    The tacos were delicious I had lamb chicken and lamb I had a classic margarita The owner/ cool came out to speak to us because one of the people with me is a vegetarian and he made her a specific taco

    The music was great as was the food! We had a work meeting at this establishment and they were great in having us in a separate area to discuss our work related goals. The staff were great and attentive. I ordered the grits with shrimp as my protein and can say I will be going back. The mimosa towers were a hit, with most of our group preferring the mango one.

    Service was slooooooooooww. They seemed short staffed. Extremely short staffed. Fish had little bones and wasn't fried hard enough for ... yes I requested it Grits were a 10! Margarita pictured was a 10.

    I wanted to like this place but I honestly couldn't. It took almost an hour to receive my food. Once I got my food I still had to wait another 5 minutes for silverware. At that point I was ready to eat but I couldn't because my food had so much grease it was inedible. I wasn't charged for it but there is a 20% gratuity added the remaining food. I expect better when the price of each item is $15 and up.

    So glad we ran into Cook Big P of PacQ, at that Buttermilk and Honey. Buttermilk and Honey was the 2nd black owned restaurant we TRIED to patronize for breakfast on a cold Sunday morning, only to receive no greeting, no service, and ultimately walk out! The first and the worst was The Riviera restaurant that morning. Ironically, Cook was a customer at Buttermilk but was the only person to greet us. He even opened the door for us. He saw how frustrated and disappointed we were and when we were leaving, he told us to check out his place of employment, PacQs. Said it was his day off but we would not be disappointed with the service or food. He was right! We were promptly and warmly greeted by 3 hostesses at the door and seated. We loved the variety on the menu, especially the flavored lemonade choices. Their potatoes are bomb and the French toast was not overly sweetened or soggy. The salmon cakes are the closest to homestyle that I've ever had at a restaurant and they were not packed with filler. I have already recommended them to a group of family that will be in Richmond later in the week. We will also return. I wish them success and hope they maintain their level of service because too many black owned restaurants in Richmond have forgotten about service!! It doesn't matter how good your food is or who owns a place, if you can't provide me with a warm and prompt greeting, you don't deserve my hard earned money or time!!!

    Long wait, no server was at the front for about 20 minutes. Multiple parties booked at the same time. It was also my birthday.

    Land of Saffron is fabulous! They are a Richmond-based food pop up and caterer that serves…read moreauthentic Spanish paella. They offer two styles: traditional with chicken, shrimp, and mussels, or vegan with white truffle oil. Both of course have the usual Spanish rice and vegetables. A heaping portion served in paper bowls costs about $12 and you can add the truffle oil to the non-vegan paella for $1. I first sampled their offerings at the Broad Appetit food festival, and was amazed watching them cook for the masses. I've never seen such a large paella pan in my life! Even with thousands of potential customers milling about, their attention to detail was striking. The seafood and chicken was beautifully and symmetrically laid out in the pan where it cooked, and the staff made sure each scoop had identical servings of protein. Most importantly, the flavor is phenomenal. They have the recipe down to a science, so even in enormous batches both the rice and meat is perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The combination of the tangy rice, succulent proteins, and acid from the peppers makes it very well balanced so no one component overwhelms the others. I also absolutely love the vegan version, which has such a great earthy, luxurious flavor with the white truffle oil. It's umptious, comforting food that leaves you stuffed and satisfied. They do not currently have their own website or Facebook page, but you can find them on Instagram, the AllEvents Richmond website, and on Facebook Events where they're pop ups are announced. They frequent Final Gravity Brewing and/or Ardent Craft Ales every other month or so. The pop up aspect does mean that you can't satisfy your craving whenever it calls, but it makes it feel a bit exclusive. It also feels a bit like a community, because you start to recognize other loyal fans and friends of the owners. I absolutely recommend it to paella lovers and novices alike!

    The paella is incredible and Daniel is just the absolute best. We have used him for our past 2…read moreChristmas parties both times everyone was blown away. If you get a chance to have this paella, do not pass it up.

    We're new to RVA, and really trying to support non-chain restaurants. Found Lunch. Supper! here on…read moreYelp. Our cocktails were delicious and so nicely prepared. Hubby had short ribs, Brussels and cheese grits. Kiddo had chicken and waffles with gravy, and I had the Barbecue Sundae. All three were so tasty! Each dish, whether main course or side was executed so beautifully. The collards on the sundae were the best I've ever had. If I could cook them like that, I'd have them more often. Our server was attentive and so so nice. The decor is adorable and the atmosphere was fantastic. Can't wait to go back!!

    My partner and I had dinner at Lunch. Supper! last Friday, and it absolutely lived up to the hype…read more The atmosphere is casual, welcoming, and lively without feeling overwhelming. The menu has so many tempting options that it was hard to choose, but we both landed on the Hot Chicken Sandwich with cayenne butter--and we're glad we did. It had the perfect amount of heat: enough to bring some spice without overpowering the flavor. On the side, I ordered the green beans after our bartender/server highly recommended them. Normally, green beans wouldn't be my first choice, but they were seasoned perfectly and ended up being one of the biggest surprises of the meal. My partner chose the mac and cheese, which was the superior side (although both were excellent). The service was friendly, attentive, and genuine throughout the evening. Despite arriving on a Friday night without a reservation, we had no trouble getting a table. They only accept reservations for parties of 5-8, so I'm glad we decided to take our chances. One of my favorite parts of the evening was chatting with another guest at the bar. He and his wife shared several entrées with their young son, and they couldn't stop raving about the short ribs--which their son happily claimed for himself by the end of the meal! They also highly recommended the salmon, so we've already got ideas for our next visit. The only real downside has nothing to do with the restaurant itself: parking in Scott's Addition can be a challenge. I'd recommend allowing yourself some extra time to find a spot or, even better, taking a rideshare so you can start enjoying your evening right away. Lunch. Supper! has earned its reputation as a longtime Richmond favorite. Great food, excellent service, and a relaxed atmosphere make this an easy five-star recommendation. We'll definitely be back.

    Hubs and I stopped by here around 12:45 on a weekday because this place looked awesome. Shawarma on…read morethe south side of Richmond? Yes please! There is a pretty small public parking lot directly across the street, and it was full, so I'm not 100% sure if we parked in the public parking or the parking lot of the glass shop next-door since there weren't really any signs. I really hate parking in the middle of any town, but it wasn't too bad. But I'm still not sure if we could've gotten a ticket or not. You seat yourself in this really awesome classic rock themed restaurant. The decor is great, a perfect mix of interesting things to look at, without being super claustrophobic-ly overwhelming. It is really cute. We took a minute to look over the menu, and decided on the house cut chips appetizer, and both a beef and chicken Shawarma for us to try both. The beef Shawarma was delicious. I really like the seasoning that they use on their meat or sauce or something. I never could place what it was or where it was, but the flavor is just heavenly. A little sweet, a little savory and delicious. The fresh pickled veggies were also amazing. They were still crisp with that snap that you really want with pickled foods. Chicken Shawarma was definitely my favorite since it had slightly different pickled vegetables. They were both good, but the chicken was definitely my favorite by just a touch. The bread was a little hard and chewy for my likings, it definitely stood up to the creamy sauce and the juicy pickled vegetables, but it almost hurt my teeth if you just had a dry spot that hadn't been soaking in some form of liquid. The house cut chips are just OK, nothing special by themselves, but that trio of dipping sauces was amazing. We were dipping our fries into it because we liked those a little better than the chips, but we ate almost every drop of that sauce trying to figure out which one was our favorite. one of the hot sauces is blueberry and very sweet with a mild spice, one is I think mango and not spicy initially, but when you swallowed, you definitely felt it burn in the back of your throat. It was a nice sneaky heat, which I love. And the third dipping sauce, we could not place, but we literally could not figure out which one we loved the most. They have a patio outside with lots of tables, but we did not go out there. It looks cute in the pictures though. The downside, is that while the service was very great, if you catch them out a bad time, they don't yet seem to be able to handle huge amounts of orders. They've only been open for about two months, I think, so that will come in time. It seems that they only have one guy cooking in the back, so we were unluckily there at the same time as a table of eight people. If we had all the time in the world, I could have sat and stared at the decor for ages. But unfortunately, if you are on a lunch break or have to be somewhere, they could potentially be so backed up it takes quite a while to actually get your food. It was a rare and random set of circumstances, and probably does not happen often, and she generously comped our chips which was not necessary but was very appreciated. The service here is absolutely top-notch. We will definitely be back for more of that delicious Shawarma. Definitely earlier in the day though, so we can sit as long as we want.
