    First time visiting the study, and we will definitely be back! Our server Rodney made sure that we were comfortable with the menu and offered suggestions which we took every one of. Manny, the bartender also offered a warm welcome. His cocktail list was seasonal, fun, and well crafted. AJ the dessert cook brought us his pana cotta as a surprise. Chef sent out a fun amuse bouche. Great atmosphere, service, and food 10/10!

    This restaurant is a gem in Old Town Alexandria. Elaine’s also hosts ‘book talks’ and has a lovely space upstairs with a library feel. Jeffrey was kind enough to let the 4 of us sit in that beautiful upstairs space….even though we were the only ones there. The ambiance was exquisite…with beautiful soft music in the background and excellent service…even though our server had to come upstairs to tend just us. The food and cocktails were delicious! It’s a little on the pricey side…but well worth it! Will definitely be back!!
