1. Stella’s: Mushroom Saganaki
1012 Lafayette St, Richmond, VA 23221

Saganaki is a badass Greek cheese dish, served aflame straight to your table and accompanied with fresh out the oven pita bread. For the committed cheese enthusiast, maximize your palate with a feta-covered Greek salad or side of spanakopita.
2. Siné Irish Pub and Restaurant: Beer Cheese and Pretzels

These are no laughable bar pretzels. Indeed, Siné’s cheddar dip is housemade with Smithwick’s Ale, creating a hoppy undertone. Served with soft and chewy baked pretzels, this appetizer is truly a match made in heaven.
3. MARTIN’s Food Markets: Ukrop’s Triple Cheese Macaroni and Cheese
Locations Across Richmond

Amongst other greats like the decadent Rainbow Cookie and fluffy Whitehouse Roll, Ukrop’s prepared mac-n-cheese may very well be the only reason one would set foot into a Martin’s. And with the recent selling, you may need to stock up your fridge and freezer before these bad boys can only be found on eBay.
4. City Dogs: Cincinnatti Dog
1309 W Main St, Richmond, VA 23220 OR 1316 E Cary St, Richmond, VA 23219
Website | Facebook | Photo: Yelp
Sweet City Dogs, how you are so often overlooked before the hour of 1AM. After a big night out, any cheese lover’s dream would be a chili and shredded cheese covered hot dog. Bonus points for a side order of cheese fries as well!
5. Pasture: Pimento Cheese and Ritz

Introducing Pasture’s pimento into your life can be dangerous as no other cheese may measure up. The classic combo with Ritz is a menu staple, but the pimento is also featured in rotating lunch and dinner specials.
6. Bottoms Up Pizza: Bread Tracks
1700 Dock St, Richmond, VA 23223
Website | Facebook | Twitter | Photo: FB
These bread tracks seem like a simple appetizer, but the unassuming white sauce’s combination of parmesan, olive oil, basil, pine nuts, and minced garlic atop Bottoms Up’s famous crust will instantly make you a lifelong fan.
7. Can Can Brasserie: Onion Soup Gratinée
3120 W Cary St, Richmond, VA 23221
Website | Facebook | Twitter | Photo: FB
The French Onion Soup at Can Can is sincerely delicious… but we know you came for the gratinée.
8. The Cask Cafe: Cheese Plate
206 S. Robinson St., Richmond, VA 23220
Website | Facebook | Twitter | Photo: FB
Cambozola, Danish blue, smoked gouda, Welsh cheddar, goat brie… the Cask Cafe is truly a dairy haven. Their plates can also be combined with various sausages and sides, but is that really necessary?
9. The Tobacco Company: Spinach and Artichoke Dip
1201 E Cary St, Richmond, VA 23219
Website | Facebook | Twitter | Photo: FB
The blend of fontina, mozzarella, cream cheese, and parmesan combined with chopped spinach and artichokes is delicious enough to make you forget your main course.
10. Home Sweet Home: Entire Menu
3433 W Cary St, Richmond, VA 23221
Website | Facebook | Photo: FB
At a gourmet grilled cheese restaurant, ordering a cheesy delight is truly a toss up. Try the Bountygate – smoke ham, fontina and giardiniera, Hanover tomatoes, and a fried egg – or the Chesapeake – crab dip, spinach, and sharp cheddar – or the Mac and Me – house made mac and cheese with smoked pork barbecue – or take it easy and just order the entire menu.
