Europa opened in September 1998, bringing Richmond its first ever tapas restaurant. The menu of close to two dozen selections was an instant hit with guests, offering an entirely new experience in dining. Popular items on our menu include seared rare tuna, crab stuffed shrimp, Spanish meats and cheeses and beef hangar kebobs. Add to that a full selection of traditional pasta dishes, entrees and our signature dish, paella, and its easy to see why Europa gives diners one of the most interesting menus Richmond has to offer. An extensive bar, wide selection of European and American wines and Sangria made in house complete an experience like none other.

KAI  

Redefining Richmond Nightlife.

 

KAI is an upscale nightclub featuring a blue water filled bar, a laser light show and numerous monitors and projectors playing Top 40 videos.  

 

Known more for the nightlife aspect of their business, The Lucky Buddha is also host to a diverse sushi menu that changes regularly, Japanese dishes, and fairly-priced appetizers.  Later at night, the bar fills with people poised to pounce on the dance floor (and perhaps each other, barring a disaster).  Guest DJ's spin dance music for guests, and if you're really special, you can hang out in the VIP area complete with your very own bouncer! Located in Shockoe Bottom, it's perfectly positioned for a quick pit stop for the barhopper or as the central location for a stationary (but still just as fun) party.

Richmond Sine   Siné (pronounced “Shin-áy) Irish Pub and Restaurant in Richmond’s historic Shockoe Slip opened in May, 1999, when renovations of the former warehouse space were complete. Modeled after authentic “city pubs” in Ireland, parts of Siné’s rustic interior were actually designed and built in the mother country then transported across the Atlantic. The result is a comfortable and traditional Irish pub accessible to all in the Richmond Metropolitan area. With cozy snugs, a huge bar and spacious dining areas, patrons will agree - Siné lives up to its Gaelic name – “This is it!”.

Pubs in Ireland are a community gathering place – a comfortable place for family and friends to spend some time together. At Siné, they’ve tried to create the same atmosphere with great food and plenty of cozy areas to sit and relax. Their menu includes traditional Irish pub fare as well as American food served with a Celtic flair. They serve lunch, after work specials, dinner and Sunday brunch. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday, their pub patrons enjoy live entertainment for free. They’re happy to serve large parties and will even take care of special events – just contact their general manager, Bob McNulty, or head chef, Patty McGuire.
