Alexandria, VA – Not every new restaurant has an opening date on the calendar. Here is what Debby Critchley found at four Alexandria addresses in late October:

Rosie’s Tavern — 2018 Mount Vernon Ave. The former Thai Peppers space has received exterior updates, but the restaurant has yet to open. A November launch has been discussed; a firm date was not available at the time of the visit.

Flavor Hive — 3314 Richmond Hwy. The modernized Potomac Yard building looks close to completion from the street. The business website still lists the location as temporarily closed for construction and says a storefront opening is coming.
