It was mid day so we were seated upstairs with no wait. Staff is super responsive and friendly. Outdoor seating was great with its view of the street below. Complimentary nuts and olives were given. Sangria was my drink of choice and it was delicious. I the drink was largely fresh made with their house wine and was so easy to drink. After a couple of glasses, I wanted to try their popular meat and cheese tray. I asked about a combo of both Spanish cheeses and meats. The sausages were excellent and the soft and hard cheese just added a nice touch to the snack.

Serving portions are more than enough and the starters could be eaten as a meal. We went for a date night without a reservation and ate at the bar. The bartender, Zach was really in his element.

I've been wanting to try The Stables for years, especially since The Stables Market closed in my…read moreapartment building. My boyfriend made a reservation for us for this past Friday night. Initial observations were that the vibe was cozy and cute but I was thrilled I brought a cardigan. It was rather chilly inside. For drinks, my boyfriend had a glass of orange wine and I ordered their turmeric mocktail, which tasted like a health food drink (in a good way). We also started with the rolls and butter. That butter was stellar. For our entrees, I ordered the fresh catch, which was flounder, and my bf had the rabbit ravioli with a side of beans. He cleared his dishes and also finished off what I couldn't eat of mine. Everything was really quite tasty. It seemed like a popular birthday celebration spot too, as two tables were marking the occasion. We were too stuffed for dessert. Prices were reasonable for the quality and aside from being chilly, I really enjoyed myself.

Plus I had heard great things about their Neapolitan pizza, so I was hyped to try it. Sooo bad news. The pizzas apparently weren't selling well enough, so they no longer offer them, nor will they be bringing them back in the future. They do have empanadas instead, though, which were quite tasty. I liked the margherita and the spinach ricotta. We also ordered a charcuterie plate after our server suggested it instead of the olives. Sadly it only had four olives on the plate, so we rationed. I wasn't a super huge fan of the plate, as it was heavy on crackers. I would've liked to see more variety for the price, including perhaps some fresh bread and more pickles. My boyfriend and my mom split crab fritters, and they really loved those. Between us, we purchased two wine flights and my mom had a moscato. They were out of many options, so perhaps they were in between inventory. The wines they did have were all great. I'd say overall our visit was nice. It wasn't groundbreaking by any means, and I'd be more likely to go to some of the other wine shops in the area first before returning -- but I do see a lot of potential here.

The Brussel sprouts and Fleming's potaoes could have used just a tad bit of salt. Our Tomahawk steak was cooked to perfection. The booth seating is what i requested and it was honored.

The service was nice enough but when I entered at 1PM on Friday. There were boxes everywhere. On the table tops, the menu board on the floor. There's no listed menu so you have to wait to get to the register to even see what they have. It really looked a mess in there and not like it was ready for patrons. I ordered my matcha which came out to almost $10!!!!! Imagine my surprise when the barista brings it out to me and it looks like swamp water and it tasted like diluted milk with a hit of matcha. I was so disappointed and I really wanted to ask for another drink cause $10 down the drain is tough but I just left. Based on the barista and the look of the establishment, it probably wasn't going to get any better. I'm really losing hope in getting matcha from cafes in Richmond. Truly so disappointing. I threw it away as soon as I walked out the door.
