We liked it! Easy enough! Had a table reserved and walked right in. Greeted kindly. Waitress greeted, gave suggestions, gave jokes! Our drinks came, that were great! The food arrived and was very tasteful! I would say that the only down side is the street parking but wasn't hard to find a spot, that night anyway.
We had a great dinner. Shrimpballs, Carpaccio, pesto with shrimp, short ribs ravioli, and seafood paella and wine. They say the seafood Paella was for two, but the person with us ate the whole thing by herself. Also ended it with coffee!
We loved it!
Such a special place and staff, I hope to meet the person behind the magic.
Try the unique cocktails! We had the Mascarpone and the Peanut Butter, Banana and Jelly. Delicious!
The entrees were amazing and dessert, very special.
The menu changes with the season so plan on returning again and again...we do! <3
I stumbled upon this gem a month ago and have since made a visit every week. I came on a Wednesday night and had a glass of wine at the bar, the atmosphere was amazing. Soft sounds, good authentic smells, incredible staff. A few days later, I did the brunch on Saturday morning. The passion fruit mimosas were absolutely delicious! I returned the following week to listen to some live jazz music, the pastas are great and everything is made IN-HOUSE. They have amazing cocktails, cappuccino’s, appetizers, and entrees! Keep in mind the menu does change quarterly, but so worth it!! 10/10 recommend!
Food is always wonderful! The interior is tastefully decorated and you can tell that the kitchen pays close attention to presentation of dishes. Service is impeccable! Sheena is very knowledgeable and often makes helpful suggestions to provide a fantastic dining experience. Music also fits the atmosphere! Love this place and will be coming back!
Amazing food and cocktails. We were rained out of a prior engagement so showed up an hour early for our reservation on a Friday, and they seated us right away. Everything was inventive and interesting. I would go back a couple times if I lived nearby!
This restaurant is beautiful! The service is lovely and well paced. Plus, the novelty of the cheese wheel is fun! I'd recommend this for a date night or small group as the lighting and music is not ideal for a larger group. I love that we were able to customize what noodles with what sauce we wanted. Definitely will be going back! The passionfruit mezcal cocktail is a must try!
The service and food were just wonderful. Our server Sara was very knowledgeable, attentive, professional and so sweet. All the food we tried was delicious. And they have seasonal items. What else can you ask for?
Had an experience with Sheena tonight at Botanya.
1st time here looked for a dining experience for our 36 anniversary
The place was elevated warm welcome room. Spotless bathrooms and wonderful food
Put on your short list for Richmond go to place
Go immediately. It’s sooo good. So good I forgot to take pictures of the entrees. The cocktails alone are worth it. They are different and complex. As my dinner companion said “it’s an experience.” We got the long beans with tarragon aioli, arancini, and the table side fettuccine. We devoured it in minutes. Each dish was better than the last. Servers are delightful and the atmosphere is lovely. My only complaint is that it’s a little loud. Not the music, just the crowd noise but it’s not nearly as bad as some other places.
I want to go back again tonight and definitely want to go back and try brunch.
Also, they have live music on Tuesdays.
