Best Southern American Restaurants in Bellwood

This is an amazing place - unknown to us before trying on Valentine's Day. The inside space is elegant and inviting, with table spacing that allows quiet and private conversation. Service is attentive but not overbearing, with occasional visits by the manager. Bar drinks were surprisingly tasty and original - we had the Shanes Strawberry Lemonade and Bloody Mary. We tried the Apple Pecan Salad, Shrimp 'n Grits, and Southern Cajun Pasta. If you're a fan of shrimp - both entrees had some of the best we've ever had. They were crunchy, juicy, spicy and plentiful. The pasta dish wasn't overly saucy and loaded with shrimp and fresh crabmeat. We can't wait to go back!

The Jefferson is one of the few places that remains as an example of old Richmond and I pray they never change. Just listen to the visitors from all over sitting around me and all you hear are people commenting to each other how delicious their meal is. My wife and I have enjoyed an evening there many times and I have tried several of the meals there. Every time it was exceptional. From their Tenderloin to their Rockfish, each meal was a special event. If you are looking for somewhere for a formal occasion like a special date, anniversary, etc. I highly recommend the Jefferson. It is a bit pricey, but the food and service is second to none.

This historic hotel in Petersburg, VA has been lovingly restored. Shirley’s offers a delicious dining experience from craft cocktails to 7 layer coconut cake. The three of us very much enjoyed every bite. Great service. Classic old school hotel atmosphere complete with basement speakeasy, The Boiler Room. Reasonable prices. Guaranteed return. Well done!

A perfect place to eat when you actually want to hear the table conversation! Lovely ambiance, outstanding service (thank you, Tyler!), fine food. Worth the money. The Jefferson is still the epitome of elegance in Richmond.

We had holiday brunch with friends. The restaurant is lovely, the service was on point, and the food was great!
