Our large group experience at Bottom's Up was fantastic! While in town for a volleyball tournament, our friend who is a Richmond native highly recommended this restaurant. My initial conversation with Troy was welcoming and accommodating. He made space for our group of 20 and offered some incredible options for a large party. Nicole handled everything with ease and patience. The pizza, salads, and wings were loved by all. It was a perfect evening and the setting allowed for some great team bonding. Highly recommended this restaurant and will be stopping by again the next time we are in town.

I have ordered from this place on several occasions but have never eaten inside until now. What seems to be a hole-in-the-wall joint is cool--small, quaint, dining area with a full bar. The staff is very nice from the moment you walk in the door. In the past, I have enjoyed the Shrimp & Crab Alfredo pasta and different versions of pizza, and they were all delicious. The menu has several options available, so I went with the cheeseburger. Pretty good. Good size, flavor, and a good portion of fries. I will visit more often.

The pizza here is the absolute best! I did just realize the pizza dough has egg in it which for whatever reason took me by surprise and I happen to be allergic. I mean, of course it has egg because the crust is incredible and it's just this fluffy deliciousness. Anyway, I went there this past Friday and had the worst reaction ever, not being able to breathe and relying heavily on my inhaler that's when I discovered the egg . I've had plenty amazing pizzas without egg in the crust so I guess that's why I was surprised and now I'm just so sad I can't eat their pizza anymore. I'm hoping one day they'll make dough without egg as an option on their menu. Otherwise, definitely check out Bottoms Up!! The ambiance is my fave and the restaurant is super cute and comfy. Most of everyone seems to enjoy their job and are super friendly. I love going there because of that as well.

After over 20 years away, I found myself working next door to Bottoms Up Pizza, so I decided to drop in. The pizza, particularly the weekly special--buffalo chicken--was amazing. The crust stood out with its thick, buttery texture, providing a satisfying base for the generous toppings. A perfect amount of sauce and cheese complemented the spicy buffalo chicken, ensuring each bite was truly enjoyable. Service was impressively friendly, enhancing the welcoming atmosphere. It's important to note that each slice is made to order, so it does take a bit of time to come out, but the wait is worth it. Each slice is substantial, essentially the size of two large slices from a typical chain pizza place, ensuring you'll leave satisfied. While the interior might not be fancy, Bottoms Up Pizza is perfect for a lunch break or a late-night pizza craving. It's a spot that delivers on quality rather than pretentious ambiance, making it a must-visit for pizza lovers looking for something beyond the ordinary.

Sister brought me here before dropping me off at RIC. Good gluten free pizza. Only one that didn't spark a hypoglycemia episode. GF crusts are generally glucose nightmares for me (I don't have a stomach and eat GF with my celiac sister). Good service. Hard to find parking. Cool ambiance. Would like to try non GF pizza one day :)

Man.... PHENOMENAL pizza!! We're new to the area and our friends wanted to introduce us to the canal walk and Bottoms Up. So glad they did! We ordered sourdough thick crust pizzas - the Meat Master and the Bottoms Up Loaded. The crust was amazing and the toppings were fresh and plentiful. (Sorry, I was so hungry and enticed that I forgot to take pics of the pies) The pizzas weren't fast but I appreciated the care and quality. It was evident and worth the wait. Other patrons were fussy due to the "slow" kitchen and our server along with two others were a bit beat down but honestly , they provided great service with a smile and care for us as the customer. Our server, Ana was rockstar. 5 star service. She was better than great in our opinion. Thanks for a great experience, Ana! Last thing.. the ambience was great. It's located in the Shockoe Bottom near downtown Richmond and the building was full of that early Industrial Revolution vibe. The live jazz was great! The ButterBean Jazz Quartet (live from 6-8:30 every Sunday evening) was talented and the Jazz was as tasty as the food offered. All said, we'll be back again and again!

It's not your traditional pizza. Not that there is a "Richmond-style" pizza. Let's just say that Bottoms Up is unique for Richmond. My most recent visit was consistent with previous ones. The service is good, but the kitchen a little slow. The pizzas, as described elsewhere, are bready but with generous toppings. I had a slice of the Meat Master (topped with ground beef, Italian sausage, ham, and pepperoni) and it made a tremendous lunch. I hope to return soon for after-work, to enjoy a leisurely pizza feast and a few adult beverages.
