General Public is inspired by trying to imagine what an upscale English pub would be if it had the heart of an American brasserie (and was open 11 to 11). It’s also going to signal a little bit of steakhouse, but not too much. And finally, it will look behind itself at the Black Hoof, which you will see reflected in James Santon’s menu here and there. In terms of vibe, the main floor is ‘everything’s gone green’, with lush comfortable banquette seating, warm wood, and barstools designed for long conversations over many cocktails. Upstairs you’ll find a completely different space that transports you to a peachy 80s dream. Somehow these two halves make perfect sense, and complement each other in a seamless conversation, where neither wins the argument, but you really do have to see it! See you soon!

    Have wanted to try this restaurant for a long time. Each dish was beautifully presented, showcasing a variety of flavors, colors, and textures. Surprisingly, the dishes incorporated a lot of Asian flavors paired with French techniques. Most of the dishes were excellent and unique, though there were a couple of misses. The service was good, with attentive staff. The ambiance was decent and comfortable, not suffocating or uncomfortable at all. Overall, I enjoyed my time and dinner here.

    The food was both inventive and delicious. My partner enjoyed the Nori-Cured Salmon while I savoured the Roasted Carrots—a perfect balance of flavours. For mains, my partner opted for the Chickpea Burger; while they felt the patty tasted slightly processed, I thoroughly enjoyed my Arctic Char, cooked to a tender and flavorful medium rare. We shared a creamy and indulgent Vanilla Custard for dessert—a sweet ending to a lovely meal. The ambiance was clean, uncluttered, and welcoming, with a vibrant yet relaxed energy. It was refreshing to dine among people fully immersed in enjoying a great meal rather than being distracted by social media. What stood out most was the exceptional hospitality. Every staff member we encountered made us feel genuinely valued as guests, and it was a special treat to meet the chef-owner, whose dedication to guest comfort and enjoyment is evident in every detail of the experience. Richmond Station is a gem I’m thrilled to have discovered, and I can’t wait to return for another memorable meal. I highly recommend it!
