I stopped by for the first time today and my experience was so personal and extraordinary. I had the privilege of meeting the owner Barbara. I walked in with the goal of getting a quick lunch and opted for the white chili and cornbread, which was outstanding! While waiting for my chili, I mentioned to Barbara that one of these days I will have to try their gelato. She then took the time to showcase samples of several of their options and YUM! I will be back. This place is a real gem. I highly recommend checking it out.
Hope my Richmond area friends will eat at Stoplight. After 2 visits I plan to be a regular whenever I'm in town. Last night Chef Barbara greeted me personally. When I reached out to shake her hand, she "elbow bumped" instead because she was wearing gloves for handling food. I followed her recommendation to eat potato soup and the Mozzarella-Pesto sandwich topped with sliced chicken. Both were truly gourmet and delicious. The gelato is made on-site while you dine. The "gelato chef" is also a Computer Science major at VCU. He loves his job because "I enjoy seeing the expressions on peoples faces when they eat the gelato I created." Needless to say, the gelato was outstanding. The café and restrooms are immaculate! You are missing a treat if you don't go to the Stoplight Gelato Café.
The owner, Barbara, is the nicest, loveliest woman you will ever meet! She and her staff go above and beyond to make sure their customers have a wonderful experience. The cafe is adorable and the gelato is amazing (plus they always have some interesting, unique flavor options on the menu and they change frequently so there's always something new to try). Can't wait to go back to try their tomato soup and pizza!
