West Coast Provisions

My husband and I came here for Valentine's Day dinner. We ordered the mussels as our appetizer, they were just okay. For our entrees we both got the whole branzino. The fish was delicious! It had great flavor and didn't need any additional seasoning. I do wish that they weren't stuffed with limes as baked limes do give a slightly bitter flavor, but they didn't impact the flavor too much. The aligot potatoes were definitely the superior side. Creamy and cheesy without the Swiss cheese being too overpowering. Loved them! We also had the Berry Mule and an amaretto sour for drinks. Both were also delicious.We will definitely be back!

Enjoyed an early dinner/snack at West Coast this weekend and really liked our time there. The service was great - our server was so friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. We ordered an array of cocktails and mocktails (which were delish), along with a few sushi rolls, a burger, oysters, and some apps. The sushi rolls were pretty standard, but still good. We had truffle fries (okay), edamame with a great sweet chili sauce, and a crab dish. The food and drinks were pretty good with the oysters being the best, and the burger was delicious as well per our party. For the price, it was a decent amount of food and the restaurant was quite busy. Would go again!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Richmond. The service is impeccable every single time, and the food is delicious no matter what you get. The atmosphere is modern and inviting and relatively quiet. It is a great date night spot, or even just a random week day dinner spot. My only critique is the crab cake- it has a strange aftertaste and is shredded crab, not lump. Disclaimer: I was raised in Baltimore, Maryland so I may be a bit particular with crab cakes. Their oysters, scallops, fish entrees, burger, octopus appetizer, sushi rolls, etc are all very good.

I really am torn on this review. I would give 3.5 stars, but rounded down this time bc of the disappointments. The restaurant is very pretty and clean, but SUPER loud! We were a large party and I had a difficult time even hearing the person next to me. Definitely not an intimate place, nor a large party place when it comes to atmosphere. I want to acknowledge the bar menu has cocktails, which were appreciated! The lavender lemonade cocktail was delicious and refreshing! All of the cocktails were good as well. The food was good for the most part. We started with the seafood plate. I had never had raw clams before and they were actually really tasty. The oysters and shrimp were large and seemed quite fresh. The charcuterie plate was also quite good. The bread was actually the surprise, especially the butter served with it! So very good. We tried all sorts of meals. The curry wasn't quite curry, but wasn't bad. Just not what was expected. The cioppino had a delicious broth! Though some of the fish and seafood was overcooked. Those who had the mahi said it was very good. The scallops were beautiful and tasty, though the person who ate them said the pickled peaches were a tad strange. Overall it seemed those who got simply prepared fish were the most pleased. They did a great job of having all the food out to the table at the same time, which is a feat for a large party. The dessert menu is limited, but the lava cake and mint chip ice cream was quite tasty, even if there wanted actually lava to ooze when the cake was cut into. The service is where it really falls down. As I mentioned, we were a large party (12), and we had one junior server. When he arrived he did not introduce himself, no big deal, but a miss. He did not check in on us frequently and our plates and empty appetizer serving dishes, empty glasses, etc were not cleared regularly. This is a problem with a large party. When the wine was delivered to the table it wasn't opened for us, luckily it was twist top so we didn't have to wait for a corkscrew, but it has been a very very long time since I had wine not poured in a restaurant....maybe this is the first time I have experienced this actually. On the positive, nobody's orders were inaccurate. As mentioned. I was torn on the star rating, but ultimately for the price I expect a bit more in the service department. I might go back if someone asks me, but I won't be suggesting this as a starting place when selecting restaurants.

This was my second time here and it was just as good as the first! Our server was kind and attentive. The food is delicious, comes out quick and hot. They have a mocha espresso martini which is a fun twist to the regular espresso martini! The inside is beautiful, dimly lit and there's patio seating as well which is nice for a cool summer night!

Had dinner here the other night with my ladies dinner group. I had never been here before so I was looking forward to giving it a try. I saw a number of interesting things on the menu. I decided to try a couple of things - the fried oysters (I can never resist) and the crunchy roll as my dinner. I was very happy with my choices, especially the oysters. Wonderfully breaded and beautifully fried, they came served on top of a corn relish/salad that included pickled red onions. Such an incredible combination of flavors. The crunchy roll was nice too. Others in my party ordered from all over the menu. Everyone seemed happy with their choices too, including a few signature cocktails. Service was friendly and helpful but a tad slow. We were a large party and the place was absolutely jammed packed, even on a freezing cold Wednesday night. So nothing off-putting enough for me not to return.

Espresso martini were the best ones I have had. The first one I could tell sat a little bit at the bar. But the next was so smooth and foamy! They were a perfect mix of alcohol, espresso and cream! We got a couple apps like oysters, calamari, and truffle fries! Then did a sushi roll for dinner. Food was so yummy and service was great! We def stayed for a bit enjoying kidless time and the yummy drinks

A nice option for date night or a special occasion. I've been here for private parties, larger groups, and small ones and the service is consistently great. Everything I've had to eat and drink is pretty good, though some of the entrees are a bit small for the price. Reservations can be made on OpenTable.

After getting lazer hair.... I decided to stroll around this plazaI was greated by this place which was very welcoming reminded me of dining at a beach house and the staff is very sweet, the place overall smells great and is very clean! The food was the reason I will be returning that's for sure if I can describe it with one word. * FRESH *

Had a great lunch here this week! It was really quiet in the restaurant, there were only a few people there, but my meal was absolutely delicious. I ordered the arugula salad with grilled chicken. The chicken was actually perfectly cooked, wasn't dry at all, and the salad itself was fantastic! It had edamame, sunchoke chips, oranges, and a delicious miso maple vinaigrette. Really well balanced :) only taking off one star: we had ordered a few other things that were forgotten about and our waiter was constantly checking in (I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way and I'm sure it gets boring when there aren't many people to attend to) But there's no reason to check in on a table every five minutes unless you have a really large party. besides that, would definitely come back! Will try happy hour or sitting at the bar next time
