Azurro
I have eaten once at Azurro, off River Road in Richmond. I recall taking my mother there for dinner (yet, she paid), and finding a hair in my creamy ravioli dish.
Four years later, it called me back, after reading in Style Weekly that it’s rated as one of Richmond’s top 50.
We were seated without reservation, outside. We sat, with menus, and water, for over 15 minutes. Everyone around us was receiving service and attention. We sat.
We left.
I am not sure what prompted this behavior. I went back to the front desk to complain, but the line was too long for Azurro to suck up any more of my time. The wait was both insulting and discouraging. The menu looked great, but I took my business elsewhere.

This is the third restaurant we had the left after being seated for tardy service. It happened in PF Chang in Stony Point and Ichiban on Ridgefield Road.
