The Meatball & Wine Bar

Italian$$

If queuing for comfort food somehow negates the comfort factor, you wouldn’t know it at this hotspot, where hour-long waits at peak time are not uncommon. For meatballs? Well, yes – with a pun-heavy, choose-your-own-adventure menu: balls of quality pork, beef, chicken, fish or veg, sitting on a carb of your choosing (polenta, pasta, smashed spuds) and dressed with sauce (trad tomato, creamy, or zesty salsa verde). Charcuterie or cheese boards complement a glass of perky Italian red, a blackboard offers specials (say, spiced lamb balls on cous cous). There are snacky balls, balls in buns and breakfast balls too. Also in Richmond.
