Best in Richmond - hands down! by PhoodPhanatic via Citysearch on 4/8/2012
This is our family's favorite dining spot. There is no better seafood around. It has the perfect combo of delicious cuisine, enjoyable ambiance and attentive service. My absolute top-choice meal is Surf & Turf, but Pan-seared Scallops…
Fabulous... by Bernlinden via Citysearch on 4/6/2012
Passed through and had been to Bookbinders in Philly, thought I give this one a try...the best food and ambiance. Wish Bookbinders opened in Los Angeles.\r
Wish I were in Richmond again just for another wonderful experience. Thank you…

I will NOT be eating at Old Original Bookbinders again.
-Overpriced, generic food. Filet was overcooked, Salmon was dry (nice flavors though...). The only saving grace of the meal and wine were the…
Excellent food. by danabwhite via Citysearch on 1/21/2010
Everything we ordered was delicious. The crab cakes were simply crab - no fillers. Very good. The Kona filet was the best steak my friend had had in a very long time. Unique. The mozzarella salad (wrapped in prosciutto) was a good twist of…
Fancy by Benjamin H via Insider Pages on 3/15/2009
My favorite get dressed up nice and eat out place. The best seafood and steak in the whole city. While prices are $50-$75 a person, you will not regret it. I had a friend once quote, "That steak was so good I took my first bite and…
Bookbinders by Matt P via Insider Pages on 2/4/2008
This is a very classy restaurant. The menu items are a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. The steaks are really good and the service is fast and friendly. It is a cozy environment. It is a great place to bring relatives and…
Great bread, snob service by luvtodineandtravel via Citysearch on 1/29/2008
Was looking forward to Bookbinders for our weekly nice dinner for my husband and I. Its pretty inside and the ambience is nice. They honored our request and got us a booth so that we could sit next to each other. Most of the patrons have…
Awsome by keltraylor via Citysearch on 11/14/2007
My husband and I went for our 1st anniversery. We LOVED it...Although I was kind of expecting a little more. The food is very filling and good...kind of bland though. Crabcakes are def. the best!! hands down! Wine was wonderful! Valet a…
It is just a great place by lovetofinedine via Citysearch on 5/9/2006
it is just my favorite place in Richmond, VA. The best Crab Cakes.
Best place to eat in Richmond- No contest by 1979blackvet via Citysearch on 4/7/2006
Every time we dine here, we need a wheelbarrow to take us to the car. The food is so spectacular that we cant stop eating. They say the number one way to a mans heart is through his stomach this restaurant has my heart. Great service,…
Great "Birthday Place" by dock via Citysearch on 11/6/2005
My wife and I spent a romantic weekend in a local Bed and Breakfast. The Old Original Bookbinders was part of our trip we are still talking about. The food was terrific and the service was among the best. While Bookbinders is not…

If you would like an Outstanding Dining Experience in Richmond VA, the place to visit is Bookbinders! The Ambiance is Superb, the Service is Superb and, of course the food is the Finest! FRESH Fish, including Lobster is featured on the…
Appreciate the Pace by cavwa via Citysearch on 6/29/2005
Any negative reflection on the service may be the result of a misunderstood appreciation for the inherent bearing of Bookbinders. This restaurant embodies the culture of culinary leisure. There are no churn and turn table ushers trying to…
The best place in town! by katwest859 via Citysearch on 5/16/2005
I can not say enough about what a wonderful time we had here. The service is exceptional and the food outstanding. Beautiful Restaurant!
Please try it by uvachief via Citysearch on 4/14/2005
I was horrified of going to this place because I thought it was insanely expensive. My brother wanted to go for his birthday so we decided to try it. Its not overpriced and actually pretty reasonable for the quality of the food and…
Very Good by Belllingham50 via Citysearch on 5/18/2003
I've been trying to go to this restaurant for two years, but not until last week did I finally go. We had a WONDERFUL time. The service and the food were tops in the city! It was worth the wait.
Consistently Good by bellwood1000 via Citysearch on 3/21/2003
I disagree with the negative reviews contained herein. I have been to Bookbinders about 10-12 times since it opened and have yet to be disappointed. I have tried their steaks, seafood, most of the appetizers, salads, and the soups. I…
Impressive place to take clients by Worthington56 via Citysearch on 3/4/2003
Several times I've been to Bookbinder's, once on someone else's ticket and three times on my dime. Each time the service was exceptional and the food scrumptious. Warmly decorated. I would highly recommend this great new addition to our…
Finest Cuisine in the City! by baldy1881 via Citysearch on 2/3/2003
I was truly impressed with the food quality at this restaraunt as well as the atmosphere and service. The crabcakes are hands down the best and the beef is juicy and tender. I would highly recommend this restaraunt for special occasions.…
