What a delight! It was a cold winter’s night as we walked briskly along the streets of Old Town Alexandria. Coming into this charming, warm restaurant was a very welcome change. The decor is lovely, the service very good and the food is tasty. We were very happy with our whole meal. It is both kid friendly and a fun hangout for adults, which is hard to accomplish. We recommend going for a nice dinner or just a drink at their inviting bar.

Fab brunch in the old Fire Station in Alexandria. Bit pricey but the food is delicious. Highly recommend the hash. Good bottomless coffee too. We turned up without a reservation, but most other good places in town you needed to book. Fab selection of beers too.

This place is amazing, our new go-to place when guests come into town. One of the few places in old town Alexandria that has not fallen into the trap of mediocrity due to the high volume of visitors (like the majority of the restaurants in old town unfortunately).

Fun atmosphere and delicious food. Make sure to ask to sit in the enclosed patio, and enjoy the exposed brick walls and old decor. The prices are on the pricier side, but the food was great. Definitely get the melted jack cheese as an appetizer.

The restaurant is tucked on quiet street in Old Town. The atmosphere is unique in that each space creates a different ambiance and feeling. The room we dined in had low romantic lightning and brick walls that they gave the feel of historical nostalgia. The menu is limited in choices, we kept flipping it over thinking there were more options. However, hubby and I really enjoyed our food. Order the steak frites and cast iron shrimp with a side of spinach. The pork ribs are tasteful but come hungry because the portion is a nice size. Some at the table said their meal could benefit from a little more seasoning but overall everyone was pleased. Just be sure not to go over board on the honey biscuits, they were absolutely delicious. I am married to a beer lover and he was impressed with the selection of craft beers. We will definitely be going back for a beer and quick bite.

We visited this place late on a Sunday, they had the bar menu available for food. Great variety of drinks; we ordered the Firehouse burger which came with cheese, bacon, garlic aioli and BLT, it was a decent burger specially for a late night menu, it didn’t have a lot of flavor but it wasn’t bad. The service was great and order came out fast.

Being new to this state and city, my friends and I hastily chose this place and without much research because we expected something very casual. Upon entering, I felt a little (ok a lot) underdressed but no one made us feel that way. VERY nice visually. The complimentary biscuits and honey were delicious. Two orders of beef bourguignon and one steak frites were crowd pleasers. Calamari for appetizer. No room for dessert. Loved it but next time I’m dressing up a little!

The place is beautiful. I really appreciate a bartender who make me another cocktail cause it was too strong for me and didn’t charge again. The only thing I didn’t like too much was a burger. Kind of tasteless. But the mussels were delicious

Always good, and pretty cheap during happy hour! Small but well-curated selection of beers. Great oysters, for $1 each during happy hour! Good food otherwise at more normal prices.
