Mediterranean restaurant · Waterfront

"Inspired by beach bars (chiringuitos) along Spain’s Mediterranean coastline, Old Town’s scenic drinking perch makes use of retrofitted industrial freight containers floating atop the Potomac River. A marble bar splashed with oceanic and aquamarine tones is the spot to sip wines by the bottle and glass, with $7 pours during its weekday wine happy hour (4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.). The ambitious, pandemic-born project comes from Alexandria Restaurant Partners (Mia’s Italian Kitchen, the Majestic, and Vola’s Dockside Grill)." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb
