Came in on a weeknight and they had a small, 3-piece band lightly playing to fill the atmosphere with gentle, entertaining sounds. Their menu is interesting, but I have to say I was disappointed to not find vegetarian options for their pizzas. There might have been one, but for a truly artistic place in such a liberal, artsy area, they should have had more options.

Service was mixed – Our main server was forgetful and spacey… We would ask for things and he’d acknowledge and walk away only to come back a few minutes later and ask what we asked him for. Come on… Do better, management!

As for the food – The pizzas really needed a slightly higher temperature and about 30 seconds more. The meatballs were cold inside and the sauce was luke warm. The Calabrian cauliflower was also on the cool side – very odd considering we saw char marks on them. Hmm…
The flavor of the pizzas was nice though, but it would have been so much better if it was a little more charred and crusty.

Overall – This was on my ‘hit list’ for visiting the downtown Richmond area, that’s why I brought colleagues here for dinner, unfortunately it didn’t deliver – far from it.

This restaurant opened about a year ago and boy are we glad it did! The wood fire pizza has the perfect combo of crispy crust on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The pizza toppings are top notch and some of the best pizza in RVA! High recommend the signature burrata because the sliced pork cheek is next level! (Think bacon but on steroids!) The pasta is handmade and you can taste the freshness! Seriously so good! The Hanger Steak was next level, it had a beautiful char on the outside but cooked to a perfect medium rare! You don’t see Hanger steak often so we were very excited as it is one of the best cuts of beef you will ever eat! If you have never had fried polenta you simply must order the Shrimp & Fried Polenta.

The best way to eat here is to order several dishes for the table and share everything. This way everyone gets a taste of several yummy dishes they have to offer.

If you’re looking for a great place for a date night or somewhere to take the whole family then look no further! There isn’t a bad dish on the menu 10/10 would recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone!

This restaurant was alright. The meatballs were the star. The taste was great, they were moist and perfection. The plating was very good. The calamari was a bit over cooked and oily. Broccolini, I’ve hadmuch better. The arugula salad was very good. I was disappointed that the pizza was lopsided. Yah, that’s being really picky but this style of pizza is about the craftsmanship, the perfect crust and perfect char. The taste was a 4. The char was on point. There were chanterelle mushrooms so that made me happy. It was really cold out so that may have tainted my impression of the environment. So I’ll give them a 4 but grudgingly, I’ll have to try them again.

The place is nice, clean & cozy, and their menu is so different, if you want to eat something different, this is the spot. Do not expect to see spaghetti on the menu, although today they went out of their way to accommodate my special needs and made me a beautiful spaghetti with tomato sauce and Parmesan cheese (check the picture out). But seriously, you’ll see their menu has lots of fresh ingredients like fennel & sage that gives it that clean crispy taste but do expect a little kick in the end.

This place was amazing. I have several dietary restrictions including gluten and dairy. This is a brick oven pizza place and still I was able to eat like a queen. Sam the chef and part Owner came out and spoke with me directly. He then created dishes that I could enjoy. I am usually unable to eat when I’m at a conference with colleagues but Sam accommodated my needs and prepared not one but two amazing dishes for me. This place has friendly staff, nice atmosphere and they really care about their customers. I recommend it to folks who live in Richmond and folks traveling through as well. Well done.

Not only are the pizzas baked in a wood-fired oven, but even the lettuce in the Caesar salad picks up a subtle smoky flavor.

The meatballs are tender and juicy, served in a slightly sweet tomato sauce. I kept dipping my pizza into the sauce even after all the meatballs were gone.

Y’all!! Take a trip to Brickfire! The staff is friendly, and the food is ridiculously good. The dates with goat cheese is divine. The burrata appetizer had so much flavor, and was big enough to share. Good lighting, good music!

Amazing dinner! Highly recommend the dates and Meatballs for appetizers! We had the sausage and rapini pizza and the butternut squash and sage pasta were amazing! Sam, the chef, helped our colleague with her dietary restrictions and made her some custom dishes that almost made her cry! Wonderful cocktails and enjoyed some live music. Highly recommend!!! We forgot to take pictures before digging in!

Everything from the atmosphere and staff to the cocktails—and most importantly, the pizzas—is absolutely stellar.

It was, without exaggeration, the best pizza I have ever had, and that’s coming from someone who has eaten pizza their entire life. I ordered the meatball pizza, and it was exceptional.

This is an absolute must-visit for locals and visitors alike. For an establishment that only opened in 2024, they are clearly on track to leave their mark and become a beloved local classic in no time.

What a great place right around the corner from Richmond Hilton Downtown. I went early so the restaurant was empty. The service was great and the food was very good. I loved the flavor of the pizza dough which was very light. I also tried the fire roasted meatballs. They put the in the pizza oven and it gives them a very rich delicious flavor.
