- WWillvipOrlando / Central Florida East •7 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI’ll try to avoid exaggeration here but I may have just had the best meal of my life. I had the special which was shrimp and sausage with orecchiette pasta and it was so good. I mean just really really incredible. My dinner partner had the famous 5 which is basically their spaghetti. It was the best spaghetti I have ever tasted and I’ve had plenty. The service was incredible. The entire meal took about 40 minutes from the time we sat down and we had an appetizer as well. The value is great considering we have leftovers for 3 more days and that is not hyperbole. This is the best restaurant for the money in richmond Virginia. Of that I have no doubt.More infoStella's - RichmondPrice: Moderate• Greek• Richmond•4.9
- MMyraWashington, D.C. Area •19 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoLeMaire was wonderful! My dining companion and I were attending an event at the Carpenter Center and running late for our reservation. We called ahead and were accommodated upon arrival. The restaurant advised by signage that they were working on improvements, and when we entered our dining area it was apparent. Once seated we were fine, thanks to our server Dave. We let him know we were trying to make a curtain and made sure our order was priority level. LeMaire and The Jefferson are a step back in time to fine dining and artistry of food presentation and artwork on the walls. Each room was as if you were sitting in someone's personal dining room. Our food and drinks were wonderful. We would love to return!More infoLemaire at The Jefferson HotelPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Richmond•4.7
- JJessicaVirginia •4 reviews4.0Dined 2 days agoThe food was amazing, we got the Braveheart filet (which was perfect) and the steak su poivre (which was a little too peppery). The chocolate terrine was delicious too!More infoBuckheads - RichmondPrice: Very Expensive• Steak• Richmond•4.8
- MMadelineVirginia •2 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoFantastic dinner. David Shannon rocks. Every morsel was over-the-top delicious and Kendel, our server, couldn't have been more polished, personable, and professional. The Vegan Orgy on Texas Beach was a complete flavor banger as promised, I would sell my soul for another bite of the Swank Bank — the whole thing is obscenely delicious, and the halibut was, of course, to die for. Thank you for a special birthday dinner.More infoL'OpossumPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Richmond•4.9
