If Conch Republic Rocketts is anything like its neighbor, The Boathouse Richmond, Rocketts Landing is developing into an upscale dining mecca along the James River. See the article from Richmond.com or this information from Style Weekly:
Best ways to arrive at Conch Republic Rocketts, now open on the James River at Rocketts Landing: by boat, moored in one of the adjacent slips, or by bicycle fresh off the Capital Trail. The deck-with-a-restaurant project of Key West-loving owner Bob Cox (Metro Grill, Curbside) doubles the number of dining options in that neighborhood. It’s downriver from the Boathouse, aiming for a more casual crowd with a taste for sunsets and drinking.
Grits and grillades, coconut grouper, gator wraps, and naturally, conch fritters, are menu ballast, with nightly dinner and bar hours now, and by next month, lunch and brunch service. With a deck that holds 80 and an experienced operator doing his dream gig, expect this one to be a party scene. 226-6242.
