Late night Richmond food (2am)
 

Hey guys. Figured you can give us some suggestions. My coworkers and I are not off til ~midnight and it’s difficult to find stuff after work to go eat and socialize. We used to be off an hour earlier which meant getting last call but nowadays it feels our options have dwindled.

We used to hit Matsuyama or Lotus but they aren’t open late enough anymore. Boston pizza is a mid option but the one on 3 road closed down now.

Lately we’ve been hitting up Big Way as it’s tasty and open late. Last night was Silver Tower. Then sometimes Denny’s or Great Canadian BrewPub but those are hot garbage.

There’s always #9 but we’d all prefer a more ‘individual’ ordering system instead of going the communal group ordering and figuring out how to split/share etc

Pretty much any food suggestion is welcome. Would love a ramen/pho/sushi place. Definitely want to stick to Richmond though.

And car just for content :p

I'm surprised #9 wouldn't let you guys do individual bills, esp when it is late night.

Bro you don't know about Tian Shi Fu yet? Skewers and noodles, last I checked open until 4am. Next to Moore's at RC

late night hot pot in this weather.... :notbad: gotta try this on sat

Ahh yes I forgot about hai di lao. I as a group theyve gone to tian shi fu but I haven’t yet. Skewers get pricey fast but as you said (and they agree) the rice and noodle dishes hit hard.

@red yeah man! 1am hot pot is awesome. I usually do around a $20 meal and I am stuffed from big way. I much prefer this style to the big shared hot pot. Just more fun to see how others make their bowls

How can you stay up so late. It’s 10:30pm now and I wanna die… I should have been in bed an hour ago.

im excited to try the 4 broth in one pot thing.

Some of us actually work for a living and get hungry :p now what sucks is working nights but still getting up for the preschool run everyday

If you are into Mexican food, I suggest Bandito's. Good burritos and a lively atmosphere. The separate area of the restaurant is for a dance floor and a DJ.

That sounds like a good time, but Richmond, VA?

Sorry, my bad. :facepalm:

Neptune Wonton Noodle house is also a favorite of mine for late night Chinese food in Richmond. -would say that the quality of food is mid. Decent.
Neptune has the OG vibe of a Hong Kong style cafe. They are open until 2am.

I was so confused when I saw his post and had to do a double take on the thread to confirm OP was asking about Richmond, BC. :concentrate::accepted:

ngl I got excited for a second and wondered why I never heard of this magical mexican place FeelsBadMan

What? Your post doesn't make sense. why did you recommend us a Mexican place in Richmond VA and then pivot to Chinese food when called out on it?

Damnit, we demand answers!!

Ban pastarocket :troll:

pastarocket is a bot!

It's my bad haha. -did not read the address correctly for the Mexican restaurant.

I pivot to the Chinese restaurant Neptune Noodle because some friends and I have gone to that place for late night food a few times.

-realized my mistake when I double checked the address for that Bandito's Lounge. :facepalm:


The Neptune Noodle restaurant is a recommendation to make up for the Mexican mess up.

If you guys are craving Mexican food, I do have a recommendation if you want it.

That Mexican restaurant is not in Richmond. It's in east Van. They close at 10pm for their business hours though.

^you can't write all that and not share what it is. Now I'm craving that Mexican food....

Maizal RMF. I highly recommend Maizal. RMF stands for Real Mexican Food. The owners stand by their restaurant name. The Mexican food is authentic.

https://maizalmsf.ca/

Maizal is located in the south Main area of east Van. I know that this Mexican place is legit because a Mexican buddy of mine, Jonathan, took me to Maizal last year.

The tacos at Maizal are delicious. Their beef torta (sandwiches) are also good. Big portions of beef in their torta.

Anyways, my buddy Jonathan explained to me that the tacos that he ate at Maizal are really good because he can tell from eating them that the taco shells, soft shell, are hand made. My buddy is from Guadalajara, Mexico so he can tell if the taco shells are hand made or not.

Very few Mexican restaurants offer hand made taco shells for their tacos these days.

Maizal's staff also offer free samples of their Hibiscus rose flower juice if you ask them for a sample.

^Thanks! I'm in that area often and will have to check it out when I need a bite.

Sorry but this response seems AI generated

And a Mexican named Jonathan? Nice try buddy, would have believed Juanathan more. :fullofwin:

As for Maizal, I think I ate takeout there during COVID, haven't been back since. But according to google it closes at 10 so not sure if that qualifies for "late night". I mean for me it does but I'm old now.

It’s also 8.50 for a taco. Pretty sure it’s one lousy taco at 8.50. What the fuck kinda pricing is that ?!? Banhmi are 8.50 and that’s a whole banhmi.

I kid you not. My buddy Jonathan Rios said that the tacos at Maizal are delicious.

I ate their ribeye, guacamole, and cilantro tacos along with a beef torta for lunch there. Chef’s kiss!

Hobz, I do not live in Richmond so I definitely do not know if there are any Mexican restaurants there.

The tacos are priced at $8.50 each because the taco shells are hand made. -worth the price in my opinion.

The only “Mexican” place that I went to for lunch in Richmond many years ago was at Richmond Centre. That place closed down a long time ago.

Taco Bell at the Richmond Centre food court hahaha.

Taco Bell is not even 1 percent of what Maizal is in terms of quality of food.
