    This was an outstanding experience in fine dining for me and a friend. The food was really amazing and the service was top notch. Our server was excellent, amazing, and did such a fantastic job in how he managed our many requests and changes. I can only highly recommend Vaso's and I will definitely return!

    Very welcoming and attentive service - not formal service, but warm and focused. The menu and specials as well as cocktails were all very enjoyable. Desserta also satisfied from the tiramisu to the baklava like dishes. Really good group experience.

    A charming Greek bistro on King Street, Old Town Alexandria, removed from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy waterfront area. Good, Greek comfort food, with the addition of a few Italian dishes.

    Vaso’s is one of my favorites and went with a large group who all raved about the food! I recommend the Vaso’s shrimp or the branzino.

    the food was very ordinary. the shrimp pasta was swimming in grease. The Masuoka was hard around the edges, like it had been reheated. The reviews were more positive than our experience.

    This was my first visit. Two of us had the chicken souvlaki salad and one had the gyro salad. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service received, I was worried about parking but I was able to find something nearby (2 min walk) and that worked out perfect. We'll definitely dine here again!
