Super fresh oysters. I love raw oysters so order them wherever they’re offered. They provided horseradish upon request because I prefer the clean taste and then might add a little lemon and horseradish.
We also ordered the oysters with caviar. They were so tasty I forgot to take a picture of them.
Best paella we’ve ever had, and we’ve been to Spain. We enjoyed the crispy rice in particular.
Delicious and fresh whole fish. It was red snapper when we visited. It fell off the bones, and the flavor was superb.
Great cocktails (Negroni and dirty martini).
Excellent service. Even tho I didn’t specify outdoor seating in my reservation, they still accommodated it on such a lovely day. Host, waitress, and bartender were all fantastic.
Walking distance from Dominion Energy Center (we went to a show at the theater beforehand).
Definitely a repeat
An absolute delight! If we lived in Richmond this place would be on our regular rotation for sure.
We started with a dozen raw oysters and the shrimp cocktail.
The oysters were REALLY good and prepared perfectly!! (Almost no shell chips to be found in these.)
From there we had the grilled octopus. It is a beautifully balanced dish with every component adding to the overall presentation and taste of the octopus. Served alongside the octopus was a potato that was sliced thinnly and spread out like a deck of cards when sliced into. This served as a perfect way to gather some of the sauce & octopus & potato in one bite for a cornucopia of flavors. Easily one of the best dishes I've had in recent memory.
It was all so good we ordered another round of small plates.
I had the chowder and it was wonderful but paled in comparison to my companion's choice... The Trout Crudo.
I mean... wow! First, visually it's a work of art, and with as good as it looks it's taste is equivalent. If you are an adventureous eater this dish is for you.
We sat at the bar and the guys were fabulous.
The ambiance is straightforward and classy in an understated way.
Decorated for the holidays in a simple way that adds to the overall feel to the place.
Good service, great executive chef! They accommodated a big group with appropriate notice. A very fun downtown trendy restaurant vibe. The Manhattan was delightful. And we enjoyed the aperitifs immensely.
