Now here's a find that might surprise you — Southside 815 isn't your typical coastal seafood joint, but this Old Town Alexandria institution has been serving up authentic Southern comfort food since 1993, and trust me, Southern cuisine knows how to handle seafood right. This neighborhood gem has earned serious recognition, landing on Washingtonian Magazine's '100 Very Best Bargain' list for ten consecutive years and making Washington Post critic Phyllis Richman's top 50 favorites.
What makes this place special is the genuine Southern hospitality and portions that'll fuel you through your next cross-country flight. With 14 TVs (including 5 in 4K), 18 draft beers featuring local micros, and that 'everybody knows your name' atmosphere, it's the kind of place where you can catch the game, enjoy quality food without breaking the bank, and experience what they call 'Southern generosity.' Located right in historic Old Town Alexandria, you're getting three decades of proven excellence in a lively, welcoming setting.
