“ I tried the chicken and waffles for the father's day promo they had and WOW. This place is extremely underrated!!! I rarely feel the need to write reviews unless I have strong opinions and Red Indigo well deserves 5 stars. The fried chicken was perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside and tender inside. The waffles were light and fluffy-heavenly with maple syrup. I WILL be returning!!! I also usually check the Henrico food inspection website before ordering and this place is spotless! Great job!! ”
“ Best breakfasts in Richmond! Couldn’t wait for them to open back up. Their pancakes are so good! ”
“ Kept seeing this location on Uber Eats. Decided to finally give it a try. All I have to say is WOW! I can't believe with this being a health spot, just like a spot that became a staple for me in Petersburg, this food taste like someone knows how to seasonal their food. It was worth every dollar and penny spent even being delivery and I will be either visiting in person or making another order soon. Everything from the food to the drinks, even due to me being at work, when it got cold, fresh food never stops tasting good and it was the BEST EVER! Keep up the good work, don't change on me as I now found another #1 spot for me to word of mouth frequent! ”
“ Yes great place to order from food was still hot and I went with DoorDash so Just imagine you picking your own food up it’ll be just as hotter it was wonderful will order again ”
“ I have been to many famous breakfast restaurants with hours of waiting time, but the Breakfast Bowl from RVA Cafe beats all of them. It was very simple, but made fresh with perfect execution. The place is small with few tables, but very clean and cozy. Owner/chef Daquan made the Breakfast Bowl himself and all other people’s orders. He scrambled the egg and cheese in a small sauce pan, cooked the meat in a separate sauce pan on the other burner. Because I ordered it to go, he stored the biscuit, scrambled egg with cheese in a bowl, and kept the chopped ham and gravy in two other bowls. The presentation might not look as nice as if it was served at the restaurant, but every bite was flavorful. Truly enjoyed the simple breakfast. Cannot wait to try their other items from the menu. ”
“ Tried here for the first time today through door dash. It took longer (what can I expect it was Sunday at noon I know I am not the only one ordering) but ohhhh my stars was it worth the wait!! The croissant French toast was amazing and will forever alter how I eat French toast. The sausage gravy was perfection!!! I haven’t had gravy that good in probably a decade!!! Will definitely order again and again!!! ”
“ Really enjoyed everything we ordered!! Chicken and waffles, sausage gravy, and french toast were exceptional. Short wait and the set up of the joint kitchens is a cool concept. Would recommend!! ”
“ This is magnificent. This is my first time trying chicken and waffles together. It has always been a weird combination to me but now it definitely is one of my favorites. The sweetness mixed with that crunchy chicken was a great mixtures that changes tantalizes your tongue. Waffle was also great. Just try it and you will get it. ”
