I am always up for PHO, but I haven't tried the one on staples mill...
I always go to the one on Horsepen or to Mekong.
How about O'Charleys?
Da Rever!

Oh, sure, dump it on me. O'Charleys is okay, I guess..but can't we come up with something a little less generic? Do you guys like Japanese? Sakura in the Babys-R-Us parking lot is almost NEVER busy, and I'll bet they'd love to have a big group come in. Depending on how hungry everyone was, we could even do a hibachi table.

Heck if anyone has any kids to bring we could go to Chuckie Cheese. BTW, it's the CarMax Marketing Department's fault you can't go in to that CC unless you have a kid now- we kinda took it over for a coworker's goodbye party two years ago. Oops.

But, from a quality stand point...I am not too thrilled with them.
But, what you say about the lot and parking is right on the money.
And I would love to see CHIRORX8 go through the ball crawl at Chucky Cheese.

Weeell, you also have to understand I used to live in Japan for a while and my girlfriend is Japanese...so my taste buds are realy sensitive to poor quality Japanese food.
Akida is not much better.... I would say for Richmond if you want good Japanese food you have to go to either KOBE or HANAZUSHI..
Wich aint fantanstic but respectable.

Good thing about Mekong is there is a big parking lot in the back so we can hang out at the cars. Also they have capacity for large groups of people.
Oh, and the food is good.

I am from NY and I used to go to Japanese resturaunts and Ramen shops all the time, and it was authentic.
Richmond just doesn't have the pouplation.
But, if you guys wanna come to my place I will be more than happy to have all of you come over. My girl can make sushi.
Pleanty of parking too.
Tobbaco Row is a nice place to throw a party!
