This is an amazing experience for anyone. You need reservations because they have a small seating capacity. This is good problem to have because it allows for that personal touch. Highly recommend.

Perly's was on my Richmond list and we picked up during a visit on a Friday. Around lunch so…read moreslightly busy-located downtown and street parking only didn't have any issues finding a spot right in front. We ordered sandwiches. House made Pastrami was delicious-go with the 1 lb (buy the pound) Pastrami sandwich -at least 2 if not 3 sandwiches in one. Corned Beef was also tasty and some of the best we've had. Latkas and Dill potato salad hit the spot but the Garlic Dill fries stole the show-one of a kind and not to be missed. For dessert, we saw they had Hamantaschen and got one of each-both very good with rich fruit spread topping. Service was engaged and patient (given our questions and recommendation requests) as our order was being placed. An extensive menu with everything from Beef tongue sandwich (Jewbano) to Chicken Liver as well Hot Dogs and Smoked Salmon and Whitefish. We wanted it all! Liked the atmosphere and decor with booth and bar stool seating. A must stop when visiting Richmond!

We went to Perly's last weekend. We were in Richmond for a wedding, and we had Saturday morning…read morefree. We walked over, and got there around noon. My daughter's friend, who is Jewish, had recommended it. We were told there was a 25 minute wait, and we were told we could hang out at the store next door. Just as we were done wandering, our table was called. I had the corned beef sandwich, toasted, and a side of potato salad. My wife had the chopped chicken liver appetizer and the potato latke appetizer. The food was very good and the service was friendly and efficient. I would definitely go again. They close at 3 pm and are NOT open for dinner.

The Fancy Biscuit is a uniquely southern brunch spot where fried chicken and eggs are all served on…read morebiscuits. The biscuits are crumbly, buttery and delicious. The prices were extremely reasonable. I got the ham, cheese and egg on a biscuit with an arugula side salad. For the price, the portions were absolutely huge! Service was fast and friendly. It wasn't too crowded on a Wednesday morning and we were seated immediately. The place is fairly small but the light decor makes it feel less cramped. It was a great place to sit and chat and eat before heading off to Kings Dominion.

We were in the area and I was thinking biscuits for brunch and then I saw this place. Everything on…read morethe menu sounds so good, like I would totally order everything on the menu if I had enough stomach space and money. We got there on a Sunday morning, the entrance was full but we were eventually helped and put of a 35 minute waiting list. We decided to go for a stroll and check out a couple blocks worth of sites and then got back in our car to decide just what we wanted. I was feeling fancy drink wise and got the mimosa flight and I wanted something simple for brunch so I got the eggs on a biscuit sandwich with open face ham. It was delicious. I wish GERD didn't exist, but it does so I had to limit how much more of the mimosa flight I could drink because acid reflux burns like hell. I also wanted to try the biscuit with gravy so I got a side of it. The biscuit was the most amazing biscuit I've ever tried, they were flaky, moist, doughy, and crumbly all at the same time. My husband got the sweet heat sandwich and it was fantastic. Perfect crunch, and the mix of flavors is perfect. He also got an espresso martini and it was hands down one of the best that I've tried. This would've been a 5 star review had it not been for our server. I didn't hear his name...in fact I could barely hear him. His face was disinterested and his voice was monotoned as if he were doing this as a punishment. He never checked in to see how we were doing, never gave us silverware (the other server who brought us our food got some for us), and another server had to flag him down for us so we could the check. Overall really great food but our waiter kind of ruined it. Wish I could've heard his name...or anything at all.

The people in the reviews are being extremely picky. Been here over 4 times now and haven't been…read morelet down yet and I intend to come in this morning again. Me and the girlfriend have a tried most of the menu, it's a quaint menu with actual fresh food (thank god for no microwaves). Inside of the building is small, but simple, nothing overwhelming or underwhelming. Staff are great too, a bunch of young bucks making the place stand tall is good stuff. I don't consider myself a 'regular' to any place; this spot has my loyalty in that department. Keep up the work!

Indoor is bright with natural lighting along with patio seating for outdoor lovers. All bread made in house which gives Janet's that added touch. My favorites are the sourdough cinnamon roll, hand pockets, biyani, and croissant. Nice rotation of deserts, so the experience is different with each visit. I recently tried one of their sandwiches for the first time - The Shirley, which was pleasant - flavorful, light, and summer friendly only to learn that Shirley got the boot with the creation of their new menu! Parking can be challenging during peak hours but it's worth the wait. #bringbackshirley

In my estimation, there is no better bakery in RVA right now. I'll only write of what I've tried…read more From the perfect baguettes who's peaks are worthy of ride-back-home consumption, to their beautiful hand pies with perfect filling, to their buttery and flaky chocolate croissants, this place is worth the long lines one typically encounters. They make a beautiful sourdough country loaf that is fantastic to bring home, slice in 1/2" slices with a sharp bread knife, put in a gallon freezer bag, and freeze for amazing sandwiches and treats during the week. Try a Spanish pan con tomate with one of these slices slightly toasted, with a rub of garlic, salt, and good e.v. olive oil, and you'll be happy as a clam. (What does that even mean?) Or use said previously frozen slices as a dessert treat with your sleepy time tea, toasted with butter and good local raw honey drizzled on it. Bathrooms are very clean. Next up, I will go early to sit down and eat there, trying one of the incredible looking breakfast sandwiches and/or salads that folks seem elated to be eating.

We had a great meal here! The Garden Sampler Board was a fun twist on a traditional charcuterie…read moreboard, and we really enjoyed getting to try a variety of everything. Our entrees were equally as tasty. I ordered the salmon and it was done well! My only personal preference would be to swap the green beans for the collards next time--the green beans just weren't cooked quite the way I prefer. That said, everything else was really enjoyable. Overall, a great meal at an equally great price. We were pleasantly surprised to walk out for under $65 without ordering drinks. Definitely felt like a great value, and we'd happily come back!

We ended up at Lunch Supper for brunch and I can see why people like it. The space is nice and…read moreclean, they have a great outdoor area, service was good and timely, and everything came out pretty fresh and hot. Food-wise, I'm a little torn. I got the Shorti Bowl, which is eggs and meat over cheese grits. It was good but I just wanted the cheese grits to commit a little harder to the cheese. The meat itself was good too, although it did feel a bit like a piece of meat had been plopped in the middle rather than everything really coming together as a dish. My husband got the sandwich with basically the same kind of meat, and somehow it was both a LOT of sandwich and not a lot of sandwich at the same time. It looked impressive as a Katz's-esque pile of meat, but once you actually got into it, it was mostly meat, bread and pickles. I kept expecting some sauce or another topping to show up and it just...didn't. Also a little unwieldy to eat, although I guess that's part of the territory when your sandwich is 70% meat. I think Lunch Supper sits in a funny middle ground between classic diner/brunch food and a more modern version of it. Nothing we had was bad, but for some of their more popular dishes I guess I expected a little more oomph if that makes sense (and yes I tried adding hot sauce). I'd still happily come back with friends, especially to sit outside. I just think I'd be coming back more for the vibes vs the food.

It turns out we had been here before, and I'd completely forgotten the experience until we arrived…read morelast Thursday around 7 or 8 o'clock. The parking lot is small, and there is a pothole in the alley near the parking lot entrance that will bottom out an SUV. Apparently, there is additional parking, but we didn't see it in the dark. The restaurant is cozy, Hawaiian-themed, and clean. We were seated within moments of entering the host's periphery, and received menus and ice water within minutes. I had the poke bowl last time, and I remember it being chilled and gently flavored. The avocado and spicy mayo did a lot of the heavy lifting. It was filling and very healthy. My partner enjoyed the Ipanema Sandwich last time we visited. This time around we snacked on the fried halloumi (fried cheese and mint yogurt dip) and Lumpia, taquito-type beef rolls, with sweet and sour dip. We absolutely demolished the coconut cream pie for dessert. The pie was so delicate and lovely that even my partner enjoyed it, a typical coconut detractor. I recommend Little Nickel to anyone looking to try something unique and ambitious that veers from the well-trodden culinary path. The staff here were courteous and helpful, the restaurant was clean, and the food was firing on all cylinders.

My husband and I dined here after church on Sunday. We had a very good experience. The staff was…read morevery attentive. There was a young man who was the host who sat us immediately. Several servers came over right away to ask our drink orders and give us menus. My husband ordered the country fried steak with gravy and eggs, and I got the chicken and waffles and a side of grits. Everything was very tasty. This might seem like a small thing, but the iced tea was fresh brewed and very good. I cannot stand iced tea that comes out of a machine or that is powdered. This was clearly fresh and they served it in big mason jars. This is one of my key things with a restaurant. If they don't have freshly brewed tea, I really don't enjoy my meal as much. I was thankful that this place had great tea. The server checked on us throughout the meal. We would definitely go back again.

A hidden gem near Hull St and Courthouse that was highly recommended from some of my local foodies…read moreand I am so glad I was able to make the trip! The hours online are not accurate (give them a call) so we technically got there when they were preparing to close for the day but the super sweet waitress went to check if they could still accommodate our to go order and they did! So I got two (one for my mama) liver and onion meals (5/5 very tender) both with mashed potatoes (2.9/5, gave box) one with cabbage (4/5) and the other with green beans (3.9/5). Mimi ordered the fried pork chop (4.5/5, thin cut but seasoned and fried well)meal with mashed potatoes (2.9/5) and collard greens (a bit dry...leave the "pot liquor" thats where the flavor resides, lol). The family vibes all through out the venue made us feel welcomed and the love shown to the staff by the patrons sealed the deal! If you want a good home cooked meal head over #southerntastediner!
