ALEXANDRIA, VA — Two more Eat Good Food Group restaurants, PX and Eamonn's, will close in Alexandria before July ends.

Todd Thrasher will close PX, a speakeasy-type cocktail bar open for 14 years, while Chef Cathal and Meshelle Armstrong will close Eamonn's after July 27, Washingtonian reported. Both are located at 728 King Street.

Thrasher did not renew the lease for PX, citing rent prices to Eater DC. The cocktail bar has a 1920s speakeasy theme and was one of the early adopters of the speakeasy trend. The bar is open to guests who make reservations.

Eamonn's, a fish and chips restaurant, had been a filming location for Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations, but the scene was cut. Meshelle Armstrong told Washingtonian they're seeking other areas for new restaurant concepts.

Just one Eat Good Food Group restaurant remains in Alexandria: Hummingbird at Hotel Indigo. Restaurant Eve closed last year, and the group opened Kaliwa, Tiki TNT and Potomac Distilling Company at DC's Wharf. Society Fair, a previous Eat Good Food Group restaurant under new ownership, also closed in July.
