The crab soup was great! If I come back, it will be for that dish.

I came here for Sunday brunch with the family. We happened to be on the street while hunting Pokemon. (Lots of Pokestops near by, btw.). We had crab soup, breakfast sandwich (bacon, egg and Gouda), eggs Benedict, and crabcake s...

AMAZING food and the ambiance is warm and inviting.

I was actually visiting from out of town and just decided to make a reservation there, but had no idea it was in a fancy area of Richmond business district.

SO...Why 4 stars?

The waiter.

I had actually gone in there at 8 at night and th...

Headed over to Sam Miller's for a team lunch earlier this week and couldn't have had a better experience! Both the food and service were great and we will definitely be back. Highly recommend the crab dip and crab cake sandwich!

The food was phenomenal and the bartender/waitress(Andrea)was the most bubbly person I've ever met. NY strip and the rockfish is top of the line. Food took a little while to come, but it was well worth the wait. Places like this makes me miss Richmond and the quality restaurants it has hidden everyw...

This probably used to be a pretty decent restaurant, but the food really wasn't much to write home about. The best part of or meal was the burger and fries. Skip the world famous crab soup and ocean salad, the former was pastey, and the later felt like it had been on the shelf for at least a day or...

Just went for happy hour. They had a decent selection of local beers on draft and all the standards in bottles. They were out of a lot of the drafts, though. May have just been delivery day or something. The bartender/waitress was very nice and apologetic. Overall not a bad place to grab a drink....

Easily the worst food I ve had in RVA yet. Went here for Valentine s Day as we heard great things about this place especially in regards to their seafood. We spent upwards of $200 dollars for two 3 course meals that had little to no flavor. Very unpleased with the special menu for vday. Service an...

The hot appetizer sampler was pretty good for starters but it ended up being the best part of the meal. My husband got the fish tacos with fries and I ordered the teriyaki salmon with cucumber tomato salad in tzatziki and a side of sweet More

small portions

small portions
their main course lacked flavor, and the amount of fries you get is the bare minimum.
i had like 3 waiters, so i didn t know who to tip.
i sat for a while before i got my bill.

We went for lunch in a Saturday. Fairly empty restaurant. Nothing to hate about the place, but it s definitely not great. Crab soup is yummy. Oyster Po boy sandwich ($15 and quite small) is good. Fried calamari is average. Shaved sirloin sandwich ($15) - don t order it. It s a dried out roast beef s...

Food is good and priced at what you would expect for downtown Richmond. However, raw oysters on the half-shell are incredibly expensive. $2.50 per oyster, that means a dozen will set you back $30! I've been to many places that serve oysters by the dozen at less than half that price. This place i...

Was eager to try a Richmond landmark for Valentine's Day, but left disappointed. They had a set three course menu, but I was advised while making my reservations that you could order off the regular menu. Maybe it's the cocktail movement in Richmond, but I was disappointed that they did not have a...

Just no. On a trip, our group was given raw burgers and flat/watered down drinks. Along with many other events, staff was not friendly, reluctant to replace food such as said burgers, and got irritable when we asked for cooked burgers/when we talked to the owner.
