Bucket list restaurants in Richmond, VA

We’re about ready to roll out our ultimate Richmond bucket list — but we figured we’d start off with the River City restaurants readers recommended. Here are some of the picks.

  • “Dinner at Kitchen 64, my all time favorite.” – Pattie G.
  • “Eat at Edo’s, Bacchus, and Dinamo.” – Sam P.
  • “Brunch at Perly’s.” – Hannah F.
  • “Something from Shyndigz… preferably a mile-high slice of cake.” – Sara R.

We also heard love for Buz and Ned’s, Postbellum, Grisette, Kuba Kuba, and Proper Pie, plus drinks from Buddy’s and The Jasper.

What’s missing? If there’s a local eatery Richmond just wouldnt be the same without, we want to know about it.
