Alexander's Cafe - Elgin, Illinois

This was my first time visiting this location, and I have to say—it was a great experience! Our waiter, Tailor, was the best—so nice and pleasant. He checked on us often to make sure we didn’t need anything. Truly top-notch service!

Toward the end of our meal, two supervisors stopped by to check in, and they were just as friendly and welcoming.

Do I recommend this place? YES, in all caps! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service made it even better.

*Vegetarian* Must try the cranberry pecan pancakes, super delicious! Great place for brunch, with a very unique take on the omelette, i really loved it and thought it was great for vegetarians (*They say they use farm fresh eggs and not liquid eggs). Portions are more than sufficient, and the roasted potatoes are a must try. I’ll have to say, disappointed in the coffee. For a place with fresh eggs, fresh fruit juices and really tasty food, they did not have a proper espresso machine so the quality of my cappuccino was subpar.

Food was EXCELLENT. I love they they have an additional option instead of just the shredded hashbrowns. Love the roasted potato. I had the biscuit love and it was so good. The chicken tenders with it were juicy, fried, tasty, deliciousness. I tasted the turkey sausage that came with my friend's avocado toast, and it was the best turkey sausage I've ever had! HAS to be homemade. Highly recommend this place. The service was wonderful, as well. If your server was at another table, other staff members would check on you too, in case you need anything. Very efficient and friendly.

When I came here the first time, this place was so packed, so it must be good right YES you betcha! I ordered the skillet and a side of berry pancakes they were fantastic. The portions were amazing and the flavor was all there. But the most important part of my experience was the service. My server Daisy was so ATTENTIVE and made sure our dining experience was FANTASTICALLY AMAZING. Like wow!! Overall I will be recommending this place to all my friends and family!!!

This place is a true find! Our son drove us to my husband's doctor appt in Chicago and we've stopped here for food after almost all his appt! They have never disappointed and the bloody Marys are good! For
my husband and I it's to much food but that's ok... Leftovers are good! I can't wait for our next Dr appointment! Can't wait to see our favorite waitress again! I'm sorry I forgot her name... Old age does that LOL.... We went again today and had breakfast and it was great, again! Had Jessica as our waitress again and she was great! I finally remembered her name! She is known for her fun earrings besides her great personality! Thank you again!

Food is ordinary nothing spectacular. I ordered The Mexican Omelette and the eggs and hash browns tasted dry.

Service was good. You have to wait for a long time for the food. But the waitress was very nice and attentive.

Atmosphere was nice. There's something about those windows I liked. I've eaten at many other restaurants but I don't know why I liked their windows! 😂

Delicious food & great service! We always love going to Alexander’s! I ordered the chopped salad with grilled shrimp this time — loved it!

Came for brunch on Saturday. Party of 6. Waited for about 6 minutes. Server was very nice. Not super attentive. Only got 1 refill of coffee the most 2 hours we were there. The cinnamon butter on the pancakes were divine! We'll definitely be back!!
