No problem at all, @pumpkinIT! I am happy to help.
Richmond is craft beer rich. You shouldn’t have any trouble finding good beer. Richmond Beer Trail.
Of all the previous recommendations, I’d still say the following are worth a visit (some have closed, some are Italian and some we just haven’t been to in years) and a few more. I've noted which are only open for dinner (and maybe brunch on the weekends) and I've linked their websites to each of the restaurant names. You should check the websites for hours, closed days and to see if they have reservations available:
Kuba Kuba – Cuban, casual – open 9am-ish
Lemaire at the Jefferson Hotel – very special occasion place, upscale Southern US food – dinner only
Peter Chang –outstanding food – there are two locations in Richmond – one in the city and one suburban – some Seriously HOT food -
Acacia – read @Steve R.'s report on this thread dated 7/7/2017 - One of our favorites to take out of town guests to - dinner only
Nota Bene - dinner only
SB’s Lakeside Loveshack for breakfast—which they serve all day – or lunch
Whisk for dainty snacks and sweets
WPA Bakery – two locations
Proper Pie – sweet and savory pies
Pik Nik – dinner only on weekdays
Salt and Forge for breakfast or lunch
Shaved Duck – dinner only on weekdays
Metzger’s dinner only Mon-Sat, Sunday brunch
The Jasper for cocktails
Red Cap Patisserie for good baked goods
L’opposum – see @Steve R.'s report on this thread 3/26/2018 – just ate there in July and it still may be my favorite restaurant in Richmond – dinner only
Garnett’s Café - wonderful place and people, delicious sandwiches - One of my favorite lunch spots in Richmond
This is only a drop in the bucket. Richmond is full of really good restaurants. If you get another recommendation from someone here and want to check with me or just want more information, just PM me.
I hope you have a wonderful trip and will report back on your trip when you have the time.
