"We’re finalizing our menu and getting ready to (re) OPEN in a few weeks!" That's the message from Augie's Mussel House and beer garden on King Street.
Augie's opened as a pop-up at 1106 King St. in 2018, then closed for extensive interior and exterior renovations. Those renovations are close to being done, and Augie's could open sometime in October.
The restaurant is hiring staff and front-of-house positions now.
The restaurant is part of the Alexandria-based Common Plate Hospitality company which includes Mason Social, Catch on the Ave. and Urbano 116.
According to Augie's website at www.eataugies.com, "Inspired by St. Augustine, the Patron Saint of Brewers, Augie’s Mussel House on the Patio in historic Old Town, Alexandria blends traditional Belgium cuisine with a modern twist. Our creative mussel offerings can be thoughtfully paired with one of our extensive Ale selections. Whether you are enjoying a waffle and frites or one of our many brews on the festive patio, Augie’s has you covered!"
