Despite being on the river, there’s not that many places to eat ON the water in old town Alexandria, this is one of them! Lots of small plates to share, I had a bruschetta with mushroom that was overflowing with mushrooms! Here’s a picture of the pier portion of the restaurant, they also have a couple of patios on solid ground. Dogs are welcome, as are couples, families, fancy people, sweaty people who just got off their bikes… They will feed anyone. It was busy, recommend...

Beautiful spot to grab something light. The view of the water while sitting outside was wonderful. I wouldn't come here for a solid meal. It's more of a drink and appetizers chill spot.

Literally everything we had here was fabulous. Cocktails, tapas, service all A++. Thank goodness I made a reservation earlier in the week because we got there at 5:30 on a beautiful Friday afternoon and it was packed with a line out the door.
Can’t wait to come back!
