Can Can Brasserie

Can Can Brasserie “La vie est belle, voila le quadrille” – Life is beautiful, here comes the Cancan! Can Can is a French brasserie and bakery in Cary Court Shopping Center.
(3218)

Situated in the eastern wing of Richmond’s oldest operating shopping center, Can Can was constructed to look and feel as if it has been lifted from the left bank of Paris (circa 1900) and dropped into the heart of Carytown. The idea for the restaurant derives from the classic notions of brasserie, which originally indicated an establishment that served beer, but grew to reflect grand café restaurants specializing in traditionally inspired French foods that can be cooked quickly. With seating for over 140 in the main dining room, an Art Nouveau inspired private dining room that seats up to 60 guests or over 100 for cocktails, and a full-service bakery and pastry kitchen supplying all of its breads, pastries, and desserts, the restaurant’s versatility should provide the area an array of options and events. Can Can provides nonstop service morning, noon, and night and looks to give the local neighborhood, businesses, and Richmond visitors, a home away from home, an office away from the office, a place of refuge, or a stage for celebrating with friends.

Piper was an exceptional server, as were the folks that brought our food to the table. Always feel special at CanCan and it continues to be my FAVORITE place to eat in Richmond. Food delicious. Ambience top notch. 10 stars.”-- OpenTable review, 9/9/2026

The art of the cocktail, with a little flair.

Our new cocktail menu has arrived, bringing fresh flavors and a few new favorites to the bar. Among them is the the Matchmaker: velvety, bright, and refined, with Patrón Añejo, Galliano, matcha and lemon.

Stay for dinner, linger over another round, and let the evening unfold at its own pace.

”What a fantastic Carytown gem! This is the steak sandwich, fries were perfectly cooked, the steak sandwich was phenomenal! Cheese, fresh lettuce, soft sourdough. I also got the bread service included 5 types of freshly baked bread and house made butter! To die for! We tried the French onion soup as one must and it also did not disappoint, smothered in gooey melted cheese, loaded with onion and croutons as it should be. To finish the meal was marjolaine, what a unique experience! Loaded with tiered flavors and textures that all complemented each other like nothing I've previously experienced. I'd be remiss if I failed to mention Laticia's exceptional service! Do yourself the treat and come try this place out!” --Yelp Review, 8/21/2026

”Delicious meal, excellent service! Despite being very busy as is to be expected, our brunch reservation was easily accommodated and our food was served in a timely manner. Everything was delicious and fresh. Patrick was an excellent server, never leaving us wondering when he’d be back and prompt with all of our requests. Great atmosphere, beautiful restaurant! Looking forward to going back.”-- Google review, 8/30/2026

”We recently went to Can Can for dinner for the first time. I'd been many times for breakfast and brunch, but always wanted to go for dinner. We made a 6pm reservation on a Friday. We walked in about 10 minutes early and were seated immediately, near the front windows.

We ordered drinks, which came out quickly, and the steak tartare, which came shortly after. It was tasty, as was the baguette that it was served with. We were also pleasantly surprised at how fast our meals came out after that. For our entrees, my bf got the chicken soirée, which was very good, and I ordered the boeuf bourguignon. The mashed potatoes were so fluffy and the beef was very tender. We then ordered dessert- the marjolaine was so decadent and delicious.

Service by Allison was polite and friendly and the restaurant has such a warm atmosphere. We really enjoyed our meal and look forward to returning!”-- Yelp review, 8/22/2026
