About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Mia's Italian Kitchen, located at the riverside end of King Street in Old Town Alexandria, is rooted in family. Our menu is filled with homestyle traditional Italian recipes sourced from owner Dave Nicholas' Sicilian grandmother. An elegant wine list accompanies beer and craft cocktails on the beverage menu. Dine downstairs and watch the signature Sicilian-style rectangular pizzas cook in the 800-degree brick oven, or upstairs to view the energetic open kitchen. Open for lunch and dinner, plus bottomless weekend brunch.

    Cannot recommend a better place for dinner in Alexandria. Always great service and great food. Sitting outside and enjoying King Street can’t be beat. Every time we’re I. The area, we have to stop. Don’t miss it.

    Been there many times. Food was excellent. This is the first time I’ve felt rushed. I understand wanting to get people in and out but there was an atmosphere of stress about the servers. They were rushing about trying to get to tables in a way that was unnatural and nearly colliding w customers. We were told when our time was up and were served the bill without asking about coffee or desert. New management? Calm down !

    Very loud in dining room, hard to hear other people seated at our table. Wait staff seemed very busy and rushed us through our order. Had to flag staff down for water. When I did get someone they were polite but again seemed over whelmed.

    Veggie lasagna good, although not as flavorful as prior time we enjoyed it. Lacked a bit of seasoning.

    Overall the food was decent and our waiter was good but the timing on the food ruined the whole experience. I felt like we were rushed. Once we placed our order the salad came out immediately and within 2 minutes our main dish came out. So our dish sat there for 10 minutes while we finished our salads. To me that is super annoying. We will not be back.
