    East-end/Eastern Henrico staple #classics near the corner of Williamsburg Rd and Laburnum. My mom and I were off Monday so I decided to stop here to pick up lunch. Very nostalgic vibe, staff was friendly and helpful in navigating the large menu. Initially, we wanted a club (they have several to choose from but I asked the cashier if he had to choose between that and a steak and cheese he opted for the sub. The 12 inch large combo was about $20 (cash discount) to include fries and a large limeade. This spot is popular so there was a wait but they moved the orders along in a reasonable amount of time. The sub was a bit thin as the meat is sliced vs chopped, I wasn't a fan of the seasoning they used and it was just warm when I got back to mom's house (which isn't that far) but the bread itself was really good and fresh (2.9/5), their fries served piping hot and seasoned well (5/5) and I'm so glad the cashier hyped up the limeade as it was just as good as Bill's barbecue back in the day (yup I'm telling my age but iykyk), perfectly sweet and tart served with that good hospital ice, lol (10/5). I definitely want that limeade again so I'll be back!

    One of the best steak and cheese you'll be able to get in the Richmond area... the steak is stacked and the bread is soft and chewey... The crinkled french fries are crispy and delicious... I always get them unsalted because dipping it in ketchup has enough salt... And the star of the show is the freshly made lime-aid... they even offer a sugar free version for those watching your sugar intake. I have never had a better one... If you're in the mood for a a great sub/sandwich shop... make your way!

    I'm so upset I didn't find this restaurant earlier. I've ordered twice now and it has not disappointed. The lamb gyro was so flavorful and delicious! This time I ordered the downtowner and lord was it delicious. The cheese fries are crinkle cut fries that are seasoned and topped with nacho cheese. They have just the right amount of kick. You have to get one of their limeades too! They are so freaking good! They taste just like Bill's barbecue limeades! The owners are so nice and even though they are packed when you get in there, the service is fast and pleasant. It's an in demand place with a few tables and chairs to eat in, but when I went there was standing room only. That had no effect on how delicious everything was. Definitely check this place out because it is such a must have!

    Classics embodies the word nostalgia so well. Take a trip back in time for a great sub, fries and sweet limemade. The customer service was wonderful. I noticed on the way out that around back was a take out window making it more convenient for both dining out and dining in guests. The decor will give you a walk down memory lane with vintage toys and collectibles.

    The food was amazing and the staff was super friendly. The owners talked to us a majority of the time and the seating was accommodating. The music wasn't to loud and customers were smiling and having a great meal

    Craving BBQ? Backwoodz is your place! The brisket with the fat cap on is AMAZING! So flavorful!…read moreCame in super hungry after a long travel day, and that first bite was heavenly. No sauce needed! Another standout was the cucumber & tomato salad which had just the right amount of vinegar. The green beans and the cabbage were tasty, but just a tad too salty for me. I can't fault them, as I rarely use salt, it's likely my palette that is off. The pulled pork was excellent, but needed sauce. Alas I cannot have sweet sauces. I then got the idea to combine the pork with the cabbage and found it similar to the experience of eating luau pork with poi. Better together! I added the leftover vinegar dressing from the C&T salad to the green beans and found that also was a hit. The desserts were very tempting, but I opted instead to order enough brisket and pulled pork for the weekend. It's proven to be very filling!! I also can't say enough about the staff. So genuinely welcoming, helpful, friendly, and clearly proud of their product (as they should be!). Put a smile on my face and will look forward to returning on future trips to Richmond!

Business was steady, but not full or overcrowded in the least. It's very close to the airport, easy access with plenty of free parking in the large lot out in front of the strip mall. Barbecue tasted good and they actually have fried okra . You don't find that everywhere. No issues with the additional side menu items. The portion of the barbecue and the side was quite small. Because it smelled so good when I walked in I went ahead and ordered a dinner portion and it turns out that's the same exact size as a lunch portion despite being more expensive. Service was slow. I don't mind waiting a few minutes for good barbecue, but it took longer than it should have. And, I was about halfway done with the meal before the soft drinks came out. Seems like they also do catering, which probably wouldn't have the slow service problem. I might try them again if I'm in that area as I don't think there's any BBQ close by the airport. Maybe I just hit it on a day when staff called out sick or something.

    The food here was really good. My kiddo specifically asked for cheese fries for his birthday lunch,…read moreso after asking for recommendations on Facebook, this place seemed like the best choice. It can get a little pricy, especially when you want to try all of the things, but the portions were plentiful and tasted delicious. We started with the cheese stick roulette, where they apparently prep a bunch of different cheeses for cheese sticks earlier in the week, and then just randomly grab six to deep fry when you order it. You have no idea what it is, they have no idea what it is. Pretty fun and delicious and we love cheese, so total win. We ended up cutting them in half just to check what they were before eating because the kids do not like anything remotely spicy and pepper jack is one of the cheeses, so we just had to verify it wasn't that so they could eat it and hubs and I ate those ones instead. I thought the tomato coulis it was served with was stellar, and the fruity jam was also amazing. I could not decide which one was better for dipping the cheesesticks in, and I ended up keeping both condiments when the cheesesticks were gone so I could dip my fries in them. A fantastic choice, they were both great with the fries. Which I might add, are AWESOME! They are scoopable fries. So... like a cross between potato skins and potato wedges. They were both crispy and soft and very unique and so worth the trip. They also use the cheese dip instead of just shredded cheese, so it stays creamy and gooey. All of the burgers sounded awesome and it took us a very long time to decide what we wanted (I had been looking at the menu days in advance to make sure I could decide) and we opted for the Southern Gentleman (pimento cheese, hot honey and fried chicken) and the PBJ and I can't decide which one I liked more. They were both completely different and completely delicious. If I had to make a recommendation... I'd say bring a friend, order one of each and split them like hubs and I did. Choices are for suckers. Kiddos opted for the cheese fries that he came for (which come with bacon, btw) and the kiddos cheeseburger meal, and they both loved them. The service was great too, even when this place was pretty darn crowded on a weekday lunch hour. Also, don't be fooled by the storefront driving by, this restaurant is waaaaaaaay bigger on the inside than it appears on the outside. There was plenty of seating. The music was a touch too loud, but they also had some yummy sounding specialty drinks, as well as a bunch of local beers. My kids have been asking to come back pretty much since we left the restaurant.

Upon arrival, it was quite busy but the location still had plenty of seating. When we were seated, we noticed it was only one waitress waiting tables too. She was able to get us our drinks and orders pretty quickly despite working solo. I was the adventurous one in our group and ordered the pb and j cheese burger. Upon initial bite, it really tasted like a really well constructed burger. It was a double patty burger with white cheese. You don't really taste the jam. As you're chewing, the peanut butter comes out and it really makes the bite more creamy and definitely tastes of peanut butter. Overall, I would recommend fat boys for sure. Everyone thought the food tasted great and the portions were big. Definitely worth the trip!

    I had been wanting to try Fat Kid Sandwiches for a long while -- from back when they would do…read morepop-ups at Veil -- but the timing had never worked out. Earlier in the month, I was finally able to check them out for the first time. I had my eye on their Italian hoagie, which is listed under the Cold section, but I know better at this point in time of living in the South and the many Italian hoagies that I have had to refrigerate. So I ordered it without the tomato or peppers and served cold. I ordered it through the bartender, who told me that they do serve them cold and that they were out of peppers that day. Turns out they were not out of peppers and they did not serve it cold. I can't eat peppers due to food sensitivities, so I sent it back and asked for it to be re-made. This was the bartender's mistake, from the receipt I could see that he didn't send those notes to Fat Kid, to be clear. The second rendition was made correctly, and it was definitely tasty, but they are overpriced. It's pretty obvious from my picture that this wasn't some hefty, super stuffed and loaded with meats/cheese hoagie. It looks like a normal 6" hoagie. Not worth $11 for it, in my opinion. I'd rather spend $16 at Stanley's or $10 for a full-size at Mr. Submarine.

    The BEST Italian in RVA hands down. I'm so sad that Hatch has now closed but I'm so excited to see…read morewhat fat kid sandwiches does next!!
