Old Original Bookbinder's Seafood & Steakhouse

If you like surf and turf, this special-occasion spot in a historic building is the place to go

HOUSED IN THE 1901-ERA American Cigar Building on Richmond's Tobacco Row, this family-owned business has plenty of character inside and out, with its exposed beams and brick walls. The patio, which is draped in string lights and filled with plants in containers and hanging baskets, has a koi pond at its center. Other than the atmosphere, the headliners here are the choice cuts of meat and seafood, which can be served together, like in the Bookbinder's Steak and Crab, a petite filet mignon with a jumbo lump crab cake.
