Best Restaurants for Foodies in Henrico

I will probably (most definitely) never experience a glass of Screaming Eagle in my lifetime... Screaming Eagle is the second most expensive bottle of wine EVER sold at auction—it held first position for 18 years—now holds strong at #2. But at the Wine Whisperer last night, I did enjoy great food paired with this week’s Iconic Winemakers flight: Michael Silacci (Opus One), Kirk Venge (Trespass), and get this: HEIDI BARRETT. Heidi f-ing Barrett of Screaming Eagle fame. The Heidi Barrett glass in the flight wasn’t her Screaming Eagle, but rather, her work with Lamborn Family. She is now a consulting winemaker at a few estates, making her work more accessible to wine lovers, enthusiasts, and geeks-in-the-know. SHE’S AT THE WINE WHISPERER, PEOPLE. *swoon*

The food was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend. The staff was amazing and very friendly and knowledgeable. Overall probably the best steakhouse experience we have ever had.

Excellent local upscale Italian restaurant with white tablecloths dining. Great service by Amy who was very knowledgeable about the different menu items and was able to make informed advice to my wife, who is Gluten Free! Food delivered n a timely manner with Excellent plate presentation and appearance. Good all cooked to perfection with very ample portions. Our entrees were Baked spaghetti w/meatballs, Lamb chops, and Arrabbita pizza. We also had the mozzarella & Prosciutto appetizer, which was a highlight to start the evening. Excellent choices of accompanying wines as well.

Great service and food. My daughter got a gluten-free pizza which she really enjoyed and I got the chopped salad which was delicious, balanced flavors, and well dressed. The server was personable and attentive.

Went for Thanksgiving dinner. Food was ok but really appreciated the staff working on a holiday.
