With all of the options available in the area, Akida's a nice find tucked away in a strip mall. Extensive menu with reasonable pricing. The sushi is hands down some of the best I've had in Virginia.
Pros: Fresh Sushi, Intimate Dining Area

We had the best time at Europa. They were able to seat our walk in party of 8 right away by moving some tables together and the hostess was extremely friendly. We ordered many items from the tapas menu and they came in "spurts" making it easy to share. Our server, Amanda, guided us through the menu and suggested ordering two of most of the items so there would be enough to share. My husband and I wished that some of the tapas were available as entrees! But then we wouldn't have gotten to taste as much. the sangria is also really good. I don't know why people are talking about parking-there is a garage across the street that offers free parking for dinner guests. I have worked around the corner from Europa for the past 8 months and the sign has been there. Also before we even moved here we went to a Rehearsal dinner there and parked in the same lot. And that was in 2006. Both of my experiences at Europa have been really good and I have recommended it to many co-workers. It is not for the person who likes to eat at cookie cutter or chain restaurants. You can't get a grilled chicken breast with (fill in topping here) there. Great for small parties or large groups who are in the mood for a festive atmosphere with character. Try the scallop tapas!
Pros: Ambience, free parking, food!
Cons: not a place to bring kids

Dragged my rear end up into this Hardee's on Sunday when I had probably been walkin up Midlothian for about 4 hours and my hair was started to get all burnt off from the sun. Waited in a line for twenty minutes and got real hongry dude. Had about 2 dollars so i went with the kiddie meal with this small cup of water. Tried to bum a couple more fries from the dude by the fry station but he tried to act like i wasnt there when i was clearly right there and i know he could hear me!!! He was scared and weak-looking, and pale. The place was nice and cool temperature-wise, and I called out to the manager to ask em what kind of A/C you got up in here. She said i looked nice and comfortable. Asked if she knew my brother in law who i know eats at a Hardees franchise, and she dealt with it. We talked about other topics, like when we talked about how much my feet were swollen which proves that she cares about the customer. Cant say much for the other staff, one of which picked up my food and threw it away right when i started eating it. So, didnt get to eat hardly nothin out of what i ordered. All in all, when it's said and done, my Hardee's experience didnt take very long. Boom, i was in and out. So, you heard Ron likes a little bit of the old in and out, Hardee's? Fantastic.
Pros: A/C
Cons: pricee

I enjoy a chain burger with the best of them, but Roy's is a good old fashioned burger joint that come with no expectations of anything but a burger...by that I mean, don't look for anyone waiting on you, don't look for a in dining experience, don't look for order and out...it's all a process. You would think this guy studied under GE's finest Six Sigma Black Belts...process driven; orders are taken, burgers are made and burgers are delivered...sure, there is a lean method to this, but for god's sake, it's a former drive in that's lasted throughout the past two decades....If you don't like a little bit of character, go back to Micky D's....otherwise, order a double, get some fries and park in on a bench in back....more importantly - on a sunny day.
Pros: Great Burgers - Old Style and any way;
Cons: Don't expect a country club setting - you might find a good ole donnybrook at this joint

By far, the BEST Mexican restaurant in Richmond. I've been going here (and only here) for Mexican cuisine for about 5 years or more now and I LOVE it. I introduced my husband to it right after we got married in 2005 and it is now his and my favorite Mexican restaurant. The food is delicious and plentiful and the pricing is just right. We visit one of their locations at least 3 or 4 times a month. The waiters are very friendly and always greet you with a smile and they bring the food to you hot, sizzling and ready to eat. The entire time I'm eating, I'm also dancing and humming to the music and I am smiling throughout the entire meal. We've tried other Mexican restaurants, but we always return to Mexico.
Pros: Smokers on one side and nonsmokers on the other, separated by either the bar or entrance.
Cons: Have none!

My husband and I are quite picky, and go out to eat each Saturday, and this past week was my week to choose. As we are fairly new to the area, the website to Tobacco Company seemed intriguing as well as teh menu, so I made a reservation. The hostess explained to me that they had one table that was actually IN an elevator, so I requested it. We arrived last night, and I was granted my request. The ambience of the whole place was GREAT. The elevator table was very intimate, as were many of the tables. I do not think there was a bad table in the house. Each floor was so different and had a fantastic vibe from the hand crafted architecture, so the different "offices." Our server- Graham was great. One down side, was they did not have still bottled water- only sparkling. The wine list was decent, and there was actually a cocktail waitress (as well as a cigar waitress like in decades past). The bread was sourdough, hot and wonderful. And we didn't have to ask 54 times for it, like many places we've been to. We didn't even have to ask. It arrived immediately- just how we like it! The caesar salad is prepared tableside, and when Graham overhead that I liked lots of garlic, he went away to get more. I am a Caesar SNOB and eat it EVERY week, and have yet to had an incredible caesar in richmond. This was the best caesar, not only in Richmond, but the best I've ever had. In my life. That says a LOT. My husband ordered the special and loved it, and I ordered my weekly steak, which was prepared perfect. The dessert selection was so-so, but my dessert (the du jour- a mixture of mik/white chocolate mousse) was actually very light and tasty. My husband hated his latte and thought it was watery, but other than the latte and lack of bottled water, this was one of the best experiences we have ever had here in Richmond. HIGHLY Recommended!!!!
Pros: bread, caesar, steak, service, ambience
Cons: no bottled still water, lattes

My first visit to Beauregard's was woefully last week. Why woefully? Because I waited so long to try it. The Red Curry sauce was fantastic - the chicken was a bit dry but the dish was very, very good overall. The homemade ice cream is wonderful! Light and creamy, delectable flavors. I will be back often.
Pros: Tasty dishes, great ambience
