Best Restaurants for People Watching in Old Town Alexandria

Excellent, fun, intimate and excellent! Seafood medley (shrimp, scallops, mussels and clams) over linguine w/ pink marinara sauce was spectacular. Great dessert and coffee(chocolate). Service was great.

Excellent food. Just the right portions so you don't feel overstuffed. Our waiter was very entertaining. The front part of the restaurant seemed a bit loud, but we had a nice booth towards the back to it was quiet. The menu is a little bit pricey, but then again, if you want a good meal for a special occasion, the price is fine. We felt it was well worth it.

Good service and nice menu with interesting selections. It was a repeatable experience.

We ordered medium well steak and frites. At first, they gave us the steak salad which was incorrect. Then when they tried to correct and gave us the steak and frites, it was medium rare. The service staff took a long time to come back and check on us. Everyone at the table were done with their dinner when we told the server that we couldn’t eat the steak because it wasn’t cooked medium well. The server asked if we wanted it to be cooked more, but everyone was finished with dinner. So we were not able to eat our food. Good thing we ordered soup and appetizer.

Went on Taco Tuesday for the all you can eat tacos. The food was delicious. The server was mistaken on what exactly we ordered, so the initial plate came with rice and beans. Make sure to order the Taco Tuesday special, or they will charge you for the rice and beans. In any case, the margarita was good too, just a nice place for a mid-week dinner. Saw other menu items brought out to other tables and it all looked and smelled wonder.
