Edo's is one of my favorite places in Richmond. It is always packed, so try to either call ahead, make reservations, or try to grab a seat at the bar.
All of their dishes are great and portions are pretty large. I always end up taking some leftovers home.
There's a good chance you'll be shoulder to shoulder with the table next to you, but that's part of the vibe. Overall it's a really cool "hidden" setting. Highly recommend!

One of many Lamplighter locations, this is the original and my favorite. They have delicious coffee and teas, as well as amazing breakfast & lunch sandwiches. Great patio for groups. Dog friendly. Easy access with stroller. Can get a little busy on nice days, but worth the wait.
