European Taste is such a wonderful place. Thoughtful, hospitable, welcoming owners that treat you like family. The fresh bread was delicious and yeasty. Everyone enjoyed all of their meals and we were able to take some tiramisu home with us. It was my son’s birthday and though they are usually closed on Sundays, they were celebrating the Spring season and allowed us to join. We enjoyed our time and encourage others to go try this little gem. I got the Hungarian goulash spicy and it was so rustic and delicious.

The best European restaurant that I've ever tried. We got sarmale and it was so delicious and it tastes like heart made. Mici is Romanian sausage is my favorite, very yummy and juicy . goulash stew also amazing. The broth is so rich and flavorful in my mount. The house rolls are so fresh and soft. The best part is the services. It's the family own so the owner provides us the amazing services and super friendly. They will treat you and make you feel like you are their family. I'm so impressed and can't wait to go back again. Thank you for wonderful services and good food

★★★★☆ 4.0 William Scheil · Mar 2026

I love the little restaurant. Suggest smaller portions and larger amounts of specialty ingredients, such as more mushrooms in chicken Marsala.. Bread or rolls made in house would enhance the cuisine. Anyone who can do pastry as fine as yours could work up some sort of bread included with entree. We took desserts to our friends and they loved it. Bottom line is we love your place.

What a wonderful dining experience not to be missed. Quaint and quiet atmosphere and the food is delicious. The menu selections are terrific, no matter what European Taste you desire, I bet you will find it here. The owners and chef often come out to be sure you're enjoying your dinner and they are always available for a recommendation you are sure to enjoy. Almost hate giving such a flavorful review because I may not have a seat when everyone learns how great their restaurant is.

The European Restaurant in Richmond’s West End is truly a hidden gem and one of those rare places that keeps you coming back year after year. I’ve been dining here since they first opened, and the quality, care, and heart behind this restaurant have never wavered. It’s a beautiful, family-run spot owned by a Romanian couple who genuinely bring the taste of Romania to Richmond. Chef Luigi, the wife and culinary powerhouse, works magic in that small kitchen—preparing everything from scratch on her own. You can taste the love, tradition, and effort in every dish. Her husband Adrian runs the front of house with warmth and grace (and if you listen closely, you’ll even hear him jumping in to wash dishes when needed). That’s the kind of place this is—everyone pitches in, and it shows. I’ll neve
