    Brisket Sandwich
    Gerdine B.

    I saw so many good reviews, I was so confused and disappointed. I couldn't fully finish my meal because it wasn't appetizing past my initial hunger. The brisket in my brisket sandwich was dry and not at all tender. There were no juices in the sandwich. Even the veggies in the slaw were dried out. I desperately needed some bbq and there was none in sight. The fries were also dried. Everything tasted air fried or something. I didn't enjoy it. I did like the cut and flavor of the fries. There was potential there I think. I was just a bit disappointed overall and cannot recommend.

    So I got home sweet home takeout via Uber eats the other day and it was so good! They have so many grilled cheese options and it's very much like a comfort food vibe. Definitely great on a cold , rainy day. We got the pretzel bites which were my favorite appetizer. They were doughy and not too fried. We also got the pimento cheese app. The pimento cheese comes with pita. It's really good but it's not my favorite homemade pimento cheese. Pretty standard. I loved my sandwich - it had hummus, Gouda cheese, and spinach! But it was still a grilled cheese so it was perfect for a rainy day to pair with the homemade tomato soup. It's vegetarian which I appreciate. I liked that there were cheese pieces in it that melt and it comes with little gold fish to go on top. Such a cute touch. I will definitely be ordering from here again!

    Hidden gem - found this place one late night after catching a show at the Altria theater. Best grilled cheese sandwich I've had in a loooong time. The fries were perfectly seasoned. Didn't take a picture of the tomato soup but it's a must - highly recommend a side with your grilled cheese sandwich. Drinks were great! The service was outstanding. The ambiance is chill. Cheers!

    Okay wow I LOVE this place. Gluten free bread is an option for any of the speciality grilled cheese (or you can build your own), so that's an immediate win for me. The drink prices truly can't be beat. They offer darts, etc upstairs which is so fun! Very few bars in the Richmond area still have darts. Cannot wait to come back here!

    Great happy hour and fantastic food reasonably priced. They only have a bartender working so you might have to go to the bar to order but the food is so good it's worth it. Three people, drinks, apps and dinner for $89. We are food snobs and go to all the best area restaurants but Home Sweet Home is a favorite. Highly recommend.

    This is one of my favorite hidden gems in Richmond. Their BBQ used in the grilled cheeses are phenomenal. Not pictured are the tater tots I got recently, which were also great. I was given a zesty aioli sauce to pair them with, definitely recommend. The pricing is great, especially the drinks! I cannot stress that enough, and their happy hour goes all the way until 8pm. The man who is always working at the bar is knowledgable and provides great service.

    loved the ambiance and cozy dive bar feel, but don't expect super attentive service. the grilled cheese was alright, but probably better off just getting a fried appetizer. would go back for the vibe and cheap drinks!

    This is the comfort dive bar you've been looking for - grilled cheeses in the menu, cheap beer on draft, and Caps hockey game playing in the tv. Friendly bartenders and servers, it is actually home, sweet home.

    Sebastian Eggs Hollandise and Avocado Toast with white cheddar grits!
    Barbara D.

    The ambiance is super chill, everyone here is incredibly nice, and the cheddar cheese grits are sooooo good. They serve Montana Gold bread, which I've really missed. On the left is the Sebastian Benedict. It was a delicious combination of poached eggs served on top of a perfectly seasoned Maryland style crab cake on an English muffin, served with an amazing Hollandaise sauce and a side of crispy rosemary seasoned potatoes. The combination of flavor and texture was culinary perfection. I can't recommend this place enough. It's been a while since I've been in Richmond, and this place does justice to how much I've missed it.

    Dive bar with great food. Definitely one of the more grunge places in Richmond. I've thoroughly enjoyed the grilled cheese every time although the tomato soup tastes like straight plain Campbell's tomato soup. There's a constant stream of smokers on the patio that probably isn't kid friendly.

    The Jerk
    Nikita T.

    Great dive bar vibes & atmosphere and good service! Got the smoked mac & cheese as an app, The Jerk grilled cheese for my dinner. Good overall was pretty good but didn't knock me out of the park to be honest! The grilled cheese had good flavors but there was barely any chicken it, which made the pickles kind of overpower the rest; the tomato soup that's served with it tasted like canned tomato soup or even marinara sauce to be honest. Good prices - especially for the drinks. This would be a great spot for some drunk food!

    They're running a BOGO special right now, so I ordered it to try the restaurant. I'm really glad I did! I got the "mac and me" and it was really good! The grilled cheese was toasted perfectly! The bbq was a little sweet with a little heat, which was great! Tomato soup was tart and just right, (although only about a 1/4 cup of soup if that much!), but not a terrible deal for $10 on Postmates, probably less in store or ordering directly. It's a bit of a drive from there to my place, so it was cold by the time I got it, but I can't fault them or the driver for that. I will definitely order again!

    Not worth the price, people smoking weed right outside, nasty bathroom, even the most expensive sandwich just tasted fine. Save your money.
