Amazing food and service. I always passed by this place, but just now decided to try it and ... I wish I would've came sooner. Excellent meals, a menu that is filled with plenty of options, and the drinks and the bread we were served was spectacular. I would definitely like to come back here, and I love how the atmosphere brought out my creative energy as well. Excellent touch to a great restaurant!

Upscale dining with great food and service. The interior has a nice dim lit theme with soft upbeat music. They offer wine and spirits that go well with the menu. Plenty of parking available. Our table ordered a range of items and everything tasted freshly made, including the deserts. I would definitely say it's worth a try to anyone skeptical about its location.

Alex’s has become our new FAV! Went for a family dinner after being recommended by a friend and I must say it was more than what we expected. High quality service and food. The menu options were endless and flavorful. The drinks were on point just as well as the deserts. We opted for the Filet mignon, chicken parm, snapper, fried chicken sandwich and Mac and cheese for the kiddos who wanted a second order. Will make this a regular outing to try the entire menu. Customer service was at an all time high. Food was prepared fast and drinks were refilled without asking. If you love Italian this is your new favorite restaurant. Thank me later. Oh and please order the garlic bread. You won’t regret it.

Very recommended restaurant, their plates so creative. All 5 plates we had all were good and tasty. One steak was not like we ordered, and right away changed and brought another one. Even the chef himself brought it and asked to be checked if it is to our liking. And yes, it was perfect. Of course, I will be back

Alex's Kitchen was a pleasant surprise for us. We were in the area after another restaurant couldn't accommodate us. Thank God for that. A quick Yelp search led us to Alex's, and we're glad it did. The atmosphere, service, and food were excellent. We ordered Shrimp Scampi, Brussel Sprouts, and the rice balls (appetizer). We will definitely return when we're in the area.

Stopped in to place a take out order. The guy suggested the chicken parmeson. It was so good. While we were waiting, I had the blueberry lemon drop, well a couple of them. Yes, and thank you. I definitely will be back.

This was our first visit after reading about the restaurant in a local newspaper. My Date Night companion and I started with drinks. She had a Bourbon De Mure and I the Colonel Taylor Rye over a big rock. Our starters included the well made Apple Salad and meatballs & polenta. The meatballs were quiet good and served at a nicely warmed temp. Our mains consisted of Snapper for her, Ciopinno (fish stew) for me. Her snapper was grilled perfectly and was a meaty portion. My Ciopinno came out of the kitchen boiling hot, burned my tongue. It was tasty, soupy with flavor but a bit disappointing on the portion of protein. She endulged in a apple crostata. It looked great, she ate half and was done. The restaurant was mostly empty at 6:30 but by 7:30 almost all the tables were full and the noise level had increased. 4.0/5 syds #howmanysyds
