Best Romantic Restaurants in Mechanicsville

Bookbinders: 4.86 ⭐️ We got a premium parking spot directly in front of the entrance. 10/10 *it is a Tuesday so set your expectations accordingly* The host staff was very friendly. They asked me ahead of time if it was anyone’s birthday and put the birthday guy’s name on the menu. Nice touch. 10/10 The owner greeted every table and introduced himself. Very smiley. Personablele guy. 10/10 The Cajun tuna was amazing. 12/10 The scallops were one minute overcooked but I think it may have been from sitting waiting on the rest of the food to be ready to leave the kitchen. 8/10 The ribeyes were not the best we’ve had. 7/10. The horseradish sauce was 10/10. The wedge was perfect. Fresh and crisp. 10/10 The clam chowder was 10/10. Both potato sides were 10/10. Our server was great. He was spread a little thin with other diners, but we weren’t in a hurry. He apologized for any delays. He recommended the Tuna and he was not wrong. He served and cleared like a pro. Kept the wine poured. Gave the birthday guest a slice of cake to close out the night. 10/10

Stella’s is such a great experience. Food, service and ambiance is perfect! Derek our server was friendly and explained specials with enough detail to make the selection easy.

Went there before seeing Moulin Rouge at the Altria Theater. Food was great and service was outstanding. Had a great time.

Lovely experience! Food and service was great! Gabby was a wonderful server. Gave excellent advice.

An exceptional dining experience. From the eye-popping interior to the quiet and attentive service to the beautifully presented dishes to the delicious cuisine. Well worth the wait to get a table and well worth the expense. A truly great evening--thank you!
