And the workers were so nice. We ended up getting hush puppies, dried okra, and two crab cake sandwiches. I was so impressed with how fresh and delicious the crab cakes were. Soooo good.

First, lunch, custom Deli sandwiches (like hot ham and hoop cheese on a pretzel pun with garlic salt) soups, and the only salad bar in the area, all are great. For dinner I have had both the Steam Pot, which was fabulous and the steam scallops and shrimp, and several of their appetizers. For the private parties I been in charge of, the steaks are awesome, the shrimp and grits delish and the scallops with bacon jam on top were to die for. Chef Mitchell also sells the bacon jam by the jar. The only thing I could possibly complain about is that it's not open every night. Come ealy on the nights they are open. There's always a line.

The bus puppies can literally be a dish alone, the greens are just like my Pappy & GrannyB used to make them. We drive from outside of Richmond, VA at least 4 times a year to just let the delicious vinegar soaked pork melt in our mouths. And we're always taking several containers of pork and sides home with us. My Pappy grew up around here and I first had Ralph's at a family thing a few years after my GrannyB passed (my Pappy had been gone like 15+ years). My husband and I literally found out where my great aunts had the food catered from and we called in an order to go before we got back on 95 to head home. We've turned several family into Ralph's since. If the BBQ makes your tongue jump up and slap your brains loose.... That shit hits and you have to get more...
