“One of the newest cocktail bars on King street!This place is super cool and has a bit of a speakeasy vibe.We only got cocktails but they were all super good and unique. One of the bartenders, Andres, who was making our drinks used to work at a Michelin star bar and really showed it.He even made us custom cocktails when asked and was very nice to talk to.The atmosphere is very cute and very Instagrammable.The only thing is you have to use wifi because the bar is underground and there's no signal but other than that will definitely be going back.“
“Love this place! I come in all the time and get the fried rice, but the curry and pad thai are also excellent.Vegetarian options: Not every dish on the menu can be served without meat, but many can! Tofu is an option for lots of the dishes that would normally have meat, and many of the curries don't have meat either.“
“Quite a nice experience in Oldtown for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The service was prompt and our server was pleasant and attentive.The food was delicious and portions were sizeable. The only con for me was that it was fairly loud. Not a knock on the restaurant as there isn't much they could do about it, aside from reducing the number of tables. And I understand not doing that as the place is busy and more tables equals more business.Overall a nice place for lunch.“
“Alice is a nice place for girls night. The ambiance was lovely, low lighting and cute decor. There is a bar with seating for four. Based on other reviews, we made reservations to be on the safe side. It was a rainy Wednesday when we went so there was plenty of seating available. We were greeted and taken to our table immediately. We started with cocktails. The white rabbit is a tequila based cocktail and was quite refreshing. We also ordered the chicken wings and curry puffs as appetizers. We were not a fan of the wings but the curry puffs were amazing! For the entree, I ordered chicken pad thai was very authentic and topped with peanuts and fresh bean sprouts. I really enjoyed this flavorful dish. This is a very intimate spot and the entire staff was attentive to all of the guests. I plan on returning to try more food options and upscale cocktails. Note: There is no parking available in front of establishment. The nearest metered street parking is on S Columbus Street.“
“An experience like no other- a curated, intentional neighborhood bar that makes you feel you’re a local (even if, like me, you’re a guest). I will return the next time I’m in Alexandria, and would even make the trip from downtown just for this special place. The food and drinks were incredible, I can’t speak highly enough.“
“First time here in Downtown Alexandria. Service was excellent, fast and polite. Food was amazing. Offer over looked are the bathrooms. Very clean. Great decor and atmosphere. Would definitely eat here again. If you are in the area, stop by and try their food. You will not regret it.“
“Frrom the moment we stepped into The Majestic, we were enchanted by its charming ambiance and welcoming atmosphere. Every aspect of our dining experience, from the meticulously crafted appetizers to the exquisite entrees, exceeded our expectations. The stuffed dates and crab Rangoons were flavorful delights that left us craving more. My old fashioned cocktail was expertly mixed, complementing the succulent Filet mignon perfectly. Meanwhile, my wife savored every bite of the Majestic Burger paired with a delightful cocktail of her choice. Throughout the evening, the service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring our every need was met with warmth and professionalism. Without a doubt, The Majestic has earned its place as a culinary gem in Alexandria, VA. We eagerly look forward to our next visit to indulge in their exceptional offerings once again.“
“I was on the hunt for a dinner option and a nice ambience that would be different from all the places we have tried in old town. I can't even remember how I finally got to this restaurant, but I kept putting in dinner in Alexandria and boy was I oh so thrilled. First of all you step inside and by no means do you feel like you just came in from a strip mall or a strip mall parking lot. It is as nice if not nicer than some of the high end places in DC right now. Also, I have no idea how she is able to afford to pay her servers Whatever she is paying them because they are all so incredibly professional, kind, calm and engaging!!! They legitimately feel like one big family. I was excited that the chef and owner had routes from Louisiana and curious to see how that translated into the dishes. Nothing that we ordered was a disappointment. Everything exploded with flavor even the salad was a treat. The cocktails were really special as well, and this place is a A MUST visit if you are in the Alexandria area!“
“One of my favorite go to places in the county. The owner and her staff are professional and welcoming. A great location to go relax, watch sports, play board games, meet up with friends, etc.I strongly recommend this location if you are looking for a small location to just chill....Great addition to our Charles County Small Business Community.“
“Best Tex Mex restaurant in the Alexandria - Belle Haven area. This is my go to spot when I'm craving Tex Mex. Food: If you dine in, make sure to get the steak fajitas - you won't be disappointed. The fajitas come out sizzling out, and the steak is actually of great quality and comes topped with melted butter for an added taste. Recently, I've been binging their Birria Tacos which are very tasty, and comes with great sauces. Service: the service is absolutely fantastic. I was able to chat with the owner and he is a very down to earth and authentic himself, great to support our local small businesses! Ambience: It is very clean and they do a great job of spacing our guests when it's not peak hours. They play great music, and the main area can even get lively as the night progresses. If you search Mexican food in Alexandria, a few will come up that's highly rated - but trust me, 2 Jefes is at the top.“
“This place was the place serving food past 11 and I am so glad I came here. Customer service was good. Stayed downstairs due to a party going on upstairs. Food and drinks were very good.Ordered the:Grilled lamb burger: 9/10 I wish it had a little more of the yogurt sauceFries: seasoned well and fried just enough for a light crispChadwick’s reserve Manhattan: very good, do not get if not a fan of bitters“
“Absolutely amazing chili! I loved the Texas and Cincinnati, ultimately went with the Texas with beans. Adding their chili vinegar was a delicious touch!Loved it so much I bought two of their spice packs to make at home.I'm leaving tomorrow but wish I had come in here sooner!Vegetarian options: Vegetarian chili, excellent!“
“Kings Ransom was a cool cocktail bar. It’s upstairs and has a neat vibe. Wasn’t busy when we went. The website makes it out to be a unique and amazing experience with specialized processes but when I arrived there was nothing like that at all. It was just a regular cocktail bar. Drinks were good but not anything over the top. The bartender was nice but definitely ready to go home as couldn’t find him for a while. Overall a nice place just not as advertised.“
“We’ve been to City Kitchen twice recently, and have had really nice experiences. The food is flavorful and hot, the drink portions are solid, the music is fun, and our server Robert is great — he is very attentive and friendly! It’s nice to have a reliable local restaurant that has something for everyone. We will be back!Parking: Parking lot out front is huge and spots are widely available“
“Excellent restaurant. I just happened to wonder by and decided to go in for dinner. It was great and everyone in my party thought so too. The waiter was right on top of things and dinner came quickly. The restroom was clean. I would definitely go back.“

“Tasty Thai lunch in Old Town! Tried sleepy shrimp for the first time and they were very good: juicy shrimp wrapped in a wonton wrapper and served with a sweet chili sauce. We also enjoyed the balanced Thai iced tea, pad Thai with chicken, spring rolls and pad ginger with shrimp. Ample portions and comfortable seating combined with excellent service made for a wonderful rest from an afternoon of shopping. Thank you!“

“Looked for a bite to eat before attending a show at the MGM Theater. Making a reservation was out of the question at one of the restaurants, so we decided to try Bread and Butter. Food was great. Steak, eggs, tater tots and toast. Steak was well seasoned, tender enough to cut with a plastic knife and fork. Eggs were scrambled perfectly, not requiring any salt and pepper. Tater tots were fine. Meal was great!!“
“Local dive bar with the BEST staff. Kid friendly area to run and scream. It won't bother anyone as most patrons are grandparents, mostly young boomers and Xers. No hassles or arguments because "they dont play". Everyone gets along despite rooting for opposing teams. Always music playing from one of the bartenders. Live music on Thursday.Parking: Enough parking for the capacity of the bar. Road front area is shared with other stores.Kid-friendliness: "Seperate" dining area where kids can eat almost unsupervised.Wheelchair accessibility: Everything is ground level.“
“The food and live entertainment best in the area!!!!! If you like live music this is the place.Absolutely the most amazing live music in the area.And the Dj on Friday nights Absolutely entertaining!!! The food ain't your typical bar food.“
“This place was very packed on a Saturday night. I see why the drinks were on point just the right balance. I had the whole wings. Which should be called jumbo wings. The crowd was a older crowd maybe 35 and up which was needed in that area.“
“Pupusas here are good. It's a mix of Mexican and Salvadoran food and I've been coming to it for years. The old school drinks, plátanos con crema and pupusas are delicious. The jukebox with cumbias and musica latina sets a good vibe. The staff is friendly and it's not always too busy.“
“Loved this restaurant. It's about 0.6 of mile away from the very busy main street area of Alexandria. There is plenty of street parking nearby and on side streets with a parking garage somewhere nearby too.Great place to grab brunch. Delicious food and we tried the Bellini which was good too! Would recommend!“
“The pupusas and tacos are a must. They're probably some of the better tacos you can get around the Landmark area. I did order their Birria Fries, and I had mixed feelings. The meet and toppings themselves were delicious; however, the fries were soggy and actually cold. I would definitely have enjoyed it way more if it was hot and crispy.I've also had the Birria tacos and Birria ramen during another visit. I'd definitely recommend them!“
“The bartenders treat regulars better than others. You can order the same drink and get smaller glasses or cups than normal. Also if you order a drink such as a punch that needs to be shaken to mux properly they get lazy and just pour it and leave you to have to stor it. It does not taste the same. Plus they put very little alcohol in them. Shame not to feel welcome because you don't go every week. They stopped the dj through the week and they are boring with old timmers creepy male crowd on Thursdays especially. The food is the best and only reason to visit. Excellent cook.“
“The hostess was rude didn't have any manners. (Didn't say you're welcome and I thanked her for taking us to our seat and when she brought us water.) other than that my server and food was pretty good. I got the Connecticut lobster roll and steamed shrimp.“
“We were in town for a concert at the MGM and wanted to grab a drink beforehand. Stopped in at this place early evening. Seemed to be mostly regulars sitting around the bar. They were friendly and inviting. Several said hello to us and we pulled up a couple barstools. There were many tvs showing various sports or news and one woman asked if there was anything we wanted to change a channel to. They had a few draft beers plus canned/bottled beer, wine and liquor. Husband was very pleased with his Beam and Coke -- they made it strong. Prices were great.“
