    1799 has a beautiful ambience — warm, inviting, and upscale without being stuffy. I had the seared scallops with risotto, and both were cooked perfectly. The scallops had a gorgeous sear and the flavors of the risotto paired beautifully. For dessert, we enjoyed the molten chocolate cake and the bread pudding — both were beautifully presented and absolutely delectable. A wonderful finish to an already memorable meal. Service was attentive and well-paced. Looking forward to coming back!

    Really enjoyed this experience. The history of the restaurant and the family dating back centuries was very enlightening. I love the location in an older area of Alexandria. The food was top-notch. Grilled Branzino topped with crab meat. Fantastic.

    Very nice experience. I only have two complaints. 1) funny smell as soon as you walk in at the bar area into the restaurant. It did not smell toward the back of the restaurant. 2) we sat in a booth by a sliding door that is apparently a short cut, with waiter/waitresses walking back and forth was a bit annoying. Other than that, the steak was cooked to perfection. The kale Caesar salad was delicious. The sides were just okay. Our server was amazing! Prices were expected and decent.

    Great food (brunch) and drinks. 1st visit Our anniversary. Our Waitress rolled her eyes when we asked for more water. Other servers cleared our plates constantly and made sure we were good. Too bad the automatic gratuity couldn't go to them. Felt like we were "bothering" her for basic request. Only downside was her less than welcoming attitude. We plan to go back for dinner another time but not with her as our waitress.

    Took my friend for her birthday. Everything was delicious, as always! And, as a vegetarian, I really appreciated the tofu steak entree. Usually my only option at a steak house is pasta.
