Review by Rozella Buckridge

September 23, 2024

The Wharf in Alexandria is a delightful seafood haven! 🌊 I recently enjoyed their blackened catfish paired with the incredible garlic mashed potatoes. The cozy, historic atmosphere made for a perfect dinner spot, and the outdoor seating was a fantastic bonus. To top it off, the chocolate lava cake was an absolute must-try - a heavenly dessert! The staff was friendly and efficient, enhancing our experience. Don't forget to grab a cocktail during happy hour! I’ll definitely be back for brunch. Highly recommend! 🍽️
