It’s like an old pair of blue jeans, comfortable and just right. The food was great and the atmosphere was authentic and friendly. Also had the most diverse clientele on Main Street. Super cool. Going back every time I’m in Richmond.

Came here because I was soo hungry and every other restaurant around was closed. I don’t usually write reviews but I was absolutely NOT disappointed at all. Delicious food, MASSIVE portions. Ordered chicken Parmesan sub & fries. Absolutely stuffed and still have all of this left over. They deserve the rating.

Well first time here but probably last time because everything on the menu is so over priced in my opinion. Steak sub was huge enough to fill two peoples appetites and I ordered the clam chowder and that was good however it came out warm and not hot so.

I was pleasantly surprised after I stumbled upon this place. It’s very tight inside and you have seat yourself if you’re lucky enough to get a table. First the prices are great, second the food smells wonderful and lastly the food portion and taste was outstanding. I can’t wait to go back. Thank you Sidewalk Cafe

I went on Sunday as they opened. No line then, but it really picked up around 1030 so I reccomend getting in early. The inside is not very well lit and idk if they have issues circulating air but the a/c was off and the fans weren’t helping. Kind of an old, humid vibe inside, so i sat outside instead. It was Better, until the flies showed up. A lot of my critque is probably out of thier hands because it’s clearly an old building. But, beware for plenty of wear and tear if that matters too you.

Really really nice people! Placed order online on Sunday afternoon. Called to ask them to put the bread, lettuce tomato and onions on the side of the blackened chicken that we ordered, they said that they did not see the order come through yet, so we called back later to confirm that the online order came through, they still did not see our order, so they took our order. When we arrived to pickup the order, they informed us that the online order came through and they put our bread and toppings on the side. Myself and our daughters enjoyed the blackened chicken and chicken fingers. My wife had a tummy ache after eating the cheeseburger and chips. I thought the bread or bun that comes with the blackened chicken sandwich was hard or tough. We did not really like the potato salad, French fries and the coleslaw. Seemed like there was some seating outside, few people were outside eating and or waiting. Lot of people were inside and was a bit loud inside when we came in to pickup our food.

Gucci slides. Red hot chili pepper playlist (maybe Green Day playlist…?) An entire loaf of toasted bread for free. I got butter on my jeans. Feels like a tavern in Lord of the Rings. This place is a dive but you would not be able to tell from how exquisitely plated the caprese is. Tasteful but rowdy. Wow how did you do it. Just like any good bar, they have sticky floors and religious photos. Leave the front door open please

I adore dive bars and if they happen to have great food, that is a plus. I love love happy hours when I am on vacation. This place was recommended to me by the owner of Na Nin, and it did not disappoint. How can you go wrong with Beastie Boys and Tupac on the playlist? Definitely recommend!
