We at OConnells want you, our valued customer, to experience the culinary arts of Ireland as they are today! To enhance that experience for you, we have created a modern Irish restaurant in an ancient Irish setting. The interior of the 8,200 square-foot OConnells has been salvaged in Ireland. It is over 350 years old. We have hand-picked millwork from monasteries, churches, castles, and estates thought Ireland and then shipped them in specially prepared containers from Ireland to Old Town Alexandria. We are sure that Chef Arras training in classical French will tantalize your taste buds and allow you to experience all that an eclectic restaurant in modern-day Ireland has to offer. The Irish have traveled throughout the world for hundreds of years. They have brought back to Ireland many flavors which were never before seen in Ireland. Our Culinary experts have taken these exotic tastes from all over the world and have created exciting menus for you reflecting the modern day Ireland.
