Named by Richmond Magazine as one of the best destinations for seafood and outdoor dining in the Richmond area, The Boathouse restaurant and event spaces wed impeccable waterfront views with authentic, locally-sourced cuisine. From the classically Southern shrimp and grits featuring sausage from Surry, VA to pizza made with authentic Italian recipes, the menu is distinctive and, most importantly, delicious.

When we were dreaming dreams and drawing drawings of our brand new clubhouse, we wanted to create something that goes far beyond your typical golf course restaurant.
The Grille was always intended, and indeed is, a place where family, friends, residents, neighbors and the entire Richmond community can come together and enjoy each other’s company. Amazing food is an essential part of the experience, but we keep it reasonably priced so that everyone can enjoy.
Our seating setup is designed to create spaces for every occasion – from the private and intimate Reserve room for special dinners, as well as the high tops, traditional tables and 10 TVs scattered throughout. Special attention was paid to make the entire facility wheelchair friendly.

    The kind of dining experirnce you only expect to find in the city is available in suburbia. I moved into Richmond to be closer to good restaurants, and now they have at least one in Midlothian. Everything about the place is top notch, especially the food. Worth the trip back out to Midlothian.

    The environment at Ruth's Chris Steak House is pleasant and very calm. The service was amazing as the waiter came by several times to take our order, answer questions and ask how our food/drinks were. The food was very delicious and presented to us very well. This was our first time going here and it did not disappoint! We would love to come here again in the future for a nice sit down experience. I would give this restaurant a 10/10 experience.

    The Igloo setting is perfect!! We enjoyed the privacy of it, and our waiter was awesome. He came on time for the next order and was very pleasant and attentive. The sunset was breathtaking!!! It was the perfect way to begin the year.

    We were greeted and seated immediately. Our server was wonderful. She was able to recommend several menu items. I had the Baked French Toast (Brunch Menu) and it is fabulous. Very custardy, lightly browned and drizzled with caramel sauce. Garnished with fresh Strawberries and Black Berries. Definitely worth a return trip!
