Pork chops, red skin potatoes, plantains
Ja'Nita D.

Soon as i open my car door i could smell some good flavors coming from the outside. I heard only good things about this restaurant. We took another shot once again to see if this restaurant will be as good as chicken fiesta. When I arrived inside, I was greeted immediately and placed my order. There was a 10 minute wait on the pork chops. As I waited for my food, more people came in. So that was a good sign to me. Once we arrived home and opened up the containers, the aroma from the chicken hit us in the face. The pork chops had that chargrill flavor we like and it was tender to eat. The chicken was not dry or tough. The sides are decent portions and are bursting with flavor as well. Hands down this will be my go to restaurant for that grill flavor I love so much. I will be trying the lamb chops and shrimp on my next visit.

Canastas never disappoints wether it's doordash or in store. You have to try the chicken!!! So fresh, right out the oven, extremely well seasoned (beware of sodium) but overall it's so good & can make multiple different meals from the whole chicken.

Half chicken with cilantro rice and plantains
Edna R.

The food was EXCELLENT. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, the cilantro rice was fluffy and also flavorful and the plantains were perfect and a nice sweet touch. The meal was $15 and I was given extra sauce free of charge. The service was fast and friendly. I will be back soon!

I love me some Peruvian Chicken! This charcoal rotisserie chicken ranks high on my list! The skin is nicely seasoned and the chicken is juicy and tender! I ordered the 1/2 chicken with cilantro rice with black beans and plantains for my sides, but the yucca was tempting! The garlic sauce was a perfect compliment to the chicken! It was all delish at $12. I also ordered a bottled tea, which brought my total to $16! Talk about sticker shock! Canastas has great food, a decent atmosphere with some outdoor seating, and ok service. I'll be sure to order water next time though! Come for the chicken, it's something to squawk about!

Chicken, cilantro rice, and plantains
Nicara B.

This food was absolutely delicious!!! The only reason it didn't get 5 stars is because those potatoes were a little hard and tasted a little old... but honeyyyyyyy..... omg... that grilled pork chop was everything i didn't know i needed!!! Goodness!! I will be back... this week... lol!! That chicken was so tender the bone just slid right on out... and those plantains!!! Whew chileeeee delicious. But back to the pork chop. It is cooked to order. It is in whatever their marinade is that they have and when we cut into it, it was just so tender and juicy!! Oh!! I forgot about the steak quesadilla!!! Goodness that thing was so juicy and delicious. I can't wait until I have to go back to that side of town on Wednesday lol!! Because listen to me when I tell you, this place DID NOT DISAPPOINT AT ALL!! Another plus was that the bathroom was very clean and the employees were nice!!

Salmon, cilantro rice & green beans
Aurora H.

This salmon!!!! Always hits!!!! Get the salmon, green rice & green beans!! Get extra green & yellow sauce! The passion fruit juice is great too!!! Their plantains are good too! I usually get my foos to go but the inside is very spacious. Service is always good.

Pollo Ever - so yummy

Always great food, cooked to order and fresh! Love how juicy any of the chicken dishes are and the staff is always so friendly.

Saw this restaurant mentioned several times on social media and decided to check it out. The first visit I tried the chicken. It was very flavorful and tender. For my sides I got the green rice and plantains; the green rice is tasty - I taste cilantro and that takes it up a notch for me. The plantains were cooked perfectly and they give you a lot... enough for two. My second trip I decided on the lamb chops and I enjoyed that nice wood fire/charcoal taste. I couldn't help but get the green rice and plantains again. If you're thinking of trying one of the traditional drinks, I would suggest the Maracuya (passion fruit). The customer service was great and service was fast. The Southside location offers indoor seating if you prefer to dine in.

Fried Plantain

I ate here for the first time last week and thought the food was good. Extremely large portions and I only hope it stays that way and not just to lure customers in. I also tried the chicken empanadas and those were very tasty. The cost was a little High but given the portion it is not too bad. I would eat here again.

Stephanie T.

Give me all of the chicken and chaufa and beans and plantains. I want to marry this restaurant I love it so much if you don't go here after reading this review then just go to jail because you committed a crime against yourself. Ok bye

Always a wonderful event when I get to go to Beauvine…read more Burgers are delicious, juicy, and filling, and not to mention the duck fat fries that inevitably end up on my plate! I've always had a pleasant time dining in, the staff has always been attentive to refill my drinks, and they always are willing to entertain a conversation with me, or entertain me with their conversation. Beauvine, in my opinion, is a staple of Richmond's food scene and is a MUST to anyone new or visiting the city and wants a fantastic, and reasonably priced, burger. With all that said, I think the name needs to change, Beauvine Burger isn't just a concept anymore, it's an entire thought.

If I remember correctly, their kitchen stays open until 2300 or 2330, which was nice. They have a lot of tables and chairs along bar seating. The bartenders that waited on us were polite, but it did take them forever to come back and check on me. I was going to order another drink, but because it took them quite a bit of time to get back to me, I ended up not forgoing the extra drink. I ordered a Bellytimber burger with a side of onion rings and a Beauvine's mule with raspberry flavor. My friend had ordered wings with a Modelo. My burger and onion rings were good, but my mule wasn't strong enough for me. It tasted quite watered down. The wings, my friend said, was alright. Overall, my experience was okay. I wouldn't mind coming back, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way.

Parking in the area is a little difficult and Sunday at lunch is no different. We were able to find street parking a few blocks down and were happy to enjoy the Spring weather. Eazzy Burger is a bit off of W Leigh St but adjacent to Ardent Craft Ales. The shared outdoor patio was casual with a contemporary flare and filled with Richmond 20-somethings. We easily found a table, put our things down, and headed in to Eazzy Burger to place our orders. The first thing I noticed is how creative the menu is! Craft burgers with a variety of options... everyone will find something they like. You place you order at the counter and then wait at your table until they call your name so be prepared! It took about 20 minutes (10 minutes less than what they told us!) for our 5 top to get our orders. The burgers were massive and the fries were cooked to perfection. An order of fries was missed but when I mentioned it to the expeditor at the counter, he was quick to remedy the situation. All in all, a 5 star experience!

That was the cherry on too! sweet, creamy perfection to end it all. Definitely coming back!

Only street parking is available, but it wasn't too difficult to find a spot. The atmosphere: Very rustic vibe with some farmhouse-style decor. They have table, high-top, bar, and patio seating available. The food: I opted for the Chicken and Waffles with a side of cheese grits. I chose to make it hot for more spice. It's served with one whole waffle, two large pieces of fried chicken, and syrup on the side. The chicken was not seasoned as much as I hoped and wasn't as spicy as I expected, which was a bummer. The cheese grits were alright as well, but not as flavorful as I hoped. My partner ordered the Double Barrel Bowl, and he really enjoyed it. It was packed with pulled pork and was plentiful and filling. The service: Great and kind service from Mave (I believe that is her name but I'm not entirely sure). She informed us about the daily specials and was attentive throughout our visit.

On this visit, I now live here and finally came back after 3 years. We were seated in their main dining area which made the experience for me totally different since we were cramped and by the door. We ordered our burgers and chicken sandwich and it was delicious, but just didn't have that same impression. Don't get me wrong food was good. It was just different. The thing I love here is the sauce options you can get with your order. Don't skip on trying them. Their burgers come with a salad and I wish there was another option like small fries or chips. Paying additional for fries makes the burger too expensive. Overall, I do recommend Burger Bach especially in Carytown where you can walk around afterwards. Just hoping they rethink those sides.

When I came in, I was greeted by the host that was super nice. I decided to sit inside and was offered a booth or the bar; I chose a booth. They also offer outside seating but since it was a nice, fall day, it was super crowded. I ordered the strawberry basil lemonade and the north lamb burger with a small dry. The lemonade was not as good as I thought it would be. I am honestly not sure it was real lemonade. It tasted like sour from the bar with strawberry puree and basil. My server asked did I want my burger pink or no pink. I chose pink thinking I'd get medium/medium well. In some spots it almost seemed raw. I didn't finish the burger. I couldn't get past how mushy it seemed because it was so pink. I did enjoy the flavors of the tatziki and garlic aioli. Definitely had potential to be a great burger had it been cooked properly. The Salad that comes with the burgers was good. It's just greens but it has a nice dressing! Their fresh cut fries were amazing. I had those along with their house made manuka honey mustard which was also really good! While I had trouble with the burgers, I'd try this place again to give it another chance! It's a friendly atmosphere with good music, and it is fairly priced!
