I had a pretty bad experience with them at Canal Walk Lofts. Maintenance is fantastic over there, but the office team was constantly turning over and seemed to be run by people who have no understanding of multi-family prop management.

From pre-lease to move out, I dealt with some of the most incompetent leasing agents and PMs I've ever experienced... coming from someone that has been dealing with that industry professionally for years.

I think it depends on the property managers and complex itself. I’m in a Main St Realty complex and have had absolutely no issues. Maintenance is timely and respectful (and some friendly hilarious guys), office staff is responsive, if something weird happens like nonstop fire alarms, they disclose what happened mechanically to cause the issue. I’ve asked maintenance to give me a heads up on filter changes, etc. as my cat gets spooked easily. Had a broken freezer that they worked through a series of repairs on, quietly, as I was WFH and in a meeting during the repair.

Though fully acknowledging everyone’s experience with property management is different - somehow I hit the jackpot.

I went there quite a few times during the years I lived in Sandston. It's made to order and really good but because it's freshly cooked it can be really greasy. The fries and onion rings are good too.

I'm not sure how true to original any Golden Skillet around is. Just looking at their menus, they're all different. I don't remember what OG Golden Skillet menus were so just keep that in mind.

I have fond memories of crushing cups of mashed potatoes and gravy from the one on Nansemond when I was a baby. It is now [checks notes] a dentist's office!
