Paige CMarch 27, 2016What an experience! Be sure to call ahead to reserve your spot. Sitting at the bar is a great experience and the bartender puts on a great show. You can't go wrong with any cocktail, their menu rocks!
P JMay 29, 2014Get a seat at the bar for a show and good conversation. Order something ON the menu. They've put so much effort into concocting those drinks and they are very VERY worth it.
natalie kayApril 21, 2016Amazing cocktails. Cozy - good for an intimate date. Trust the bartenders and don't be scared to try something new
Rachel OrrAugust 17, 2014My boyfriend surprised me with coming here for our anniversary. Such a cozy, secret spot. We tried so many different cocktails. Bartenders are knowledgeable. I felt like we took a step back in time!
madge faceFebruary 22, 2014Delicious cocktails, amazing atmosphere that takes you back to the roaring 20s: PX is the cat's meow! Dressing in period-style clothes gets you bonus points with the staff.
Willson BosiackFebruary 1, 2013This place is amazing. The bartender is one of the most knowledgeable drink makers I have ever seen. He is a complete perfectionist and you are guaranteed that your drink will suit you perfectly.
John KassMay 19, 2016Great cocktails. The best place in Alexandria. Try it. Amazing. I had the detox cocktail. Hard to get in here. Worth it. Very French.
Amy MiknisOctober 19, 2013Fabulous drinks and amazing service. Take a seat at the bar if you can. Watching the drinks being made is half the fun!
Claire MillerOctober 9, 2011Puts every other dc "speakeasy" to shame. After several visits and many cocktails, the best drink by far is the Cure All. The turmeric, basil, and coconut flavors are unlike any drink I've ever had.
Mark TegethoffJanuary 4, 2014Make sure to sit at the bar if you have the opportunity. We did not, but part of the fun is watching the bartenders work.
AliceAugust 9, 2014You can't go wrong with a gin and tonic here. Also, I love their "Dreaming of the Green Can."
Imbibe Magazine recognized PX for pouring some of the Best Contemporary Cocktails in the South in their March/April 2011 Southern Issue.
TopGolf BearSeptember 28, 2011If you’re checking in here, you obviously are cooler than most. Not as cool as this bear, let’s just make that clear. Don’t try and hang a sign up, they don’t like that.
James SondagApril 28, 2012Pick a spirit and ask them to whip you something up. Always better than the menu drinks!

Sam HMarch 5, 2015The cocktails are okay. They didn't taste that sweet but for some reason they weren't strong either.
Food & WineApril 21, 2011Todd Thrasher makes the cocktails at this speakeasy (there's no sign outside, just a blue light). It's owned by the team behind the terrific Restaurant Eve.
lauren shiptonFebruary 4, 2012There's a drink called The Ron Burgundy. Its not on the menu. Main ingredient is scotch, of course :)
Victoria WhiteMarch 23, 2010Try the Sweet Basil - Lillet Blanc, orange water and basil simple syrup topped with a basil leaf garnish. Sweet & refreshing
VenuDecember 25, 2009The Cold Buttered Rum and Plight of the Honey Bee seasonal cocktails rank amongst best drinks in metro DC.
Try the smokers delight or gazpacho drinks. Fantastic.
Gloria ElizabethNovember 20, 2011Knock three times, then twice, then three times again and finally give it a kick.
