I've tried to give Maxey's in Powhatan every chance. I live nearby and genuinely like supporting…read morelocal small businesses, so I've gone back five or six times hoping it would improve. Unfortunately, every single visit has been disappointing, and today was the last straw. The food has consistently been bad, buns and bread falling apart, food either cold or burnt, and sloppy enough that it literally drips all over you. Today I waited nearly half an hour in what felt like a total circus inside the restaurant, only to be served one of the worst meals I've had anywhere. The fried chicken sandwich was burnt to a crisp, honestly something that should have gone straight in the trash instead of being served. The fries were colder than ice cubes, like they'd been sitting out forever. I've tried their regular menu and even gone on some of their special food nights that get hyped up locally, but it never lives up to the hype. No matter when I've gone, the experience ends up being the same: long waits, chaotic service, and food that just doesn't deliver. For what they charge, the quality is completely unacceptable. I kept giving this place another chance because it's local, but after five or six attempts, it's clear the same problems keep showing up with no sign of improvement. What makes it even more frustrating is that it feels like the owners want to buy up half the town and run multiple places, yet this one clearly isn't being run well at all. Maybe focus on doing one restaurant right before expanding. Because right now, the basics, food quality, consistency, and organization, simply aren't there. At this point you'll get a better meal and better value at McDonald's, which honestly says a lot. I was only able to manage to eat about half of what I ordered, and honestly I only ate that because I was absolutely starving and hadn't eaten anything all day. I really did try to support this place. I gave it chance after chance. But after today, I'm done. This was my last visit and it will be the last meal I ever have there.

We dined al fresco on the porch. Gorgeous! The food was good and the prices were most certainly…read moreaffordable, in fact very affordable. The menu offers a nice variety and they serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In the evenings they have music. So yes--they are pretty much "the scene" for Powhatan and given they are always busy this seems to be for very good reason. Our server was super awesome and gave us many recommendations for the area. I explained I was local and wanted to know about all the good stuff. She gave me the scoop on the Vintage Shack. THANK YOU! Really, the food here was good, staff are friendly and care about their business, and it's a great place to relax and enjoy a decent meal!

I went Saturday and had the breakfast buffet and unfortunately I was disappointed with the quality…read moreof the offerings. Normally this buffet is usually very good with ample fresh breakfast foods but this time that wasn't the case. The bacon was way over cooked almost to the point of being burnt. The breakfast potatoes had some type of spicy seasoning on them that made it very hard to eat. The sausage gravy was like water gravy. And the grits were not completely cooked. In fact they got so many complaints that they took it off the line. Overall not a good value for a breakfast buffet over $12.00. This was the second Saturday that I experienced this level of cooking. But to be fair I did hear that they had a new line cook with little experience. That said I'll give it another try but if It's the same again then I'm afraid that will be my last visit.

The burgers were good and the desserts were incredible, as they always are, but both came out relatively quickly and our server was friendly and helpful. At this point the prices are no worse, maybe even a little better, than burger and dessert spots elsewhere, and you get a lot more for that money. The best trip we've had there so far.

Heard a lot about this restaurant and had to try it out. Although they are known most for their…read moreburgers and their ice cream, I ended up getting a grilled chicken barbecue taco with a side of coleslaw and it was delicious! Great ambience. Very friendly service. Good prices. I went for lunch, so it was not very busy on a weekday, but I am willing to bet that it is the go to place on the weekends. Highly recommend!

I'm not often in Powhatan, so I was thrilled to try 1933 Public House for the first time last…read moreThursday night after work with a couple of coworker friends. We booked a reservation and that seemed like a good idea, as it was quite full inside. We were seated in a corner booth in their dining room, directly across from the expansive wrap-around bar area. I noticed a cute little fireplace in the dining room too. All around, the vibe was perfect for a chill dinner. I ordered the Abita root beer ($5) to drink, which is always a good choice. One of my friends ordered a Sangria, which looked lovely, and she said it was good. I'd consider ordering that in the future. For food, I started with a small ceasar salad ($5). I loved the dressing on it so much, I wish I could've bottled it up! I would return JUST for that dressing. One of my friends ordered it for her meal and added salmon, and she also liked it. Another friend ordered the spinach salad and *loved* it. I ordered the blackened mahi with pimento grits and brussel sprouts for my entree ($30), the brussels subbed for the broccoli that originally came with the dish. Everything on the dish was delightful, and my leftovers warmed up well the next day too. We each ordered a different chocolate dessert, including the chocolate peanut butter pie, the chocolate pot de creme, and (myself) the brownie sundae. We all enjoyed them quite a bit. Prices were super reasonable, especially considering how much food we ordered. Everything was clearly high quality also. Can't wait to try more of their menu in the future!

I got the Chopped Brisket Salad. When the food finally got there, the salad had no brisket on it. Had to get the waiter to go get it. Flavors were all good, at least the brisket was tender. Everyone else's plate at our table looked good. This comes down to the execution. Very poor. Anyway, some days you nail it and some days you don't.

There are plenty of seating, indoor and outside. Service was nice and attentive, and the food came out quickly. Their menu had a lot of different offerings from burgers, to pizza, to entrees. FOOD: ~Sticky Ribs (4.5/5): actually fall off the bone tender! The sauce was tasty. Only thing was the ends were a little too burnt, but it wasn't inedible - gave that nice char taste. ~Italian Grinder (5/5): Typical italian sandwich, but the bread was so good. The roasted peppers added a nice kick, and the sauce was yummy. ~Fries (5/5): love battered fries! And they were seasoned really well ~Catfish and grits (4/5): the grits were wonderful consistency. Catfish was fried really well and was extremely tender. The sauce was so flavorful, but it was very heavy. At first I was worried about the huge chunks of celery, but thankfully, it didn't have that strong celery flavor and added a nice crunch. A really solid meal, especially for a golf course restaurant!

Always a wonderful event when I get to go to Beauvine…read more Burgers are delicious, juicy, and filling, and not to mention the duck fat fries that inevitably end up on my plate! I've always had a pleasant time dining in, the staff has always been attentive to refill my drinks, and they always are willing to entertain a conversation with me, or entertain me with their conversation. Beauvine, in my opinion, is a staple of Richmond's food scene and is a MUST to anyone new or visiting the city and wants a fantastic, and reasonably priced, burger. With all that said, I think the name needs to change, Beauvine Burger isn't just a concept anymore, it's an entire thought.

If I remember correctly, their kitchen stays open until 2300 or 2330, which was nice. They have a lot of tables and chairs along bar seating. The bartenders that waited on us were polite, but it did take them forever to come back and check on me. I was going to order another drink, but because it took them quite a bit of time to get back to me, I ended up not forgoing the extra drink. I ordered a Bellytimber burger with a side of onion rings and a Beauvine's mule with raspberry flavor. My friend had ordered wings with a Modelo. My burger and onion rings were good, but my mule wasn't strong enough for me. It tasted quite watered down. The wings, my friend said, was alright. Overall, my experience was okay. I wouldn't mind coming back, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way.
