Where do I enter the restaurant?
We’re doing our best to adapt to the ongoing construction project next door.
When you join us for dinner, please enter through the door on Washington Street. You’ll find our host just inside the bar door to welcome you!
*This entrance does include some short steps; for an accessible entrance, please continue to use our rear patio door and we will come to you.
Where can I park?
Due to the neighboring development project, parking for Thompson Italian has moved.
The best place to park is in the Kaiser Permanente garage on Park Ave, right across the street from our restaurant. Weekdays after 5pm and weekends all day, the garage offers free parking on the top 2 floors. Limited public parking is also available in the nearby business condos, accessible from Park Ave behind the State Theatre.
To enter Thompson Italian, you may use either door: the bar entrance on Washington Street, which does require the use of 3 stairs, or the rear patio entrance. Simply walk through the patio at Clare & Don’s Beach Shack to reach our accessible patio door.
Where do I pick up my order?
We now offer takeout parking on Park Pl along the curb. Please enter the restaurant at the Washington Street bar door and check in with a member of our team.
May I have my food delivered instead?
Yes! We now offer delivery via third-party companies: DoorDash, UberEats, and GrubHub.
When can I make a reservation?
Reservations are released 21 days in advance via Resy. Book your table inside our dining room or on our outdoor patio. You may contact fallschurch@thompsonitalian.com to book a table further in advance or to discuss specific questions.
May I book a group reservation?
We now also offer reservations on Resy at our large party table for groups of 7-10 people. These reservations will be seated at a counter-height table in the front window of our bar. All ages are allowed! The comfortable chairs have backs and footrests and are only slightly taller than dining chairs. For the party table, we ask guests to respect a 2 hour and 15 minute dining limit so we can provide all of our guests with a timely dining experience. For large groups, we request a credit card number to confirm a reservation and charge a $10/person fee in the event of a no-show.
Is your patio covered? I’m concerned about rain / sun.
Our main patio, which is seasonally available via reservations, offers shade umbrellas. In the event of rain, we reach out to folks with patio reservations to offer alternative seating dates, times or locations.
What is your corkage policy?
You may bring in outside bottles of wine that are not on our current wine list. We simply charge a corkage fee of $25 per 750ml bottle. Other than wine bottles, no outside food or beverage is permitted.
What is your gift card policy? I have one from Alexandria Thompson Italian; may I use it here?
Yes! We offer electronic and physical gift cards, which may be redeemed at either Thompson Italian location.
I love a particular dish/dessert/wine/cocktail from Thompson Italian in Alexandria can I eat it here?
In some cases, yes! We will have a few of our favorite items available in both locations, but each restaurant’s overall menu offerings will be unique. You can expect to see rotating, seasonal items at both Thompson Italians, but the menus will not be identical. You can check out our current menus online here.
