Edo Squid. Some of the best Italian food Iāve had
Ate at Kuba Kuba last time I was in Richmond and really enjoyed it for breakfas/brunch.
Looked it up and is in Freshs wheelhouse āno reservations or online orderingā Huge Like!
Edoās (Italian), Stellaās (Greek) & Can Can (French) are all goodā¦recommend calling ahead for reservations on all 3. Edoās is pretty small seating. Tulsi for Indian is really good.
The bigger questionā¦why Richmond? NoVA/DC has as much, if not more, to offerā¦
Not hating on the RIC, thoughā¦spent 10 years there at school and workingā¦
Lolaās Farmhouse Bistro in Manakin Sabot
In the interests of pretending a football game wasnāt happening, had dinner at Bulpan tonight. Iād eaten at the other Korean bbq place twice and it was fine, so I didnāt get the negative reviews. I mean, it wasnāt great but it was ok.
Now that Iāve eaten at Bulpan, I get it. 100% donāt bother with the other one. Seriously, itās 100x better and about the same price range.
Yāall are fine diners; I just go to Mission BBQ, lol!
Excellent. Making plans with a friend who wants to do KBBQ, and we were agnostic on which one to go to, so now Iām going to push for Bulpan.
Will drop a tip of my own: while we donāt lack for choice with the Mexican/Latin American food options in town, I think my current favorite is a little spot next to the gas station at Avon/Market St, Taqueria El Comalito. No frills, but itās good stuff.
Wait, not Guadalajara #4 or whatever? Iāve been to that gas station a million times and donāt remember another Mexican place there.
Nope. Across the street from that Guadalajara. It opened maybe a year ago or so?
Got to watch the beat down in afternoon and my group is now trying to figure out dinner in cville.
A couple people want steak but we donāt want to go anywhere super fancy. Any quick recommendations for a good place to go that would have good laid back atmosphere and a decent steak and other food? Live music or general fun atmosphere would be a bonus.
Itās a non traditional steak, but Conmole has a steak dish that comes with tortillas and black beans and a tasty sauce. Good vibes place, but might not have tables.
South and Central is fine too, though thatās getting more on the pricey end. I think they sometimes have live music.
Quality Pie usually has a steak frites dish; another pretty casual atmosphere.
Super casual and not much atmosphere at all, but the carne asada at Taqueria El Comalito might be one of the better value steaks around too. Itās not the most amazing prime cut of meat haha, but cover that bad boy in salsas and itās real good.
Thanks! Just got reservations at conmole though it was close call Between that and south and central.
All great recommendations though.
Quality pies menu has changed a lot since last time I was in there for $4 slices of pie.
I was in town last Sunday and ten of us went to The Local - pretty good, pretty casual, my braised short ribs were very good, 3 or 4 other folks got the tenderloin which they all liked.
They still do $4 pie! My wife and I meet there for ādate breakfastā sometimes, and itās a very different vibe than their more upscale dinner.
Chilis
My favorite steak (and Iām not really a steak guy) in cville is at C&O- the steak chinoise
56th in the get off my lawn seriesā¦
I donāt understand the Raising Canes love. I mean, if you donāt have taste buds go for it. But how does anyone stand their bland chicken? Itās as if seasoning of any kind is illegal there.
So howād it go @lexingtoncav?
