Restaurants near Homewood Suites by Hilton Alexandria

It was great to see Clyde’s so busy, having suffered through the pandemic when I feared for the employees and company running the Mark Center location. One of the staff said they had served almost 700 patrons by 10 and fully expected to serve 800 by midnight. This kind of success is a symptom of all kinds of things going right: Food, service, ambiance, atmosphere, as usual, were outstanding.

Palette 22 is now our go-to restaurant. Each dish is well-prepared, flavorful, and represents the country of origin. The service is always polite and responsive. Tip: you can order a few dishes at a time. You do not need to place your entire order at one time. This allows you to enjoy each dish more slowly. We like taking turns ordering 2 items at a time. From last night, my top picks were the Sesane Steak, Lebanese Tacos, and the Funghi Flat Bread.

We had an amazing evening. The food was amazing. Thank you to Fernando, who made the night unforgettable. His attention to detail and warm hospitality made us feel like we were the only people in the restaurant. He anticipated our needs, made thoughtful recommendations, and added a personal touch that elevated the entire evening. It’s rare to find such genuine service these days, and Fernando truly made us feel at home. We can’t wait to return! Highly recommended for anyone looking for great food and an even better experience.

My friend had the brisket and loved it.. cocktails were great too! We stopped in for a late lunch and definitely want to go back for dinner. Also loved the hushpuppies and potato salad. He was talking about going back for more before we hit the driveway on the way home ~

The service was MUCH better than my last visit to Corso. Everything was great, and enjoyed catching up with friends. Nice to see Corso is back on top in Shirlington!
