Evening Star Cafe Description:
Since opening in August of 1997, the Evening Star Café has become one of the most popular restaurants in Alexandria, Virginia. The restaurant features eclectic American food in a casual setting, with two separate bars, featuring a combined twenty beers on tap, ten bottled beers, and nineteen wines by the glass.
The Evening Star Café's unique relationship with the Daily Planet wine shop, located right next door, allows diners to choose from a wine list that features over 1000 bottles of carefully selected wines. All wines in the Daily Planet may be purchased at the Café for its retail price plus a modest corking fee.
Talk about neighborhood restaurants. This cozy-comfy place takes the prize for its welcoming, come-one-come-all ambience. Setting the scene: rustic décor and a menu that is as at-home as Grandma's cooking, all put in place by an energetic chef who gets what comfort food should be all about. Among the offerings on its eclectic luncheon menu, thumbs up to the muffaletta, that grand overstuffed sandwich popular in New Orleans. Other bests: a big bowl of piping hot, spicy jambalaya. Try the burger for the midday meal, or if you're cutting calories, the grilled tuna salad might be just the thing. Dinner entrées range from roast chicken to a grilled pork chop accompanied by a pumpkin and andouille risotto. At any meal, don't skip dessert: the turtle cheesecake is guaranteed to wow you. And for brunch, who could pass up pecan buttermilk pancakes?
