We met our son and his finance for brunch. Everyone enjoyed their food and it wasn’t packed so it was a quiet brunch.

First thing the waitress did when she came to the table...coughed on my girlfriend! The prices during happy hour were great, and the mixed drinks were tasty. The shrimp and grits were normally $30, but half price at the bar...the shrimp and grits were not very good, even $15 was too much for them. Sauce was good, but the shrimps were few and far between, and small. Shrimps were not very good quality, I can get better shrimp at Kroger. Will come back for drinks, but not sure if we'll eat there again.

Great food! We went to Velvet & Rye, but have been to Wood-fire before too (also great food, a little louder than velvet, more family atmosphere). $134 for 2 entrees, 4 (alcoholic) drinks, and one appetizer (not bad, worth the price). I got the penne pasta, AMAZING. My date for lamb chops, he was skeptical ordering them, but they ended up being really good. Definitely recommend for a little date night.

Was in Alexandria with my family, 2 teenagers and my wife. The service and food was great. I recommend getting the tiramisu for dessert and we all liked the meatball app.

Food was awesome! Crab dip and Mac and cheese were incredible! Service was a little slow but we weren’t in any rush so we didn’t mind! Would 100% go again and recommend to friends and family!
