We had to drive down from Albany for a dentist appointment. I was hungry and talked my daughter…read moreinto trying this place. As she is 5 , she happily agreed. She was even happier when we received our food. Prior to that, after we ordered I got a phone call saying my brother was done and to come get him. I let Mary El (sp?) know that I had to run across the street and would be back. I tried to give her my debit card so she knew I wasn't walking out - and she refused. Ended up not being the right individual they called so my daughter and I went back. We absolutely love gravy fries and the gravy was delicious! I'm not sure if it's homemade or a pre bought one but I want to buy it for home . The mozzarella sticks were done to perfection. The chicken tenders were real chicken not that fritter nonsense that everywhere sells but charges the same as real chicken. We may have not gotten any staples- but all of these items we have had messed up at other places. The vibe of this place was so welcoming. There were people there who knew each other. It was such a hometown feel! If I could pick it up and bring it to my city I would.

The menu has many options, and I would definitely come back if I was in the area to try more of their dining options. I recommend you give it a try if you are in the town of Poughkeepsie. As always people SYOY!!!

My partner and I got the cheddar omelet and the house made corned beef hash with eggs (over easy). Both delicious and fueled our journey across the Empire State Trail Hudson walking bridge (which is about a 15 min walk from Alex's). Service was friendly and attentive and the space itself was spacious and hometown diner-like. I'd return back to try some of their lunch options too!

I visited for the first time with my son. While the staff was very friendly, the experience was…read moredisappointing given the $80.00 total. I understand food prices are up, but for a deli meal, the quality simply did not justify the cost. The Issues: * Overpriced: The steak sopes were delicious, but $19.00 for three is way too expensive for a deli. The spinach and egg drop soup ($8.50) was also overpriced and extremely salty. * Incorrect Prep: I ordered a "grilled" veggie sub ($12.50), but the vegetables weren't even grilled. I also asked for mozzarella, but they used Oaxaca cheese without telling me. * Hidden Fees: We were charged a $5 "suprema" fee for nachos without any warning. I also wasn't asked if I wanted to add fries ($3.25), so they were left off. * Health Concerns: I have diabetes, so the lack of calorie/nutritional info made it very frustrating to order safely. * Wait Time: The wait was ridiculously long for this type of establishment. The Highlights: The Aguas Frescas ($6.50) were excellent and highly recommended, and the girl behind the counter was very sweet. Overall: 5/10. The flavors are okay, but for these prices, I expected much better communication and execution. Why this works: * It highlights that you are a reasonable customer (you liked the staff and the drinks). * It makes it clear that the "Deli" setting doesn't match the high-end prices they are charging. * It warns other customers about the hidden $5 fee, which is usually what people appreciate most in a review

These things gave a nice brightness to the hero. The only con was that I wish there was a bit more meat in there. Otherwise, all the flavors married quite well together. The bread was also slightly toasted nice with a slightly crispy exterior. I would totally order this again if I come back. The order took about 10-15 minutes to be ready.
