Best Seasonal Restaurants in Richmond

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Story Cafe, and I must say, it was an absolute gem! As someone who grew up locally but now only visits once a year, discovering this restaurant was a delightful surprise. I first came here for brunch with a friend and was so impressed that I immediately decided to bring my family back for dinner. When we arrived, we encountered an unexpected situation where another group had taken our reservation, claiming to be us. Despite the mix-up, the staff handled the situation with utmost grace and professionalism, quickly resolving it and ensuring we were well taken care of. The food was outstanding—every dish was flavorful and beautifully prepared. My friends and family all thoroughly enjoyed their meals, and the experience was nothing short of memorable. I truly hope that the exceptional quality of food and service remains consistent, as I can’t wait to return on my next visit home. Highly recommended!

We love the variety of foods, excellent services, cozy place, and we enjoyed our dinner together with my family ! Very convenient if you will book ahead at Open table. You can also reshedule the time at the apps- or manage your booking at your own convenience.

We had a wonderful Christmas dinner. We ordered one of their set menu dinners for 4. Service was great. The food was tasty. We would go back again.

One of my go to places to celebrate special occasions. Food is great, I always get the prime rib medium rare & never disappoints. Okay, maybe one time it did but not this time. The service is  phenomenal. Will definitely go there again!

Amazing experience! Love the experience with Chef Kazu, very friendly and cozy environment.
