I have now had the pleasure of dining here about a dozen times. It is near my home...but the reason I keep coming back is the very best real cheeseburger in Richmond. I know they have other good stuff on the menu...but so far all I have had is the burger with cheddar and sweet potato fries, crispy. Killer. Consistent...every time. But I also like the place because the people who work there are genuinely friendly and professional.

I don’t understand the bad reviews on here for the Backyard Grill. We went this evening and the service and food was great! Had heard about this place on the radio and we decided to drive the 15 miles across the city to try it. The waiter and kitchen staff was very fast and friendly and very attentive. My fiancé even said the waiter was very cute...the food came quick and was delicious, we would do the drive to go again sometime. Try it!

Was finally able to go here, after hearing about it for so long from so many friends. Had the Katz sandwich and shared a full rack of ribs with my friend. Delicious! Thoroughly pleased and impressed! Sat at the bar, got excellent, attentive service and plenty for the money.
