We went in on a busy Saturday night and they were able to seat us at the cooktop! It was dinner and a show! Great spot! We started with a house salad....homemade dressings! Cool and crisp! We both had a delicious strip steak special! Cooked to perfection! It had a delicious mushroom and balsamic sauce! Twice baked potatoes were delicious! The service was excellent! Our waitress checked in on us several times!

From the entrance to the exit, Alex's Place was up to the task. A group of eight they put us in a great space where we could enjoy the company of our friends in a an intimate fashion. Our server was attentive and accommodating. The food (masses amount of ribs) was great! Tender and juicy. The sides and apps didn't disappoint. The decor was charming! We are all looking forward to coming back!

Very nice ambiance... a little darker lighting inside, and nice decor. We were seated promptly due to the "call ahead" options which puts you above walk-in seating, which I highly recommend because they sure do get busy! Food was good. I was not 100% satisfied with the broiled fish & crab meat because the crab filling was still cold inside, but the server got the manager and they offered me a new meal on the house and took off the original food on the bill which was extremely nice of them to do. Will go back

Although the place is nothing fancy, the food was good! It was convenient to walk to from Batavia Downs . Prices are reasonable but I feel like they could have added a salad to the meal instead of making you pay extra since you only get 1 side and the portion is small . Service was just ok even though it was not busy at all.

Service, food and water atmosphere was great. Bacon wrapped scallops were so good that my husband ordered a second plate.

Finally got to check this place out after several visits to the casino right down the street . I didn't have a reservation, but they said they would be able to accommodate us at a high top table if that was ok . We said sure , not knowing that the high top table was located within an intimate cubby - known as the Hollywood Hideaway . My friend and I laughed so hard , it was not the atmosphere we were looking for, as we just wanted a quick bite to eat before our ride home - but we had fun with it! As for the food - I got a special that evening - Crab stuffed Haddock with a lobster cream sauce . Decided on the mashed potatoes as my side . Also they had a 99 cent shrimp cocktail appetizer, which was more like a shrimp bite ! I really enjoyed my haddock , but what I enjoyed even more was the bite I had of my friend's ribs . They were the most tender yet flavorful ribs I have ever had - no lie ! I'd come back for just those ribs . Our server was a nice young man , who even though he forgot our bread basket , he was pleasant and helpful enough. Definitely a good spot to stop if you are in Batavia - just have a reservation or you might find yourself sitting intimately with your dining partner lol

I have been coming to this restaurant for the past 40 years and have never had a bad meal here. My favorite is the ribs. But their menu is deep and there's not a bad choice on it. The ambience in the restaurant is romantic and intimate, and the bar area is more lively. For a change of pace, you can ask for a seat where you can watch them work in the kitchen to make their wonderful fare. The chefs are not afraid to express themselves and always have delightful and adventurous sauces for their ribs, wings, and special entrées. Service is acceptable and the waitstaff are always eager to be helpful.

I couldn't say enough great things about Alex's Place. One of the best steak, prime rib, and rib joints is hiding in a very approachable restaurant and bar. It feels like you are at home eating in someone's house which is a nice feel. It is a little dark inside, but they bring around table lamps if you need assistance seeing which was a nice touch I hadn't experienced before. We tried the French Onion Soup, Ribs, and Chicken Parm and none of it disappointed. The French Onion and Ribs in specific were the best of each that I have ever tasted. The Ribs had incredible flavor and fell off the bone completely with minimal effort. The flavor was a perfect combination of smoke, garlic, and barbecue. The Soup was perfectly cheesy, with plenty of onions and pieces of baguette. All the ingredients work together perfectly. The Chicken Parm was one of the largest orders I've ever seen. While the chicken was not as crispy as one may have liked, it still had incredible flavor and the portion was amazing. We had incredible service from the hostess to our server Danny who went out of their way to make sure we wanted for nothing during the whole dining experience. I think what impressed me the most was the speed of the experience for what we ordered. We got two large, well cooked meals and were in-and-out in less than an hour. The prices were fair for the quality and quantity of food that you receive in each order. Make sure you try Alex's next time you are in Batavia!

I like Alex's Place. Anytime we've come here it's been to meet up with friends and it's always been a good time. Tonight we met up with 2 new couples and we weren't disappointed. We had a reservation for 6 and 4pm on a Sunday which we clearly didn't need lol. The parking lot was more empty than not not that was fine. We got a good spot and headed straight to the bar for a drink while we waited for our friends to arrive. The bartender was very nice. We had a few rounds as we waited for the rest of our party to arrive and the bartender even looked up how to make a Vodka Collins for me. She'd never heard of it which wasn't surprising since it's quite the "old lady cocktail" from back in the 1950's lol. But she did a great job. Food: We started with 2 orders of the Philly Cheese Steak Crunch Rolls. They were great and il definitely get them again on my next visit. Whatever the dipping sauce was was sour cream based. It was very good. We also got 2 orders of the friend mozzarella. That was great as well. I liked that it wasn't plain old mozzarella sticks like everywhere else, but instead they were triangle wedges. The breading was very crispy. Panko?? For the entrées I had the bacon cheddar burger with cheese fries on the side, my husband had the prime rib with mashed potatoes, and our friends had a French Dip, a half racks of ribs, and one couple shared the Chicken & Ribs. All were perfect. Service: Our server for table service was nice but we felt a little rushed by her. She didn't even ask if we wanted to start with appetizers. She jumped right to the entrées. But I interjected and ordered the Philly rolls. Then my friend Da ordered the mozzarella. We all had a little of everything g and it was really good. But again with the rushing us, before our appetizers had even come out she asked more than once if we were ready to order our entrées. I don't like to order the entrées too early because 9 times out of 10 they'll come out when you're still working on your apps. Sometimes they come out 5 minutes after your apps come. So I said we'd need a little more time. And I let her know we weren't in a rush. She got the hint and gave us more time. About 10 minutes after the apps came out we went ahead and ordered. And the timing was perfect. The food came out 20 minutes or so later which gave us ample time to visit amongst ourselves. Ambiance: Alex's place would make a great date spot. The interior isn't too bright and it's not too loud to talk. Seems like mostly locals but that's good because then you know it's good. I'd bring out of town friends or family here. And I live in Buffalo so it's a good 30 minutes down the thruway for me. So that should tell you how good it is. TL;DR: I'll definitely go back
