Good food, nice atmosphere. I make it a point to eat here every time I’m in Richmond!

We had a party of 6 - all with different preferences and palates. Tarrant's extensive menu was perfect for the occasion. Portions were large and value was good. There were a few components of the meal that could have been better (a few items were over-cooked but still tasty) but overall a very good place with excellent service. Beware, when busy this place can get loud - but lively and friendly. We'll be back

Great spot for lunch! We really enjoyed the veggie grilled cheese and especially the fried green tomatoes.😊

I think that $26 for penne ala vodka with shrimp is a high price. It was very good but would think that $20 would be reasonable.

We chose Tarrant’s for the food and the fact that we were going to the theater afterwards. The food was delicious and the service was great. Our only disappoint was the fact that they no longer had valet parking.

A good pre-November theater meal. Noisy. Ample menu. Consider making the bathrooms gender-neutral to help flow.

Great menu! Convenient to theaters....November, Lab, and Carpenter Center!!!

Saturday Brunch crowd was a little more dressed up than I anticipated. This is NOT a college pub.

It was delicious and we really enjoyed it and the waiter was superb.

Celebrating my wife’s birthday. Food was good, not great. My sons chicken and waffles was first rate, my daughter in-law specifically asked if the meat loaf had green peppers in it. Our waiter quickly said no. It did and she only ate half of it. My shrimp and grits sauce was sweet, not spicy and not much andouille. My wife’s eggplant Parmesan was tasty but way too much breading on the eggplant. She crab soup was amazing and so were the garlic rolls.

Fish tacos- excellent tacos, excellent rice
Chicken pot pie—horrible bc there was about 1 bite of chicken in the entire dish! Chicken pot pie should be LOADED w delicious, tender pieces of chicken... not one small piece .

We have been going here for years. It has become our 'go to' place to take out of town guests

As always - good for pre-theater dinner. We did miss the valet parking and now having to valet at Max's.

Fourth time eating at Tarrant's - and the most disappointing. Most of our orders - from appetizer to entree - were unremarkable. The Opakapaka, for example, was almost inedible until scraping off the too-sweet nut coating. We were disappointed, for the first time at this restaurant.

Unexpectedly, the restaurant was extremely busy, which meant a delay in being sitted and served. The food was as good as usual. A go to place before the theatre.

Food was subpar. Waitress was unethused. Tarrant’s out in Glen allen is fantastic though!

We usually love Tarrant's but were disappointed w the inattentive service and disinterest in our experience. Cucumbers were really mushy -not edible and should not have been served. When mentioned to the server she said "yeah, they didn't look so good". Also-food that was supposed to be hot was lukewarm. So was kind of disappointed.

If you book, make sure to make a comment where you wish to sit. this is the 2nd time they wanted to seat me at a table right outside the klitchen, not sure why they even have this table, its a terrible seating location.

Food and service were great. The menu has something for everyone.

We were very disappointed in nearly every aspect of our dinner. 5 minutes after ordering, we were told there was no more of one of the entrees we selected. Then our salads arrived before the bottle of wine. We flagged down the manager about the wine and he finally arrived with 3 wine glasses but no wine. After a bit longer, our server arrived with the bottle and then could not open it and so had to leave again. Wine finally opened and poured. Entrees arrived. The ravioli was COLD. The margherita pizza was like no other I have ever had. The crust was white - definitely needed more time in the pizza oven AND there was no red sauce and basil hard to find. I asked for a side of red sauce to put on the pizza and it arrived COLD. The pork chop and mashed potatoes were good but overpriced. I would have told them about the food but we had a show to catch and had no time to waste dealing with them. I will never go back. I am very frustrated we spent that much money on that food. Sad.

Everything was wonderful with the exception of how long it took us to get our food. Our waitress kept apologizing for how long it was taking and then thanked us for our patience when she closed out our check. The restaurant was busy but they should have been prepared since it was a a holiday weekend.

Delicious food and good service. The portions will leave you full and tastfully satisfied, so the price tag is justified.

Our "go to" favorite Richmond restaurant! Great management, atmosphere, staff, and food variety.

Appetizer never showed up. Fruit flies everywhere. Food was bland. We went a few doors down to Nama and ate a second dinner afterwards which was a much better experience with very flavorful food.

I treat my mother to brunch at Tarrant’s and the ballet every year. I forgot to ask for a table rather than a booth, however, the booth was comfortable for my 80 yo mother who has hip and knee issues and gave us lots of table top room. We had Poinsettias, She Crab soup and Eggs Benedict (traditional and crab cake). It was more than plenty and delicious. Service was good, although our server was not as outgoing and other servers we have had in the past. The noise level was ok until the table of 8 were seated behind us. Then conversation became a challenge. We were almost finished, so not a huge inconvenience. Overall, was an enjoyable brunch before a fabulous presentation of Swan Lake. We’ll be back for sure.

I've been to Tarrants several times and they never disappoint. Food and service are excellent.

Food was delicious -- garlic bread, calamari, salads, filet mignon, dulce de leche cake and a Spanish wine. All done beautifully. Server was well-meaning but not entirely cognizant of the menu or the wine. Also needed a top with better coverage like some of her colleagues; the exposure was embarrassing.

Consistently Great Food!
Tarrants is a charming Richmond restaurant, enhanced with art & antiques in a renovated old downtown pharmacy. The menu is broad, salads & platters are wonderfully prepared. The highlight is their 3 berry cobbler , served hot & crispy In A lasagna Pan, with 3 huge scoops of ice cream. Wow!!!

Perfect for my best friends birthday! Very LGBTQ friendly. We got the back booth- was a bit warm back there next to the kitchen. Eggplant parm was absolutely perfectly cooked. I was very impressed. Continues to be one of our favorite spots.

We’ve been several times in the past and had a better experience. The eggplant parm was mediocre

Everything was good as always. Except the crab cakes were very dry. Sometime these things can’t be helped. We will be back.

Was a great place to have my birthday dinner. I was in town for the weekend and ate there twice!

Had the Blackened Tuna. It was awesome. Had Fried Oysters for appetizer. Also awesome!! Can’t wait to go back!!

Good food; great waitress. We love Tarrant’s.

Solid meal. Blackened tuna was exceptional as was the she crab soup. Definitely planning on a return trip!

Tarrant’s is always a safe bet for great food and excellent service. Highly recommend fish specials and the she crab soup.

I’ve always enjoyed dining at this establishment

Our waitress was outstanding. We needed to fit in dinner before a basketball game. She made sure we had dinner and made it to the game. We loved the personal touch.

I so wanted to like this place. The hummus platter was amazing. The spinach crab dip hardly had any crabmeat. My she crab soup was not good at all. My daughter and friend had sandwiches which were adequate. Our server was amazing.

I must say that Tarrant’s has been a longtime favorite, although our two most recent visits were not what we have come to expect. This particular visit found the other diners particularly raucous, making it difficult to hold pleasant conversation with my companions. The server was pleasant and attentive, but not intrusive. The food was presented nicely, but somehow lacked the “wow” factor of previous visits. Maybe we just need a break.
