An evening at Arcadia was time well spent! The building interior and exterior are very charming and serve as a great backdrop for the wonderful food. The Rock Shrimp Mac & Cheese tasted fresh and homemade. My Arugula Apple Salad was delicious and left me feeling satisfied. Of course, only until the amazing chocolate gelato arrived and completed the meal... More

Five of us went to celebrate our nieces graduation from U of R. We ordered five apps. The fried chicken had no flavor. They are aged steak cooked medium rare was not that tender. Brussels Sprouts so salty I'm surprised I don't have cankles for weeks. Dessert was good though.

Arcadia, in Carytown, offers a wide-ranging menu of new twists on southern palate, with locally sourced vegetables, meats and seafood. We were there on a Tuesday and to our delight found that many bottles on the wine list were half price on Tuesday. To get the $24/3 course prix fixe deal, everyone at the table has to go with it....

I have eaten here several times without reviewing and will rectify that now. It is one of my very favorite places to go for dinner. If there are Brussels sprouts on the menu, do yourself a favor and get them. I know you don't think you like them, but trust me on this, they will change your mind. Also, the... More

We had wanted to try this place. Good reviews. The dinner started off nice. Good waiter and the salads were good. Then a group of 8 people showed up. Obvious friends of the owner. It quickly became obvious they were very drunk. They were basically yelling to each other with all kinds of cuss words. When the owner came by... More

Amazing! the service we received was amazing! Such a kind waiter, I was a little nervous towards the end when we had asked to see the dessert menu and it was taking him forever to get it to us, BUT to our surprise he brought out this delicious chocolate gelato, ice cream thing with a think rich chocolate truffle type...

Had a business lunch here today and the atmosphere for lunch is bright, quiet and the service is wonderful. Had the crab cakes that were awesome, the signature soup and salad. It is obvious that care in preparation is taken as each dish was superb. I'll be back on my next trip to Richmond.

Based on reviews on trip adviser I stopped by this place while traveling through Richmond. I really appreciated the ambiance of the place - quite nice and subdued. At the bar were what appeared be regulars/locals, which I feel adds to character. Food was very nice. As for starters, the lobster bisque teetered on being a bit heavy but was... More
