The food is excellent all around. Everything that I have tried - about 5 entrees and various appetizers - have all been great. Its got a very authentic and geniune taste to everything thus far. Its a lot better than other places I have been to in that area. Love the wines on hand as well. Pricing for everything is more than adequate, you can sacrifice two dollars and have a real meal or you go to Applebees.

A local favorite of mine

Simple food, deliciously prepared. Short and sweet menu options for your work week lunch time.They make a great Fritto Misto Caesar salad! Lovely pasta dishes, too. Clean modern decor. Professional wait staff.

DETAILS
General Info
Allison's Restaurant is family owned and operated by brothers Jim and Bill Hamrock. Jim has been in the restaurant industry since the age of 15, working summers as a teenager at Phillip's Restaurant in Ocean City, Maryland. He moved on to Amelia's, a fine dining restaurant in Crystal City, Virginia, then for the next 22 years as the Executive Chef at Pulicinella, an Italian restaurant in McLean. Jim went to culinary school at L'Academie de Cuisine in Bethesda. Younger brother Bill began working in restaurants at the age of 13. Despite warnings from his older brother of the rigors of the business, Bill attended the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York. Upon graduation, he started his professional career at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Tyson's Corner, Virginia. He has also worked in Nantucket, Massachusetts and Zurich, Switzerland. He came back to Virginia and worked at the Carlyle Grand Cafe and the 17th Street Bar & Grill in D.C. before opening his own venture in Arlington, Portabellos, An American Cafe. He is also a partner at Pasha's Cafe, also in Arlington. Jim moved to Crofton with his wife, Chona, and after 12 years of commuting to Virginia, he decided to quit Pulcinella where he was now a managing partner, and open a restaurant closer to home. With both brothers' experience as restaurateurs, it was a natural fit to go into business together and open Allison's Restaurant, named after Jim and Chona's daughter ( Bill's idea, even though he has 3 kids of his own! ). It certainly is a family affair, with Jim running the kitchen, Bill managing the front, and Chona working the crowd and making sure the customers are happy. It is their goal to make Allison's Restaurant a local favorite where diners can have great food with good friends in a comfortable setting.
