We were driving back to North Carolina from DC when we found ourselves hungry and in Richmond- a…read morequick search on Yelp brought us to Manchu! This is a no-frills, hole-in-the-wall spot serving New Orleans-style fried wings, po' boys, and other comfort food. We got a bunch of stuff: - Crowd Pleaser (with fried fish, wings, Cajun fries, egg fried rice): The fish & wings were crispy perfection & still super juicy. We had them with the two most popular sauces- Mambo and sriracha aoili, both were delicious. The fries & fried rice were classic- the person working recommended eating the rice with a sweet sauce I don't remember the name of and gave it to us without any additional cost, which was so nice. - Shrimp Po' Boy: Again, fried & seasoned to perfection! - Chicken Banh Mi: This is a great option if you're wanting to avoid fried foods! Loved the refreshing veggies (cucumber, carrot, jalapeño) & creamy aioli. I do think it was missing pâté though. - Gumbo: Super comforting. Ambiance isn't really applicable since Manchu is take out only (there are some seats for waiting). Service was great, very friendly & fast. There is a free parking lot right next to the restaurant. 10/10 would recommend!

I ordered beef & chicken empanadas and the karaoke kool aid. Good drinks & great service. Got busy towards end for jazz night and our server for a little overwhelmed, but was still sweet and friendly! As for the vibe, I love all the photos around the place. There's a little stage on the side, not just for jazz night but apparently they hold events almost every night. Once it started getting dark out, it seemed more like an intimate jazz club with low, blue lights and table side lights & candles. Will definitely have to come back and try other items on the menu, it all sounded so good.

I first had Shrimps at a catered event so I already knew what to expect. I ordered the wingettes meal and it was just what I expected - excellent! The wings so so crispy, the Mac n cheese was so good and the yams are exceptional. The yams, the yams, incredible. The part of the experience that wasn't the best was the customer service. Everyone was kind which helped, but my husband and I asked for tartar sauce for his fish four times and never got it. From what I learned, it's homemade and like a staple for the fish, so that was very disappointing. While most of our needs were met, it didn't feel like it was a priority, so I would say maybe they need just a few more staffers on the team. Next time we might order takeout there instead. But, overall the food is incredible and that alone would make me order again.

But let me give you the cheat code: order the shrimp and chicken Alfredo. Thank me later. It's rich, loaded, and the portion size is ridiculous. Like "why is this plate this heavy?" ridiculous.

You won't get a lot of ambience here, but you will get a full belly for a good price. Cheers to that!

The food and service were top notch. We sat at the bar which gave us a good view of all the happening. There is plenty of room to sit inside as well as out. I am a sucker for smoked turkey and was extra excited to hear they still had some. That with the greens and potato salad was the perfect. The turkey was flavorful and juicy. The greens have just the right amount of spice and the potato salad cooled it down. Can't forget to mention the tortillas! So good! I will for sure be back.

Now let's talk food, because the wings and nachos here are absolutely to die for. The wings come out perfectly crispy with just the right amount of sauce, and the nachos are piled high and loaded in all the right ways. Every single time I order them I wonder why I ever eat anywhere else. But here's my pro tip -- hit happy hour. Trust me on this one. The daiquiris during happy hour are hands down the best in all of Richmond. Refreshing, perfectly balanced, and dangerously easy to drink. Fuzzy Cactus has the perfect combination of great food, killer drinks, and even better people. Do yourself a favor and get in there.

Came only for the wings and they definitely live up to the hype. Came out fresh and hot. The wings were huge and perfectly saucy - might be some of my favorite wings in RVA thus far. The buffalo sauce was perfect. We also got the sweet heat which was like a mild bbq sauce with a little bit of heat - the sauce itself was okay but the wings being perfectly cooked made up for it. Will be back again soon as our usual wing spot!
