Matt & Tony's, 1501 Mt. Vernon Ave.
Matt & Tony's, an all-day kitchen and bar, will feature Scotch eggs, crispy Brussels sprouts, mussels, burgers, meatloaf, salmon steak and all-day brunch items such as French toast, crab hash and "M&T's Rather Large Breakfast Plate" when it opens later this winter.
See the full menu below.
The restaurant, at 1501 Mt. Vernon Ave., is under construction now and the team has not announced an opening date. The building was once home to Fireflies and, more recently, Charlie's on the Ave.
Alexandria Restaurant Partners purchased the building in late 2020, but in recent months revealed that ARP may not have a hand in running the actual restaurant. The "Matt" behind Matt & Tony's is Matt Sloan, who heads up Mitten Hospitality LLC and who is also an Alexandria Restaurant Partners partner.
According to Northern Virginia Magazine, Tony is Matt's late great-grandfather, Anton “Tony” Schabas, an immigrant who was a formally-trained pastry chef.
Gage Construction is working on the building and interior.
