Service was excellent. The salad bar was fine, nothing special. Our steaks were cooked as ordered but very underseasoned.

I visited Alexander's last night based on a coworker's recommendation. As someone who travels to Bloomington twice a month from Texas, I've been on the hunt for a quality steakhouse in the area.
I chose to sit at the bar, where the bartender was excellent—attentive and personable throughout my visit. I ordered the 16oz ribeye cooked medium rare with a baked potato. While the wait time was a bit longer than expected, the real disappointment came when the food arrived.
The baked potato was surprisingly small, measuring only 3-3.5 inches in diameter, the smallest I've ever been served at a steakhouse. I finished it in four bites. The ribeye was a decent size, but unfortunately lacked flavor and had a grayish tint that suggested it had been previously frozen rather than fresh.
The service was the highlight of the evening, but the food fell short of what I'd expect from a steakhouse, especially given the pricing and reputation. I left feeling underwhelmed and will continue my search for a great steak in Bloomington.

Went there 6/6/25 for dinner. The service was great. Our waitress was friendly and fast. However the food was horrible! All 4 steaks were extremely undercooked. My wife ordered medium well, and it came out rare. They took it back 3 times. I ended up not eating because they brought mine out twice and never got close to medium. No seasoning or char on any of the steaks! The manager has no clue of how to tell if a steak is ready. Truly sad.
Very good salad bar. Great steak and service!!!

For a 57 dollar steak that I paid to have them cook. Their first atemt raw when ordered medium. 2nd time charbroil on outside still not cooked. Their was 5 of us. 2 of the steaks good. The other 3 not so much. To have that kind of food on a 250 bill pretty bad. Service was bad due to understaffed not really his fault. But still not impressed
