I stayed at the Drury Plaza Hotel Richmond for two nights and unfortunately missed the evening kickback both nights, so The Kitchen + Bar ended up being a lifesaver for dinner.
After driving 9 hours the first night, Emily was working at the bar and immediately made the experience feel welcoming and relaxing. She recommended the chicken bacon ranch quesadilla, which was so good I ended up ordering it again the second night. She was incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive.
The second night, Nate was behind the bar and was just as wonderful. Even in the middle of a rush, he stayed kind, attentive, and on top of everything.
Between the two nights, I had margaritas, and my sister tried both the Bloody Mary and the amaretto sour. Every drink we had was excellent.
Great food, great drinks, and genuinely great service from both Emily and Nate. If you're staying at the hotel or nearby, I definitely recommend stopping in! read more
