Allyn ProffittMay 7, 2013The food was great and the portions were way bigger than expected and well worth the price. The service was great also. Try the Seared Tuna and/or the Crab and Brie Pizza. Yum!- APAOctober 2, 2012Half off sushi, pizza and drinks from 5 - 7. Pear and gorgonzola salad is great and if you have room for dessert, get the pizzookie. My favorite part of this place is of course the view though!
Briana BaileyMay 27, 2018Great service and tasty / fresh seafood. Hush puppies, calamari, scallops, surf n turf, etc all great. Sharif was an amazing waiter.
- Terri LahlouFebruary 18, 2019Had the Scallops and they were very good. Great vibe and view of the RVA skyline. Will definitely be back.
Sarah JamillahAugust 2, 2011Excellent food beautiful at sunset! If you're really hungry, get the crab cakes, If you want a smaller taste of something wonderful, have the scallops, both were delicious!
Berkeley GoodloeAugust 12, 2014My Kobe burger was very tasty and cooked to order. If you have a cocktail order the bartender cannot make, DO NOT TRUST HIS JUDGMENT ON AN ALTERNATIVE.
Fantastic food- especially the scallops & oysters. Great crab benedict at brunch too & awesome views of the RVA skyline. Ask for Ross- best server there!
Mia WallsSeptember 1, 2011Go for a fun time with the girls or a date after 5pm for the happy hour specials! Amazing - half off the CRAB pizza AND sushi!- April GuidryAugust 10, 2014This was the second time eating at the Boathouse and I absolutely loved the peach Bellini and fish tacos...yummy!!
One of the best bloody marys in the city - ask for extra pickled green beans!
Dan HoltMarch 13, 2016We had brunch, and it was very good. The gravy on the plate went with everything I ordered.
Marsha SompayracJune 24, 2017Get there early for Sunday brunch and you may get a seat outside. Great view!
Shelita McBrideFebruary 14, 2013Good drinks and a nice band can't ask for more! Try the Pear & Gargonzola pizza...delish!
CC TMarch 24, 2018I had the shrimp and grits. The portions were way small, it was overpriced, and it was just ok. I needed to add salt. Beautiful atmosphere though.
Ronald WeberApril 4, 2011Fantastic Food, Wonderful view of Richmond. While we dined there were Bald Eagles flying back and forth over the river! Great Place!!
The Flats at West Broad VillageNovember 10, 2014Great place to eat with the best view. Best seafood!
Best Long Island Iced Tea ever. 10/10. Would order again.
Get the crabcake! It's SO worth it. And the pizzookie - say goodbye to your diet. Awesome covered patio.
Get the Crab Puppies! So good and their full of real meat! http://eatthisrva.com/2012/04/18/crab-puppies/
- Linda ClearyJune 28, 2018Food is good but overpriced. Service is attentive. Views on deck are marvelous.
terrific brunch for a special occasion or a decadent weekend.
- The Flats at West Broad VillageDecember 16, 2014Have a drink while the sun is setting! SO beautiful :)
Michael RitcheyAugust 14, 2014Atmosphere and view of downtown is best in Richmond. The food was amazing. I had the broiled seafood dinner. Each item had a distinct natural flavor not overpowered by salt like some seafood places.
Great view, great food (and drinks), SPECTACULAR service!!!!
Make a reservation - especially Friday or Saturday night. Wait times are often over 90 minutes.- Linda ClearyJune 28, 2018Drinks are expensive and prepared with hardly, if any, booze in them. Stay away from mojitos and order wine.
Great Kobe burger and fried oysters! The views alone are worth going.
Kate HallOctober 16, 2011Screw the reservations & dine on the patio, weather permitting, gorgeous out here!
