We arrived at 11:30 and it was very quiet. The hostess tried to sit us on top of another couple. When we asked for another seat she rolled her eyes at us. Our server was very very slow. We ordered a lettuce wrap to start. It took almost and hour to come out. It looked like they had never made it before. Everything was in heap and looked very unattractive. The lettuce was old and wilted. The only good thing was the peanut sauce.Finally our lunch arrived and it wasn't what we had ordered. Since by now we had been there 90 minutes we were not about to complain. I was given some Thai chicken salad sandwich that literally had one small piece of chicken on one side and not much more on the other. It came with some ugly soup that tasted as bad a it looked. I didn't eat any of eat. Waitress didn't look surprised and didn't ask.Finally we just had to tell her we had to go. Almost 2 hours for lunch that wasn't edible and cost over $55 before tip. Based on this horrible experience we would never go back even if it were free. I cannot believe the low quality of the food and the poor service from start to finish. I really have no idea how this place makes it.Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are terribly sorry for your disappointing experience with us. Our food and service should have been much better than what you have described. Please know that we will do our best to make this an isolated experience and thank you for taking the time to leave us your review!

Pho 1 Grill is a good location for a variety of Vietnamese food. I particularly like the namesake pho with soft tendon, bible tripe, flank steak and meatballs, and my friend likes the vermicelli with chicken and vegetables. The spring rolls are always a good choice for an appetizer, but there are many other options. The prices are good and the staff is usually pleasant and helpful.

We had a large-ish table arrive and they were able to seat us immediately even though the place was crowded. They are efficient with crowds and we did not have to wait long for service, our food, or refills. Great restaurant, great staff, great food.

We tried to visit on a recent Saturday night and the wait was extreme so we returned upon opening on Sunday. We had a yummy appetizer of the crispy chicken rolls at the bar and then ordered our entrees as take out to enjoy upon our return to Alexandria. I have eaten at Fat Dragon many times but it was my boyfriends first time there. He was not expecting a fun and trendy restaurant! His stereotypical expectation of an old school Chinese place was no where to be found. The food exceeded his expectations as well, ensuring weâll return again on future visits to Richmond!

Mexican-Asian fusion place. Spacious restaurant with good food and an excellent beer selection. Probably best for a younger crowd, but a lot of fun and very lively, even for an old (60) guy like me!

Go for the beer AND the food. Neither will disappoint. The bacon fried rice and the steamed homemade dumplings were authentic yet creative. High quality, lots of flavor. The ambience is fun and cool and welcoming. The beer selection and quality is top notch. Definitely my favorite restaurant in that area.

My wife surprised me one afternoon, and came by to take me to lunch. As I work Downtown, the first place that came to mind was Millieâs. I have heard so much about this family owned restaurant that we couldnât pass up the opportunity to experience it.Millieâs is a small, yet charming and cozy in its own way. The afternoon we went, it was not crowded, and we were seated in a booth of our choice. The waitress was friendly and offered recommendations from the menu. Cheeseburgers for the both of us, with a more than ample side of the best home fries Iâve ever tasted.Everyone in and around Richmond needs to enjoy a meal at Millieâs at least once. Weâll be back for brunch very soon.
