Manchu

This place never disappoints! I've been here multiple times, and the food and service is always top-notch. I usually go for their chicken banh mi sandwich because they make a FANTASTIC and authentic banh mi. Super flavorful. Their fries are great as well! I really like their Cajun fries. And they beat the best sauces. Manchu is kind of a hidden gem, hole in the wall, take out place. It's easy to order on their website. They tell you when it'll be ready. Or you can call to order, or order in person. They have a waiting area. And the food never takes too long to come out. Easy to find free street parking in the area. One my favorite thing about Manchu is the staff. They really make you feel like family when you stop by. They're so warm and welcoming.

This is my spot! They are also always consistently busy when I do go. The salad is amazing. The chicken wings always hit. This is a neighborhood staple. If you know you know.

I was so excited when I realized there was a Manchu in Richmond! I haven't been to Nola in a few years and this was one of my must haves whenever I visited so this was a pleasant surprise. The food is hot and fresh, decent portion sizes, affordable, and the same quality as their family location in New Orleans!

Can't believe we found real NOLA style eats in RVA! This spot is sooo good and definitely a hidden gem. The chicken wings were super well seasoned and the shrimp poboy was the best I've had outside of New Orleans. The portions are also incredible for the price and top of that, the service was so warm and welcoming. 10s are all around, we will definitely be back!

Top notch service!!! Very friendly and uses each customer's name!!! I ordered the crowd pleaser with wings & butterfly shrimp with double fried rice. I got the mambo sauce and sou garlic sauce. This is not a dine in establishment but there are seats to wait for your food. When on this side of town again, this will be my stop!!

Manchu is the best chicken spot in Richmond, to me, hands down. The seasoning on the chicken is so perfect, it literally needs nothing, no hot sauce, no NOTHING! Service is always 10/10, the owner usually works the register! HOW MANY OWNERS STILL IN THE ACTUAL FIELD?? We love that! He's loved by his community as well. Manchu is a grab and go with no where to sit and eat on the inside. However you'll quickly realize everyone makes it to their car and begins to eat there in the parking lot because it's THAT DELICIOUS. I've been visiting Manchu for years now, every time I go to Richmond, I stop at Manchu for this exact meal. Go try this out next time you're in the area.

This was our first stop in town off the airport, I was craving fried chicken and this shop showed up online. We pulled up to the parking lot and people were eating wings outside the shop! Which meant to me that people could not wait for go home and eat it! First walked in and was greeted by the owner Marvin, he was so nice and all around had good vibes. We got the chicken banh mi sandwiches and wings with the mambo sauce! Once I got to my car, we DEVOUR those wings! Crispy and flavorful, had me licking my fingers after! Good people serving up good food.

I would visit again just for the beignets!!! Gave me a taste of my other home. Glad I got rice and a salad made a good balance meal without having a bunch of fried foods. Hoping to try the shrimp or shrimppoboy next time!! Kind staff and cute inside.

Once again, Manchu does not miss. Shrimp was overflowing, perfectly seasoned and fried and the aioli was fire. Never a bad meal here. Customer service is also always top tier!

We love Manchu, it's affordable and delicious. You get plenty of food to feed the family all for a great price. The service is quick and the workers/owners are always really nice and helpful. We only order carry out and have never had an issue. PLUS the fried chicken is the best I've had in Richmond. u Manchu
