Kisha Starks
2 week agoAtmosphere was great…clean and beautiful set up. I loved the ambiance. Me and my 3 sisters went for ones birthday. We also had another cheese steak egg roll plate and spinach artichoke dip with chips. For the most part all the meals were good. Complaints were the fries had a burnt taste and the french toast was mediocre but everything else was good. One sister raved about her steak. The other said her burger was yum and very fulfilling. The eggrolls and onion rings were great but the spinach dip was a lil thin (not as authentic tasting as I would have like less water more cheese. Not a large menu to choose from and food interest was minimal for me. They do offer gluten free. All and all I would definitely visit again for lie brunch or drinks. The tropical Bellini was great we double ordered!!

1 month agoMy wife and I went here on our third anniversary after hearing how great it is. The restaurant lived up to the reviews and surpassed our expectations. Our waitress, Saba, was so thoughtful and attentive, quick to replenish drinks and bring us more of the bread starter after we polished off the first plate. I ordered the filet mignon and it was easily the best steak I have ever had. The mashed potatoes were delicious and the parmesan brussel sprouts were delectable. We finished the meal with a chocolate cake that tasted like homemade cake and was somehow gluten free. I think they used dark magic to achieve the flavor and texture of that cake. The most impressive part of our experience, though, was the staff. They were so personable and kind, truly interested in catering to any dietary needs one may have and so on top of their game that we never wanted for anything. We will definitely be back and we hope the manager of this specific location is aware of how delightful their staff is. Kudos to them for fostering such an environment of wonderful people and incredible food.

1 month agoMy daughter and son in law finally got us to try Burtons. The wait was short for time of day we arrived. There was a gluten free menu for my daughter. The appetizer was delicious, as was the main course. We had something different so it was easy to compare the dishes. I had a couple Stella’s as well as a couple shots of chilled Blanton's. It was a little pricey for the four of us but we didn’t mind paying for good food. Overall a great place, will go back.

1 month agoThe food was good. The service was great. The price was reasonable. We got a bowl of salad, called Superfood. It was good. I liked the green mixed other stuff in the bowl. The dressing was good. We also got 2 burgers. They were very big. None of us finished the whole burger. The meat was juicy and flavorful. The service was nice. The server was very attentive and friendly.

2 month agoOur first time here and also it was my wife's birthday lunch.. Our waiter Sebastian was highly recommended by the host.. He was great!! Also, the host was so nice and sweet that she made my wife a hand made birthday card signed by all the staff from the restaurant... It was a wonderful gesture... My wife shocked and surprised by the card.. We definitely will be back!.. Thank You Burtons for a great dining experience...

3 month ago⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Family-Friendly. Flavor-Full. First-Class. Burtons Grill & Bar in the CaryTown section of Richmond exceeded every expectation we had for a special family meal. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming…but it was the food and service that made this experience unforgettable. We were a party of six, celebrating family and good times, and every single plate hit the mark. The chicken & waffles were golden perfection…crispy, buttery, and downright addictive. The burger with egg and bacon was next-level juicy. And those crispy cauliflower bites? Let’s just say we should’ve ordered a double portion! But what truly elevated the experience was the care from the staff. They treated our table like we were VIPs…attentive, kind, and genuinely happy to serve. That matters. In a city with plenty of great food spots, Burtons stands out as a place where hospitality and flavor shake hands. Whether you’re dining with friends, family, or just hungry for a next-level bite, make Burtons your go-to. We’ll definitely be back.

4 month agoI greatly appreciate everyone for their amazing services on one of my special days. When I say the food for a party of 18 on a Saturday was perfect, I mean it! Everyone enjoyed their food and server. This will be my first choice if I'm celebrating anything! No one had any issues; it was just great food, drinks, and celebrations. Thank you so much, Burton's.

4 month agoTheir gluten free menu is spectacular. The restaurant is beautiful inside, and our server, Jo, was amazing. I would recommend NOT ordering the lobster roll on the gf bun. Out of the many dishes we tried and given so many tasty sounding gf dishes on the menu, this dish isn’t the best option. The bun is dry, and the lobster was fresh, but it needed more mayo. I highly recommend the mac and cheese- it was perfection, and the parmesan truffle fries are also amazing. The ranch here is one of the best I’ve had! The fries were delivered cold, but we told our server who was apologetic, and the manager was quick to send out a fresh hot order. They handled it very professionally. It was busy on a Wednesday around 6:30pm, so I would recommend making a reservation for a Fri or Sat.
