First time visiting Table Talk even though I have driven past it several times. Table Talk seems…read morelike a local spot with faithful returning patrons. The restaurant has a small parking lot. When you enter you have plenty of seating but it is seat yourself. There was not a breakfast combo that includes sides but you can order a combo that includes eggs, potatoes and a meat. I ordered a half stack of pancakes which I thought would be mini instead they were as big as the plate itself. The potatoes were okay. Definitely needed more seasoning. Some of the larger pieces of the potato were not as well cooked either. The eggs were decent, again needed some more seasoning. Service was quick and overall I enjoyed the pancake which was big enough for two people.

I went with a bowl of the chicken corn chowder, which was very tasty! The small Caesar sad was lacking. Overall, it's a great spot for a casual lunch.

So, when I was in the Arlington area and needed to kill some time, I stopped in here because they opened early and I needed to have lunch done by 11AM. They offer pizza, subs, and salads. I opted for their chicken parm sub, as it came with pesto, as well as marinara on it, and I love both of those sauces. The bread was amazing on it! The chicken was perfect size and thickness for a sandwich and the breading and flavor was great. The entire sandwich came together perfectly! As for this venue, it's carryout only, so no seating inside, but there are tables outside along the sidewalk where I sat and ate my food. Overall I thought this was really good! I would definitely return and recommend them!

We were not the only people back for a second night which speaks volumes. The gentleman from the night before made recommendations for me that were Celiac safe. He even recommended subbing out a sauce on one of the pasta dishes. Best advice EVER!! The pesto penne accompanying my baked salmon was absolutely to die for. Also, yes, the gluten free pasta is made in house!! We sat on the first floor and had great views of restaurant row while we ate. I truly cannot recommend La Bettola enough.

Think Olive Garden, but with mostly better food and much better service…read more We started by splitting the Clams Casino and Stuffed Mushrooms. The Clams Casino was a bit disappointing--the clams were almost nonexistent--but the bacon added plenty of flavor and was quite tasty. For my entrée, I ordered the veal Parmesan with the optional Caesar salad. The veal itself was a thin, overcooked cut, but the breading still had a slight crispness and was topped with a generous layer of melted cheese. It came with a separate plate of properly cooked pasta covered in a flavorful marinara sauce. My only real disappointment was the salad. For the additional $5, I received little more than a handful of lettuce with a small container of dressing that wasn't really Caesar and wasn't particularly good. Nothing here is gourmet, but aside from the salad, the portions were generous, the food was satisfying, and the service was excellent.

Bob & Edith's Diner - Old Town Alexandria, King Street Metro…read more Heading to Newport News, I had booked an Amtrak Regional set to leave Alexandria, Virginia's King Street Station at 7:15 a.m. The Amtrak station shares the same footprint as the Metro Blue and Yellow rail lines and bus lines served by DASH (free) and WMATA Metro Bus (fare charged). My train's departure wasn't until 7:15 a.m. and at 5:45 a.m. the Lyft driver dropped me off at the Amtrak station, which is not open until 6 a.m. With at least an hour of waiting time, I headed a block down King Street to see what breakfast was like at Bob & Edith's Diner, located at 1743 King St, Alexandria, VA 22314. This early in the morning, the sidewalks and streets were pretty much empty, save for one of those large tourist buses that was parked in front of the restaurant, empty. I'm guessing the only customer in the restaurant other than me was the bus operator, busy reading a newspaper over coffee. My goal was to order a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on a Philly sub roll ($9.99) to take with me on the train. The menu - featuring all manner of comfort food for any meal - was impressive. The dining area and restrooms were clean and spacious; service was attentive without being intrusive, and noise levels were low enough to allow inside-voice conversations. The sandwich was wrapped to go and smelled heavenly at 6 a.m. After boarding my train I headed to the café car, bought an orange juice, and sat down to eat the sandwich. Still warm, the meal was perfect! I've lived in Alexandria for about 15 years, and this is the first time I'd visited Bob & Edith's Diner under its current management. There are enough menu variations that I likely will make this a go-to stop for my train travel. Well done!

I paid him without thinking then did the math again. I said shouldn't that be about $44? He looked annoyed then pulled cash out of his pocket and gave me $12 back. Should have left then too. We sat and he brought 2 plates, one Marsala and one bowl of spaghetti with sauce. I looked for the chicken and asked, should t this be chicken parm? He angrily told me that the spaghetti was for my wife and to "calm down". 10 minutes later he brought deep fried chicken parm. Neither dish was good. The Marsala was floating in oil. Plastic utensils only, the place was dirty and generally unkept. Save your money, don't go.
