This place nails it every time we have been. Usually I get the steak as they cook it perfect, its a huge cut and super great price. I have had 5-7 things and every time its great.Their service is also always top notch. We went once during COVID when we could not sit at the bar so the set us up with a high top against the bar and worked around us on the floor.They also make a killer espresso martini.
We were celebrating friends Anniversary from out of town..called in advance to tell them this and to try to put a candle or write something on the dessert plate..nothing done. The husband, an old Sicilian Italian, orders a bottle of wine and was presented with the worst pouring etiquette I have ever seen. After the waitress poured his glass she let him taste it and basically slammed the bottle down next to his glass and left! She brought multiple glasses but didn't even offer to pour anyone else a glass. I could see he was a little taken back and I immediately apologized.We chose this over any restaurant at The Jefferson where they were staying..the food was ok ( except one appetizer and one side: excellent fried oysters and broccolini).
Best Italian in Richmond, VA! The carbonara and shrimp scampi dishes are absolutely amazing. The service is incredible as well. Can’t wait to go back next time I’m in the area.
Bacchus is the god of wine. Ironically the wine selection here was not very good but still better than their service. Rude staff, poor knowledge of their own wine. I do not recommend this place and was taken back by the rude way we were spoken to and treated.. Go to Jardin or Celladora for great wine, food, and staff.
Bustling and busy when me and husband stopped in for mid-week dinner but not too busy for friendly seating and service at the bar. Really good vibe from staff, with servers and kitchen working seamlessly without performative huffing and puffing. Food was flavorful and well-seasoned. Pasta portions were definitely shareable!
Very welcoming atmosphere with menu item choices for every palate. Rockfish with Romesco well prepared. Chicken Picatta and Marsala also perfect. My wife and I shared roasted brussel sprouts with bacon and dried cherries. Food is prepared in open kitchen and arrived piping hot! Will definitely be back!
The customer service was great, but the food was just ok. We ordered several dishes and no one was in love with their food. The marsala was abnormally sweet, the carbonara was definitely not authentic (tasted like a pasta with gravy) and none of the main dishes ordered were served with pasta. Just disappointed overall with the reviews I read.
Best Italian food I’ve ever had. Service was great and fast even though it was packed when we went to eat. We got clams, mussels, pasta, salmon and shrimp. Can’t wait to go back.
Quite possibly one of my favorite meals of all time! No exaggeration. Delicious calamari, unique, fresh sauces, perfectly cooked burger, yummy deserts, excellent cappuccino, friendly service, and all for a reasonable price. What more could you ask for?
Last dish in the house I was told, kitchen is about to close. While they were preparing my salmon and shrimp with lobster sauce, they served it. One bite and it burned my entire mouth with cleaning liquid, fabuloso ???no apology from them.
