BRABO by Robert Wiedmaier

Critically acclaimed and award-winning Chef Robert Wiedmaier is transforming Alexandria's dining scene with his new Old Town trifecta. Adjacent to the boutique Lorien Hotel & Spa, the elegant BRABO Restaurant, casual and lively BRABO Tasting Room and The Butcher's Block, A Market by RW, our gourmet market, are each distinctive reflections of Wiedmaier's passion and award-winning talents. These spaces, created by renowned New York-designer Vicente Wolf, are as engaging as Chef Wiedmaier's signature cuisine. For even more ambiance BRABO features a rooftop terrace available for an exquisite outdoor dining experience, especially during summertime in Virginia. Here, the food and atmosphere combine with exceptional service for a perfect balance of rustic and refined, timeless and contemporary and above all, pleasurably memorable.
