Cloe is a gem- I made a huge mistake ordering from the wrong location and she immediately had the order remade at the location I frequent- she relieved my stress and got the order turned around quickly. So grateful to her- what great service!! read more

Went for my birthday lunch. Never been to any branch of this restaurant. Nor will I go back. You get room tempt tap water, small portions, high prices, spotty service. The prices were way too high compared to how much food you're actually given. They weren't too busy for how spotty the server was. Didn't like the atmosphere. read more

This place is a go to stop on my trip to VA visiting friends each year. Service is always good and attentive for lunch or dinner. They have a full bar as well as indoor and outdoor seating on a covered patio with fans. On this trip, we ordered drinks from the cocktail menu which were great and the meatballs for appetizer which come with four pieces and some bread. Entrées, we ordered the PESTO & VODKA SAUCE pizza ... very good and a wedge salad with shrimp added. Very delicious! read more

Tazza's has always been a go to location. I have never had an issue here until tonight and I feel it was handled so poorly that it was worth noting. We came as a party of 2, no reservation. We put our name in but then saw 2 friends at the bar. We approached them and began to chat. We were never asked if we would like a drink which is very unlike the other Tazza's locations. Eventually the party of 2 sitting next to our friends got up and we went to sit down but apparently another couple was thinking the same. Our friends suggested we just pull an extra chair to the bar as there was enough room. One bartender in particular seemed bothered by this but did not say anything initially as it was happening. When we were finally approached after sitting she chose to publicly scold my husband for taking the chair and tell him not to do that again. It was not said in a playful or kind way either. Now why was she not able to say, "oh hey we aren't allowed to do that" when it was happening? Why was she not able to say, "hey I have got a few people getting ready to leave and we can shift some chairs around shortly but we can't take from other tables" What happened (the shifting of chairs) was very common for bar experiences, and clearly we had no idea and had no malicious intent. If she had said something immediately he would have apologized and put the chair back. But no she chose to publicly scold him at the bar. It was a completely off putting experience. Had our friends not been there and knowing they have a longstanding relationship coming to this location I would have left out of how off putting her choice of handling it was. She warmed up and was kinder as the night progressed but the initial situation could have been handled so much better as again 1. We didn't know and 2. We had no ill intent. The food was still good as always. The goat cheese and dressing was also left off my salad but after the initial experience I wasn't going to dare say anything. I think I left there more confused than anything else. read more

Visited Tazza kitchen after years of not going, I fear the sentiment remains the same. Such a cute restaurant with beautiful ambience. The service was amazing and fast. The food was good, however, the portions are so incredibly small. In order to feel satiated you have to order a few items. The food is also on the expensive side. I ordered the brussels sprouts which were pretty good as an appetizer. I got the shrimp tacos with sweet potatoes that was incredibly delicious too but as you can see the portions are so small. They also have really good cocktails and cocktails so I definitely recommend. I also recommend coming for happy hour cause then the food and the drinks would be worth the price. read more

TLDR; casual vibes, delicious food, friendly service. Vibes - this Tazza is much more casual and rustic than the other locations around town (like Scotts Addition). We came for lunch on a Friday and sat at the bar. The bartender was friendly and gave great recommendations but the service was less attentive than what you would get at a table. Food - my husband got the spicy sausage pizza (as always) and I got the Baja bowl with brisket. Both were delicious! We shared a side of sweet potatoes which were good but soooo small and wildly overpriced. I also got a Coke which came in a can so no refills :( I wish I knew that before ordering. read more

The Bloody Mary is pretty tasty! A lot of the entrees are good too, but it can be a bit overpriced. Some regular offering of specials of a more moderate price would be nice. Overall, I like Tazza. read more

Pizza, tacos, wood fired grill. What's not to love about this neighborhood staple. I may be a little biased, given my wife and I had our engagement dinner here some years ago but Tazza has never disappointed. We sat on their spacious patio for this trip to enjoy the great weather starting off with a couple of the spicy cocktails off their summer menu. The rotating cocktail menu is both approachable and adventurous with the likes of a gochujang oleo in the death drop. Their streaks and scallops are always properly seared just as their staff is always courteous and prompt. Tazza has something for everyone. read more

Amazing food and unbeatable service. Susan took care of us from the start, answering questions and just overall being a pleasant server. She truly made us feel at home, and her charismatic energy did not go unnoticed. Items are clearly labeled gluten free and the staff was very knowledgeable regarding allergy questions. We went for an early lunch on a Saturday and had no problem getting a table. Service was incredibly fast and the food was fresh and hot. Their lunch menu had some great deals on it, and the overall prices were reasonable for the quality. My only complaint is that the soda is from cans, but our server checked in multiple times offering refills, so it wasn't horrible! read more

I've never been to the Midlothian location, but always enjoyed the short pump one for lunch. We went to dinner at the Midlo one and apparently I've been missing out on a ridiculous selection of cocktails. Serving staff was very friendly and the outdoor ambience is perfect for anyone who loves eating outside. read more

Another amazing experience. We had a large group with 6 children and 9 adults. Our waitress, Katherine, was incredible! All of our food came out accurately and it was all delicious. I ordered sangria as well as a mixed green & goat cheese salad. I added the seared ahi tuna to the salad and it was perfectly cooked!! The salad was perfectly dressed and had plenty of the toppings mixed in. The sangria was refreshing, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The team is always amazing here and I highly recommend it! read more

Food was amazing, cheeseburger, flat iron steak with a fried egg on top, prosciutto and arugula pizza. Each of us had a great meal. The sangria was delicious. Ambiance was great for talking but could have used a little more light. All in all it was another delicious meal at Tazza Kitchen. We will be back. read more

We sat at the bar and it was dim and low lit. Very cute inside with nice, spacious outside seating. We came for a quick bite and got the white sangria mini carafe, 2 watered down shots, and the nachos (specifically with the cantina chicken). Our taste buds were satisfied and s/o to the bartender for the nacho recommendation. The shots being watered down was slightly disappointing read more

Cute family-friendly aesthetic spot in the suburbs with nice outdoor dining ambiance. We tried a few healthier options, with the Crispy Potato Salad and cauliflower apps, both of which were good, we surprisingly really enjoyed the refreshing salad between bites of cheese, as we also tried the melted goat cheese app. The goat cheese was warm and mixed with marinara, and dipped in bread was tasty even if simple! For mains we had to try the Vodka Pizza - delicious. The sauce, cheese, and drizzle of pesto made each bite such a good combo, appropriately salty and creamy. Definitely recommend Tazza Kitchen but either come early or make reservations because it can get packed pretty early with on weekends especially. read more

It took me eleven years, but I finally found a restaurant with an amazing crabcake here in Richmond (Midlothian). Thank you Tazza Kitchen for satisfying my crabcake void since moving here from Baltimore. Great restaurant. Great service. I was there with 14 other women and our server handled our entire group on her own. Can't wait to go back! read more

My boyfriend and I were staying at a nearby hotel and after searching Yelp, we decided to give this restaurant a try. The ambiance was cozy and features an open kitchen concept. I was very tempted to try a pizza since the wood fire oven is visible from the dining area, but I was craving something a bit lighter. We decided to start with chips and queso, which were delicious, but definitely could have used more queso for the amount of chips. For our entrees, we selected the cheeseburger and chicken tinga tacos. Everything was well seasoned and I really appreciated being able to have fries as my side instead of beans. Service was really good, however our waiter was a bit overzealous. He explained multiple times that it was his first day and to be patient with him, which honestly if he had never mentioned it we wouldn't have known. It became a bit awkward as he kept almost apologizing for no reason. Overall this is a cute spot and definitely seemed to be a bit of a local favorite. read more

Good bar and drinks. I took my mother to a Sunday dinner and it was an absolute disaster. She ordered a vegetarian dish and we paid an up charge to add shrimp. They were meticulously placed around the rim of the bowl. They were overly firm and overly cooked. Very small, maybe the size of a nickel. The shrimp had absolutely no flavor and the texture was mealie, and I can't believe that an actual chef would provide this meal with confidence. When we told our waitress, she must've told the manager who just walked up to us and said how is everything and we said fine with reservation as she was cold and a bit aggressive. She walked away and took it. She didn't ask specifics and it was a quick flyby. I swore I would never go again. I did return about a year later and had a lovely meal with both my mother and husband. Our server was charming. I'm not willing to take the risk anymore. My mother and I ordered pizza for dinner and enjoyed an appetizer. My husband's meal was good. After that Sunday night when we clearly were taken advantage of when the manager knew how dissatisfied we were, the insult still stings! I always think twice before I come back to this Tazza location. read more

From the start the experience was well below par. Dirty silverware. Slow service. Extremely small portions. My food lacked taste. The most egregious aspect of the very disappointing visit is when the staff began bashing a sister resturant. Jealous much? read more

If you're wondering if you should check this place out, I would say yes. The atmosphere as soon as you walk in is relaxing and "cool" simultaneously. Our server was very prompt, friendly, and helpful. She made several trips to our table before and during our meal. It's hard to improve on a simple Chicken Alfredo dish, but it was delicious. The noodles were just buttery enough, big chunks of chicken, and the alfredo sauce was creamy, as it should be. Full bar clean restrooms, decent parking. I would go here again. read more

I usually go to the Tazza in Scott's Addition since it's closer to me. This one has a decidedly different vibe--more grown up (while Scott's Addition is younger, more hip). It's larger. Less crowded. Food is just as good, although portions seem a bit smaller. Service was fine for me, although others in my party felt it was a bit off. read more

This was the strangest dining experience I've had in a long while. The waitress greeted me with, "Hi, I'm A. and I will be taking care of you tonight." Only she didn't. I asked her about the specials. Her reply was, "They are on the paper on the table. They are really good. I recommend them." I wanted her to tell me about them, not read them. Okay. Every time she came by the table, she said, "How's the.... (water, did you want anything else? appetizers? etc.) I had to ask her to take our order. I had to ask her for to go boxes. I had to ask for the check. She even rolled her eyes when I asked for the check. When she came by with the to go boxes, there was no place to set them, and she didn't pick up any dishes. In fact, the service was all given by people other than her. Other people brought out the appetizers and the food. Other people cleared plates. I was thinking, "What kind of place is this? Does everyone do everything?" Then I remembered she said, "HI, I'm A. I will be taking care of you." Other than that, things were fine. The atmosphere is pleasant. The food was good. It's rare that a restaurant menu has vegetables other than salad and fries. They had brussel sprouts. They were moist and flavorful. The nachos were good. I ordered the arugala and prosciutto pizza. It tasted like it was from Naples- so that is good. It wasn't all bread that sits in your stomach later. None of the food was hot. It took 90 minutes to eat. I don't think that was the kitchen's fault. I think that was the waitress. Hopefully, you will get a different one and have a better experience. read more

On a recent trip to Richmond I went to Tazza for lunch, I had the pork carnitas taco and one shrimp taco, both were excellent! The sever recommended the crunchy potato and arugula salad as a side. Seemed like an interesting combo, so I gave it a shot. She was spot on. Great recommendations. I enjoyed my lunch so much that I decided I'd go back for dinner. That was an awesome move again. I had a nice Albarino to go along with the bartenders's recommendation of the crab cakes with french fries, perfect combination. Great service, great food, nice friendly atmosphere. Definitely will be back on my next trip to Richmond. read more

Came for dinner with hubby tonight. Arrived at opening and were seated right away. Our server was friendly, though a little inattentive once a few other tables were seated. We started with the meatballs appetizer. Meatballs were fall apart tender and I could taste the various meats. They were yummy. The meatballs are mini and the dish is served with some bread to dip in the sauce. The sauce could use a little something to zshuzsh it up. Not bad, just nothing super flavorful. Our Main meals were a pizza and the flank steak. Hubby said his pizza hit the spot (he was craving pizza). My flank steak was very good. I LOVED the salsa verde and the potatoes were very good. The steak was a bit cold, but flavor was good. The egg didn't really add anything. I would order this dish again. We did wait longer than we would expect for our server to check on us, as someone else had brought our meals out. We had finished our meals and I had gone to the restroom and returned before he came to check-in and we asked for our check. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and the atmosphere was jolly. All tables in our section were full and it was nice to feel like everyone was happy and taken care of. We will return and I would suggest others give this place a go! read more

Tazza is one of my go to places. I love the ambiance. Even though it tends to stay pretty busy, service is quick and attentive. I love the food that the cook, just sometimes there's slight inconsistencies. I ordered the Simple Salad and added Steak. I loved the cook on the steak, just some of the pieces were tough and chewy.

We started with the chips & guacamole, which was good but nothing special about it. However, I couldn't recommend the shrimp tacos and fried green rice enough! I was skeptical to try the rice as my side, considering the name, but I was delightfully impressed. Despite looking like a smaller meal, this was actually very filling and I had leftovers. They were generous with the shrimp, toppings, and all of the flavor. To top it all off, the service was also great. I have visited their other locations (Short Pump and Scott's Addition) and was most impressed with this location. I will definitely be back. read more
