   Bar service needs to be polished, an order of a rosemary Gimlet could not be filed. Bar was out of rosemary on a Saturday night? The quality of the beef was excellent. True Prime Beef

   I Have been going to Alford since it was on Broadway. About 40 years now. This is the first time I went since they closed and reopened under the original owner. The porterhouse was excellent, the Caesar salad as I remember, I love the small bite starter. I would love to have the option of a baked potato with all the garnish, even if it was an up charge. The service was very friendly, however our waitress was serving a lot of tables, And was hard to get a hold up for water refills etc. She could not have been nicer though. The ambience is wonderful, I’m very happy Alfreds came back even better than before. I’ll be back! Thanks

   The setting is really outdated. The waiter was terrible, took forever to check on the table and kinda rude. The food was good, but they were out of all kinds beer except 2.

   Excellently cooked steaks in a classic atmosphere. Good value for money. Cocktails match the meal.

   Everything was fantastic! The baseball steak was great and Michael our server was an added bonus. Can’t wait to go back!

   I had been looking forwards to this dinner, and it was rather underwhelming. We won't go back. Ordering was clumsy, they don't allow ordering to share as a table. You must follow either the "full dinner" or "a la carte" options. It felt really awkward as we just wanted to order several things to share. Steaks were overcooked, and service was slow. I understand they have gone under a management change, so perhaps they are still working out the kinks.

   Incredible!!! Best bang for your buck in such a romantic and elegant setting. Fantastically delicious steaks, the tenderest filet tips in yummy whiskey mushroom sauce, though each perfect on its own. Being welcomed by the delightful host Al Petri sets the tone for a VERY enjoyable evening! :-)

    I made a reservation for one as I was traveling for work. I arrived a little early and was seated immediately. After waiting over 15 minutes for a server, I had to get up and find the hostess to tell her. She apologized and took my order. The hostess brought my drink - and then still no server. Finally my flustered server came to the table and apologized, saying they were short handed. The restaurant had a few larger parties, otherwise it was not at all crowded. Service continued to be slow, and I finally received my food, which was ok, but nothing special. The waitress did offer up a cocktail on the house, so they made some effort to acknowledge the situation. I noticed the Manager watching the dining room and checking in with other customers, but he never approached me. The final kicker was an 18% service charge tacked onto my bill. I always tip, and tip well, but usually only see service charges/gratuities automatically added for large parties. I addressed my concerns with the manager as I was leaving as I felt it was only fair to let him know directly. He apologized but with very little conviction. He made no attempt to make the situation right or ask what he could do to encourage me to return. I travel extensively for business and appreciate restaurants that treat single diners with respect. That was certainly not the case here. I won't be returning and cannot recommend this restaurant.
