    Out uneaten non-cheesy eggs and super tough sausage.

    We went as a group of 5. My daughter, husband, and I ordered the "Wake Up Breakfast". My daughter and I ordered our eggs scrambled with cheese. When ours came we tried the eggs and noticed there was no cheese. When the "server" finally checked on us I informed her there was no cheese in our eggs. She replied she could check with the cook. She came back and told us he said he put cheese. Then said "he makes these all the time so there is no way he forgot". The sausage was tough, none of us ate it or the eggs. Drink options are limited so we got water. We had small plastic cups to fill out of a drink dispenser. I will not go back. Overpriced and overrated.

    The food & coffee was excellent, & the service was comforting. The cashier & cooks were kind & warm. The space is cozy & filled with natural light. A wonderful spot to sit & read.

    We popped in for breakfast one morning while on a weekend getaway and we had an excellent breakfast! We shared the egg sandwich and it was loaded with huge mushrooms, sausage, bacon, and two eggs! The eggs were cooked perfect and the mushrooms were amazing on the sandwich. The baguette was super soft and tasted so fresh! I enjoyed a Prosecco along side my latte! They have a few tables inside and outside, after ordering you choose your own seat. Highly recommend!

    After the farmers market, we went to Alexander's for a quick bite to eat. It was delicious. The staff was helpful and the prices were reasonable.

    Don't have an order window for customers with dogs if you're going to ignore them. See my prior review as the manager or owner touted this perk on a prior visit. I waited for 11 minutes, and watched through the window, customer inside being waited on after I arrived. Finally, I spoke to a male waiter that was delivering food to an outside table, and he took my order. Eliminate this service window if you're not going to wait on a dog lover.

    Slow Start Scramble

    We are visiting from out of town and wanted to try this place. The service was good. They were accommodating on changes to the Grit bowl (removing the bacon). The open ceiling concept and faux-wood tile floors make for a very loud environment. The service was fast and everyone was friendly. I had the Slow Start breakfast. It was great. The scallions and shallots really added a different dimension to the dish. I'd give it 5/5 My wife had the Grits bowl. She said it was bland lacking seasoning. The diced tomatoes on top were oily and bitter and that detracted from the taste. She gave it a 3/5 The specials board has a lot of interesting offerings, so we will be back.

    My friend's and I are on an "Alphabet Adventure" of Savannah's food scene. So, we started here on Sunday morning to check off the letter "A". We were super excited about this place after reading the reviews, but felt our experience was pretty average. Drinks: For obvious reasons, we first ordered the coffee sampler flight. However, we were informed they no longer offer this super cool option (it's still on the menu so, FYI!). So, my two gals friends settled for a lemon meringue latte & white chocolate mocha - the former is a MUST, so good. Food: I had the Full Breakfast - very basic IMO, so wish I would have branched out. One friend ordered Shrimp & Grits and it didn't settle great for her. The other ordered the Slow Start Scramble and she seemed pleased. We all shared the Baloo Berry Muffin, which was very sharable & tasty, but thought it could use some cinnamon crumbles on top. I would def be interested in coming back to try lunch or a coffee myself, as other menu items look good. Not sure I'd go out of my way to try again, but it's in a good location near Forsyth, so could find me here giving another try on my next visit to the Park.

    A cute little corner bistro, good variety of brunch options. Friendly staff. Food was decent for the price. Coffee was flavorful. Not an over expensive spot. ^However I'm rating this as average 3/5 for the worker that decided to touch my newborn without asking. Made me feel some type of way.

    Wake-Up Breakfast

    The service was amazing, the cook greeted us as we entered, and the food came out quick and HOT. The vibes were great, and the space was clean! I hope it was just a slow morning for them, but there weren't many customers, despite the GREAT food.

    Breakfast Burrito

    Good vibes, good food. This bistro does not disappoint, staff was extremely warm, welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu.

    Alexander's is a bistro that you should visit. I'm glad that I did! Between the great food, service, and location I only have love for this new cafe and restaurant. It is conveniently located one block away from Forsyth Park. So it is a quick stroll if you are in the area. It is right at the corner of Bull Street and Duffy Street. You can park on the surrounding streets for free. Local 11 Ten is across the street if you need a building to look for. They offer seating indoors and outdoors. From the outside the bistro looks small. But once you step inside, wow so much space! There are multiple tables, banquets, and a small bar dining area too. I love the large windows and art on the walls. The counter where you order is to your right when you walk in. There is a digital menu up on wall. But they also have paper menus as well. And large menus directly printed on the wall in front of the registers. They serve breakfast, brunch, lunch, and small bites to eat. For drink options there are coffees, teas, beers, and wines. We enjoyed breakfast on Saturday morning with the following: slow start scramble for each of us, a side of fresh fruit, dirty chai latte, & the Elizabeth latte. The slow start scramble was delicious! And beautiful to look at too. It is scrambled eggs, white cheddar, shallots, bacon, and scallions, on a brioche bun. I got mine without cheese. It is a lot of food. I was only able to eat one half of my bun. The one item I would not suggest is the fresh fruit. It was certainly not all fresh. We each enjoyed our coffee beverages. They came in clear mugs. These are my favorite! And gorgeous with an edible flower too! The service was excellent. Everyone was friendly. We had questions since it was our first time in the bistro. Our questions were answered promptly and politely. All of our food and beverages were brought to us in a timely manner with a smile. We were thanked at the register for coming in. And when we were leaving we were thanked as well. This new bistro should be added to your must visit list!

    TERRIBLE! Just kidding...and now that will be the first word that all eyes go to.... Joking aside.. All the reviews were spot on accurate. The "Baloo berry" muffin had the decadent crispy top, the inside was so (yes here i go) moist. No butter needed. The spicy turkey w bacon sub was made fresh to order. Even the in house bread tasted fresh. And the latte...uh may I R.I.P.. This place is small yet cute. Like a little French bistro...w/o the French. Im glad I went 19min out of my way of heading back to myrtle Beach..to stop for brunch. Pro tip.. Breakfast goes from 8am-11am. But pastries are served all day.

    10/10 - A Must-Stop Every Time I've been coming here ever…read moresince I was little, and it's one of those places that never disappoints. Every time I'm anywhere close, I make it a point to stop, and this trip was no different. I was driving back home to North Carolina and had to make one last stop because it's just that good. The food is always fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. The sandwich was perfectly toasted with fresh ingredients, plenty of parmesan, and an amazing sauce, and the fries were cooked perfectly. Everything tasted just as good as I remembered. Service was a 10/10 and wonderful seating options MUST GO!!!

    This place has gone from amazing local food with a South African twist to complete commercialized…read moregarbage. Local Savannah foodie pages have been saying the same thing for years. Even after the 2021 rebrand, it still held on for a while, but something in the last 5 years at the main office has completely lost touch. They expanded to three locations: ; downtown, Tybee, and Hilton Head, and in the process the whole identity fell apart. The menu has been gutted of its originality. The "OG" items are now overpriced, portion sizes have been cut in half, and the original sides that made it special are gone. What used to be a simple, order-and-sit-down experience is now chaotic. You're herded in by an overstaffed but somehow still disorganized team of high-turnover employees with zero consistency and very little emotional intelligence. There are always way too many staff for the number of customers, yet service somehow keeps getting worse. Last night was the final straw. We tried the Tybee location first, waited 30 minutes just to be seated, only to be told they were basically out of everything and could only do drinks. So we drove to downtown. Same exact thing. Out of sausage. When we asked if we could just remove it or substitute it, we didn't get a simple no, we got an "absolutely not," because apparently everything is pre-mixed and nothing can be adjusted. Even worse once we sat down. It took 15 minutes just to be asked for drink orders. A different server came over, introduced himself like we were starting fresh, and then got visibly annoyed when we said we'd already ordered water and a soda. From there it just kept getting more awkward. At one point he bumped my cup while I was literally lifting it to my lips and told me to "watch out" while he was placing food down. He took forever to check us out and finally bring our soda to go, and ended the night by saying, "just so you know I'm faster than the other girl," like we were in the middle of some weird staff competition we didn't sign up for. On the outside it still looks like a fun Savannah staple. But once you sit down, you realize you're no longer a local guest, you're trapped in an overhyped tourist operation that's completely lost what made it good in the first place.
