About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
Since 1932, the Majestic has been a fixture on King Street in Old Town Alexandria. Step inside and you'll feel like you've taken a trip to yesteryear. There's jazz in the air and cocktail shakers at the bar, famous for its selection of unique whiskies and spirits. Dine in for a sophisticated lunch, open a bottle of wine from the extensive list, gather around the bar with friends old and new, or cuddle up in a booth for a romantic dinner. Open for dinner and weekend brunch.

    Waited 30 minutes for a drink. Finally went to bar to get it myself. Waited 40+ minutes for appetizer. We’ve been to Majestic many times and never had an experience like this. Food was delicious.

    We’ve eaten here several times but today was exceptional thanks to our server Lorena G. We had a party of 8 and she was attentive, professional, and personable. She struck the right balance between checking on us and allowing us time yo talk amongst ourselves. Our friends from out of town thoroughly enjoyed brunch here just as we always have since moving to the area. Thank you Lorena G!

    The food was truly delicious, and the atmosphere of the place was quite inviting. Our server was adequate, though there were a few minor mix-ups with the orders, possibly due to the noise of the busy environment. Thankfully, these issues were not too problematic. Unfortunately, our experience was significantly overshadowed by the floor manager's demeanor. It’s possible she was having a tough night, but her comment to one of our guests was quite unexpected and left us all feeling uncomfortable. When one of our guests inquired about an extra side that hadn't been served with his meal, the manager responded rudly, saying, “I only have two hands, sir; your side is coming.”Her tone caught us off guard and seemed to drain the joy from the moment just before we began our meal. Rather than savoring our meal together, we found ourselves discussing her unkindness and wondering what might have triggered her bad attitude. It is unfortunate that one person can ruin an otherwise good experience, ultimately giving us no reason to return.

    Restaurant had a great vibe on a Friday night! Enjoyed/shared a variety of apps. Our entrees were delicious, hot and portions large enough to share. Service was excellent. Would definitely make a return visit.

    As always, super-delicious food, although it would be nice to have some bread served with the meal. The only downside was the intermittent service. Took a while even to get menus. And, for some reason, they are out of decaf coffee. Still I would go back to enjoy the food and ambience, which is very pleasant (we had a booth).

    Hello martha, We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the food at The Majestic! We're sorry to hear about the service and the lack of certain items. We appreciate your feedback and will certainly look into this matter to ensure we always provide our guests with the best experience. We're glad that you still chose to come back and we hope you'll enjoy our ambiance and food again. Best regards, The Management Team
