The Alex at the Graham offers a lively atmosphere with great music and swanky cocktails, making for an impressive bar experience. The venue features live jazz performances from 7-10 PM, showcasing talented musicians such as a jazz singer, guitarist, and piano player who also perform cover hits. The bar area is tight, but it provides a great spot to listen to wonderful music and enjoy drinks. The cocktail menu is nice, with drinks like Marilyn Monroe receiving positive notes, though some reviews mention too much ice. Food options include light bites, with lamb chops being excellent, while tuna lettuce wraps received poor reviews. The vibe is nice and the location adds to the appeal, though the space can be loud, which might make conversation difficult. Service has been praised as great, contributing to an overall enjoyable experience. Despite some issues with staff attitude and discrepancies in drink prices, the ambiance and entertainment make it a recommended spot for a special night out.
