- On August 24 ["2021/openings" 2021] The Richmond opened, completely renovated, rebuilt, and cleaned up but with a lot of its old charms and signature architectural and culinary elements intact. People will recognize the place but the vibe and feel are substantially revitalized. According to one of the owners ( Ralph Vincent DI Tucci - owner of Cristallino Ice Company and ["Bar Mecca"] next door), the intent is to preserve the place but also make it a bit more upscale but comfortable enough that you won't feel out of place or that the place is too fancy- welcoming to everyone. - Signature Cocktails, Classic Cocktails, good liquor selection, and a quite respectable and thought out beer selection to satisfy almost everyone without going overboard. - Same applies to the food menu. Personally, I would characterize it as Appetizers or bar food. But nicely done bar food with pizza from Dough Boyz on the weekend. Gone is the stage on the first floor replaced with comfortable mid-century style seating. Upstairs is redone with seating in the front, windows you can actually see out of, and a lounge-like atmosphere. Of course, the rear patio has been totally overhauled and spiffed up and is a pleasant area to hang out on too.	+ On August 24 ["2021/openings" 2021] The Richmond re-opened.

- ------ - ''2013-06-29 10:49:00'' [[nbsp]] On a damp Friday night at the Jazz Fest we slipped down the street to Richmond's for a bite to eat about 7:30PM. On arriving it appeared to be a decent bar but there was no evidence of food being served. We asked and were assured they could feed us, were promptly seated across from the bar, and presented menus. Unfortunately they showed very little resemblance to the fairly interesting menu posted on their website. My wife settled for a cheese steak which was good. My shrimp po-boy was overcooked and dry. The house-made potato chips were the best part of the meal (along with the cold beer). I don't know if we were too early, or too late, or the online menu was just a form of bait-and-switch. Although the staff was very friendly and welcoming, we probably won't bother to stop back. --["Users/jgerek"] - ------ - ''2014-11-09 19:00:05'' [[nbsp]] Usually a spot of mine to go to after a long night of work. I have been through 2 owners and still frequent the bar. Last night, I happened in after work and ordered my usual. This included an order of fries and wings, as well as a beer and a double shot. What slapped me in the face is that i ordered my meal, and it was given to me in a to go box. I looked down the bar and noticed that everyone else who had been recently served were given cute little trays with their food. I asked the bartender if I had asked for my food to go. he said N, but its late night and we just figured... I stopped listening at that point. I figured he served my food "to go" so , I should leave, which I quickly did, leaving half my drink on the bar. I have a stressful enough job and go to Richmond's to wind down. Suffice it to say, my night was ruined, I took my food home and opened it... only to find ugly "broken boned" wings and over cooked french fries. Time to find another spot to wind down because I know BOSCO would not have allowed me to leave his location as frustrated as I was. but wait... BOSCO isn't there and this is a new owner... time for a new wind down spot. I will be sure to spread the word. --["Users/iceeyes"] - ------ - ''2015-10-05 13:50:07'' [[nbsp]] I'm sorry iceeyes, but I can't stop re-reading your post and laughing. --["Users/DE"] - ------ - ''2017-11-30 15:52:27'' [[nbsp]] One odd thing about this place is that they don't do takeout orders unless it is ordered through Grubhub. Went to order wings over the phone once and they told me that. Got them from Marshall Street instead. Besides that, I like Richmonds. Good bar food. --["Users/DE"]
