    Our server was fantastic, and the manager even checked on us at the end of the meal. Tasty, seasonal food as always. I especially enjoyed the she-crab soup!

    Same as always which is why we keep returning. I guess they were short staffed because service was slow. They were apologetic. Still had pleasant time.

    It was my first time there. I made a reservation solely based on online reviews, but my friend, who joined us, is from Richmond and reassured me I made a good choice. The interior was cool as it was formerly a drug store. The food was really good and the service was great. I had the sea scallops on basil risotto . Yummy! My daughter had the NY strip which was good but a little too fatty. Overall, a really nice place.

    The comfort food of downtown, and that is a big compliment in my book. A good history, friendly folks working the room, good food.
