    The waiters were helpful and informative. They knew the menu well and the smoky BBQ sauce is delish. We had fried oysters. Good texture outside but the flavor was in the sauce so ask for sauce on the side as well. The black bean burger was good but needed sauce I will add pickles next time. The fries were perfect! The wings were fine but they served one that was way too dry and over grilled. The smash burger came out great!

    I’ll try to avoid exaggeration here but I may have just had the best meal of my life. I had the special which was shrimp and sausage with orecchiette pasta and it was so good. I mean just really really incredible. My dinner partner had the famous 5 which is basically their spaghetti. It was the best spaghetti I have ever tasted and I’ve had plenty. The service was incredible. The entire meal took about 40 minutes from the time we sat down and we had an appetizer as well. The value is great considering we have leftovers for 3 more days and that is not hyperbole. This is the best restaurant for the money in richmond Virginia. Of that I have no doubt.

    Fantastic dinner. David Shannon rocks. Every morsel was over-the-top delicious and Kendel, our server, couldn't have been more polished, personable, and professional. The Vegan Orgy on Texas Beach was a complete flavor banger as promised, I would sell my soul for another bite of the Swank Bank — the whole thing is obscenely delicious, and the halibut was, of course, to die for. Thank you for a special birthday dinner.
