    Josephine's is becoming one of our favorite spots in Old Town Alexandria. Great service. We usually sit at the bar and the bartenders are the best. The restaurant itself is gorgeous with plenty of quiet spots for conversation. Food is great. The menu is small, which means the food will be better quality. We went for Thanksgiving and could get the traditional meal or go with our favorites.

    As long as Josephine is open on Thanksgiving, I will never cook Thanksgiving dinner again. The food was excellent, service delightful, and the ambiance wonderful. We ate in the small dining room downstairs.
