This was our first time here and we'll definitely be back. The food and the service were both great. We had the catfish and shrimp po boy, one jerk chicken egg roll, a side of fries, and a couple of cocktails. One suggestion I would make is that for the price they charge for the jerk chicken egg roll, you should receive 2. However, the dipping sauce for it was spicy and delicious. The po boy had large portions of fish and shrimp! We couldn't even get our sandwiches closed! 😆 The fries had the right amount of flavor and crunch. I can't wait to return so we can try more of the dailymenu ✌🏾
My waiter Nelly provided great service all while handling a few groups that walked in. He did not miss a beat on taking my order and providing suggestions after learning I was pescatarian. I ordered the catfish, shrimp & grits & a crab & shrimp cake. Everything came out hot & fresh and was very delicious. I also had the Daily Espresso, which was definitely a winner. Keep up the great job!
I'm not one to complain, but to pay 15 dollars for a burger 12 dollars for a chicken sandwich not to mention it was nothing special about these sandwiches is bazaar, at least include the fries with the sandwiches. Then to order a soda that is 3 dollars to only be flat asked for a different drink only for that one to be flat as well. Then asked for a 2 go cup only to be given a med cup what is that? I'm sorry but this was the worst 100 dollars I've ever spent eating out for basic food that is overly priced with nothing included. And 8 dollars for one egg roll is outrageous. Other then that our waitress was good and very understanding.
I would like to start by saying that I have only ordered from this place once before this experience. The first time was wonderful. The food was delicious and even though it was to go, the server was wonderful. This is the reason why I had hyped them up to my coworkers. So, my lunch is very early in the day and this location stated that they opened at 11 am. So it was perfect for what I needed and wanted for lunch. It started off a little off because I ordered directly from the link on their website and it said that I would get $5 off for my birthday this month, however, it didn't. I didn't make a big deal of it because I felt as though this was an easy fix. Little did I know that this was going to be the least of my problems. So, I placed an order Friday morning, via their website, and it gave me the option for it to be picked up at 11:00 am. I thought this was great, I figured they must be in their early getting everything ready so that when they open they could hit the ground running. I had paid over $51 and I left my job to pick up what I thought was going to be my coworker and my lunch. Before arriving, I tried to call them, but no answer. I did this a couple of times before getting there. Much to my surprise when I arrived the doors were locked and not a soul was in the building. I called them at least 9 times after that, left two messages, and emailed them and heard nothing. Then a little before 12:35 pm finally got someone on the phone. He stated that my food had “been there waiting for me to pick it up”. I informed him that I got a text at 12:06 saying that my order was almost ready, which was an hour after it was due. I asked him if he was a manager and he said no and that no one was there yet in management. He stated that he was going to try to contact the manager. However, instead of a manager, I was met by a young woman who was rude and called herself trying to help me out despite their business not operating properly. She said that the cooks came in at 11:15 am, claimed that I couldn’t have placed my order through their website, and told me that I was being unreasonable for asking for my money in cash despite their business fact that this situation happened because of them, not me. This was absolutely horrible!!! If I could give a negative number for this review I would. This interaction had not one ounce of positive customer service experience to be found. She told me that the manager would give me a call but didn’t. Typical! Reply: First of all I haven’t been there 5 times this was my second visit. Second, if you had people who had any decent type of customer service experience or even if you would have emailed me or called me back, because I did leave my phone number, I wouldn’t have put you on blast. I understand mistakes happen, but what baffles me is that you are making it seem as though it is my fault. WOW! Yes, I did ask for my money back in cash, because it was taken out immediately so I wanted back in immediately. However, this was way after your staff member was completely rude to me and accusing me of lying about when the order was placed. At the end of the day, this situation was handled horribly and has continued to be handled horribly. Your ordering system should be updated so that no one can place an order that early if it can’t be ready at that time. Unfortunately, you have lost what could have been a “loyal” customer because I love to see people succeed and do great and the first and only time I have been there was a great experience. However, I’m not going to be treated as though it was my fault to order what I wanted at a time it said it would be ready. Please do better and stop gaslighting. Thank you.
Came in here on a whim. The staff was so welcoming and chef ron introduced himself and made me incredible wings. If youre looking for a relaxed environment with great food and service and a kitchen open late this is the place for you.
PERFECT spot for the vibe. Amazing aesthetics, real, hip hop, RnB, Soul, Dirty 🍸🍸, Great Hookah, meaningful, purposeful ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.... The Owner is Intentful and Passionate about the food ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. The knowledge and realness of the Team compliments the vibe ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Did we mention that it's a vibe!)🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹, a 🫡🪖! Recommendation: Get there Ask Hollywood the bartender🍾to make you a 🔵 Blue 🍒 Cherry 💣 Bomb -MHT-
Nice spot. I took my God-daughter to brunch there. The food was pretty good and the service was friendly. Watch your step entering... slight trip hazard.
First time here and omg. Sooo goooodddd!!! The jerk egg roll is fire!The sauce for the egg rolls was so delish!!!!🤩🥰 I had a turkey burger and you can TASTE the turkey meat. It was season well. I will be back for that bologna burger. Now this was a food orgasm 😚😋☺️🤫 Nov.18,2023 EDIT: we use uberEats and none of our food combos came. My dad got his but it was cold. Everything, including the turkey wings were cold. We order the VA CRISPY wings. SALTY AF!! I have to give it to my little brother but my combos....I only got one....ONE! The eggs rolls were cold. One was jerk and the other seafood...they wasn't cooked on the inside. We ordered out so I didn't have to cook....yall ruined that for my family. We won't order again. The very first time I went there was awesomeness! But now...a bad experience will keep me from ordering EVER again... Wish yall luck...
We are from out of town and this was a great discovery.
SEAFOOD BURGER CRAB,SHRIMP & SALMON PATTY/COLESLAW/HOUSEMADE BANG SAUCE Absolutely Delicious Food : 5/5 |
I caught the cook outside and had a conversation and felt at home and the food was amazing. Really the best food I had. Chef Ron made sure my food was amazing! Thanks to him I will be coming back
We visited this place 10/19/24 Apparently, the waiter we had just started a hour before we got there. Reason being he couldn t answer any menu questions. Had trouble putting in our order. Had more trouble cashing us out and couldn t give us a receipt. Looking at the menu the food and its description sounded good but once it reached our table it was highly overrated. The waffles were more of a dessert than a breakfast item which we had to request for syrup and the DEVIL CRABS CAKES that I received were being passed off for the CRAB CAKES that I ordered. And I know the difference. Either the for is over priced or we were over charged for 2waffles side of bacon and some DEVIL CRAB CAKES (Not Crab Cakes) with eggs. $76 That was just our experience and not a good 1st impression.
Waffles were the best I ever had
ordered steak and cheese eggroll and option was to pick 2 side I chose chefs choice when I got the order no sides.I guess the chefs choice was no choice . So it was 15.00 for one steak and cheese eggroll basically. Very disappointed and first time ordering from there. I don t guess my door dasher took the sides
We got the catfish and grits and the big American for brunch and were blown away how good it was, our server Hollywood was extremely friendly
Great small cozy place good food good vibes awesome bartenders
Unfortunate that this black owned establishment may not last long due to the service. The server/hostess was absolutely horrendous. I was better off serving myself, quite frankly. After sitting, we were provided with a glass of water. The remaining service was initiated by our constant requests (i.e. to place an order, butter, syrup, a box, a check). We literally had to make piecemeal requests. She was only interested in her friends that came to work and her cellphone and she was not a young woman, by far. The food was good and that was the saving grace. The gratuity was built in (which there was no signage) so I m sure that aided in her caring less about actually serving. Note: The flavored waffles are toppings, not a flavored waffle as you would assume.
Amazing food, good vibes, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Thank you for the hospitality. Hollywood took care of us and also the cook made sure our food was 10/10. I would 100% return.
Living across from this place is a nightmare. Setting off fireworks (on non holidays as well as non holidays) all hours of the night. Allowing customers to stay in the bar til 5am and then argue outside for 20mins. Will never step foot in there for those reasons alone!
The food here is great and the bartenders will keep you coming back for the drinks and the music
The food is always flavorful and delicious. I wish they bring back the crab only cakes but other than that! This will forever be the BEST FOOD IN RICHMOND!
Food was good. Hookah experience was suspect. I was told I couldnt get new coals that I would have to buy another refill in order to get new coals. I have been to several hookah spots and this is not a normal hookah practice. Then I see that the table next to me get new coals without having to purchase anything extra. Bad business practice. Do better! Lost a customer.
Very unprofessional.
Love this place. My brother and I were driving from Florida to PA when we decided to get off the highway and get a real hamburger rather than one from a fast food place. We found this restaurant. They were on the brunch menu (so, no hamburgers) but the owner cooked them for us anyway. Such kindness. The service was great. The people were great. The hamburgers were great. But the real shining star were the fries. They have some special seasoning they put on them. I was almost ready to move to Richmond just to be closer to those potatoes.
Honestly it was the first time i tried it And to be honest the Mac & Chesse was cold My husband food came out before mine weird if two people are eating dinner together The chicken descent size but the bun was bigger bigger but the taste of the chicken got me due to the fact you can taste the breading & a little tough if you don t like loud music it s not your scene
Got chicken tenders and wings, both were undercooked. Great service and music though!
Egg rolls were amazing! We tried the surf n turf, cheesesteak, and the jerk chicken. Turkey wings Mac and cheese, and collard greens AMAZING!
Expected a crispy chicken sandwich with crunch and lots of flavor, well that s not what I got, I was deeply disappointed so saddened I could not finish the sandwich just ate the fries. Although the fries were crunchy and tasty, the sandwich was the complete opposite! it lacked crunch and flavor it was basically a Tyson s chicken breast slapped on a bun with lots mayo.
Hollywood was a great server! Gave some good food options. Listen to him!
Loved everything about this restaurant. Good food, drinks and music. We had a really good server as well. I went for brunch and can t wait to try dinner.
Food here is delicious seafood egg roll and salmon and spinach egg roll are both excellent appetizers. The catfish burger was too! The host was also the bartender name Hollywood, he makes the best Don Julio Sunrise
I went in Christmas Eve on the way to visit my son the place was empty Im sure due to the day it was but it was kinda chill layed back ordered eggs and bacon only to find out it was turkey bacon but other than that it was ok will have to go back so I can really check it out
The food here is always hot, fresh and DELICIOUS! The vibe and music are amazing. Its my favorite brunch spot in RVA!
The Food and waitstaff was EXCELLENT!! Definitely a WIN! I will be back !
Parking: It shouldnt be that hard. But it can be. Food
Enjoyed slipping into this warm yet chill restaurant and smoke lounge. Definitely appreciate the option to sit on the smoking side (for cigars & hookah) or non smoking side. Be sure to get there early though because they can fill up quick!
Great Service, Great Music, Great Food. I have tried the wings and fries and the chicken sandwich both Egan and non vegan. Nice and Moist and flavorful.
Really enjoyed the food, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely will be back.
Overcharged me then had the nerve to be mad because I requested my money back. The MANAGER threw my money on the table...
This is a great spot! The waitstaff are so friendly. And the food is absolutely delicious! Especially the waffle. So light & fluffy. This place is a true hidden gem!
All of my food was delicious! I had the jerk eggroll (amazing), the seafood eggroll (pretty good), and the seafood omelette (also very good!). Everything was fresh, piping hot, and got to the table quickly.
Me&my niece went there for dinner&every thing was fantastic.
Great place can t wait to go back. Staff was incredible. And the loaded steak fry. to die for.
Exotic food selection. Always full of flavor and cooked to perfection. Would like to try the cigar bar next visit!
Was expensive to be eating cold French fries out of a styrofoam to-go container. The music was good but that was the only good part.
Nice service Howe the food was bland. Tried the Seafood burger ..the boom sauce was the main flavor component.. overall nice filler for a quick fix but not somewhere Id recommend for quality
Never went yet but the pictures are amazing
1st and last time here. Waited with 3 of my friends for 40 in minutes to get a cup of water that we had to ask for, a then that was placed in a stirafoam cup. Then 10 minutes later it was time to place order because she came back to the table after helping another person his order who came in 30 minutes after us. Well I ordered a drink with pineapple juice along with my friend with coconut rum and she brings us Oj and and not tell us, I go to the bar asking if I could use the bathroom because I got sick as a dog I dont do Oj or nothing with it. After that I told her that if a customer ask you for something she she do just that she said well we dont have any more pineapple juice so I said then let your customers know before you kill someone she say Im sorry.i said nothing until she said Im going to take it off the bill. Well I know that. To the owner training is everything that goes for the kitchen staff get what on the menu. I could go on but we are about to go. I hope that you are here and get better that could be why there is only 8 people here. On Friday night. And its 4 of us.
The food was great! Sunny was a fantastic waitress, and the location was extremely convenient.
I visited Daily Menu enticed by the happy hour menu I saw online, but the experience left much to be desired. The waitress appeared uninformed about the menu, and disappointingly, several liquors from the advertised happy hour menu were unavailable. They were also unable to substitute any of them. On a positive note, the restaurants ambiance was inviting and comfortable, but the inconsistency between the online menu and the actual offerings was a letdown. In summary, the restaurant does have potential, but they need to improve staff knowledge and maintain menu consistency to provide a more satisfying dining experience. I would rate it 3 out of 5 stars.
When I first walked in the atmosphere was not friendly at all. The servers affect was flat not friendly at all no smile no warm welcome nothing. We are in the south where we are none for our hospitality. And being a black own business is very disappointing. My daughter ordered a drink and was charged 75 cents for a pineapple she never got. My first Margarita did not have a drop of liquor in it. That was $10.00 than ordered another drink asked for Don Julio and they ran out what bar runs out of liquor. So I got the Patron Silver charged me $12.00 for the Patron Silver, Margarita Mix $7.00 and $7.00 for the Patron that was already in the drink. So one drink cost me $26.00. Food was alright but all I got was what they called loaded fries with steak and shrimp and some red peppers and cheese, no sour cream and wasnt even offered any. Train your staff on customer service. I hope things will get better.
came here for brunch with my daughter and she didn t like nor eat her food. the manager offered tenders as a REPLACEMENT but for some reason i was still charged for the old food that she didn t even eat. she offered to discount the old meal which took $10 off the $20 meal. if you decide to eat here you d BETTER like/eat your food bc you WILL have to pay for it regardless! also the drinks were served in little plastic picnic cups which i thought was very tacky esp for brunch. do better guys!
The Daily Menu LLC is my go to brunch spot downtown! The food is always perfect and service is always good. 10/1/2023: The chef has changed to the owner but he still does an amazing job as well!
I am so disappointed in this place. I waited a total of an hour and a 1/2 for my order. And this is what I received eighteen dollars for a half a piece of catfish
First time being here, loved the food. Great customer service.
They have an amazing catfish and shrimp grits
Service definitely has declined when first opened they were good now the food is salty and not worth it at I m definitely disappointed it s definitely a vibe there but the food is nasty
Sunday Brunch. I drove from NY for the day. Spent $125 for bttmless mimosas, bad hookah and shots. The liquor must have been watered down, we came from a previous bottomless mimosas and didn t feel any different after we left we here . When I asked for 2 shots of Grand Marnier, it looked like a light liquor. I was overly excited to be with my fam to notice( and not accept the b.s.) how they poured a portion of each ingredient because you made it yourself. Slow moment y all got it. My issue. The hookah was suppose to be busting and it was lacking. I don t indulge in hookah but my lil cousins do. The DJ IS FIRE, GET THEM BACK IN HERE ERRRRDAY.
Good drinks, food and music
The food was sooooo damn good!! Shrimp catfish and grits were so bombbb And the crab shrimp cakes! The bar is hitting too for real. Can be quite loud even though we went in the afternoon. Will definitely go back again though!
I love this place its so nice great people there the service was excellent the food was very good as well
Awful, loud, slow service. We sat for 20 minutes with no menu and no water - even when asked several times - while every other table that was predominantly African American were served immediately upon sitting down after us.
What a pleasant surprise!! WOW. Im not doing 5 stars because the DJ was amazing but way too loud for such a small place. I had the salmon nuggets with the Mac and cheese which is my new obcession. It was so delicious. Service was also good so I will be question be back to try other things on the menu (Once I get tired of the salmon nuggets)
Spinach egg white mushroom omelet, sweet potato waffle and BYOM! Everything was delicious. Great atmosphere and service. Me Vegetarian options: Options available
Love it here!!!!! Dk showed us the best time. They had $25 hookahs. $3 shots. Wings was fireeee. They gave us free wings for samples. 10/10 would recommend. Atmosphere is amazing. Definitely coming back.
Great vibe! Great people! Great music!
A little disappointed being that I walked 10 mins in the heat only for them not to be open when their hours say they close at 9 .it was 4 when I went. No be back soon sign , nothing. Why even have hours posted if your not going to be open when you re supposed to be. I ll try again tomorrow and hopefully someone will be there
Great spot. Food is on point, if you dont like loud music THIS IS NOT THE PLACE. I ordered take out the next time i went. But the servers are cool. They may need to hire a little more people though because i had a long wait just for something to drink. But the great service definitely made up for that
This is by far the best restaurant in Richmond downtown region. First of its vibe is tremendously inviting. It is the epitome of quintessential black excellence. From the server. Food. Ambiance. Music. (A little loud but to be honest the selection made it perfect to tolerate) everything was done to perfection. The place is truly a underrated, genuine great find. If you desire mouth watering food choices. Its a must dine in. It was so good. We requested to speak to the owner. The owner took his time to chat with my friend and I. We just wanted to thank him for making us feel at home. And that his food was amazing. Its a selection of purpose creation with a dash of unexpected creativity. Order the jerk chicken egg rolls and you will see why. Thank you for having such a great establishment
Nice staff and ambience
Absolutely scrummy! I came with my granddaughter for brunch and we were very pleased. ALL of the food was impeccable from the waffle to the crab cake down to the potatoes. The music was pleasant, decorations were on point, and the service was grand. Overall we loved everything about our experience here and recommend this establishment to everyone looking for scrummy food.
It took about 20-45 min for the food to come but in the end it was worth it or we was just hungry
Everything was delicious.
So I never leave a review . But boy was I surprised I got 1 regular hookah . And one drink Jameson and ginger ale regular not a double . Total was 69$ not a bad place but SEVERELY OVERPRICED IMO .
took 30 minutes to get a chicken sandwich which cost me 20$. food was disgusting, overcooked, and covered with way too much mayo. fries were mediocre but not good and then i threw up after because it was so nasty. do not go here!
Food was terrible. Grits were dry and under cooked. Took forever just to get catfish. My friend ordered a waffle with catfish on top and the catfish didnt come until almost an hour.
My Husband and I went downtown to look at the lights. We decided to look for a random bar afterwards. Came across a few but the music was bumping so we picked dailymenu. Nice atmosphere, clean, food came quickly and hot, my fish n fries were delicious + my pineapple Malibu was great! Our waitress was fast, courteous, and nice. Well definitely be back!
Awesome
The Food was Gooood Hoooot nice clean and Respectful Environment I will continue Visiting this restaurant Going forward
Food Is Amazing!
As Head Cook & Kitchen Manager I Take Pride In The Quality Of Food & Service And Also The Ability To Be Creative And Allow Customers To Experience Something Different... We At Daily Menu Are Like Family And That Bond Gives Customers A Feeling Of Home But Also A Great Atmosphere For Everyone...
Great atmosphere and chill spot to hang out grab sum food and drinks!!
Tasty soul food in the bottom. Super friendly staff. Their strawberry cake is insanely delicious
Love this place the food was great the service was great the young lady Jamillah gave great service will be visiting that place again its so much food on your plate and you can barely eat it and OMG the grits was so delicious
As always absolute Love. Best brunch in the 804!
Everything about this place is a YES!! Our waitress was so sweet and funny, and the service was super efficient. The atmosphere of the restaurant itself is super chill as well. We visited for brunch, and everything was delicious! We got the jerk chicken and waffles, the breakfast bowl, and the daily menu mimosa. I dont think ive ever had eggs as delicious as these ones. I cant wait to come back for their regular menu!
Great restaurant. I had the Kuntrystyle platter and it was delicious. Great service!
Everything about the place is Greaaat
Great atmosphere, great music, and the best Jerk Chicken egg rolls youll ever eat!
You must try the-turkey wings and they were outstanding looking forward to returning and having great food and maybe smoke a good cigar keep doing what you re doing.yes 5 plus stars best wings ever.
Food is great and the drinks are even better!
Seafood omelette was delicious! Cajun sausage gravy tasty. Loved the vibe! Small and gleamed with ethnicity!
Cigar Lounge
Seems to turn into a hookah bar, at least on Friday nights. It wasnt what we were expecting and we ended up not eating there but the staff was super nice and I would definitely come back at another time.
Came in for take out when doing the brunch menu, and ordered ONE chicken n waffles which is overpriced.... was not a full building nor did they seem busy,, waited 45 mins for for the food to be soggy once received. If I could leave no stars I would.
The food was really good. I got the sweet chili wings and crab fries . The service was great our server was sweet. The drinks are on point as well. Loved the atmosphere and music. I will definitely be coming back.
The food isnt that great but the atmosphere is! Drinks are good.
Great service and great food! Waitresses were very attentive and made sure we had everything we wanted. We had fried whiting and the salmon cakes with a delicious home made banana cake. This was our second visit.
My family and I stopped in for lunch and we re highly satisfied! Great atmosphere with great tasting food!
OH MY GAWD!! The food here is absolutely amazing. Came here last night for date night and ordered the crab fries, seafood egg roll, and fish and shrimp combo. Soooo good!! I remember ordering takeout from here about a year ago, and I can say that the food has gotten even more delicious over the past year. The atmosphere during dine-in was a whole vibe. Will definitely be returning.
I love this place . Food, drinks, and music is always a vibe
The egg rolls are delicious.
Good food, good drinks, good vibes, and good customer service!
Had a great brunch experience! The mimosa was delicious and my waffle and eggs were phenomenal! Everything came out fast too. Would definitely recommend!
17$ for 6 wings without even any ranch or celery. What a let down.
After leaving Lulus receiving poor service from the manager Makayla K. I walked around the street to Daily menu and when I tell the service was on point and the freakin food was absolutely DELICIOUS....I heart and belly is happy
great service good music good food Sunday night was a whole vibe looking forward to next Sunday
Excellent food! Sweet potatoes pancakes, spinach mushroom omelette.
Came here for brunch with friends and while the food was great (I had the catfish, shrimp, and grits), the service was severely lacking. Our waitperson was inattentive and slightly rude the whole time we were there. Everyone has bad days right? It happens! We were ready to chock it up to a bad day until we saw them interacting with a friend at the bar. Suddenly they had all the energy in the world for the friend, but none for our table of 6+? It was so so weird and after a while not only did we feel uncomfortable, but we all were ready to leave. Its disappointing because we did get to meet (who we assumed was) the cook and she was very nice! But the rest of the experience soured my first (and definitely last) time going there. Im sure Ill come across a great brunch spot somewhere else!
The vibe was great. The photos of the food look like its gonna smack, but it wasnt really anything special. Got jerk chicken with waffle, cheesesteak omelet. The jerk chicken and waffles says to pick your waffle, which I thought I did, just to be surprised that I had ordered 2 waffles. The omelet comes with potatoes, it didnt specify on the menu, so ended up ordering 2 things off potatoes. It was a mess. But the vibe was nice. Maybe try a brine on the wings, a bit more egg in the omelet, the potatoes werent that great, maybe add a bit more salt or make them slightly spicy??? Idk. It was really clean!!!! Over priced, compared to the flavor we were expecting. Sorry... Ill try back in like a year. Proud of the black owned bit... but many blessings. Ill be back!
LA is the best server! She made me feel like I was in VIP all night. The food is great the drinks are better.
First time here and it did not disappoint!! The salmon bites are delicious! The Alfredo Mac n cheese is something you never tried before and you need to treat yourself and introduce it to your loved ones. The salmon grilled cheese .SALMON .GRILLED CHEESE. Changed my life. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. It was perfection on perfectly toasted bread. Jerk wings was finger licking good and they did not skimp on the sauce. They have a hookah section too which I will be trying in the future. This is a place where you go and try EVERYTHING on the menu.
Wonderful, friendly staff. Creative, inspired menu. 5 stars to anyone that makes scalloped potatoes that well.
The food was phenomenal and so was our service. Cute setup with hip hop vibes. I enjoyed the Fish Combo and Wings. The mac n cheese and green beans are great too. The bartender was everything, our drinks were surely tasty and perfect.
Great food, friendly service.
Absolutely awesome place. Delicious burgers and wings. Friendly prompt service.
Amazing
