“The Sea Bass was a total suprise. More often than not I am dissapointed when I order fish. Not the case here. The presentation was superb. The blend of flavors, textures and colors was an epicurean delight. Our waiter/bartender Damany was thoughtful, always on point without being intrusive. The whole experience was one worth repeating.“

“best Indian restaurant in old town. Chicken tika masala is the best.“

“Absolutely the best food and service in old town !! Amazing chili and cornbread!! I would recommend this for great prices and excellent food !!“

“One of our all time favorites!“

“Borrowing from their words. More than 30 years later, the Silver Diner has gone from a nostalgic American icon serving affordable family food to a highly overrated restaurant serving overpriced food that allegedly reflect’s today’s lifestyles. But the one thing that will never change is the stench of their restrooms throughout the diner.“

“very relaxing and cozy as a date night.“

“yes I recommend plnt Burger“

“I’ve only gotten delivery from here so I can’t speak to the location but WOWZAS is this a delicious (and affordable) vegan spot!! The mac & cheese is super creamy—melts in your mouth. The crispy chicken sandwich is massive and well balanced (if that’s possible with fast food, ha). The lasagne is also delectable. Prices are much lower than competitors. Highly recommend!“

“Food was great. Overall satisfied with the meal. Wait staff was quick and friendly. Worth a visit. Only way it could be improved is to have citronella candles on the table. There are no candles on the tables outside. Be sure to tip generously!“

“Definitely try the bison burger. If you’re ok with meat that melts in your mouth.“

“Burtons is such a blessing for those with allergies! Staff are highly trained, and everything is labeled so carefully! Every server has been top notch and the food is amazing!“

“This is my go to spot in Alexandria, especially for happy hour. The Gin Ramen is amazing and they have a great selection of Sake!“

“great bartenders great staff service drinks music food!!“

“Fantastic local restaurant serving Nashville Korean fusion. The best fried chicken I have ever had. Reasonable prices for Alexandria location and incredible, made to order food. Really a gem of a find. The rest of their menu (outside of fried chicken) is also delicious, but their chicken and homemade sauces are hard to beat. Highly recommend!“

“Very good! It was busy lots of people enjoying food and our pho came out fast. Yummmm. I got chicken my boyfriend got the beef brisket which was sooo good I'll def get beef next time. Our waiter was nice and gave us his recommendations. Also a great price“

“Great find! Good music and great food!“

“Love this place! Dinner is always 10/10 but service, we had Alena or elena and she was just the sweetest young lady and she knows was shes doing, and she was honest too with her recommendations! We always have a tuna and oysters! Then steak this time we shared the cowboy ribeye and added scallops which by the way is not on the menu but elena said they could do it and it was delicious!! 5 star service“

“I don’t typically take the time to write reviews, but that was the best ribeye I’ve ever had at a restaurant. Highly recommend the surf and turf. Put Fort Worth to shame 10/10“

“As part of the US Army, I was sustained in Italy many years ago. I have struggled until now to find quality, amazing tasting Italian food. Mamma's Kitchen in Alexandria surpassed all expectations. Every course of the meal was just what you would expect when dining in Italy. Thanks for the great experience and for the memories it brought back.“

“We could not believe our luck finding this gem of a place, whilst on holiday from Scotland! The food? What can I say to make folk reach out to you? Just go and you’ll experience the most wonderful home cooked food and the greatest ambience! .. staff and management couldn’t make you feel more welcome! Keep the good work up and hopefully see you next visit! You’ll be our “ go to restaurant” Thank you PS - our town Dundee in Scotland is “twinned” ( sister) with yourselves .. who would have known eh??“

“The service and food were absolutely wonderful! First time visiting but definitely not the last! The salmon avocado toast was a smash! It was so pretty I almost didn’t want to eat it but I did of course!“

“SU POLLO is great authentic Peruvian Chicken with tasty sides and friendly staff. A go to family favorite easy and quick for takeout. The food is wholesomely prepared on sight and you can taste the difference. In a new location but same great service and food!“

“Chunky Monkey, always so yummy 👍👍“

“Delicious! Interesting flavors and so good.“

“My wife and I got a pizza and the garlic bread sticks planning on eating half and saving the rest for later. But the food was so delicious, we ended up eating it all in one meal!
I highly recommend the hot honey pepperoni pizza. It was delicious! The only downside is it leaves your fingers sticky with delicious honey...“

“One of the best ice cream shops I’ve been to in a long time, I was pleasantly surprised to find homemade custard. The root beer was delightful in my root beer float and you can definitely taste the honey flavors the root beer was made with. The vanilla custard was refreshing and fantastic. I got there 30 minutes prior to closing and the place had a line out the door. It was a fast line and worth the short wait time. I understand now why it was so popular and I look forward to trying more from the menu in the future. They had a lot of great options and accommodations for almost anyone such as sorbet. Really cute area and if you go across the street and down a little there’s more seating to sit and eat your delicious treat outside. There’s also a cute little garden spot directly across the street too with a few seats and a spot for a treat for your dog in the mail box. I would 100% recommend this spot but expect it to be busy.“

“El Paso is a great spot if you’re craving authentic Mexican food in Alexandria. I ordered the surf and turf tacos, and they were absolutely fantastic—loaded with perfectly seasoned steak and shrimp, plenty of flavor, and served on crispy tortillas. I’d order them again without hesitation.

The complimentary chips and salsa were fresh, the rice and beans were solid, and the service was friendly and attentive. The restaurant has a fun, colorful atmosphere that’s comfortable whether you’re grabbing lunch or dinner.

If you’re visiting for the first time, I highly recommend the surf and turf tacos. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Fresh natural decor, open layout and engaging music. The small pita included perfectly spiced protein and fresh veggies with a wide array of veggy sauces and dressings. Great taste and value.“

“What a clean restaurant! The friendly service and great food selection from the menu are excellent. The food service staff are always there to help you with anything you want to eat or drink, and you can have fun with your family and friends. There's always something special about this restaurant that you'll always love. Thank goodness for your hospitality and service to this beautiful restaurant.“

“We enjoyed an amazing dinner. Our server, Micaela went over and above to ensure my gluten allergy was taken care of by the kitchen. Loved the atmosphere. Ps being Canadian I loved the hockey game was playing!!!“

“The food was fantastic, service was also fantastic. Would recommend this great place to anyone! Thank you, and you will be seeing me again!“

“Cute shop with indoor and outdoor seating. Yummy sandwiches with some unique combinations and good assortment of chips and cold drinks.“

“I love everything about this place! Been coming here for a couple of years now and they know me and added me by name and always know exactly what I like. OG ACAI BOWL for the win!! They fix it perfectly every time!“

“This was an outstanding experience from start to finish. From the time we arrived until we departed, this was an amazing experience. It started with a warm welcome at the door, continued with a relaxed atmosphere along with impeccable service from our waiter as well as everyone else who served us, and culminated with delicious food that was beautifully presented. I think this place is a real gem!“

“Old Blue catered my daughters wedding. I will be recommending them to everyone I know. Old Blue has the best BBQ food in the greater DC area - so, that would be enough to recommend them - however, if you are planning an event, you will not believe the quality of the service they offer. Everyone was helpful, had great suggestions, they even shared decorations with us. The day of the wedding was also perfect - they were attentive and seemed to anticipate every need. Again, they would be worth it just for the food, but they perfect because of everything else.“

“This place so good. I loved my strawberry mango smoothie and family all enjoy their items. The fruit on the acai bowls are so fresh also.“

“We shared the roast beef sandwich and home fries. It was delicious!“

“Great crepes and quiches, excellent coffee, friendly staff, indoor and outdoor dining!“

“These cupcakes are amazing. I strongly recommend. The flourless is delicious!“

“This was by far the highlight of any meal we had on a 6 day trip to Alexandria/D.C. The free bus (30/31) stops right across the street and only took 15 minutes from the metro. We had the Linguine Cacio de Pepe with Chicken, Mafalde & Sausage, garlic bread and the chocolate chip cookies for dessert. It was all outstanding, excellent price and our server Rees was awesome!!!“

“We love the food… we eat here often when in Alexandria. Spaghetti Carbonara is one of my favorites! And, my 7-year old grandson gives the kids spaghetti 2 thumbs up!“
