Made my reservation a long time before for inside seating, but ended up being a beautiful evening and the host was very accommodating to help me find and outside table. I have been coming here since I moved to Richmond in 1995 and it remains my favorite place. Food and service are always top notch
The food and service were good. The chicken alfredo, seafood stuffed portobello mushrooms, voodoo chicken, gumbo, redfish orleans, shrimp and grits, fried shrimp and hush puppies were Yummy 😋 Thank you!!!
We visited twice during our stay and had an overall good experience both times. Our server during the evening visit was not great. He was generally rude and awkward to interact with - name begins with A. However, the food was great! This led us to come back for brunch the next morning. I'm glad we did because we had a great server that time and great food, again. I would recommend this place 10/10 despite the visit with bad service as the rest of the staff seemed very kind.
