Discover Richmond

Taking its name from a town near London, due to a striking Thames River resemblance, Richmond puts both an urban and a historical spin on its dining scene. Fresh and modern menus make their home among train trestles, cobblestone streets, and renovated tobacco warehouses. Richmond chefs create unique dishes with farm-fresh ingredients, organic vegetables, local beef, and Chesapeake Bay seafood. Just a sampling of creative choices includes fried green tomatoes with polenta and shrimp, asparagus salad with goat cheese and sunflower seeds, house-made gnocchi, and ceviche prepared with Virginia flounder, olives, and cilantro. Local breweries and cideries are at the forefront of the dining scene, and many of them celebrate new brew releases with live music and food trucks. Take your pick from steakhouses, wine bars, European-inspired bistros, barbecue joints, casual seafood restaurants, and sandwich shops all over town.
