This restaurant has been around Midlothian for a long time. My kids love to go because the chef seats you around a huge grill and does fire tricks while he cooks your customized food! Also a menu-only meal is available.

A little more expensive, but you will love the view on the water and Sunday Park is lovely with a boardwalk, and nearby a playground, and easy-walking trails, with benches for just lingering. All the food I have had here is yummy. Sometimes live music. There is also one of these at Rocket's Landing on the north side of the James River.
