We went for supper on Saturday pm and had great food amazing service and a fun time. The group had things from breakfast foods to amazing chicken and biscuits. Everyone said there's was great! read more

An acquaintance kept recommending this place to us so we finally came but didn't see the big deal. I personally think they try too hard to be hip/modern but they still retain some elements of a common hometown restaurant so they end up being lost somewhere in the middle and...awkward. Something about this place just rubbed me the wrong way. The calamari was really weird and all the food in general was weird and not at all satisfying. The burger we ordered was made incorrectly and the waiter gave us a bit of attitude when we told him. It was as good as a burger from Denny's or Ihop. Dry. Grease. Just a mound of bland meat between buns. Nothing was good. But everything was super greasy. I probably could've just let this pass if the bill wasn't so high for such a mediocre meal. read more

Alexander's Cafe, as well as the original Alexander's on 31 are both amazing places! Great menus, great food, great wait staff. Highly recommend either place. read more

Outstanding fish tacos. Three bursting-at-the-seams of fresh tilapia and yummy toppings and your choice of sides. Yum!!

This place was right behind our hotel, and it was totally worth the walk across the parking lot!! Reasonable prices and large portions justify skipping the free hotel breakfast. Don't miss the creme brûlée French toast or the Berry Good pancakes. Ask for Chris if she's working; she will take good care of you!!! read more

I have been here several times and the food is really good. The last few times my husband and I came for an early dinner. He had chicken and waffles and I had the teriyaki shrimp wrap. Both were delicious. read more

Best Chilaquiles I've ever had. Nice, clean restaurant. Sydney was our waitress and did an excellent job. I can't imagine anyone being not having an enjoyable experience. read more

The staff is super nice and helpful, there are tons of different options for food, the food and drinks are delicious. Just an all around great place to dine! read more

I have gone here for breakfast a couple times over the last few weeks and they have a great menu (I highly recommend both The Very Berry and Tiramisu French Toast). The place looks great since the remodel and the staff is very friendly. read more

Just moved to the area a few months ago and my fiancé and I absolutely love it! We have been there for breakfast lunch and dinner. The place has a really awesome look to it and is very clean. We love the mason jars filled with pop. That's totally our thing. On some nights there's a person playing the piano live and singing and he is amazing! Love love this place we have gone there over 5 times already. read more

Amazing!!!!! Alexander's is our new favorite restaurant for breakfast. We've only had breakfast here but we've heard lunch and dinner are also delicious. read more

Me and my husbands favorite breakfast spot :) I love the caprese Benedict and their chicken salad sandwich...my hubby likes their steak and eggs and house made sausage patties...two of our favs are the bartender Mandy and server hailey both always super sweet and welcome us with a smile.. read more

Stopped in for breakfast when my boyfriend and I werein the area. Our server Haley was so pleasant and was a wonderful start to our day. The food was delicious and came out quickly. The cafe was beautifully decorated and was warming and inviting. Piano player played while we dined. Def will go back if I'm ever in the area again. :) read more

I was so excited to try this place but was let down. We went here for lunch with family. First off, they advertise their corned beef hash as "homemade" and coming from the east coast and somewhat of a hash connoisseur I know that this was far from homemade. It was the canned processed kind with maybe some additional seasoning or onions grilled with it. Would not order again. My mother ordered chicken Alfredo and wasn't very pleased with it, said it lacked flavor, just a milky pasta sauce with no garlic. The waiter and mgmt were super nice and offered to replace it but she already ate a little and didn't want to wait for another meal and hold up everyone else. However my niece ordered the Mac and cheese with shrimp and it was straight up the best Mac and cheese I may have ever had. My cousin's and dad's meal were also satisfactory. I have a feeling this place has things they do really well, and other things average. I would go back again and give it a second shot, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend. read more

I've been going here with my family for the past 15 years. THE BEST RESTAURANT IN TOWN. People are always so friendly. Jackie (think thats her name) is the best waitress there. Ever since it has been remodeled, I have probably gone there a million times and she has been the only one to offer me bread when were there, giving us more detail into their food and even offering us the other breakfast menu when it is not breakfast time and asking the chef if he could make what we want. She showed us how to keep our pancakes warm by putting other plates over them and even offered to make us fresh lemonades for the ride home. Then another time we went there, my friend didnt like her meal that she had and told the waitress and she took it off the bill like it was nothing. Very very satisfied with this great restaurant & will always be a customer. read more

Food was delicious! I had bruschetta for an appetizer and the Asian wrap with chicken. For drinks, I had a Greek bloody mary, and tried the berry mimosa. I liked both! Our server Brianna was excellent, I would definitely come here again. read more

Great food and staff. The wait can be long at times for breakfast but everything we've had has been fantastic.

Alexander's is a great place to grab brunch during the week and weekend. Their food is always in great quality. They have amazing specialty pancakes and waffles, the Foster Banana Pancakes or Very Berry Pancakes are must haves! They even give you an option to have specialty pancakes as a side order so you can still get their full meal platters. Food isn't always as quick as small diners, but it is worth the wait. read more

I took a large group of family here once and the waitress looked like she had a horrible cold and the ventilation over our table was freezing. It would have been difficult to leave. We all got horribly sick with colds lost a lot of work and I will never return. read more

I was looking forward to the new Alexander's Café. The old place was just that, old and tired. Although everything about it now is new, I'm not sure I like the new look. It looks unfinished. I love the more open floor plan and they made good choices in materials and neutral colors, but there is nothing to give it personality. It's a very nice generic update. The totally empty walls need some help. Adding some simple wall décor with some sparks of color or metallic accents would definitely help. The food experience started off with disappointment. The salad came with some brown pieces of lettuce which "stained" the flesh of the cucumber slices sitting on top. I sent it back and ordered the Greek soup instead. The waiter came back with the soup and said the "kitchen" stated, "The lettuce was not brown, they use rhubarb". If they are using rhubarb greens, they better stop as my research says that the greens have various levels of toxicity. Is fresh rhubarb even available in December? I know the difference between old brown lettuce and fresh lettuce. This was old brown lettuce. The fact that the cucumber flesh was "stained" proves the salad had been made a long time before it was served. How can a simple fresh salad be so hard to get right? And don't put the cup of dressing in the salad! That is so unsanitary! The roasted white fish with asparagus was ordered but broccoli was served instead. This was quickly fixed. The asparagus was cooked perfectly. The white fish had good flavor but was barely warm. Hot meals should be served hot! Service was good and attentive. Being that this is a re-launch, the staff seemed nervously attentive in greetings and service. Calm down and act natural! Atmosphere, C+ Staff, B Food, C Prices/Value, C read more

One of our favorite places for breakfast. Between the two of us we have tried almost everything on their menu and have not found one thing we do not like. The omlettes are large and fluffy, the herb roasted potatoes are so good, the homemade sausage patties are excellent and the cinnamon butter on the pancakes is a nice addition, read more

Great service and food. Was surprised at the menu selections. Can't miss restaurant! Had lunch with Panini's and salads and were excellent.

Yum. Had the pot roast. Delicious. The Cafe in the name threw me off. This place is much more than a cafe with a full bar and large menu. Will definitely be back. read more

This place is hit or miss. I've been there over 10 times in the last year and my experiences with service and food quality is like watching a ping-pong or tennis match -- some days the food and service are great, while other times it is absolutely horrible. read more

Nothing compares to Alexanders. The remodel is beautiful and the food is delicious. They also have great bloody marys.

This is one of our favorite local restaurants. Great service, outstanding food and love the atmosphere. Whether we come in as a group of 6 or 14 they take good care of us. Very nice sized portions and great desserts as well. read more

I eat here about 8 times a year and always have a great experience. My favorite is the Greek salad with chicken skewers -- so much so that I have a hard time trying other items on the menu. As others have said, their coffee is excellent. Whether you're ordering breakfast, a burger, one of their specials or off the regular menu, the meal is always good. I like the eclectic mix of the menu. Service is attentive. I've never had dessert here but the display at the front of the restaurant is a great selection that looks like they would not disappoint! read more

Decent family owned restaurant with a local food distributor. This restaurant caters mostly to regulars and people staying at surrounding hotels that do not have transportation to go somewhere else to eat. The quality of the food is a little better than diner quality but not good enough to be classified as a legitimate restaurant. read more

Servers are very friendly & helpfull. Food is always prepared as ordered. Take advantage of the daily specials. They are very good & inexpensive. Would recommend for a good meal at a reasonal price. read more

What a great place. First time eating there. Very very good food and outstanding service. Our server was so friendly. Had the skillet with pancakes and hot tea. They serve Forte tea with all the accoutrement and it was quite unexpected. read more

We have been to Alexanders on many occasions, we have never been disappointed. The food and staff are great. Our favorite is the pot roast, best ever! Also love the prime rib. read more

I've eaten here several times since the renovation was completed & cannot believe I have not written a review yet. Shame on me, because everyone needs to know what a "Fabulous"restaurant, Alexander's is! The decor, the ambience, the "live" piano playing on the weekends, the amazing coffee, "intelligentsia" which I used to have to enjoy on my visits into Chicago, the fresh squeezed orange juice...the amenable waitstaff & managers ...then there's the menu. I can never decide because of the great selection. I look around & everyone's meals look SO "yummy"! I look around again, it's a Sunday morning, the restaurant is packed, people are talking, laughing, enjoying their meals & suddenly, I'm feeling nostalgic, I'm reminded of the big family gatherings we had every Sunday back in NY. and I smile. It doesn't get any better than this! Certainly, worth checking out! read more

WOW!!!! LOVE the Facelift Alexander's Cafe!!! A wonderful menu,,,gorgeous new ambiance,,,great relaxing soundtrack and superb service!!!!! We will be frequent diners here!!! Try the Bacon Mac n Cheese! FABULOUS! read more

Stopped in for dinner prior to going to a local fest. I was seated promptly (even though my party had not yet arrived), which was nice. Our server, Liz, was excellent! She answered my menu questions confidently, and checked on us 'just enough'. I had the veggie pannini w/sweet potato fries...which were outstanding! My friend had the veggie burger (my 2nd choice) and she said it was wonderful. The new décor is very nice. The restroom was clean, and what a nice surprise to see the extra touches at the sink (i.e. hand lotion, mouthwash, cups). We'll be back! After all, I need to try that veggie burger! read more

An excellent place to eat! Staff is great and the contemporary design is fun. Food was wonderful.

Food is just ok. But you can meet there and eat and talk and not feel rushed.

Food is good, service is questionable at times but they do help when they can. I asked for order of half potato skins and they did it no questions asked! And the live music is nice touch too! Over all its not that bad to eat here on occasion. read more

Cannot believe the remodel - gorgeous, although the piano is a bit over the top for its location. Food very good - loved the chicken and waffles - the menu is very different and have thoroughly enjoyed each item I've had. Clean as a whistle, good service, nice ambience. Highly recommend it. read more

Pleasantly surprised when visited recently. Have not been there in over year and completely renovated Alexander's Cafe was great! Food was very good before, but the items we had (Roasted Garlic appetizer, Baked French Onion, Meatloaf and Mediterrean Whitefish) were all suberb. Don't live in area, but definitely will be back. Our waiter was awesome-his personality, timing of food and overall service were great. read more
