About Us
The Boathouse at Rocketts Landing has brought award-winning dining to the banks of the James River. The restaurant occupies the top floor of the recently restored Power Plant building, which once provided electricity for Richmond's fleet of trolley cars. Like its sister location, The Boathouse at Sunday Park in Midlothian, this new offering at Rocketts Landing specializes in seafood as well as its signature wood-stone oven Napoletana-style pizza. With indoor and outdoor dining, offering stunning views of the river and city skyline, The Boathouse at Rocketts Landing promises a truly one-of-a-kind, waterside dining experience never before available in Richmond.
