    A absolutely spectacular experience. A few highlights: - Order the Manhattan. Well balanced and a double. Great start! - Oysters were phenomenal. They have their own estuary and it shows. The freshest we’ve ever had. - Caviar and potato chips were not only decadent but actually a great value. - Caesar salad made table side was delicious. - New York bone-in strip was perfection. Seasoning and crust were on point. - Creamed Kale as a side was spectacular too. - Bananas Foster for dessert. An incredible experience. Great service all along the way. Well done Tyler and team!

    My experience at Alexander’s was outstanding in every respect. Our server Robby was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and was able to help us make our decision, and the service from the entire staff was second to none. I truly felt like a valued guest during my dinner, and never once was a need I had not instantly met. As for the food, the Hokkaido wagyu was unbelievable, and paired with the Shiga Omi wagyu was a wonderful way to get a buttery, melt-in-your-mouth steak along with something so unique and special. I highly, highly recommend others choose Alexander’s as the location for a steakhouse experience like no other. Thank you to Robby and the team for helping my wife and I celebrate our special occasion with quality service and food!
