Hands down the best snow crab legs I’ve had in the DMV! Cooked PERFECTLY! I’d go back a zillion times for that alone! It’s definitely more casual than I was expecting and the service could be better and parking was tricky but it didn’t matter - the food is so so so worth it! Everything was so good! The mozzarella sticks are ginormous and there’s 6 of them (too much for 2 people IMO - hated wasting them because they were so good). All around YUMMY - can’t wait to go back!

Love the waterfront area of Old Town, first time here. The food was decent overall. Was disappointed with the limited “sides” options to substitute if you did not want what they paired the food with. The calamari was not great like I was expecting! The salmon blt was pretty good. I highly recommend the spicy Cajun pasta! Absolutely delicious

They have a wide variety of seafood dishes. The restaurant is perfectly located right in the heart of Old Town. We had clam chowder (a bit salty but otherwise good - not pictured), the fried shrimp platter and the rainbow trout platter which were good. For the location the prices are very reasonable.

Very disappointed in the shrimp and grits. The shrimp was overcooked and small. They were spread around the plate of grits with the gravy spread in the middle. There was an off flavor that was overpowering like Worcestershire sauce in the gravy. And for almost $30, I expected the shrimp to be jumbo. We started out at the bar for happy hour which was very good.

We had a good experience at The Fish Market Restaurant in Old Town Alexandria. The food was fresh and flavorful, with a wide variety of seafood options to choose from. I had the jerk shrimp tacos, which were absolutely delicious. I also had the lobster bisque which wasn’t the best I’ve had since it was a bit thin, but it was still very tasty. My wife ordered the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. The tuna wasn’t alive, but it did seem like it was swimming in sauce! It was creamier than expected. A bit much.

We sat outside on a balcony overlooking busy King Street, which made for great people-watching and added to the charm. Prices were very reasonable, around $25 to $30 per person. The staff was friendly and attentive, especially our waitress, who was maybe even a little too attentive at times, but it was appreciated.

Overall, this is a great spot for a casual seafood meal in a lively, historic setting. We would definitely go back.
