About this business

This is the second time I've been here while staying in Richmond. Both times the wait staff is excellent, the food is tremendous and the boose are top notch! Regardless of if you're in to metal or GWAR, this is a great place to have dinner or drinks.

Drove down for brunch. Who drives two hours to get brunch? How could that possibly be worthwhile? Relax with a cocktail, pick something off the menu, and enjoy the ambient metal; it will all make sense. I personally enjoyed a Bloody Slymenstra (a deliciously seasoned and bacon-ed take on the Bloody Mary) and a Fat Kid Monte Cristo; I haven't eaten anything so decadent in a long, long, time, and the fact that I was devouring it while hearing Slayer and sitting across from Flattus' guitar only made it more rad.

Top notch grub. Minimally putrid atmosphere. They spill a good beer in you. The chick with the pink hair will rip your heart out your ass.
