18 Essential Restaurants in Richmond, Virginia
"Since taking over the kitchen at The Roosevelt in 2022, chef Leah Branch has made the Church Hill restaurant a destination again, all thanks to the chef’s sure hand and old soul point of view. Think crab soup with saffron cream and bottagra and tobacco smoked pork butt with Deb’s (as in food anthropologist and writer Deb Freeman’s) Nana’s collards. Thanks to wine director Troy Hancock and beverage director Zack McRoy, The Roosevelt’s beverage program shines with Virginia-born bottles and inventive cocktails." - Stephanie Ganz
