The first time I visited Alexanders Cafe. My server (Kassandra) wasn't very nice, I don't know what she was going through that day but my experience with her was not pleasant. Whenever I go to a restaurant, I always check the utensils. Mine were fine but my boyfriend's utensils were gross. So, we gave them to our server. We waited for a new set... She brought the food out and did not bring him a new set. 🫣 We waited and waited...(Nothing) I had to flag down a different server to bring us a new set, she didn't bring us the utensils. *Roll my eyes* So, I flagged down a bus boy who brought us a new set. When I placed my order, I asked for my hash browns to be crispy. It was oily and saggy. My biscuit and gravy had no flavor. My boyfriend seemed to like his food, but he wasn't very happy with our server. 🍴 The second time I visited, I had a way better experience. My server 🍽️ ( Rebecca) was super nice. My food was delicious. I mean, wayyyyy better experience. I recommend checking the place out. 🤘🏻

my 1st time here very nice, food was great, my waiter didn't introduce himself & didn't write dwn our orders I went with 2 other people so 3 orders all 2gether. he forgot my toast & gravy tht i ordered tht was ala cart stuff, but had he wrote it dwn he wouldn't hve forgotten.. whn i got my food unfortunately thr was a small piece of hair on my plate, I didn't make a fuss over it & just had my plate recooked.. whn the check came it was just over 15$ for myself not a problem but would hve been nice if he would hve taken like 10% off cuz of the hair. but no biggie I got fresh food. I was happy with it all and all 3 of us enjoyed our food and atmosphere, whn we were leaving a young lady was gettn on the piano & started playing CHRISTmas songs.. oh and at the end n the restroom thy hve mouth wash so u leave feeln fresh, I loved tht....

This is a very nice restaurant. Service was good and my french onion soup was to die for. The tuna melt was ok and did NOT like my cole slaw at all. My 2 year old ate all his pancakes and bacon (I asked for crispy and it came out perfect). My husband got a brunch burger and loved it however didn't care for the cole slaw either. My 4 year old ordered the corn dogs and fries. We all liked the fries but I thought the corn dogs were a little over done. They have tons of parking. A really nice waiting area with a piano and fire place. Both men and womans bathrooms had changing tables for babies which I appreciated. They also had mouth wash and lotion in the bathroom which I thought fancy. I tried the hand location and it was really nice. The lotion was non scented and very creamy.

Love the place! They always have my favorite soup; the chicken & rice with the hint of lemon like the Greek soup. There's always a lot of different items on the menu to choose from. The waitresses and bus boys are all so nice. I love how they always share a bit of their personal life with us. Food Quality is great. My family all enjoy our meals there. Oh, for Mother's Day, all the Mother's got a red rose complimentary from the owner's wife. I'm sure the owner treats their employees pretty well as I've observed the money spent on them. All employees wore the restaurant shirts or sweaters and were all very clean and not old looking so I assume they get new shirts to switch off more often then other companies I've seen.
