a block away, but very limited in the immediate area. More like a place you would go to if you lived nearby. Street parking was available, but the street does not allow parking from 4pm to 6pm every day, so if you are there later in the afternoon, be prepared to move your vehicle.
Parking: Limited spaces in the immediate area, most people circle around to find street parking (which is also limited), but the main street is closed to parking from 4pm to 6pm each day, so beware the tow truck. Parking garage is free, about a block away.
Great outdoor dining near downtown. Prices are reasonable.

Its exciting to see the revitalization of Manchester and The Continental is a bright spot on the restaurant scene. They have some creative and fun dishes and being next door to Stella’s Grocery is a plus in case you want to grab something for home as you leave the restaurant.

This restaurant is for anyone who love well seasoned and prepared food. Been here several times now and if I could I'd make the cook here my personal chef. Everything was awesome!
