Excellent food...insane busboy

by dyurek

Yummy yummy. the food was fantastic and you really get what you pay for. Only complaint is the maniacal busboy that literally throws plates, silverware and bread onto your table. It's like a drive-by bussing. Very unprofessional. He also did not move the glasses to be refilled away from the customer which puts you in the line of fire for a possible spill. They really should consider either staffing more bus-people or explaining etiquette to the one they have. They were very busy, so getting so much as a menu took about 30 minutes.

Food = Great. Service = Needs much improvement.

• Pros: great food
• Cons: service and patio views of great Phoenix construction

Alexis is by far the finest restaurant I have visited during my 43 years in Phoenix. We arrived at 3:00PM, late for lunch and early for dinner, but were given the warmest welcome and the fastest service. The waiter was friendly but not overbearing. The food was delicious, they make great soups, and the price made me smile. Truly a joy.

• Pros: inexpensive, well prepared food, variety of choice
• Cons: , 0, 0

Before The Show

by mefinamore

Checking out their reputed quick service, we tried Alexi's before a downtown concert. In that regard, we were very happy. The fish was prepared wonderfully, but my friend was brought the wrong salmon dish. She was brought back the same plate, wrong sauce and all, with the additional veggies which constituted part of the correct order. Due to time, we didn't let them know that we knew, but we did. After dinner espresso turned out to be watery cappucino instead. Presentation and value were great.

• Pros: good food, value, great service
• Cons: inaccurate order, poor repair of order, weak coffee drinks
