Pane E Vino - Richmond

This is exactly what Italy is like–I’m serious! Fresh, homemade, thoughtfully crafted, delicious dishes with a ton of heart. The ambiance is fantastic and you’ll want to take the decor home. The waitstaff is helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Thebolognese lasagna and alla ruota pasta with shrimp have been my favorite dishes so far. End your meal with their homemadecheesecake (you’ve never tasted anything like it) and chocomouse (a chocolate lovers dream) washed down with a cappuccino. YOUGUYS, it’s incredible!!

Don’t get excited by the hyped reviews from some folks. I don’t understand the reason for this hype or the restaurant was once good. But our exp was below normal at hyped prices. Most of the menu items weren’t available n the waitress was new ncouldn’t understand English!! The only gratification was their bruschetta as appetizer which was good but again nothingextraordinary. My salad didn’t even the rt amt of dressing n requested extra dressing came in too late

This restaurant moved from Fry road to across 1093 at Lakes of Bella Terra. It has upsized and upgraded itself to like fine dining. It even ha live music when we visited on a Friday. Food wise, I think the menu has improved and they taste just as good if not better.

I went for the first time on Saturday with a friend and we will definitely be back. What made the whole experience was our server, Neisser. She is fantastic and all her recommendations were on point and she was very attentive. She recommended the Burrata appetizer, which was amazing and she recommended my main course which was the risotto. The beef was super tender and the sauce was amazing!!! We got the molten cake for dessert one I highly recommend getting. The only thing I feel they need to rethink is serving room temperature tap water?gross

Definitely a new favorite. Went with a group of 10 for our monthly friends dinner and we were all satisfied. We went on a Friday and enjoyed the live music and dim lit room. Each room had a different theme or accent wall I loved. We enjoyed the Melanzane alla parmegiana (similar to the Auberginenparmesan and the Alla Ruota (fettuccine sat in a Parmesan wheel. The pasta killed herself! it was so good and the table side presentation was a nice touch. The eggplant had a beautiful crumb and only the perfect amount of sauce and cheese. I ordered my favorites, an espresso martini and it was delicious, a little sweet, but still really good. Can't find the names, but my husband enjoyed the cocktail similar to a Manhattan and the one similar to an old fashion and loved them both. I would have rated 5 except the service, although friendly was long. I expect longer waiting times for a group of 10 BUT I also worked the industry. I'll wait too long for my drinks if others would order for me to get theirs and then wait too long for our server to come here. Will definitely return only woth a smaller group and maybe at the bar.
