The Best Restaurants in Richmond, Virginia | Eater DC

"Top Chef alum (and current Tournament of Champions semifinalist) Brittanny Anderson’s ode to the food and wine of the Alps, Brenner Pass offers a spacious, modern setting to enjoy fondue in Dansk pots, chicken liver mousse, or a roasted half chicken with mustard apple jus. But save room for a trip next door to Black Lodge, a fun-loving dive bar born during the pandemic where killer cocktails pair nicely with the “Tower of Power” — a selection of hot dogs, patty melts, and French fries that satisfy late-night cravings in one fell swoop. Looking for something just a skosh more German? Head to Church Hill to sister restaurant Metzger Bar & Butchery, where the Frühstück Brett (charcuterie, pretzel roll, soft egg) at brunch is an unmatched delight." - Stephanie Ganz
