alexander's steakhouse

alexander’s steakhouse had excellent service. no water worries, and napkin folding when you are away. theservicehas marked improved over the years. the prices are expensive, making this a special occassion place. do not come here trying to skimp, save u

this is a super speciality steakhouse. i have visited a few times, both at their old location in cupertino and their current location. the decor is elegant and simple. the moment you enter you know this is a pricey place and it is true to that!

theserviceis very courteous and refined. they have an excellent wine collection and are able to recommend the right accompaniment to the main course ordered. i have had steak and lamb chops as main course and both were cooked to perfection as per my request. both times we ordered an assortment of sides to share and each of them was done very well.

the candy floss they hand out at the end is a nice touch!

overall a great dining experience, except this place is pricey! especially if you intend to order any of the japanese steaks, watch out 'cause they could burn a serious hole in your pocket!

how come i've never reviewed this place before? we used to come here often for steaks and mainly for their hamachi shots... ok and their cotton candy!servicehere for the most part is great! we've had some not so good services but the 5+ more great services out weights the 1 and 2. they have a good combination of land and sea choices with a hint of japanese, which brings me to their yummy caesar salad. it comes with 4-5 whole romaine lettuce leaves that are stacked and topped with a parmesan crisp, a 63 degree egg, and furikake and bit of parmesan shavings. i love it and always get it each time. the hamachi shots are also a must get when you are here. this 12+ ingredients in this little shot glass that comes together so fresh tasting in your mouth. oh goodness..i want one right now! we normally order our own portions of it instead of sharing it. it's really hard to share it. when we are ordering steaks they get it cooked the way we want it each time. on one of our visits we had the opportunity to have dinner at the chef's table which is located inside the kitchen. we were able to cook our own scallop for our appetizers which was fun. we enjoyed being in the kitchen being able to wear our own chef's coat and be able to tour the kitchen and how they serve and operate the kitchen. if you're ever in the area or need a place to go to celebrate anything, this is one of your options.

tip: don't get full from their complimentary bread service...

over-rated..dine here several times (biz dinners and good i don't have to pay for it.)   every time, walk away wondering why the steak is done so poorly for a supposedly well known steakhouse... ok, i cook very good steak.. just go costco and get usda prime and put on my weber grill at high heat w/ little pepper and salt...  always more delicious than over priced alexander.  servicecan be slow sometimes... hit or miss.  overall, just not impressed, and only go if i'm not paying for it.

the restaurant was just as gorgeous as i remember. i love walking into alexander's...i had no idea what to expect from lunch. would it be more casual? would it include an amuse bouche, bread service, cotton candy, etc? (yes, no, yes). it was certainly more casual, but not in a good way. rather than the precisionserviceone is accustomed to at alexander's (and any michelin rated establishment),servicewas really quite sloppy and off.

amazing food!!!. the food here is mouth watering. the hamachi shots are amazing, steaks are so tender i used a butter knife, wine selection top notch and theservicewas spot on. highly recommend

totally worth it. this is hands down the best dining experience i've had. the food andserviceare incredible! we like to go here for special occasions or anytime we want to treat ourselves and splurge a little.

this tops out high as one of the worlds best!. combo of french and japanese cuisine with ultra modern designs this is a true experience for all, it may be expensive. but its worth it for the quality of the food,serviceand everything is under the sun. i highly recommend this place.
