There are unique creations such as the Breakfast pizza, which boasts two over-easy eggs, sausage bits, onions and plenty of cheese. They are also known for their delectable lasagna, which is also drenched in the red sauce and creamy ricotta cheese. Known as one of the absolute best takeout places in Richmond, 8 1/2 is a must-visit - although the restaurant is a bit on the smaller side, the food more than makes up for it.
