    Sliced Brisket. 1 pound. Fatty. Mmmmmm
    Kristian J.

    BEST BBQ in the Short Pump area - Richmond - area!! Upon walk in, you smell that barbecue smoke. That's the sign of fantastic Q. Great value too!! My go to -- sliced beef brisket. Fatty moist please. Delicious. Smoked for hours. Tender. 14 hours to be exact of smoke. Black pepper. Amazing bark. No sauce. Texas style. You can get lean. But fatty has all of the flavor. BBQ sauces -- Carolina -- vinegar based. Spicy. With a little kick to it. Not sweet at all. Several other sauces to select from. Mild is good too. Lots of free parking. I always get several pounds of the fatty brisket to go. Now I'm hungry!! Will return. Support this small business!! There is other traditional BBQ fare too.

    Visiting from San Diego and kind of on a BBQ crawl this was our 4th BBQ spot on this trip and was easily our favorite. I ordered a half slab of ribs,2 brisket sammies and their loaded fries with brisket. Everything was exceptional the brisket was so tender it melted in your mouth and the prices were super reasonable for what you get very generous servings. No place within 120 mls comes even close to this in San Diego and there's a place called Heritage BBQ in San Juan Capistrano that somehow got ranked very highly by Teacas monthly that has a line down the street that charges more that doesn't come close to this place. We walked right up to the counter and got our spread within 15 minutes here.

    Some of the most affordable BBQ in Richmond and up there with some of the best! Only $47 for 1/3 lb brisket, 1/3 lb pork, 4 wings, large jalopeno mac n cheese, small fry, and two pieces of cornbread. Out of everything, my favorites were the mac n cheese and cornbread (with the honey butter). Out of the meats, the wings were my favorite but the brisket was a close second. Everything was so good and so well priced, we'll definitely be back.

    Complimentary wedding sample.. amazing
    Gwendolyn W.

    Went for a scheduled wedding tasting and arrived a tad early.. they offered us complimentary beverages which we just were fine with water. However, they had a private little dining area ALL SET UP. With a display and options it was awesome. Then Niki came out just explained the process and let it just be relaxing. THEN, the food!! Oh wow, first off the display was incredible. Most things they gave us an abundance to try. (Don't worry, I'll post pics;)) anyways by the end she just gave us all the numbers and we put the deposit down to reserve our special day. I d so thankful for the staff and wonderful Niki!! Highly recommend, can't wait to see it next September. Free complimentary food everything. We tipped but it wasn't expected. Anyways book fast because they are popular with good reason! Thanks Niki and compliments to the bbq master and chef

    Catfish sandwich with mac and cheese.
    Elizabeth B.

    I had the Catfish sandwich with mac and cheese. My sons had pulled chicken, the brisket sandwich, and also the smoked sausage. Mac and cheese passed my test. It was creamy and cheesy. Needed salt and pepper. It was good for restaurant stove top mac and cheese. The catfish needed to be crispier. It tasted fine in general, but the breading was mushy in the creases. Their tarter sauce was delicious. I wish the sandwich had come with lettuce and tomato. The smoked sausage was just average. The pulled chicken also just average. Nothing special here, unfortunately. Overall I felt like this was yet another overpriced BBQ place with average food in RVA.

    My husband and I stopped in mid afternoon on a Sunday. It wasn't too crowded with people eating in the restaurant but there was a consistent number of pick up orders as we dined. We were warmly welcomed by two staff members and really enjoyed our interactions with them. We both had pork sandwiches and fries. I would skip the fries next time and go with a different side. The table next to us was raving on the mushrooms. We sat outside since it was a beautiful day. We will definitely stop in again!!

    We came on a Monday afternoon and there was no line. The staff are very friendly and there's a lot of seating. We ordered 1 lb brisket, 1/3 pound sausage, and sweet potatoes, mac and cheese, coleslaw, and cornbread as sides. Food was more than enough for 2 people, we ended taking the rest to go. The brisket could have been more moist, but overall tasted great with the spicy Carolina and mild sauces. The self serve lemonade and iced tea was a nice touch. Solid barbecue spot!

    Let me start off by saying that I'm originally from Boston, so I haven't had much experience with bbq, but this place has the best brisket sandwich I've had in RVA. When I entered I was immediately greeted by a very friendly staff. I decided to try the brisket sandwich, which came highly recommended, but got my cole slaw on the side, along with a side of mac and cheese, and of course, a sweet tea. The tea had unlimited refills, and I actually blended the sweet and unsweetened teas together (I'm still getting used to the sweet tea!). The sandwich was so moist that it didn't even need sauce! I did try a taste of the sweet sauce, which was too sweet for my liking and the mild sauce, which I liked much better. The cole slaw was tasty, and the mac and cheese, although very cheesy, lacked flavor. I added a bit of the mild bbq sauce to it, and it was much better. Overall, I was really happy with my meal and the friendly staff, so I'll definitely be back.

    Pulled pork, baked beans
    Danette D.

    Love the bbq and they have good sides. I hate going to a bbq spot with no good sides but no worries Deep Run has you covered. And the sauce is good and doesn't require any doctoring up. I believe they have a vinegar based sauce for those who prefer Carolina style bbq. They offer a variety of meats including smoked wings. Service was great and they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. Casual dining atmosphere. If you're in the west end give them a try!

    Pulled Chicken Sandwich
    Menghai T.

    I got the pulled chicken sandwich with a side of Mac n cheese and cowboy beans. The chicken was pretty good, moist and seasoned. The bbq sauce was very liquidy but it did have good flavor. The sandwich with two sides was about $14. For that price, it's definitely a good deal compared to any other bbq places. The staff were nice and it was clean inside. I wasn't blown away, but if you are craving bbq on a budget this is place to check out. 6.9/10

    Back again, fantastic as always. Our server Brandon was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive…read more Started with fried green tomatoes, one of our favorite appetizers. They're so good! I had the braised beef short ribs, which were melt-in-your -mouth. Paired with garlic mashed potatoes, roasted root veg, and some of the best collard greens I've ever had. He had the fried chicken with hot honey, garlic mashed potatoes, and more collard greens. That fried chicken was so crispy and delicious. Had the peach cobbler bread pudding for dessert, and it was an EXPERIENCE. The only thing that would have made the meal better was some of the slab bacon, but we'll know to come for breakfast or lunch for that next time!

    Farm and Oak has been on my list and I finally made it!…read more My husband and I wanted to have lunch out and picked Farm and Oak because we haven't visited this restaurant. They have a very limited menu at lunch so you have a few appetizers to choose from, a few salads and sandwiches and burgers, so straight up American food. It does skew southern with crab cake sandwich, pimento cheese and fried chicken. For an appetizer we decided to try the wings. They were good and came with ranch drizzled over the wings. For entrees my husband got their farm & oak burger with Cole slaw and I got their wedge salad with fried chicken. Both were good. The salad was nice and cold and crisp, which was appreciated on such a hot day. It did have too much dressing so next time I might ask for less dressing or have it on the side. I enjoyed the food, service was good and it is a pretty restaurant. I'll probably come back for supper some time to try some of their more in-depth meals.

    We had lunch at Emmy Squared on Saturday around 12:30 PM, and honestly, we had a great experience…read more Service was great, the cocktail was yummy, and I liked that they offered a "shortie" cocktail option at a better price. Hubby had the shortie, while I got the full size. We shared the Sriracha wings as an appetizer and a pizza, which was more than enough for both of us. Everything tasted great, and I really have no complaints. I'm honestly not sure why there are so many negative reviews about the service and prices. Everything is more expensive nowadays, and the prices here seemed pretty comparable to other restaurants. Overall, we had a really good lunch and would definitely go back.

    Full disclosure: I know restaurants are short-staffed these days, and I try to give grace for that…read more But last night stretched my patience. We sat in our booth for over 15 minutes before anyone brought water. Another 5 minutes passed before our waitress came to take our order. To be clear, when we arrived, only 4 tables inside including ours were occupied. By the time we finished eating, we were the only patrons inside, with just two tables outside being served by someone else entirely. When we finished eating we waited. We waited, and waited, and waited, and waited. Our waitress never came. My partner had to go up to the bar to ask for to-go boxes and our check. Not okay. Here's the thing: our waitress wasn't rude, and she got our order exactly right. The problem wasn't her. It was management. Wherever the manager was last night, I never saw them. Was it their night off? Fine, but if you know your team is short-staffed, you plan for it. And if the restaurant wasn't actually short-staffed and this is just the standard level of service, that's a different, more concerning problem. Now, the food. This deserves its own paragraph because it was genuinely good. I had the Deluxe deep-dish, and it delivered. Every bite had a satisfying crunch, the toppings tasted fresh, and the sauce wasn't sweet, which I appreciated. The crust hit that ideal balance of crispy edges and a cheese pull that was fully cooked through. My partner had the Meatziah (I think that's the name), and it was excellent. My son ordered the classic and gave it a 5 out of 5, which is a huge deal coming from a notoriously picky eater. The appetizers matched the entrees. The waffle-cut nacho potatoes were outstanding: perfectly cooked, loaded with amazing bacon, and topped with a chili sauce that built a slow heat in the back of your throat in the best way. The mozzarella sticks were surprisingly great too. The food earns 4-5 stars on its own. But the service, and more specifically the apparent absence of leadership, is dragging this down. If we come back, it'll be for takeout only. IF.
