    murat's cafe

    You might miss Murat's if you're not looking for it. Nice little Turkish cafe in the Gayton area with an even nicer owner, Murat who has his training center adjacent, which produces champion runners. I tried the panini, herbal tea and baklava. Delicious panini with the absolute best feta I've ever tasted. I'm not a baklava fan and this was also the best baklava I've ever tasted.

    We wanted to try this family owned local spot and support our local businesses! The couple that runs the cafe are lovely and it's an interesting mix of a cafe with a training facility in the back. The owner, Murat, was a former Olympic Marathon champion in Greece and used to train the Turkish national team. He works with individuals, seniors and others looking to stay fit and flexible. He was very friendly and personable with us and other customers. It's a lovely spot for a coffee or Greek dessert or pastry. We had never tried a Turkish breakfast before, and weren't super hungry, but opted for a breakfast panini to split. It was an interesting mix of flavors with scrambled eggs, pickles, tasty Turkish sausage and a smear of red pepper spread. The place is filled with inviting plants and local artwork and the owners are clearly delighted to serve their neighbors. We were a little surprised to see the steep price increase on food items, but realized the menu posted on yelp was from 5 years ago!! All in all Murat's is a lovely spot to meet up with friends and neighbors over a traditional coffee or pastry. Uploading newer photos of the menu so people can see current offerings.

    My girlfriend and I were absolutely craving wings. I haven't had great luck at wing stop, and with…read moreBuffalo Wild Wings gone from short pump we decided to try out cocky rooster, and let me tell you, we were extremely happy with the food. We were starving and wanted some left overs. Ended up ordering online 2 orders of 15 wings, 30 total. We were able to divide each order into two different sauces giving us 4 different sauce tossed wings. Absolutely incredible wings. The wings had a ton of meat on them, we were able to ask for all flats for a small fee which was awesome, they're our favorite. They were ready as soon as I walked in the door. Maybe a 15-20 minute tops turnaround on the online order. We got: -Kickin Cowboy (Honey BBQ) -Truffalo (Truffled Buffalo) -Vampire Parm (Garlic Parmesan) -K-Town Rolex (Korean BBQ) -The ranch was in larger to go cups than I was expecting so I was really able to give these wings a ranch bath, didn't run out of it. Every single one of those sauces was amazing. I can't recommend this place enough if you are looking for some great wings. 10/10 experience would recommend to anyone I know!

Somebody yells your name and YOU pick it up. When done, YOU bus your own table. No humans. So what is the tip for? 5 wings and fries is like $13. No drink. A little pricey but ok. The wings; Garlic Buffalo, with ranch fries. The fries were good. Coated with a batter. So if you like regular fries, not sure you would like them. The wings tasted OK. The sauce was pretty mild and packed with I assume jarred garlic bits. The wings were soggy and swimming in sauce. I ate 3. No point in wet soggy wings. The portion was very large - cook the wings longer? I am not sure of the reviews. Maybe this place is new and it is a hit and miss. Maybe people come out to the eating area so they can see what's going on? The look is standard chip shop. Nothing fancy.

I can never eat more than half of my sub at a time because they are SO BIG. Some might complain in the price, but you are getting what you ask for at Sandanos! This place is a staple in our house. Highly recommend this small family run business. Deff call ahead and pick up when you get there! They're a small operation, with great customer service. Always very clean. They have some board games on the tables while you wait for food!!

There's a bunch of chains and food places around so it can be easily overlooked. If you want a hefty solid classic sub sandwich...this is THE PLACE to order from. It's literally the definition of a "hole in the wall" place. It's only April and my husband and I have gone at least 4 times already this year. Highly suggest calling in to put in your order. The times we've come to pick up our order has only been one man. I don't know if he's the owner but he's been the only guy I've ever seen. Anyways, his sandwiches is like damn gold. I LOVE the Italian sub, my husband loves the roast beef, and the recent order of cheesesteak was...*chefs kiss*. It hit the spot for me and has bern done perfectly. The interior is simple and straight to the point. I love how small it is and it screams "get your sandwich, enjoy your sandwich, now get out" Lolol Seriously, this is prob the best sandwich shop we've found in short pump/henrico/inns brook. My in-laws came into town...we ordered 3 sandwiches and still had so much left over. I'll need to take pictures next time but seriously, this is a great sandwich stop you have to try!

Chris the manager, Cat and Kate who work behind the bar, wait staff, Sophie, Destiny and Luke, excel at their jobs and go out of their way to make customers like my my Steve and me feel welcomed and valued. The food is tasty. My Steve and I have tried the sandwiches and pizza. I prefer the Sliced chicken panini with mozzarella and the turkey while my enjoys the beef burger. The California Club is a mutual choice. We have both tried the Margarita pizza and I love the salads. We are both dessert lovers and our mutual favorite is the Nutella mousse. It's like eating mousse and chocolate covered cherries simultaneously. And my favorite brunch item is the French toast. The problem here is the kitchen staff. They consistently get our order wrong. We were there on Friday and we both ordered the California Club. My husband requested that the bread be un toasted. He had to send it back because you guessed it the bread was toasted. Then mine got sent back because I ordered no aioli and got aioli and the cook forgot to put the avocado on my sandwich. There has been at least one occasion where the breakfast sausage has been burned beyond recognition. I am giving five stars because with the exception of the sausage the food is delicious. When we finally got our orders prepared right on Friday everything was tasty. We also find the atmosphere calming. Eating outside is peaceful. I close my eyes and pretend my husband and I are at an cafe in Paris. The interior is large airy light filled space and tree branches are intertwined on wooden surfaces. The kitchen staff just need to pay closer attention to the way people order their food.
