Bar Solita offers a vibrant atmosphere with consistently "great food" and "excellent service." Guests rave about the brunch, especially the Mimosa flight, and the "fantastic" Mediterranean dishes.

    We dined at Bar Solita during Richmond Restuarant Week. We made a reservation but had to wait to be seated. Parking is tough so be prepared for that in this area of downtown Richmond. Ambience was okay- noise level is quite loud but probably due to very high ceilings of this lovely historic building. Food was good, nothing spectacular but a fun place to try for RRW.

    Enjoyed Fall RRWEEK and the chef out did themselves. Everything was delicious, flavorful and cooked good impress. We enjoyed the Dolmades, Shrimp Spaganaki and Harrisa Wing for apps. The Star was the Spaganaki & Harrissa sauce 😘 8/10 On entrees we had, Zatar chicken — add this to the regular menu, so tasty and the leeks was next level. We also had the Morrocan oxtail, so flavorful. ✨8/10 The dessert, my favorite was the Baklava Pumpkin Pie - definitely a delight ✨ 7/10 I enjoy Bar Solita often, whether for Brunch, Lunch or Dinner the food is always great. We were going to skip Bar Solita for restaurant week, but I’m glad we changed our minds and made them our first stop — definitely check them out the food was BUSSIN (in the best way) And thanks to our server Edwin, he was always right on time and gave great suggestions. Tip him well 😎 Until next time, stop by and grab a meal or two 😊 Honorable mentions - the venue is super cute for date night or with friends. Great for taking memorable pics (Instagrammable) and very spacious. - it’s the Old Popkins Building (historic)

    The food was excellent but the service was very slow. Especially for a Monday night when the restaurant wasn't even crowded. It was Restaurant week and I feel like they should have been better prepared.

    Perfect brunch place for our group of 10. The service was super friendly and always very attentive. The food came out quickly for such a large group. And of course it was all delicious. Loved sitting in the front next to the big windows.

    The food and service were awesome. The bathroom though was not matching the ambience of the restaurant. I would suggest they upgrade the bathroom.

    The food was delicious! I got the chicken biscuit with home fries. It had a little kick, and big enough for two people!! My sister had the breakfast burrito and loved it! This is just a great restaurant, always happy with the service and the food!
