The Majestic Cafe

Last week, Marty and I dined at the Majestic Cafe on King Street in Alexandria (it is owned by the same people who own Restaurant Eve). One of our family's favorite restaurants, you can count on dining on delicious food in a "casually swank" -as they like to call it- atmostphere. One of my favorite parts of the Majestic Cafe is starting with the delicious Ceasar salad. Someone on the wait staff wheels out a cart and makes the dressing in front of you. You also get the option of adding anchovies, which I think is a must and completes the salad nicely. I also really enjoy the Seafood Stew and the meatloaf.

One thing I have not yet tried at the Majestic is Nana's Sunday night dinner. Every Sunday night, the restaurant offers a family style meal which rotates monthly and is specific to the season. This month they are offering a Christmas Dinner of Roast Beef with Red Wine-Horseradish sauce, Mixed Greens with Berkshire Blue Cheese, Scalloped Potatoes, and Sauteed Wild Mushrooms. You even get Chocolate Cream Pie for dessert! The family dinner serves a max of four guests at a total cost of $78. However, you can pay an additional $25 per extra person. I would highly recommend trying the Majestic if you haven't yet-- but make sure to make a reservation! They fill up fast. Enjoy!
