Where to dine in Oldtown?

[Swankalicious]

I'm looking for something new and delicious! I have tried the newish tapas-y place on King St (the name escapes me right now), the Flying Fish, and Vermilion. Is there anything else down there worth trying? So far I have only been happy with Southside 815, Hard Times and La Piazza (YUM!)

There's an Italian restaurant close to Stardust on the street perpendicular to Stardust and just around the corner, but I can't remember the name. We have never been disappointed there. Great service, great food.

You might be thinking of A La Lucia. food there has been excellent. in my experience, service has been.....interesting.

Eve and Majestic are outstanding

Other places to try:
Pita House - homey, Lebanese place on Cameron St
A La Lucia
Eammons
Stardust - lunch only - I have been disappointed at dinner
Rustico - impressive beer selection
Red Mei - cheap, Asian style takeout with delicious fresh veggies
Overwoord (where Ecco used to be) - pleasantly surprising lunch last week
Taverna Cretekou - Greek on the most beautiful patio around
Farrah Olivia

Still waiting for a chowhound report on Bastille. It got a nice review recently in Washingtonian, but I haven't heard anything here

I find it hard to believe someone named "Swankalicious" hasn't been to Restaurant Eve. Really, just do it. And Majestic is a good runner-up, albeit with a less formal vibe.

I've recently become a fan of Overwood on Lee st...still thinking about that roasted chicken with au jus...

Pending on what type of place you are looking for, there are certainly tons of restaurants you can try.
Restaurant Eve - definitely worth the price for fine dining
Eammons - great fish and chips
Daniel O'Connells - really nice Irish Bar with good food as well
Fish Market - not fancy, but certainy fresh seafood
Warehouse Bar & Grill - you should try their wasabi cruster oyster or baked oyster uggie for apps and their dinner certainly will not leave you disappointed
Mai Thai - if you're in the mood for Asian cuisine

If you're not stuck in being in King Street - you should try Momo's for sushi and it is off Queen Street. Also venture into Rustico - just right outside of the Old Town - their maestro menu are good way to try varieties plus plenty of choices for beer.

Overwood and Momo's are my two favorite at the moment.

Eve or Majestic win my votes.

There are a lot of good places in Old Town; can you narrow down what it is that you're looking for? Majestic is probably closest in terms of type of food to Southside and Vermillion, so you'd probably like that.

It's not brand new, but if you haven't eaten at Eve you are missing out on the best Old Town has to offer.

Stardust is supposed to be good but not right down in the King Street area:

Also, Eammons for fish and chips:

My coworkers say Ala Lucia is good. I haven't been yet.
