Best Restaurants with a Scenic View in Old Town Alexandria

This was the perfect choice for our Valentine's Day engagement. We were split between the Family Style southern menu and the Valentine's Day menu. Both looked good but the southern style gave the best taste of what Succotash is all about. Our server Eric made it an amazing experience! He brought us a special dessert and really helped make it a special occasion. We will always remember our special day and the family style meal at Succotash

The food, drinks and servers were amazing. We tried all of the oysters, shrimp pasta and blackened salmon.

If you like Mexican food dishes, this is the place to go. The Comi-con event was in town the evening we went, the restaurant was pretty full of customers, and the servers were very busy. However, our service was excellent. Our server was patient with us, explaining the menu (we had the Valentine's Day special), and the meal was served at a very comfortable pace. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it. We had "take home" leftovers, enough for another meal. It was mostly full of people while we were there and the tables are fairly close together, but the noise level was acceptable. My wife and I could talk without having to raise our voices. This was our first visit there but it won't be our last. Like everything else at National Harbor, it was a bit pricey, but on a "you get what you pay for" scale, we got our money's worth. I would recommend this location for a date night, anniversary or other special occasions.

Our server, Tina, was phenomenal. She was very attentive and had wonderful recommendations for our meal. We enjoyed everything that we ate especially the signature cocktails and entrees.

Not staying at the hotel, it was difficult finding our way to the restaurant, but everything else was excellent. The menu is small and mostly casual food, but it is well-prepared and affordable considering the service and the view. The salads and flatbread for appetizers were excellent. The burger was also excellent and the crab cake sandwich above average. Along with a glass of wine, the average cost per person was around $50, a great price for an establishment like this in DC.
