    Japanese Bowl with rice noodles
    Vanessa B.

    I LOVE Goatocado .. I'm a new vegetarian and they are so delicious and clean. They're not a "fake" healthy store where they use food with fillers because I've never felt bloated after eating there. I've tried the Vietnamese and Japanese bowl. My recent experience I added a side of rice noodles to my Japanese bowl and it was chef's kiss. I'll probably say that I love the Vietnamese the best so far but I still have others to try. My husband got the California tortilla and was shocked at how much he enjoyed it (why the camera didn't eat first). Anyways, I love stopping by here when we're in Richmond. Also, the staff is so nice and personable no matter the time of day. I've gone around closing and also mid day and their employees are chipper and so kind.

    Thai Ramen
    Khoa L.

    The thai ramen was absolutely delicious. The broth had such a pronounced flavor of lemongrass and it was fairly savory. Staff is very friendly. Everything in the restaurant is meant to reduce waste which is fantastic!

    My kid loves goats and avocados. So of course we had to eat here, thought it would be a cheap eats, but man does everything add up quick. Ramen was really good. Fun flavors really come together. Some things were just ok. I'd still probably eat here again if I lived in the area. Food comes out quick. Cute trendy little spot.

    Vietnamese Wrap
    Amandalynn W.

    This was very good and very healthy! I got a Vietnamese wrap and it was so flavorful and generously sized. Lots of vegan/vegetarian options. All their sauces are vegan too! It was $18 for my wrap, and so worth it! They have indoor and outdoor seating and plenty of street parking

    I had a really nice time here ! I was able to get a healthy twist on ramen but Mexican style without quinoa. I will be returning. I was even able to get a 100% veggie bowl but I didn't even feel like I needed meat. The food came out fast and the ambiance was so cute and they have outside seating!

    Was visiting family couple weeks ago and they recommended this place; everything was fresh and fast. I would definitely go back!

    If you're like me and searching for a restaurant with fresh, green ingredients, look no further--Goatocado will not disappoint. We decided to try something different this time around. My husband picked the Mexican ramen with gluten-free rice noodles, while my sister and I split a Mediterranean quinoa bowl with grilled chicken. The Mexican ramen quickly became one of my favorite dishes! It had a nice kick to it but wasn't too spicy (my tolerance level is low). My sister loved the Mediterranean bowl, though I think I prefer the California bowl, so I'll be trying that next time. The staff is nice and welcoming, and the ambiance is great for both small and larger groups, with ample indoor and outdoor seating.

    A solid healthy bowl that is quick and convenient!! I haven't been to their brick and mortar, but have had Goatacado several times from their food truck. Each bowl I've had has been filling, well balanced and nutritious. They also do a great job modifying for food allergies and have great vegan and vegetarian options.

    You order on a kiosk. This place is popular. That's great. Since we are from out of town this means they have great food. Friendly service and the outside seating is nice. Big wood tables. Beautiful day to eat outside. We loved it. Got a Mediterranean bowl and a Mediterranean bowl with chicken. Both awesome. Fresh spring mix with beautiful quinoa and all kinds of veggies. It is so pretty. I love all the colors. The chicken what grilled to perfection and what amazing flavor. Juicy inside. Topped with a Mediterranean dressing. The best bowl I have had. If your in the area pop by. It is awesome

    Great food and always quick service! I love this place when I'm craving a healthy but cozy meal. The patio is so cute and it's even more fun to dine out there in the rain. The menu items are pricey but it's worth it.

    Mediterranean Wrap
    Joshua Y.

    Fresh, veg, moist Great for late lunch, healthy focus friends, cheap beers This is my second time visiting this restaurant, and honestly, the first time wasn't that memorable. I decided to give this another shot recently when I was craving veggie-heavy bites for dinner. The food itself is very flavorful. It seems as though there's a good use of fresh ingredients, and for the most part, I find that the flavors are pretty well suited for the ways in which the food is presented: in bowls, wraps, and, what seems to be a new addition, Ramen. You order on your own at a kiosk and are notified when your food is ready. The only downside to ordering at the kiosk is that you have to press each individual menu item to find out what exactly is on that item, so there's a lot of selecting, voiding, and selecting to avoid. I do not recall seeing any sort of physical or printed menu. There's some pretty lovely seating on a good day. You can sit outside, and there's also a bit of inside seating. It looks as though they have a few sides, a couple of options for four-dollar beers, and some house-made beverages. Personally, I have some thoughts about the steps in preparing the food. There are many inconsistencies with the size of vegetables, which sometimes look like a small piece of red onion or a huge slice and cluster of them. This could easily be overlooked. It just depends on who you are and what you like. Tofu is lovely. I'm not sure what the secret is, but it absolutely works.

    Mexican Ramen. Without a protein. Very tasty, but the portions are too small given the price.

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.

They of course didn't let me down but I was so surprised on how great the food was. The Bang Bang broccoli was hands down my favorite. So tangy and sweet with this crazy crunch.

Burton's has such an amazing selection of alcohol. They don't even have rail alcohol just top tier offerings. I enjoyed an espresso martini made with tequila which was absolutely perfect.

I ordered a Philly cheesesteak and a Greek salad, which was a satisfying combination. The lunch crowd was lowkey and relaxed and I noticed about four people pull up and break out their laptops at the bar to work while they ate. My late lunch snaked into happy hour, so I ended up ordering a cocktail and a key lime pie for dessert. The pie had a delicous graham cracker crust and tasty key lime flavor; however, I was pretty stuffed by this point so I couldn't finish it. Happy hour was really bumping with a great crowd. Nearly every seat at the bar was taken and the music was pretty good. One bartender was on duty servicing the entire bar on her own and when happy hour hit, she got slammed. She held it down though! This restaurant is a fantastic spot whether you are looking for a relaxed lunch or a lively happy hour to wind down the day. Beautiful restaurant, great food and vibes! I'll have to stop by again the next time I'm in the area.

The staff were polite, but we had to ask several times to get items we were missing or things we wanted extras of. They checked in on us a fair number of times, but they still forgot to return to give us what we had asked for. By the time we were ready to leave, we still haven't gotten our dressings or our condiments. I also had asked for my burger to be well done, but I got a burger with quite a bit of pink in it. I didn't want to ask for it to be placed back on the grill because I didn't really want to wait longer for my food. Although I wanted my burger to be well done and I didn't get it that way, it was still pretty good. The fries though, I think was the best part of it. The fries were perfectly seasoned and crunchy! I also ordered a coke. Just a heads up, they don't do free refills on the sodas, so each cup is $4. My party also ordered salmon l'orange and a romano salad with salmon. My friends really enjoyed their main dishes, but we did ask for extra dressing. The restaurant is decorated in a boho-style vibe, and it was cute. We found the lighting on the side dining area to be a little bit too dim once the sun went down, but I do think it would've been perfect for a date night vibe. Overall, we had an okay experience.

It was kind of elevated chipotle! We finished the evening with coconut cream pie and a couple more Coors lights. The coconut cream pie was fluffy and slightly sweet. The only thing is the crust was a bit hard, but it was still very yummy!

Upon entering, I was reminded of a 1950s pharmacy by the humongous "Prescriptions" sign hanging above the bar, and the antique furniture, bar, and barstools splayed throughout Tarrant's. There was a solid crowd at the bar; it's clear there is a regular crowd that sits and hangs out here. We were promptly seated by a young blonde woman in the dining section (behind the bar). Our server, Nadia, was an enchanting brunette, training another young server, Sierra. She took our drink orders and gave us plenty of time to review the menu, checking in after a few minutes to see if we were ready. We finally decided, my partner ordered the 10" Bianca White (pizza), and I chose the Sailor Sandwich. Unfortunately, the sailor was not in the cards for me, and Nadia suggested the Reuben as they were similar. They brought out breadsticks while we waited, and the food arrived within 10-15 minutes. I was pleased with the atmosphere, the old-fashioned chandeliers, the large mirror, the floral paintings, and the rustic frames, all of which added to the restaurant's stated aesthetic. The pizza was hot and savory, while the Reuben had buttery toast, crispy corned beef, and a light smattering of sauerkraut (TBH, I didn't even notice the sauerkraut). For dessert, we indulged in the upside-down walnut apple pie, served with vanilla ice cream, all made from scratch, and beautifully delicate. Our time at Tarrant's Cafe seemed like a stroll into the past; the only indication of modernity was the ordering kiosk used by the staff. We truly enjoyed our time and had deeply meaningful conversations without enduring the hustle and bustle or the rowdy cacophony of an intense crowd.
