    Come here every year for a coworker reunion and always enjoy the service. It is located in the lobby of the Westin Hotel. Ample seating in a laid back classy atmosphere. Seats are comfortable with a very classic breakfast menu. I got the Classic American breakfast with the savory maple bacon! My side was a fruit cup that tasted as if they had just picked the fruits from their respective trees. The whole wheat toast was a thick cut fulfilling portion. My wife got the Eggs Benedict that was decorated with fresh arugula with a hint of olive oil. Every item on their menu is a hit and the good thing is you can go up to your room and take a nap after this delicious meal.

    Small batch kitchen has great food. I ordered the chicken piccata and it was delicious. My brother got the turkey and cheese, but it wasn't his fave. The service was amazing! Our waitress was very kind. She gave suggestions and good vibes. In the restaurant the lighting was great. One of the only things that was on the downside was the menu wasn't the biggest. But for being in a hotel... it was pretty good. Next is the bathrooms, they were very clean and again the lighting was great. Overall for being in a hotel it was great. The food was good the service was good and everything else was nice. Especially the appetizers they were amazing! And everything was plated so well!

    Not to bad for a restaurant in a hotel. The food was honestly pretty good. Loved the cheesesteak egg rolls and tuna appetizer. The chicken piccata was banging and the crab cakes were amazing. The whole setup of the restaurant was nice and the bathrooms were really good. The waitress was very nice throughout the entire dinner.

    Okay we are back for breakfast. Sat down at 10:05am. It is now 10:50am. We ordered as soon as we sat down. I did not expect to wait this long. Yes I'm hungry. I just took one of those little jam packages, opened and ate it. Food finally came. Although they forgot spouse's side of bacon. I strongly discourage anyone going out of their way to eat here. My eggs Benedict was super salted. Too much so. And understand I am a person who will eat the salt right from the shaker. Clearly not a good place for me. Server never once came over to verify we were happy and had our food. Not until we sat waiting for 30 minutes. Spouse did tell front desk and manager will be told of the poor service.

    I had the pleasure of dining here for dinner on Saturday and breakfast on the following Sunday. Dinner was great - honey siracha wings with fries and the cheeseburger. Breakfast was OK, but it was missing something. Perhaps the seasonings ... But the service was pleasant on both dining experiences. I really enjoyed the bartender on Saturday night, Raymond. He was super helpful in helping us choose a meal. And his bartending skills were on point. The bar scene was nice. TV's all around the seating at the bar was spacious. The restaurant also features a lounge area, very nice! Other than us, persons were dining alone at the bar, but casually were interacting with each other. A few guests were in groups of 6+ enjoying themselves on the wrap around couches. It was just a nice vibe throughout the night. If you are in the area, this can be a great night for a couple or just to check out the scene. This restaurant is located inside of the Westin Richmond. Have fun and enjoy life :)

    Great restaurant inside the Westin. Very clean, neat and nicely decorated. Great service. Wine list sucked. But the chicken noodle soup and cheeseburgers were great.

    Greek yogurt and fresh cut fruit ($9) - I really liked the strawberries and blueberries. The granola was good. The Greek yogurt was disappointing - it was extremely chunky. I ended up not eating any of the Greek yogurt. For $9, I expected the quality to be a little higher.

    I don't take pleasure in giving 2 star reviews, but this place left me no choice. The service was pathetic, almost non-existent. Took forever for the coffee and food to come out, had to speak with multiple waiters/waitresses to get our food. Sure, they were definitely understaffed, but we waited for over an hour to get our food, which is unacceptable. I know that they say things are slower in the South, but this was next level. Had a person in our group physically get up and search for a staff member to find out what was going on. Once I received my food, it was fine. Had an egg white and spinach omelette along with a cup of fruit. Fruit was fresh and omelette was cooked correctly, but just can't get over how long it took. I got places to be. That's time I can't get back. Small Batch Local Kitchen - get your act together, you could do better!

    The most amazing wings ever!!

    A hidden gem amazing food, wonderful chef, friendly service!! Great for date night or dinner with friends, you will not be disappointed... the food is absolutely delicious . This is an affordable restaurant with professional Chef made dishes, the menu is well thought and you can tell the Chef has put his personal stamp on these dishes! They are adhering to all Covid-19 cleaning standards and safety guidelines. I was pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem and happy to support a local business

There were lots of questions about the menu that she didn't know, but she was so good about it and found out what we needed to know. The ambiance/decor is very nice and upscale looking. The menu is very limited. There were 4 entrees, and maybe 8 tapas/appetizers. We had the roasted cauliflower (good and comes with a chili like sauce), empanadas ( order comes with 3; they were very dry and served with a lime creama), garlic shrimp (order comes with 5; they were ok), Airline chicken with risotto (very good and flavorful. Risotto was cooked perfectly), burratta salad (lots of arugula, but so much burratta or anything else). For drinks we ordered passion fruit margaritas and lemon drops. Both were delicious! As of right now, I'm not a fan of the restaurant, but maybe as time goes on things will fall into place.

Her set started at 10pm. We were probably there from 10:30pm-1am. The bouncer was incredibly sweet and checked our IDs at the door. We walked up a flight of stairs to get to the lounge. From my understanding, this lounge is open on Fridays and Saturdays only so far. Tickets for the show we were going for were $7. We didn't pay at the door, they put the $7 ticket on our drink tab. It was pretty packed, but the three of us were able to find a seat. It took a while to order drinks, but it feels like they're still figuring the best system out. My friend and I ordered the hibiscus spritz which was incredible. It was such a huge and delicious serving. I highly recommend ordering this. Our other friend got a regular old fashioned that she enjoyed. Do know with the music, it gets a bit loud so you end up screaming at each other. It was really good music so it was totally fine. At some points people made the tiny elevated section where the DJ was a dance floor. While this isn't a dance spot, there is a tiny space to dance. There is lots of seating available here, so even though it was crowded, it was never shoulder to shoulder packed (unless you tried to dance). The decor is unique with exposed brick and hieroglyphics matching the Egyptian restaurant below. I'm excited to return to try more delicious cocktails from their menu and see other DJs.

I've been here several times and this time I decided to set a timer to see how long it would take the bartender to even acknowledge the people sitting at the bar. Let's just say we sat at the bar and stared in the bartenders faces for 15 minutes before anyone acknowledged we were there. This establishment would be okay if it didn't take 30-40 minutes to get a drink and order your food when you enter because the staff lacks customer service skill. It's like this at both of the bars in there. I gave them 2 stars because it's a decent venue but I wouldn't recommend.
