Best Restaurants for People Watching in Alexandria

We come often when we’re in town and the service is always excellent. Many of the public facing staff have been there for years, if not decades. The brunch is solid and fairly priced for the market. The coffee and champagne were excellent. The seafood omelette was more than my wife could eat. The fried catfish meal changed: it now just comes with a large pile of fries rather than poached eggs and home fries. Still good but I preferred the previous version.

Outstanding service, food to die for! I had the Terra-mare, and my wife had the pappardelle, both were delicious! The staff made us feel right at home. This is our second visit to this cozy, homey place, and we hope to keep coming back!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Majestic for Valentine's Day, and I can't express enough how amazing the experience was! The food was absolutely divine. We had the grilled spanish octopus, it had such a nice spice to it. It’s clear that the chefs take immense pride in their craft. The service was incredible and attentive, ensuring that our glasses were never empty and that we had everything we needed. Juan, our server, was friendly and knew the menu and bar very well. Despite the business of Valentine’s Day we never felt rushed and we truly appreciated taking our time throughout dinner. Majestic consistently delivers an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend!

I started with the seasonal salad, with crispy shallots on top, added both crunchy texture and a delicious accent. Accompanied by the cast iron cornbread with herbed butter, well an explosion of flavor that I savored!

This was an Amazing experience!! It started snowing today - didn’t know for sure how much would stick. It turned out to be 4 inches. ;) We had a reservation and were the only guests. They stayed open for us and were so gracious! No one hurried us, in fact they took time to chat about several things. Even though they were closing as soon as we left! The food was very delicious - all the things we ordered. We live 2 blocks away and will share this with many people for exceptional service and food! 💞
