" On the positive side, the staff at Alex's are wonderful. They made sure I was comfortable while I waited for my food. On the negative side, the food simply does not have the taste I'm looking for in Thai food—it feels more like Americanized versions cloaked in generic sauces. I ordered the basil fried rice, which looked great but didn't taste nearly as good as it should! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Alex’s was unique but not enjoyable. The food had a strange flavor that I couldn't quite pinpoint. The atmosphere felt gloomy, almost empty, and the service while pleasant was not enough to make me think this is a place I'd want to frequent. Looking for the next best Thai restaurant in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided on Alex's for lunch since it was recommended, but I found the experience average. The food was inconsistent; some dishes were tolerable while others were unseasoned and bland. The atmosphere felt off too—neither cozy nor lively. If you're expecting real Thai food, I suggest looking elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing mixed reviews, I decided to give Alex's a try. Unfortunately, my experience was underwhelming. The green curry was literally tasteless, and I felt like I was eating faux Thai food. The service was a bit slow, and I doubt I will be coming back anytime soon. Next time, I think I'll stick to my usual spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" My last experience here did not meet my expectations at all. I ordered the shrimp Pad Thai, and it was poorly executed—mostly noodles with hardly any shrimp. The taste blended together into something unrecognizable. I find it sad that such a place doesn't embrace the true essence of Thai food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying Alex's after hearing about it from a friend, but my visit did not match the hype. I ordered a vegetable curry, and honestly, it tasted like it lacked any fresh ingredients. The rice was overcooked and only matched the quality of the rest of the dish. It was cheap and I guess you get what you pay for. I don’t know if I'll be revisiting anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really hungry and wanted something different when I thought of Thai food. I opted for Alex's and was pretty let down. The drunken noodles hardly had any flavor; they were very bland, and the serving sizes were also smaller than expected. The owner seemed nice, but the food is what counts. Not likely to return soon. " (*Curated Review*)
