I had read all of the glowing media reviews of 1 N Belmont and had very high expectations. I did read the one negative review on Citysearch but frankly dismissed it as a patron disguntled because they had forgotten about his reservation. Unfortunately, his review was far more accurate than the media hype. The service was detached at best and condescending at worst. The food was mediocre; two of us had to return our dishes (the lobster) because they were completely unacceptable, rubbery with a strong metal taste. The appologies were half-hearted and, while the replacement dishes were acceptable (scallops), they were undistinguished in my opinion. We also noticed that two other diners returned their dishes as well. I can honestly say I have been to many restaurants throughout the world and have never witnessed four dishes being returned in one dinner sitting. The desserts were acceptable(chocolate mousse and the chocolate souffle) but the bill was presented before the coffee was served and the coffee service was very disorganized. In fact, the service was uneven throughout the evening. None of this is acceptable for a restaurant that commands these very high prices. There are many restaurants in the Richmond area that are far superior in food quality and service and are not nearly as high priced. I would not recommend this restaurant.
Pros: Charming decor
Cons: Indifferenct service, poor quality control, price

The 17th Street Surf shop is a great place to buy skateboarding accessories. The staff was courteous and knowledgeable, and the prices were great. Their skateboard bearings are priced similar to those found on EBay. Their clothing is more expensive than you will find in chain stores, but the quality is top of the line. If you have a skateboarding enthusiast in the family, a gift certificate from here would make the perfect gift.

This is a very large farmer’s market in downtown. We visit every Thursday for the Thursday Growers’ Market since it is very kid friendly then. You can buy local organic and regular produce and baked goods, even cheese, plus various other items. Parking is free, which is a rare find downtown. My boys love visiting because they offer activities just for them and they get to listen to live music.
