    Nice Thanksgiving outing with family. For $40, the Thanksgiving needed more food items to choose from (sweet potatoes; roast beef; light & dark meat turkey; smoked & fried turkey choices;). There was very little cranberry sauce; and no dessert came with the meal? If it did, we didn’t get any dessert?

    Such an incredible experience from the moment we stepped in that door to celebrate my mom’s 80th birthday celebration. I have been bragging about how amazing Mastros is- and they delivered above and beyond! The food was perfect in all aspects. I couldn’t have asked for anything better!

    We were in town for a long weekend and found the Wharf online. A great atmosphere and the food was… AMAZING! We could not go wrong - the crab cake, seafood special, lobster ravioli, and succotash were all so good, and the price wasn’t bad either. Staff was very sweet and brought out cheesecake for our Anniversary as well! Highly recommend if you’re in Alexandria.

    Pleasantly surprised! Wanted to go because of the historical aspect but was expecting more of a tourist experience with mediocre food. What we discovered was a unique experience, friendly service, fun atmosphere and incredibly good food! Can’t believe I have lived here this long and not been before. I’ll be back and will be bringing others! Thank you!
