Friendly service. Appeared to be a very slow day based on other reviewers. One dislike I have in this area is parking. Ordered the Pollo Francese and it came w/ side of Penne pasta. Both were very good.
Very busy up-beat restaurant. I ordered the swordfish and my wife ordered the Mussaka (sp?). The food was phenomenal, taste and temp was perfect.
Very good food, prompt service. If we are ever back in Va, we will visit here first!
Friendly. This place is a bit of an odd mixture, looking like a modern dinner with classic booths, a menu strongly pushing the pizza options, and a very eclectic drinks list. I’ve got to say it worked for me.
Pizzas were original, the Diavolo tasted way better than it looked: chorizo sausage, French fries(!) and runny egg, what an unexpected yet delicious combination; the Classico was also anything but classic Italian pizza, great tasting and both with an excellent chewy base. Good desserts too, my Limoncello was light and refreshing and the Chocolate Molten Cake had the required decadent melted centre. As for drinks I found this unusual English Cherry flavoured Ale. Not as good as a Belgium Kriek, but close enough. And full mark to the restaurant manager for his friendliness.
Never disappointed!. This place is still just as great as I remember the original place in Springfield, from the 1980's. The gyro is / always has been my favorite meal at this place. Service was fantastic, food was great! Love it!
Best Overall. I am new to the Alexandria area but have already made Delia's my favorite hot spot. The atmosphere is clean and modern. The food is extremely tasty,served quickly, reasonably priced and there is a nice variety. Oh and if you are going to try dessert don't miss out on the pear tart - it is super yummy without being too sweet. Lastly, if you find yourself sitting at the bar the drinks come with a friendly bartending staff who will try to accomodate your random drink desires.
Gyro. This gyro was very good. The meat was so tender and it was seasoned just right. Service was good this visit.
Birthday dinner. I found Delia's while searching through the list for Restaurant Week in Alexandria. Though I've been to the Hoffman theater many times I rarely eat in that area. I was surprised when the GPS took me to this area. The selection of food was excellent, the atmosphere pleasant - small but comfortable - with great service. The food was delicious; I wanted just about everything on the menu. On a side note, the restrooms were clean, spacious and beautifully decorated. I hate going to a great spot then find a terribly designed or filthy restroom. Who ever designed the layout of the restaurant did a very good job. I highly recommend and would definitely return.
Good food but loud bar patrons later in the evening. Great wind selection.
Dinner and a Movie. Delia's is ideal for dinner and a movie because it is located feet away from the AMC Hoffman 22 theater in Alexandria. Plus, there is tons of free parking. The ambiance is romantic (get a booth), the noise level is moderate, but the food was just ok. We had the margerita pizza with green peppers and chicken and it was good if you're hungry, but not something I would necessarily have to have again. It does have a wider Italian menu, so if I do go back I may try the pasta or another dish. The service was excellent and the drinks, especially the pomegranitie sangria, were pretty good.

The True Story..... Bill Barrack must have an agenda.....My husband and I were unfortunate enough to be sitting outside next to him and his party of 8....then 10....then 12...men that took-over the patio lastnight.
I told a co-worker today that the food lastnight was wonderful, but there was a group of men that came and started taking tables from everywhere on the patio to accomodate their group. Then more showed up and they just walked over and grabbed tables from around my husband and I.
Later in the afternoon my co-worker told me she looked Delia's up on Urbanspoon. She mentioned that a man left a negative review from a large group that was on the patio. I looked at the photo and recognized the man as one from the group lastnight. I had to set the record straight once I read his review. His reviews are just not honest, including that he said the server "Barked" orders to them, they were so loud it would have left him no choice. We found the server very soft spoken, and he did a good job with such unruly people.
My husband and I will be back, the food and service were very good and it's a perfect location next to the movies!

Delia's offers good food and service. We've eaten here five times, and it's consistently tasty. Delia's chef is pretty great with presentation. Last week, we brought a visiting relative and her boyfriend to Delia's. They are both chefs, and he even has his own restaurant. When the waitress set down his chicken dish on the table, they both said, "Wow!" The menu is pretty big, so I'll give you some highlights to help narrow it down: -- The hummus (appetizer) is simply incredible -- very lemony and fresh. -- The Pollo Francese is identified as a signature dish, but it really isn't the best thing they make. Don't get me wrong, it's very good, but we wouldn't order it again, because so many other dishes on the menu are even better. -- My husband really enjoys the Bisteca Toscana. It's big and beautifully done. -- I think the Grilled Bone-in Pork Chop is truly unique with it's hint of sweet apple in the savory sauce. -- The Vitelli e Granchio is another favorite. The sauce is so creamy and the lump crab meat is sweet. I don't know why they even bother with the pork medallions, since the rest of it so so good. The decor in the restaurant is also pretty nice, but there really isn't a lot to absorb the sound, so it can get kind of loud when there's a full dining room.
Delicious, my family and I all loved it. Great food! Everything sounded great! We got a the chicken pesto pizza and it was delicious! The service was quick and friendly. Not cheap but not expensive.
Second visit. Very LOUD! food still good, esp the Cyprian cheese. Excellent service.
My whole family enjoyed it. Food was different than I'm used to but definately good. Tried a signature dish. My kids(4 &6) loved the ravioli-multicolored fish shaped stuffed with blue-dyed cheese! Service was great and quite friendly. Not cheap but not expensive. A great casual or slightly dressed up place.
Yummmm.... Got to there for my birthday lunch today. There where 6 of us and we ordered 5 different menu items. All outstanding and great service.....
Will be returning to try some more of the menu!
Great Pizza, Best Crust!. Really impressed with the pizza at Delia's, and their crust is the best I've had in many years. Paradiso, 2 Amy's, Matchbox, all have good pizza, but their crust doesn't have the flavor or crunchy outside - light and airy inside that Delia's does. Looks like there is a new Best Pizza contender in town!
Awesome!!. I have been here several times and I always make an effort to try something different. The food is great, the pasta dishes are delicious, and the appetizers are creative and tasteful. Good service, GREAT food, and excellent Tiramisu!!!
I would definitely recommend this restaurant!
Awesome!. I'm surprise more people don't know about this place. It is awesome!
What a find! Great friendly service. Excellent food selection and quality.
A Gem In Alexandria. Cozy, upscale eatery with comfortable seating and enjoyable background music. I ordered lamb chops with sides of potatoes & brocoline. Great tasting meal! Good size portion. I was very happy!! I would strongly recomend this establishment. The service was outstanding!!
Great food, not too pricey! My braised beef with cinnamon was delicious. They even have imported Italian gelato desserts. I had limoncello and got to keep the flute glass it came in. Waiters were very friendly and attentive. Plus no wait on a Friday night!

A Must Try!. Delia's is one the best places I have ever been to eat. I have been there several times and I can not stop going. To start, their drinks are as tasty as the sound and the bar staff are so friendly...great place for a date night drink and dinner after a movie.
Now let's talk about the food....ever heard of finger lickin good???!!!! I have never had anything that I have said..."it's ok" to. Everything is delicious. They have the best apps...including the Mediterranean Trio, Zucchini Fritters, and the Pizza Knuckles...YUM!
Then the Goddess Garfen salad...to die for! That dressing and the tomatoes and green beans...everything is always so fresh tasting!
Where to start with the main dishes. I have tried something from each part of the menu and like I said...i keep going back! The grilled lamb chops are like no other, the chicken souvlaki/gyro, and the crab cakes are among my favs. All so different yet so good. The pastas are made just right and the pizzas ..well you just have to try one. I reccommend the Mediterranean.
They have great choices on the kids menu and they are priced just right!
Now for the desserts.....yum yum yum! If youlike a good dessert this is the place to be. The Creme Brulee and Chocolate Souffle are fabulous!
You are never dissapointed at Delia's. The staff is great, the decor is very nice, there is a sectioned off room you could have a party there, they even have outdoor seating now, and the food is a 10!
You have to try it....I come all the way from Montgomery County, MD. It's a must try!!

What a place!. Delia's was just what Alexandria and the Hoffman Center needed. You can go casual or dressy, order pizza or some of the best steak I've ever had. I've been there so many times, I can't count, and each time I try something different; pizza, salmon, pizza knuckles, salads. I've had it all and have NEVER had a bad meal. Consistency. The first sign of a successful restaurant. The staff was memorable, as well. They are so welcoming, I feel I know them all by name. They were knowledgeable, and if I had a question they could not answered they checked, which is a sign of an honest restaurant. The bar is relaxing, and makes someone who would be eating on their own, comfortable and relaxed. Oh, that Lemoncello! One time, when the chef was told it was a very special ocassion, he actually came out to check on us. What personal service! Well, needlesstosay, this is and will be my favorite restaurant until they throw me out. Forget about Old Town. Too stuffy and expensive. Relax, eat and enjoy!
SIMPLY THE BEST!!!. My husband and I happened to discover Delia's one night when we were leaving the movie theater. What a treat!! We usually sit at the bar, and both bartenders make excellent drinks and are cordial to the guests. The food is always made with the freshest ingredients. We haven't had anything there we wouldn't have again.
This restaurant has replaced the Carlyle Grand as my favorite.
A Perfect 10. I'm not one to gush about a restaurant, but this was hand's down the best dining experience I've ever had. Superb service, quaint atmosphere, an excellent menu, and by far the best food I've ever eaten out. The mousaka is to die for - light, sweet, rich, and served with taste and elegance. It came highly recommended by our server Michael (about whom I can't say enough good), and was divine.
As a cherry on top, both of the owners came by to check on the progress of our meal, and were more than willing to discuss the restaurant, their chef, and any other questions we had. They were obviously very dedicated to their restaurant, and the fruits of their labor were evident.
The place is worth every penny. I will be back again and again.
Fantastic.. I've been to lots of restaurants that brag about "fresh ingredients" and the like, but never has the quality been so readily apparent. Delia's was truly a unique experience. The food exceeded my expectations, in fact, it blew them away. Along with fantastic and friendly service, it was one of the best dining experiences ever for me and my friends. I will be going back to Delia's soon, along with whoever I can coerce into joining me.
Good pizza. I've had several kinds of pizza but the Prosciutto White is my favorite, with ricotta cheese, prosciutto, pine nuts, and fresh micro greens & fig balsamic drizzle on top. Also good is the Pesto Chicken, Delia's and the Sicilian.
Chris. My husband and I stumbed onto this place on a rainy movie day last month and enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Mike our waiter added to the experience. We will be heading back with friends tonight.
LOVED everything. I'm a chicagoan who loves pizza and Delia's pizza was excellent. The service was excellent also. I totally look forward to going back again and again.

Delicious Food; Great Pre/Post-Movie Destination. My wife and I love to catch dinner and a movie at the AMC Hoffman Center in Alexandria. Delia's opened recently and we decided to give it a shot on a recent rainy Monday evening. The interior of the restaurant was filled with dark, polished wood textures and low, intimate lighting.
I must admit that, as a designer, the first thing I noticed was the tastefully designed and well-organized menu. Our waiter was friendly and solicitous, eager to explain the different specialties of the place. The Parmesan and pepper mix that came with pita chips (instead of something like bread) was delicious.
I ordered their tricolore salmon: it came on a dark, triangular plate, and was beautiful. The salmon was grilled to a mouth-watering orange. It was flavorful and moist, the kind of dish that makes you close your eyes with each bite.
After dinner, the waiter gracefully upsold us to have some espressos. They came in elegant, small espresso cups with a small piece of sweet, delicious biscotti. This was the perfect way to end our meal. I left the restaurant satisfied and smiling.
I hope Delia's does well - if its other menu items are comparable in quality to the salmon and the customer service is as excellent as what we received, it deserves its success.
Great neighborhood addition!. This place opened a few months back, and it's quickly become a new favorite for me and my husband. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the food is great. Go hungry, as the portions are pretty big. We've gotten the fish there a few times, and it's always cooked perfectly. They start you off with pita bread, which is fresh and delicious. If you like food, you'll like Delia's. It's also a great value for the food quality. A terrific addition to the Hoffman Center neighborhood of restaurants! Look out Ted's!!!
Loved it!. Romantic atmosphere, received very attentive service. The Tricolore Salmon entree and the espresso served with biscotti particularly stood out.
Awesome. Our first visit to Delia's was on Mother's Day and we were not disappointed. They had a few special items along with their regular menu. We can't say enough about the amazing food and atmosphere - we are spreading the word to everyone we know! The variety they offer will please any palate.
Phenominal. My family and I decided to have our Mother's Day dinner in this establishment. I've had carry out from here while working but never sat down in the restaurant. The atmosphere and service are absolutely wonderful. The carry out I normally get is also very good but the dine-in experience is definitely key. From their beverage selction to the extensive food options, everything here is amazing. Highly recomended and will be spending many of lunch breaks in this fine establishment. I also had the oppotrunity to meet the owner, very pleasant individual. So if you see someone handling food in a button up shirt and slacks, be sure to tell him how you feel about this joint.
Great food/atmosphere. First time eating there the food was awesome, service was great. The atmosphere is smooth, clean and light. The menu has a lot to choose from, a nice variety, pricing is also fair. The portions for what you pay is wonderful. I couldn't eat all of my food. Will be returning on a regular basis. Can't wait to try some other items on the menu.
Delicious!. My wife and I shared both the Delia's Deluxe and the prosciutto and pine nuts white pizza (that's not the right name, it escapes me atm). They were both fantastic, but the prosciutto pizza was the highlight. It was an amazing combination of flavors that will definitely be bringing us back. Oh, but don't overlook the red pepper and tomato "dip" that comes with the complimentary flat bread. I could have easily made a meal out of that alone it was so good. Lastly, the service was warm and the atmosphere inviting. It was a great experience overall. Highly recommended.
Unbelievable.... On all levels! I would not have enough space to write everything that was great about this restaurant. I have nothing bad to say about our trip!
Delicious Food and Beautiful Decor!. Delia's in Alexandria has authentic Greek and Italian dishes that are delicious, the restaurant is brand new and beautiful. It's location conveniently sits across from the AMC Hoffman movie/IMAX theater and is perfect for family's, a date, drinks before going out or before a movie!
I love the food and the great family that owns it! Can't wait to go back!!
AWESOME NEW SPOT FOR A FIRST DATE!!!. Wow, talk about a brand new little secret of Alexandria!... This place was phenomenal!!!... PERFECT ambiance for a first date!... Low lights, cool atmosphere, super-attentive staff... It was just GREAT!!... Food was FANTASTIC, & a bargain for what you get as compared to a super high priced restaurant... I ordered the crab cakes, & thought that I'd get mostly cake, not crab, but OMG... It was just the opposite!!! Plus, at any other restaurant, you'd pay at least double the price for what you get, so I was definitely satisfied!! On top of all that, you are literally next door to the movie theater, so if you're looking to do a "movie & a dinner" as a first date, this is the place to go prior to the flick!... HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Fantastic. This is a great new place. The staff could not have been nicer. The food is great. Small intimate bar just right for a night cap & desert after a movie. (Movie theater right next door.)
Great!. I went a week or so ago and my food was great! They have good drinks too and a cool bar area if that's where you prefer to sit and hang out with friends. Seating was nice, lighting was just right. I am not too familiar with Greek food either, so this was a great experience! I highly recommend this restaurant!
The menu was very well laid out and presented with a brief description of all the dishes, including the appetizers. The waiter was very knowledgeable . . .
