Alexander's Restaurant & Wine Bar

Another great dinning experience at one of our favorite places

We have been coming to Hilton Head for 14 years and Alexander’s is one of our favorite places to eat! The food is always spot on, friendly and professional staff, and the ambiance is perfect for a date night!

This was our second visit. We had a party of 6. The service was strange for all courses. The food/cocktails were not brought out for everyone at the same time. Most of us had the prime rib which was excellent. I had the spinach salad with a warm dressing. It was less than impressive. The desert menu was not at the expected level for this restaurant. I was surprised that the gratuity was automatically added for a party of 6. That took away the opportunity for a greater or lesser tip. Overall it’s a good restaurant but not great one.

The she crab soup was too rich to eat and the Caesar salad was not good. The baked flounder was very good and so was the winter salad.

Our dinner at Alexander’s was great. We had a table with a view of the lagoon. Our server as well as others who tended to our table was outstanding. The food was very tasty. We will return!

The service was great. Food was fabulous. Venue is wonderful with a great view. Only problem was our reservation was for 5 pm. We arrived a few minutes early, but were not allowed in. Seemed awkward to have to wait in the parking lot until the exact time.

Great food, special dessert for wife’s birthday. Beautiful restaurant and location.

Alexander’s has a small menu of reliably very good fish and seafood supplemented by imaginative specials. We visited over MLK weekend and met the new chef who has come from Fraser’s in Sea Pines. We ordered the baked flounder from the regular menu and the special of cobia. Both were excellent. The cobia was lightly blackened and served over tiny red potatoes, broccoletti, and shaved Brussels sprouts with a little crema. The fish was topped with red onion marmalade and thin flash fried strips of sweet potato. Drinks were very good and came quickly. Service was swift and unobtrusive. Decent wine list. This is a restaurant we will make a point of coming back to. It’s perfect for date night or to take friends.

We have come to Alexander’s the past two years while vacationing in HHI, and we love it. Everything from the cocktails to the food to the service is excellent.

Great restaurant for date night. Enjoyed the bar before dinner and service is excellent. The food was over salted this evening however tasty. We have eaten here many times and will again. This was the first time we were not totally satisfied with the meal.

This is are favorite restaurant with this being an exception. The daily entre missed the mark. I found it bland especially the crusted potato item. My partners plate vegies were undercooked - not yielding to being cut.

Food very good; good value for money as early bird - fresh fish particularly good. Only disappointment was the house wine. First glass was White Zinfandel which was ok. Ordered 2nd glass of house cabernet - it was very poor and she said it was a new bottle. The restaurant did not charge for 2nd glass so that was great.

Very nice dinner and ambiance. Only negative was that flounder was slightly overcooked. It would be nice to see a few vegetarian entrees.

First time at Alexander's and loved it! Nice ambiance, excellent service, great wine list. I enjoyed the salmon catch of the day special and my husband had the prime rib. Both entrees were hot and the presentation was excellent. Food was delicious. The chef even came out and introduced himself to all of the tables. Very personable! All around great experience. We'll be back!

Great service, great food!

Service and food was excellent. We’ve been coming here for years and have never been disappointed.

Food is very good. We had an issue...it happens.
Restaurant was not super busy, but seemed the timing of food service was off. This was our first visit. Maybe next time will be better.

Consistently excellent .
One of the best restaurants I have eaten in worldwide .

Good job
Will come back

We took our friends who were visiting us from DC. Every dish we had was terrific! The crab cakes were superb, the fresh local fish, a species of drum, was great, the weiner schnitzel, the shrimp and grits outstanding. Donna was our server and was exceptionally knowledgable about the ingredients and the preparation of the food and was super. We shared a very nice bottle of Pinot Noir from the excellent wine list. The atmosphere--we had a window seat in facing the lagoon--was delightful. This is a great restaurant and one of the very very best in Hilton Head.

Food was great but server was a little busy n forgot one or two requests. Didn’t get bread til asked for it. Things got much better toward the end w the server who was very appropriate n professional n s nice young lady! Enjoyed our night n there was good team effort n done quite well ! Would come again n bring friends!!!!!

Another wonderful meal at Alexander's. I had the chef's special and it was delicious. As always the service was great, the atmosphere subdued and relaxing, and the menu choices varied. Highly recommended.

Food was only ok - dining room had a moderate fishy smell and the AC was blasting from the floor vents. Service was good but we will not return.

Family together for a holiday dinner out.

We dine here every time we visit the island (which is several times a year). In part, it is because the house where we stay is close to Alexander's, but more importantly, the food and service are always excellent. We usually take advantage of the Early Bird specials, which we also recommend highly.

Came to Hilton Head for New Years week. Last dined at Alexander’s probably 20 years ago. Food and drinks were fabulous! Will be back here soon!

Very disappointing New Year's Eve dinner. My husband and I had an 8:15 reservation and we got there early to have a drink at the bar. The restaurant was packed, but it is usually packed on weekends. The holiday menu was prix fixe so it would seem to not be all that taxing. After our cocktail, we were put at a table in the bar and it was so loud, we had difficulty hearing each other speak. Our server (David) seemed rushed and overwhelmed. He hardly spoke to us, gave us basically no information regarding the food other than "it looks good". He MIGHT have come to our table three times. Our food was brought out by runners so he never checked to see if we were satisfied or needed anything. I had to flag down runners to refill water glasses. We never got our amuse bouche or party favors that were advertised as part of the evening. The prix fix menu price was $60 a person, and we ordered a $30 bottle of wine (which by the way was an EXCELLENT chardonnay, much better than the price point would lead you to believe. I am reluctant to put this because I hate for them to raise the price!) When we got our bill, the restaurant AUTOMATICALLY ADDED a 20% gratuity. We had no choice, it was on the bill. There was no mention of an automatic gratuity on the menu. So no wonder the server made no effort towards providing any real service. The food was really good, but our bill was close to $200 which would have been reasonable if it had felt like a fine dining experience. Unfortunately, we felt like we were in an assembly line. We hope to try the restaurant again to see if the service is better. It is a beautiful restaurant and the food was really good. Just expected better service.

We had a very enjoyable New Year's Eve dinner at Alexanders. Although it was busy with the holiday the food was excellent and our waitress did a good job of keeping things moving. I had a lobster and pasta dish that was wonderful and the desserts - a chocolate cake and berry cobbler - were both very good. It is becoming one of our favorite spots!

Great place one of our favorites on Hhi

We have not been here for a while and returned since there had been a new owner and wanted to try the restaurant again. The restaurant was decorated nicely for the holiday. The drinks were made well and our order was taken by a very pleasant waitress. We tried three she crab soup which was good but warm at best. Then we waited for our entrees. After an inordinate period of time they were delivered. They were not worth waiting for. They were edible but overseasoned. We were very disappointed and won't be back.

I ordered the prime rib medium and it was overcooked and brown all the way through and did not have a good flavor. My husband ordered shrimp and grits and his was very good.

We went for early dining and were seated overlooking the lagoon. Britt was wonderful … professional, knowledgeable and willing to share her insights on various entrees for decision making purposes. A very enjoyable night.

Christmas Eve dinner

We really enjoyed it and the food was good, service very good and the building was very charming and nicely decorated! We will definitely return when visiting the area again!

We were celebrating a birthday and come to Alexander’s for this happy occasion every year.
I asked for a table in the bar area (in my reservation form) was not given one nor was it mentioned.
However, they did know we were celebrating a special day.

Had such a great time at Brunch with Santa at Alexander's this past weekend. The food was fantastic, the staff was great, the ambiance was so festive and the Santa was wonderful. We will definitely be back during regular dining times and next Christmas if they provide the Brunch again.

We had a wonderful holiday dinner with family. From the appetizers to our main dishes everyone was impressed with both the presentation as well as taste. The crab cakes and flounder were cooked perfectly and the prime rib was generous. We will definitely be coming back.

Amazing cuisine, location, and service!

Britt was fabulous... and she knows her wines! Many thanks & Merry Christmas to all1 Cheers, Lucia & Gerry Bryson

Some of the best food we’ve had on Hilton Head Island. Service was friendly and impeccable. We will definitely go back next time we are on Hilton Head.
