A solid neighborhood spot. I appreciate the gluten-free options here, they do a decent job with those. The set menu, when they have it, is a pretty good deal. Staff is always friendly.

The butter chicken sauce was so rich and creamy. Perfect with the garlic naan!

Quick lunch spot. The bowls are always fresh, and you get a lot for your money. Love all the topping options to mix it up. Just wish the line moved a bit faster during peak hours.

Love the digital menu, makes ordering super fast. The retro music is a fun touch. Got my burrito in under 10 minutes. Perfect for a quick lunch.

Those apple butter donuts are the real deal. I saw them being made fresh in the morning, and they were still warm when I got them. The gift shop has some cool local stuff too.

Cornell and Dylan are so friendly and attentive. They remembered my preference for extra greens and made sure my salad was just right. The whole place feels spotless, which is important to me. A nice, calm spot for a healthy lunch.

Friendly staff, efficient service. I often grab takeout here while waiting for my order. The aroma inside is a nice bonus. Convenient location for a quick meal.

The lychee martini was spot on. A solid drink list for a place that&#39;s not a dedicated cocktail bar.

The steak burrito bowl really hit the spot for a quick lunch. They didn&#39;t skimp on the meat, and the flavors were all there. Service was fast and got me in and out. Solid choice when you&#39;re in a hurry.

Early lunch, both menus open. Biscuits and Brussels sprouts to start. Fire &amp; Smoke pizza had a solid kick to it. Paired it with a crisp lager, which cut through the spice nicely. A good spot for a casual bite.

Joseph is such a welcoming manager. He remembered our table and made the whole evening feel so easy.

Been coming here for years, the $1.50 nigiri is hard to beat. The fish is always fresh, and that fatty salmon piece is my go-to. Parking&#39;s validated, which is a nice touch. Solid spot for a quick lunch.

Great spot in Old Town Alexandria, easy to miss being on the second floor. The lamb chops were cooked perfectly, really tender. A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for with that quality of meat.

George at the bar is a gem. He remembered my name from last time, which was a nice touch. The vibe was lively even on a Sunday, but not overwhelming. Just a chill spot to unwind.

Good spot for a beer after work. I like their Pacifico on tap, and the Modelo Negra is solid too. The patio out front is quiet enough to actually have a conversation. A decent local hang.

Grabbed a drink and the Bavarian pretzel on the rooftop. It was a nice day, so the spot was perfect for just hanging out. Really relaxed vibe up there.

This is a nice family-run place in the historic district. Had a pretty good lunch here. The pasta was decent, though the portion was a bit on the smaller side. It does feel like a little hidden find.

Came for the pork al pastor nachos, they&#39;re huge! Easily shareable for two, maybe three. The frozen spicy marg was good, but honestly, the nachos were the star for the price. Tucker was cool.

Found a halal Italian spot nearby. The pasta was actually pretty good, lots of flavor. A solid choice if you&#39;re looking for something different.

Rowan was our waiter and he was on it. Super helpful with the menu, and our food came out fast even though the place was packed. Good service.

Late brunch, quiet spot. Server was attentive. The octopus was tender, pasta cooked just right. Solid meal, no fuss. Would come back.

Service was really nice. The waiter was attentive and brought a complimentary mocktail, which was a thoughtful touch.

The warm pita and olive tapenade they bring out is such a nice touch. My favorite was the chicken with yogurt &mdash; super tender, and the sauce was just right. The low lighting made it cozy for a weeknight dinner.

Been here a few times for lunch. The server was really helpful, spoke both languages which made things easy. Portions are big for what you pay. Solid spot.

The calamari here is a solid starter. Cooked just right, it&rsquo;s tender and not rubbery at all. Really enjoyed that texture.

Been coming here for years, and Restaurant Week is always a solid bet. The French onion soup is consistently rich and hearty, just like it should be. That three-course menu price is hard to beat.

The crispy cauliflower and truffle wagyu burger were so good! Everything tasted fresh and balanced. Perfect spot to catch up with friends over some really solid food.

The wood-fired crust here is something else. It&rsquo;s got this chewy crispness I keep thinking about. The place feels updated but still has that family-run warmth. Just a really solid spot.

I always get the Lomo Saltado here. The portion is huge, so I usually have enough for lunch the next day. The sangria is nice with it.

The Lost Fox offers a fantastic dining experience with a beautiful view from the second floor balcony. The food was delicious, especially the chicken wings, and the service was outstanding, making it a memorable evening.
