I had the churro French toast and added potatoes and eggs. We had 5 guys helping us. They were really busy but the tickets were getting done fast. Those guys were moving, food was presented wonderfully and fresh

What a wonderful experience! From the moment I sat down in this warm and cozy space, I knew I was in for a treat. I was already eating with my eyes just reading the descriptions on the menu, but when my dish arrived ⭐IMPECCABLE⭐! It looked just as amazing as the picture in my mind, and yes… it tasted every bit as good as it looked. A truly delightful dining experience!

Stopped in on a Saturday at 11 am and was happy to find no wait for a table. The Steak & Eggs Stuffed Avocado (no feta) wasn't really stuffed but was rich, flavorful, and perfectly satisfying. The Shakshuka Toast was tasty but was more of a tomato-onion stir-fry than traditional shakshuka. Still full of flavor! Just be ready to eat it quickly before the bread gets soggy. Overall, fresh, flavorful, and a great way to kick off the weekend.

This place is awesome, one of the best breakfasts we’ve had in a long time! Hands down best item was the churro French toast. Would get it every time we came. The brunch hash entree we got was also excellent and I’d get this every time as well. The Cajun Benedict I got was solid but not nearly as good as the brunch hash. The pancakes were solid as well. We also got an Irish coffee and man that was strong. I appreciate them making a true Irish coffee and not holding back here. Everything felt fairly priced and was delicious. We will absolutely come back.

stopped by while waiting for my oil change down the road... we were served by Horbelin. He did a great job, got our order correct and the food came out quickly. Everything we had was delicious and the price was fair. We waited a couple minutes to get a seat as the place was packed but worth it Will definitely be back here!

I had an amazing breakfast experience at Alexzander Breakfast! Everything was outstanding, but the shakshuka toast truly stole the show so flavorful and absolutely mouthwatering. The classic French toast and tres leches french toast were the cherry on top, perfectly made and incredibly delicious. Every bite felt special. This place is truly a hidden gem in Skokie. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be coming back!

First time at Alexander's and I LOVED IT. I will be coming back. For sweets we had the tres leches Toast and The Creme brulee Toast. For food my mother had the chile relleno she said it was really good. My dad and I shared the 3 brothers breakfast burrito it was practical to eat and it was good had a decent amount of avocado which I was so satisfied with. Service: Juan was my server and he made my experience very pleasant and helpful on food suggestions.

I don’t know who came up with the menu for this place but they need a gold medal or a statue. The food at this place is amazing. My server Franklin was also amazing. He was patient and well versed on the menu items to be able to help me decide what I wanted. Will definitely be back
