Raw oysters and clams are the main attractions at Awful Arthur's, the best-loved seafood restaurant in Richmond. Inside a charming 19th-century warehouse, discover a fun, upbeat atmosphere. This is a comfortable place for young professionals. Live music is featured on most evenings. Awful Arthur's features a raw bar menu and a traditional dinner menu.

Spanish tapas and sangria |
1409 E Cary St Richmond, VA 23219 United States +1 804 643 0911 http://www.europarichmond.com |
This restaurant in historic Shockoe Slip is a great place to stop after a long day and relax over a drink and a few plates of tapas. Seared Tuna with a Raisin and Caper Tapenade is an unusual treat and the Artichoke Misto is a must for garlic lovers. For those with a heartier appetite, Europa offers three types of paella; the traditional rice and vegetable dish of Spain ;with meat, fish or a combination. The lunch menu is designed for those who are limited on time with a variety of panini sandwiches, pizzas and salads. Review © 2007, Wcities |

This Cuban-themed restaurant somehow achieves both a lively and romantic atmosphere. At brunch, you can watch the Farmers Market as you dine on the outdoor deck. If you want a spot outside, be sure to make a reservation. The menu is seafood heavy, but those who do not enjoy things fishy will love the shredded pork over rice with plantains. It is one of the least expensive and most delicious items offered. Havana has one of the largest drink selections in the city, including homemade margaritas. Review © 2007, Wcities |

 Fine China |
1302 E Cary St Richmond, VA 23219 United States +1 804 649 8888 http://www.pekingrestaurants.com |
A pair of stone lions greets you at the door at this popular Chinese restaurant. Dim lighting and elegantly set tables provide a perfect place for a quiet dinner for two. Large windows provide an entertaining view of busy Shockoe Bottom. Traditional Chinese dishes like Peking Duck with Plum Sauce, Mongolian Beef and Szechuan Chicken are cooked to perfection.

Situated in a classic structure in the historic district of the city, this famous beer pub has loads of the much-loved brew on tap and in barrel. Perch yourself in the lovely dining room and enjoy the view. Relish a hearty, contemporary meal or just go dancing in the joint's club. The area covered by this business is huge, and there's no dearth of things to do inside. Foosball, billiards, darts, dancing, big screen televisions keep patrons busy, while the brews flow fast, to keep them energized. Noisy and full of life, this is the place to go if you are feeling blue. Several different eating and drinking establishments within the same block. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Riverside retro |

Visiting here is like eating comfort food on a "Happy Days" set. The colorful tile counter is a very comfortable place to dine alone; customers and employees are friendly and conversational. River City is a great place to go for breakfast before visiting the Edgar Allen Poe Museum or St. John's Church, both in nearby Church Hill. Breakfast is crowded on weekends, so be prepared to wait for a table but know that it will be well worth your time. Traditional southern biscuits and gravy are the best in the city.
