A pair of waterfront eateries have joined the ranks of other restaurants across the city reopening for takeout and delivery.
Vola’s Dockside Grill and Riverside Taco Company, both located at 101 N. Union Street at the foot of King Street on the waterfront, are reopening today (Tuesday). Both restaurants will be open every day from 11 a.m.-9 p.m.
They aren’t alone in reopening. Virtue Feed and Grain (106 S. Union Street) just down the block reopened a few days ago and other restaurants, like Mia’s Italian Kitchen, have been open for the last few months for delivery and takeout.
The Vola’s carryout menu includes favorites like fish and chips and Chesapeake chowder while Riverside Taco offers — as the name suggests — a variety of tacos for around $4 and a selection of bowls.
Vola’s also offers a selection of cocktails, taking advantage of the new regulation, including a margarita-gram that can be sent to a friend in Alexandria.
Once the pandemic is over, the Riverside Taco Company will also be free to play live music on the waterfront.
