Chef Michael Hall’s long-awaited restaurant, Spoonbread Bistro, will open on Tuesday, Sept. 20, starting at 5 p.m., at 2526 Floyd Ave., the former Jorge’s Cantina space. Lunch will begin on Sept. 25 at 11 a.m., and Sunday brunch will added that weekend.

You’ll find find the menu full of Hall’s signature Southern and French-influenced fare.

Formerly of M Bistro and Wine Bar, Hall became executive chef at the 2300 Club after its closure, but you had to be a member to experience a meal there.

“Customers have come up to me since M closed and told me how much they missed my food and that was the motivation for me to enter into this venture, because I do believe that we offer something special on the Richmond culinary scene,” Hall said in a news release in May announcing the new restaurant.

Hours: Dinner only Sept. 20-24, Tuesday-Thursday, 5 p.m.-10 p.m.; Friday and Saturday open until 11 p.m. Lunch begins the week of Sept. 25, Monday-Saturday from 11 a.m.-2 pm.; Sunday brunch from 11 a.m.-3 p.m.
