The spot itself is unassuming: maybe ten booths and ten tables. By noon on a Monday, every booth and half the tables were taken. The place was busy! Service was excellent. I ordered off the lunch menu; my wife ordered off the dinner menu. We both demolished our plates. Wife had chili rellenos and I had beef enchiladas. We loved both plates. This will become a regular lunch spot for us. Really, really good.

We entered and no one says anything, lady came in after us waiting, shoving us to see if there is a list for waiting... like girl were the only two people in line. We got sat and the workers are very friendly, no problem there. Chips were good and came out crisp. I ordered the two taco plate. Taco shell was very stale, was very sad. The ground beef wasn't that good, chicken taco was better (surprisingly). Rice and beans were decent. Overall, didn't hate it here, but also not that great. There was a lot of people here and a lot of people waiting to be seated as well.

Queso blanco hot and delicious. Bean dip yummy. House margarita for $5, yes. And it's great and not too sweet or sour. Get the birria tacos. Or the guiso. And the homemade apple pie. Actually I don't think you could go wrong with any menu item. We met a couple who said it's replaced their Mi Cocina Saturday nights and we 100% agree. They're owned by the cousins of the owners of The Fifth and Shady's. Yall go check this place out, you won't be disappointed

The bartender was attentive, kind, and professional. The atmosphere felt welcoming, and you can tell they have loyal regulars, which always speaks well of a restaurant. The staff overall seemed consistent and friendly. Now for the food. I ordered the queso to start. The flavor was good, but it wasn't hot -- more lukewarm than fresh-out-the-kitchen warm. For my entrée, I had the skirt steak with beans, pico de gallo, enchilada, and rice. The flavors were solid, but again, the plate came out lukewarm. For a Tex-Mex spot, temperature really matters. I don't need it piping hot, but I do expect my food to feel freshly made and properly heated when it arrives. That was my only disappointment. I've ordered carryout before without issue, and because the service and vibe are strong, I will definitely be back to give it another try. I just hope next time the food comes out hot and fresh. Overall: great service, good flavors, strong local energy -- just room for improvement on food temperature.

What a pleasant surprise. We went to Hirsch's Meat Market to pick up a prime rib roast for…read moreChristmas dinner, and stopped by Alexander's for lunch. It is not a pretentious place, but small and warm. We were seated promptly, ordered guacamole for an appetizer, then chile rellenos for the main course. The chile relleno is the star of the show. You have your choice of three fillings, but cheese was our choice. It comes with the classic ranchero sauce, not some of the weird toppings I have seen at some restaurants. The chile was loaded with cheese, and cooked just right. The only downside to the meal was the guacamole. It was too salty. We like it salty, but this was a little much. It was devoured anyway, but just a word of warning to those who don't like salty food. The service was attentive; the lady pleasant. Bottom line - we will be back to explore other items on the menu. I hear the chicken mole calling me.

I ordered the nachos with carne asada. They came on a huge platter with dollops of guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo in the middle. They use the same cheese as the queso in a bowl so it's more fluid which I LOVED! The carne asada was diced small and cooked to perfection...crispy outside and tender inside with not a bit of fat or gristle. They were so good I couldn't stop! I planned on taking half with me but ended up eating practically the whole platter. Their iced tea is freshly brewed and is also delicious. I'll be back soon to try some of their other dishes.

Arrachera plate was tender, black beans and rice also deserve their special mention. It was so good all together wrapped around their house corn tortilla. The following day I ordered the Camarones à la Diabla. Spicy, sweet and tangy sauce doused over 6 shrimps served with rice and sweet plantains. Ate the whole thing then started dipping the complementary chips on the sauce although their salsa is pretty good too. Service was seamless and nothing to complain about. The room is dim but vibrant at the same time. A lot of family dining in during Friday early dinner and Valentine's Day brunch. I honestly can't wait to comeback again.

SERVICE: The service is usually the variable here; however, tonight was good. The waiter never told us his name, which is a pet peeve of mine but he was great.

The beans on the side are very flavorful and come with little chunks of meat. First time, we ordered their tacos and second time, I ordered their birria quesadilla. The birria was good, but very salty and already drenched by the time I got to it. I really like birria, but not a fan of my tortilla soggy and wet. Overall, we like this place and will probably be back whenever we're in town. Staff are friendly and nice. Both green and red sauces are good and a bit spicy. Definitely want to try more off of their menu!
