Day 1: Alexandria Restaurant Week

Day 1 of 365...

     Whether you drive through Alexandria or take advantage of its walk-ability, it is hard to travel down a street and not be able to find a place to sit and eat.  Whether you are looking to eat a burger, trying to impress a date, or need an over the top restaurant to dig yourself out of the "doghouse," Alexandria offers a place for you.

Friday kicked off Alexandria's Restaurant Week, which continues through Sunday and what a better way to kick off DC Metro 365 than with my favorite thing..Food!  While there are over 60 restaurants that are participating this week, I wanted to highlight two of my favorite restaurants in Alexandria; Joe Theismann's Restaurant and Columbia Firehouse Restaurant & Barroom.

     Joe Theismann's Restaurant:  Located at 1800 Diagonal Rd, Alexandria, 22314, which is conveniently located directly across from the King Street Metro.   An upscale sports bar, Joe Theismann's offers a wide variety of food selections ranging from my favorite the Sesame Crusted Tuna to their House Burgers.  Have a date night planned during the big game, no problem as there are several Tv's located throughout the bar, as well as in the men's restroom, so you don't have to worry about missing the big play.  Joe Theismann's is offering $35 Prixe-Fixe Dinners through January 22.


    Columbia Firehouse:  Looking to enjoy a nice dinner in one of the many historic buildings located in Old Town, Columbia Firehouse is your spot.  Originally built in 1883, as a firehouse, 109 South Saint Asaph St has been meticulously restored into a 4 star dining experience.  With seating available on its 4 floors, a beautiful atrium, ballroom, as well as an outdoor patio Columbia Firehouse is perfect for just a night out or that special occasion.  Their menu includes a raw bar, steaks, and seafood.  Columbia Firehouse is offering $35 Prixe-Fixe Dinners during restaurant week.
