Super cute little business ! Went for the RVA Vegan Club tasting and had a blast ! The owner/staff working the register was super friendly and chatty. I personally preferred the balsamic side but a lot of the other people who attended got a lot of the oils !! I picked up the Pomegranate Balsamic for myself and can't wait to use it. Perfect little local business to support rather than a big company.

Glad Richmond finally has an olive oil and vinegar store like this! I usually order from Saratoga but being able to taste before you buy is a huge advantage so no buyer's remorse. Some of the flavors taste as you would expect, some are pleasantly surprising, and others... A few of the flavors in the oils could have been more potent for my taste, but others were phenomenal. I've been on a focaccia kick this year so I look forward to returning to experiment with new flavors.

I heard about Richmond Olive Oil through Yelp as an advertised event for Yelp Elites in Richmond. I was not able to attend. But I happened to be in the area a few weeks after the event. So I popped on in with my husband and two children. The moment we entered we were greeted instantly. The owner was amazing. He helped us and a few other customers out simultaneously. He took the time to educate us about oil and vinegars. While we were there I would say there is 20 plus oils and 20 plus vinegars to choose from. There are some gifting boxes already put together. Which makes for easy gift giving. Being inside just made me feel like I should start cooking more and fancy it up with well made products! HA. They are located in Carytown, sharing a parking lot with The Montana Gold Bread Company, another place you have to go to. It is the perfect combination. Their pricing is very reasonable for the products they offer. We opted for get two oils and two vinegars.

Love love love this shop!! The owners, Robert, is welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable! He has so many olive oils and balsamic flavors to try along with other goodies for sale (pasta, sauce, cookies, etc). He provided 3 size options for the oil & balsamic and it's very reasonably priced. Highly recommend coming by!

An addition- bring back your bottle to refill/reuse for a 10% discount! Super cool of a small business.

Pesto olive oil on the left, organic olive oil in the middle and savory butter on the right.

The owner Robert is amazing and so is his story as to why he took the journey of olive oil. He is super knowledgeable about the olive oil and balsamic vinegars he has. You are also able to sample each one. After I purchased my oils Robert informed me he takes a shot of oil daily and so we cracked open my bottle and he took a shot with me. Love it

Awesome sub sandwiches...!! Try your favorite two subs.... Choosing one is a bad move…read more.. Service is always friendly & top notch ..

Nick's is owned by several Nicks. Nick Nolte, Nic Cage, Nick Kruschev and Nick Elodeon. Mr. Elodeon…read moresays that kids love Nicks because of all the cartoons. I have no idea what that means, but they have good sandwiches. What to get: A Prosciutto sandwich with Fresh Mozzarella added, maybe What else: Expect an upcharge to add Fresh Mozz How to improve: Don't upcharge so much for Fresh Mozz (sigh) Nick's is a little run-down grocery store which sort-of feels like walking into a check-cashing shop or an urban convenience store that just happens to have a wonderful old-school NY-NJ style Italian deli inside. The deli itself is great, and makes a lot of awesome sandwiches for decent prices. As I said, I don't like the weird upcharges for certain ingredients, but so be it. It makes the prices of a sandwich soar from decent to ridiculous. The sandwiches aren't altogether authentic Italian NY-NJ style, but they are very good. I loved the parts of it that I had fresh, however when I had the rest of the sandwich a little later it had gotten extremely squidgy and soggy because they use a regular loaf of bread rather than anythng hard or Italian. Again, makes it less authentic but still very tasty. Despite these remarks, I haven't had a sandwich this good in the Richmond area before, so you should give it a try. And if it were Niche Produce, then they'd only sell unusual and hard to get hipster vegetables and sandwiches. Whereas if it wer Nix Produce, it would close down soon. And if it were Knickers Produce then I would have torn them down a lot more quickly and intensely than I did in this review.

I'd heard amazing things about Lost Letter for a while and I was so happy we got to visit recently…read more We went for a special occasion and it felt like the right vibes we were looking for. The menu is small but feels very curated. We started with the bread, fried olives, and squash escabeche. Even something as simple as the bread was so tasty. We each kept a piece to eat with our entrees. The flavors in the fried olives and squash dishes were awesome. For dinner, I got the gnudi and my husband got the cavatelli. We were both so happy with our choices. We made sure to have room for dessert and the caprese cake and gelato were incredible - not too heavy but super delicious. We were also impressed with the service - they were all very friendly, cleaned our tables and refreshed our silverware between courses, and refolded our napkins if we got up to go to the bathroom. It's definitely not a place we could come all the time but is wonderful for a special experience.

Overall, a pretty good dining experience, but definitely on the pricier side!…read more We started with the Bread & Oil and Salame Rosa. The Salame Rosa was probably my favorite thing of the night! I loved how the peppers and cheese paired with the salame, and everything complemented each other really well. The bread was pretty standard though, nothing too special, and I don't think I'd get it again for $8. For my main, I got the Cavatelli, which was really good! I especially liked the shrimp and how well it paired with the red sauce. My only complaint was that the pasta got cold pretty quickly, which was a little disappointing. I also tried the Frutto Proibito, which was a pretty interesting cocktail! The persimmon sorbet was a unique touch and added a nice sweetness to the drink. It was definitely on the stronger side though, so keep that in mind! Overall, the food was good, especially the Salame Rosa and Cavatelli. A little expensive for what you get, but I still enjoyed my dinner and wouldn't mind coming back to try other dishes!
