I love Alexander's. I have tried multiple dishes, and they have yet to disappoint. I love how I can put my down with yelp and try to avoid some of the wait. The staff is always friendly and kind. The food is always excellent, and it's always a good time. Even when the place is crowded or the wait is a little longer than you would like because you're starving, Alexander's is a great place. The people, the food, the staff-definitely my favorite breakfast place read more

My wife and I love this place,fast seating via no wait AP, good servers along with awesome comfort food. Go check it out..I highly recommend...... read more

This is one of the best breakfast places I have tried. It's very attractive inside and out. The seating is comfortable and the noise level is just right. But the menu is the best part. The choices are decadent! I adored the Creme Brulee oatmeal. My husband's cranberry-pecan pancakes were some of the best he's eaten. read more

Very yummy! I had the berry pancakes. They were delicious. Tons of fresh berries on the plate and the berry filling was just right. Huge. Plenty for two people! Hubby had the farmers market skillet. Fabulous and also huge. Loaded with fresh veggies. I am a coffee lover but have to drink decaf for medical reasons- very good decaf! Special shout out to Maria! She was very pleasant and sweet. Very attentive and helpful with the menu also! Can't wait to go back and try more things! Spacious. No crowding tables back to back. Fireplace was a nice touch on this gloomy spring morning. read more

Food is great, service better at this local dinner. The have fresh squeezed juice serve great bloody Mary's if you're interested and staff is very friendly. read more

So we stumbled on this place when my girlfriend had a dr appointment near by. While she was in her appointment I decided to look for a place to have breakfast near by and that's when I found this place. We've been here a couple times now and the reason for the four stars is because the service is inconsistent. The first time we went we had an older lady wait on us and the service was great she even offered us a cup of coffee to go which I thought was great. The second time we went we were waited on by a different younger waitress that wasn't as friendly. Also the second time we went was on a weekend and there was about a half hour wait to be seated which was fine they gave us coffee while we waited not many places do that. As for the food it has been really good both times we've been there I had the grand cafe breakfast that came with two eggs bacon sausage and pancakes. Everything was really good good but I thought the pancakes with the cinnamon butter where the best. The second time around I had the southwest skillet which you can have like that or add meat for an additional charge. The skillet was good the only thing I can remember thinking I would have changed was the salsa on the skillet was cold I would have preferred it warm. And of corse I had to get the pancakes with cinnamon butter that also come with it. One other thing I have to mention is the coffee is great also my daughter really enjoyed the strawberry banana smoothie. Lastly it's a great restaurant a little out of my way but do not mind the drive for a great experience one of my new favorite places. read more

The food was very good, and so was the service... and we went on a very busy Saturday. I highly recommend it.

This is our favorite place for brunch after church. Good food, good service, nice people and smart creative management.

Oh my god. My jaw is still on the floor. The orange juice at this establishment is OFF THE CHAIN. I know it sounds weird, but I would drive over an hour to have a glass of their OJ. Not to mention, their breakfast and brunch entrees are truly a delight. My biffy and I go here often and have not once been disappointed. The workers are some of the friendliest people on the planet and make me wanna smile during my entire meal. Alexander's is better than life read more

Good variety of breakfast choices and delicious food. The staff were very cooperative even during rush period.

One of the best breakfast places in the area. The employees are all very welcoming and friendly. The food is always excellent and there is a wide variety of breakfast and lunch options. Freshly squeezed orange juice made up in front as well. The portions are big and the pricing is fair. The wait is never too long and if you go, you need to try the cinnamon butter! Also try village squire (same ownership) for lunch/dinner! read more

Great Breakfast spot! Fresh squeezed orange juice and the cinnamon butter for the pancakes is so good. I believe i get some Mexican type skillet and its spot on! read more

Great place for breakfast. We have been going here since it first opened. The atmosphere is bright and welcoming. Food is terrific. The Cinnamon pancakes are fantastic. They have a pretty broad selection of breakfast items supplemented by a Halloween seasonal offering. Everything we ordered was served quickly and hot. Servers are attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. While we were eating Nick the owner stopped by to make sure everything was meeting our expectation. Nick has put everything together in this restaurant food, atmosphere and outstanding service. Our go to place for breakfast. read more

I've eaten at ALOT of breakfast places / joints across Chicago and this place is the best I've experienced. 6 visits in, I am now comfortable in saying WOW. read more

OMG best breakfast ever!!! Love the homemade turkey sausage and their skillets..My favorite place for breakfast EVER! We go every week..it never gets old to have breakfast food this excellent! They always have a monthly menu of specials you can try..this place is a goldmine!! LOVE IT 100 stars!!! read more

Fabulous breakfast! This was the second time going to this restaurant and both times were great. The service was very good and their breakfast was even better. Both times we went on a Sunday and there was a small wait, but so worth it. We were able to order coffee and fresh squeezed orange juice while we waited. The decor is nice and the space is kept very clean. Once we ordered, it didn't take long. Since it was Valentine's week/weekend they offered a free upgrade to a specialty pancake. I had the lemon blueberry and my husband had the cinnamon roll pancake- both were amazing! The manager walked around to be sure all was good. read more

Love Alexanders. The food is consistently good (both breakfast and lunch food) and the staff is always friendly. Great place for families, too. read more

From Nick, the manager, to Lexi, the server, our experience was awesome. We had breakfast tacos and Southwest skillet and they were delicious and piping hot. You have to try the roasted potatoes -wonderful. It was such a pleasure being surrounded by a cheerful staff who seem to love being there. Will be back--often read more

After reading all the reviews, I was looking forward to enjoying a delicious breakfast. Unfortunately the Caprese Benedict which I ordered was not very good. The poached eggs were overdone and the whole dish was bland. I will not be going back. read more

The food and service are outstanding. The fresh squeezed orange juice is the best I have ever had. If in St. Charles this is a must go!

I always have a good experience getting take-out from Alexanders, but today I am disappointed. I ordered blueberry pancakes. The blueberries were raw and not in the pancakes. Also, when you give 4 pancakes there should be more syrup than a tiny condiment container. I am also disappointed that they put the butter in my container because when I opened it, it was melted and that is not okay. Sadly, I do not think I will be ordering takeout from here again anytime soon. read more

great breakfast, the best in the area. Everything I have ordered has been really good.

Ate at Alexander's for lunch this week. Server was attentive, portion sizes were large enough that we both took home leftovers. As always, the owners deliver on making delicious food. Like the new layout of the restaurant, have been waiting for them to re-open, we'll be back soon. read more

THE best breakfast restaurant around! Hooked on their corned beef hash skillet, every. Single. Time. Lots of creative menu choices. Just also tried them for lunch, and was equally impressed. The fish sandwich was mouthwatering, and their sadly named "wurst burger" with bratwurst meat from Reems on a pretzel bun was amazing. Should call it the Best Of the Wurst" burger! I can't get enough of this place!! Even their coffee is great, and you can get Bloody Mary's and Mimosas with breakfast. read more

Went here for the first time today. it was good food with friendly service as expected after being to the one in Elgin. Thank you!

The 5 stars is for the N.O.L.A. omelette, which has shrimp, garlic cheese, diced tomatoes, scallions with a hollandaise sauce smothered over the top of this extremely yummy omelette. The bad thing is that the restaurant only serves the N.O.L.A. omelette for 10 days each year, just before lent. Without this dish on its menu the remainder of the year, Alexander's Cafe is just another breakfast place. BTW, service was good and friendly. read more

Attended for brunch on a Sunday. It was packed. Food was OK, service was OK. Our wait was around 20 minutes at 11am. We haven't been back. Nothing against the place, everyone was a little harassed and it did look a bit disorganized, there just wasn't enough of a "wow" factor to compel us to come back. read more

Super breakfast spot. Whenever I'm hungry and in the area I will surely stop in again

Great food. Awesome food actually so much variety and fresh selections. I Consider myself a foodie and was waiting for alexanders to open. I was greatly satisfied upon there grand opening. Super fresh and definitely a "go to" in Saint Charles . My dining experience was over and beyond great. I have to mention the staff very friendly and my server Andrea was fantastic and fun. You can tell they are very busy and she made my stay over and beyond a dining experience. I can't wait to go back. read more

Super friendly staff welcomed us for the grand opening, great customer service by everyone we talked to, and the owner even came by a couple times to make sure everything was good! Lots of variety on both their food and drink menus- the southwest skillet and the farmer's market skillet were both awesome, as was the Popeye omelette and the coffee as well! Definitely coming back here! read more

Stopped in for lunch at 12:20 p.m. place was jumping. Jeff the host said it would be about 10 minute wait. Actual wait time less than that. Tables were moving and he got to seat us the right away. First time here at the restaurant, I ordered the Reuben sandwich like to order that to test out a restaurant. My dining partner ordered a chicken. Both sandwiches came with fries. Got our drinks meal showed up 10 minutes after. Reuben sandwich was awesome. They fried the corned beef on the grill before putting it on a sandwich just the right amount of sauerkraut and thousand island dressing served on marble rye the side of seasoned fries was great. The chicken wrap was gigantic about a round as a soup can and twice as long my partner could not finish the meal there was so much there. Dining staff was great for refilling our drinks got in and got out in a half hour real nice place to go to. Nice size restaurant, but parking was very small in the lot attached, had to park in the extended parking lot what was marked with signs. Would definitely stop here again. read more

When my friend asked me if I wanted to come with her to this restaurant, I said sure because I had heard how good this place is. When you enter the restaurant, they have it all decorated for the fall and smiling staff members greet you. The interior is very cozy and family styled. The staff take you to the many seats in the restaurant, and the orange juice I ordered was amazing. They freshly squeeze it every day. I got a traditional breakfast, and it came quickly and without delay, and our server was very patient. The hash-browns in my meal were in a massive portion, very crispy and delicious. The eggs were also amazing along with their bacon and pancakes. The cinnamon butter for their fall specials was terrific. We were not rushed to finish quickly and the manager came by to see how we were doing. When we were finished, we payed and left, and I overall had a very pleasant experience. I definitely recommend this place! read more
