Started woth the loaded tots, typical bar/pub food but they knocked it out of the park. Then had the Biggy BBQ Mac Burger and lost my mind. This thing was so good, all the flavors from the pulled pork. BBQ sauce, patty, Mac n cheese bites, the bacon, fuse in your mouth then explode , freaking food orgasm in your mouth! Then had the Bourbon Maple Brown Butter cake to close it out and almost died. The bourbon cake is ridiculously good and intense, you WILL taste it. Overall, they deserve more than 3 stars, whoever rated less than 3 stars is insane.

The bacon and drizzle along with the dressing were fabulous! The smoked chicken wings were great. My friend asked Hannah for sauce suggestions and he wasn't disappointed!. The frito salad was good and a healthy portion for the half salad. They had a good craft beer selection but you have to scan a qr code. Thankfully Hannah was able to rattle many of them off. Would definitely recommend. They have 2 outdoor patios so you can bring your furkids. (We were on travel and tired of brewery food. This was great!!)

I've had pizza and wings here, and both have been pretty damn good. And the service is always super friendly.

Let's pack the house RVA. They have in house games as well.

I ordered fish and chips. It was overcooked, hard, and not hot. The slaw was so chunky that it was inedible.

I'm a major burger skeptic, and not a burger frequent as well. However, my perspective on what the…read moreperfect burger is has been determined to the fullest being here. The burger of my choosing tonight was called the Cobra Kai, which was the perfect sweet, savoury and spicy flavour profile in a burger comprising of American wagyu, cream cheese, fresh jalapeños, and a jalapeño jelly. The wagyu beef is extremely tender and juicy with no flaws whatsoever. I personally requested a double: best call to make! I don't live in the area, but I feel as though I would be willing to return just for the burger! Let's also not forget their crinkle cut fries that are PHENOMENAL in their signature Jack's sauce! The service was excellent as well! Plus, the vibe is expected of a burger bar, but I digress!

If…read moreyou're looking for a special occasion spot that truly delivers from start to finish, look no further -- this place is the real deal. The Valentine's Day menu was absolutely exceptional. Every dish was thoughtfully crafted, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. You could tell the kitchen was firing on all cylinders that night -- each course felt intentional and indulgent in the best possible way. The kind of meal that has you slowing down between bites just to appreciate it. Brickfire is the total package -- incredible food, an atmosphere that feels romantic and inviting, and an owner who genuinely cares about your experience. Whether it's a special occasion or just a Tuesday night, this is exactly the kind of restaurant Richmond needs more of. Sam, you've earned a customer for life. We'll be back soon.

Their menu is interesting, but I have to say I was disappointed to not find vegetarian options for their pizzas. There might have been one, but for a truly artistic place in such a liberal, artsy area, they should have had more options. Service was mixed - Our main server was forgetful and spacey... We would ask for things and he'd acknowledge and walk away only to come back a few minutes later and ask what we asked him for. Come on... Do better, management! As for the food - The pizzas really needed a slightly higher temperature and about 30 seconds more. The meatballs were cold inside and the sauce was luke warm. The Calabrian cauliflower was also on the cool side - very odd considering we saw char marks on them. Hmm... The flavor of the pizzas was nice though, but it would have been so much better if it was a little more charred and crusty. Overall - This was on my 'hit list' for visiting the downtown Richmond area, that's why I brought colleagues here for dinner, unfortunately it didn't deliver - far from it.

The food was hot and fresh when it came out, but the flavor was lacking for me. It was certainly nothing to write home about, and I didn't finish the sandwich because the turkey was just so dry and bland after a few bites. The drinks are very fairly priced, and the specialty cocktails are nice and creative. If I visit this spot again, it will definitely be for cheap drinks and maybe an appetizer rather than a sit-down meal.

I stopped by here to meet an old friend and had a good time. I arrived a few minutes before my friend and even managed to spark up a conversation with a couple of regulars without even trying. So this let me know that the regulars are pretty chill. Our bartender (a young blonde lady) was wonderful in all aspects of serving folks at the bar (and beyond). I thought the drinks (I pretty much stuck with gin sodas) were very reasonably priced. Since this was more of a drinking excursion, I did not have a chance to try any of the bites. But as one of the signs suggested, I will have to try the personal Greek pizza when I return.

We enjoy the burgers, and sandwiches. Steve and I love the turkey sandwich. The Molto Italiano is another favorite. Steve enjoys the meatball hero while I go for the Greek Salad. The ceasar salad is delicious too. The waiters and waitresses are exceptionally nice people. Ty, always asks how we are Rebecca and Becca listen when we have problems. Stephanie created a crafts project just for me. Julia makes everyone feel like they are the most special people in the world. It's good to feel like you belong when you are the new kids on the block.

Crafted is my neighbor, and I have visited 45 times over the years. If I turn to my right as I type…read morethis, I will quite literally see their lovely covered patio space. As such, it doesn't exactly feel great to be downgrading my review, but my previous sentiments aren't necessarily accurate anymore. My visits have dropped off in recent months, and it seems like the restaurant itself is dropping off, too, if you just read some of their latest reviews or stop in. I know they had a shift in their ownership, and it appears to be reflecting poorly on the restaurant. I'm not a big craft beer drinker anymore, but it turns out that doesn't matter, as Crafted is no longer a craft beer spot (see the picture I posted today for their offerings). I used to looooove traipsing over there to try their rotating draft list with some top-tier brands on it. This past weekend, I had a beer-loving friend in town from another state, so we stopped in on Thursday night. The bar area was pretty empty around 7 pm. I was embarrassed that I wasted his time, as they just serve domestics and the most basic of local pours these days. When I talked to the bartender about it, he seemed fairly nonchalant and informed me that Crafted can mean more than beer, such as craft food and craft cocktails. So let's talk about the craft cocktail I ordered. I selected the espresso martini. I love a good espresso martini. Crafted managed to serve me the worst one I genuinely think I've ever consumed. It was weirdly frigid, crunchy, and looked like it was curdling upon arrival. I don't know how they managed it, but I would highly recommend not ordering one of those. I've ordered quite a bit from their food menu over the years. I didn't order any food on our latest trip to see if it fits the "craft" label, but I've been within the past few months for dinner and it was just okay. Nothing extraordinary. I know they're impacted by inflation so I won't comment on the drastic price increases I've seen beyond saying they have been pretty steep jumps for decreasing quality. At this point in time, unless they have a major revamp, I don't see a reason to return. I'd rather spend my money on an experience I know is going to be better and my money will be appreciated, such as at my other neighbors, Acacia and Shagbark.

I highly recommend starting with the drinks -- the menu has a wide variety of creative options, but…read moreeven the well drinks were solid. Great bar all around. As for the food, the crab dip has more of a soup-like consistency, so if you're expecting something thick and hearty, it might not be for you. The chips and queso were pretty basic -- not bad, but nothing memorable. On my first visit, I ordered the beef and cheddar, but the beef was really dry, and I wouldn't recommend it. On a return visit, I got the club wrap with onion rings, and it was much better -- flavorful, fresh, and well put together. Service has been consistently attentive and welcoming, which always makes a difference. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.
