    It’s was dirty. The prison that sat at the front door. Was on her phone with headphones in. Sat us at a dirty table. ‘Cleaned’ the table while we were sitting there and was still dirty.

    Everything was delicious. We had the garlic wings, burger with green beans and the fish sandwich. The Shiraz wine was our favorite on the menu. Service was great and the owner stopped by to check on us.

    Limited, random menu. Pasta Alfredo reminded us of boxed Mac and cheese. Burgers were charred almost to hockey pucks, edible if you like that. Asked for cokes and the syrup balance was entirely off - all syrup no carbonation. Took 15 minutes to get replacement drinks. Small seating area, and no separation from the bar area.

    One of the many good soul food restaurants in RIC, this one particularly good if you are going to a show at the National.

    My twin granddaughters had never been to a concert, so I purchased tix for Lauren Alaina as a surprise. I had heard about the Vagabond and the ‘early entry’ into The National. What a jewel we discovered! The atmosphere was perfect for a pre-theatre event. Menu is small all but diverse. We enjoyed the vibe and the food was excellent. The staff was impressive as well. I look forward to visiting the Vagabond for adult evenings in the future! Music and good food equal great night out!!
