FANTASTIC food, SUPERLATIVE service, and alluring atmosphere! My smoking hot wife and I LOVED the beet salad, black cod, and the chocolate souffle. The amusement bousch and the caramel apple were also terrific! The surprise cotton candy was a nice touch as well! :) Service was timely, friendly, and 100% on-point! We went on a Tuesday night around 5:15 and had the place to ourselves until almost 6pm, when EVERYONE rolled in! :) We WILL eat here again! :)

Impeccable service and a highly refined dining experience. From a warm welcome and thoughtful seating to wine tasting guidance and attentive handling of personal details, every interaction felt precise and intentional. The cuisine matched the service level — beautifully presented fish, outstanding mushrooms, and an exceptionally prepared duck. A restaurant that clearly understands true luxury.

What a great place. I was in town for a wedding and the dinner was at Alexander’s. Incredible food but the service Frederic and his team gave was next level. So attentive, kind and made sure everyone was taken care of. If I lived within 200 miles of this place I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to have a special dinner here. Thank you for all the servers and employees that made this wedding dinner a special experience.

Among the many steakhouses in Los Angeles, Alexander’s Steakhouse has always stood out with its distinct identity—and it’s my personal favorite. From the ambiance to the service to the dishes themselves, everything is impeccable. It’s exactly how I imagine an old-school romantic date night would feel. Nestled right next to Pasadena City Hall, the atmosphere is elegant and refined, with a dining experience that feels like a ceremony. I truly felt like I had stepped into a classic film as the leading lady. While it’s a traditional upscale American steakhouse, the menu pleasantly surprises with refined Japanese influences. Here are a few unforgettable dishes from that evening: Uni Toast This was so good I’m seriously considering coming back just to take two orders to-go for lunch. Easily one of the top uni toasts I’ve ever had. Uni + wagyu is a winning combo, but the real star was the toast—layered, rich, and full of umami. Beef Tartare A literal work of art. Stunning presentation, and the taste? A solid 10/10. Kobe Wagyu The highlight of the night. No words needed for the satisfaction that comes from perfectly marbled Kobe beef. The six types of finishing salts were such a thoughtful touch. Maine Lobster Tender Boston lobster paired with a yuzu butter sauce—perfectly balanced and refreshing. Beyond the food, the cocktails we ordered—Make You Look and Blood & Flowers—were absolutely gorgeous (almost too pretty to drink). Even the complimentary bread was served with three kinds of butter, and we were surprised with handmade marshmallows at the end. Every single detail met the high standards of fine dining. Whether it’s a first date, anniversary, or birthday dinner, this place never disappoints.

Came here for our 5 year anniversary a day after valentines day. They still celebrated the valentines holiday which was nice. I booked reservations a month advance and only early dinners reservations were available before 6pm or after 8pm. Just goes to show you how good and popular this place is. Ive always heard good things from the one in the bayarea so wanted to take the wife here Everything from the hostess, the service, the waiter, food runners and such were magnificent. Fabian our waiter, sorry if i mispelled his name, was fantastic. Alexanders were giving out roses to each customer + they gave us a congratulations card for our anniversary Now on to the food, We ordered cavier, never had it, but wifey wanted to try. It was very delicious with options to add what you want on the blinis Chef have us 2 samplings of a cucumber pickle with gochuhang and black garlic emulsion. Was good but not my cup of tea The 3 types of bread and the 3 butters were delicious I forgot the names of it all but it was sort of a bone marrow honey, sea salt european butter and a semi cheese one. The honey butter was delicious and so was all 3 breads Wife got filet mignon and ingot the australian wagyu filet mignon. Both had chive butter ontop and i ordered a side of peppercorn sauce. Wife rarely likes peppercorn but she loved this one. I agree. The steaks were very tasty and cooked to perfection. I got mines medium rare n wife got medium. We had a side of the mash potatoes Which was pretty standard but still delicious We ordered soufle apple and creme brulee Both were sweet but not overly sugary They gave us complimentary strawberry cotton candy, cheesecake with blueberry compote and bon bons fark chocolate with side of fruit tarts Wifey loved the dining experience and the flavor of the food. Nothing felt similar in terms of flavor profile and the staff definetly made the wife feel special. Would come back even if its not a special ocassion
