Delicious Thai street food & all the classics. Also high end cocktails. Highly recommend! Excellent gluten free options, as well as vegetarian options, and clearly marked.

Excellent service, amazing and authentic food. Call ahead because it is busy. They were super flexible with a gluten-free member of our party.

Phenomenal!! I am soooo mad I just found out about this place now that I no longer live in Alexandria! First off…the food…ohhhemmgeee! Sooo good. Get the pan fried chicken basil dumplings and thank me later…they are divine. I also ordered the little pot, which is a noodle bowl from heaven filled with ground pork seasoned to perfection… and GET THIS… gluten free noodles that taste like gluten filled noodles. Delicious! I left satiated but not stuffed. So much so, I came back the next day lol don’t judge meeeeee. Second, the service, everyone is so friendly and accommodating. The first time, I was alone and my every need was catered to. The owner even talked to me for like 15 minutes. The second time I came with my friend and her daughter. Now this place is small and honestly has swanky NYC vibes although dress is casual. I wouldn’t recommend bringing children, especially small children here. HOWEVER, the waitstaff was so accommodating, they held the stroller in their closet, made the chicken bao bun less spicy and brought out some potatoes (that were also divine) for us to enjoy for a kid friendly feast. We were the only ones with a small child and they made us feel so welcome. Third, the vibe is elegant, and chic. Nice natural wood, very clean. I felt like I was transported out of VA to a foreign place. The music is sexy, the vibe is sexy. Great chill date night or business lunch. I am very perplexed why this restaurant isn’t 4.8 stars or better. The food is magnificent and consistent, the service is unmatched, and the vibe is chic…what more do you want or need?! Thank you Yunnan! I will be backkkk

It reminded me a lot of Asian restaurants I used to go to in NJ/NY State. Food was excellent and so was the service. My husband very much enjoyed his sushi and I was able to have fried rice made with gluten free soy sauce. The hot Sake was excellent too. Overall, we very much enjoyed our evening here

Delicious food. Friendly service. We will be back when we’re in the neighborhood. Also gluten free friendly as the pho is made with rice noodles!

Sisters Thai has changed their recipes. They no longer do any gluten free curries. Please do not order online and call/speak with them if you plan to eat here. They can do Ka prow gf but couldn’t offer me anything else. Honestly, that dish was lackluster too as a meal. We ordered pick up and then by the time I got home found that the other dish we had ordered wasn’t included in the bag… prob not going to come back any time soon.

Great lower-price option for King St dining. Super quick and kind service! They can add spice to any dish even if it’s not spicy, too. I’m gluten free and got the chicken Pad Thai with a bit of spice added.

I’ve been here twice in 4 days and have nothing but positive things to say. From the friendly staff to the diverse menu, Gin does not disappoint. One of their unique aspects is their Japanese beer and sake offerings - you can tell the owner put care and thought into the selection. I’m gluten free and they have plenty of options to leave me full. I like to get the rice bowls with a side of broth and the shishito peppers. Gin needs to be in your rotation - it’s great for families and business people alike.

We were visiting Alexandria and placed a to go order. My husband raved about how friendly and helpful the people were who worked there. The food was absolutely delicious. I'm gluten free due to celiac's and I didn't have any digestive issues at all with their gluten free choices. We highly recommend!!
