I love Alexander’s. It’s so nice to have a “diner” that has sophisticated food choices, some Latin influence and overall delicious food that is delivered by the nicest efficient staff in town. You’ll be lucky if you have Jorge as your server - he’s great! Alwxanders is friendly, sunny, upbeat and delightful. This is definitely a highlight of Skokie!

OK, Tres Leeches French toast what a discovery!
They are right by a busy parking lot and a lot of spaces around on the street to park. I visited them on Sunday afternoon and it was very busy. It took us almost 15-20 minutes to get a table, but I’m not complaining since I had good food afterwards.
The issue was their waiting area is by the bathroom and the dishwasher so you constantly are in middle of the chaos and detergent smell. And with the weather being terrible outside and you stay indoors, otherwise during good summer days it should be all right to stand outside.
Since we were part of the Yelp, I got my entrée which was chicken and veggie wrap and chocolate milk for my kid. However, we also ordered a desert and an entrée for my wife, which was beets open sandwich. The sandwich was all right, it was simple and fresh. Which is what it matters, right ? My chicken wrap on the other hand was a bit soggy, but the filling was really good.
Overall, a good place if you are in a Skokie area and if you’re wanting some good breakfast.

Salads are on the menu yet no salads available! It’s a Wednesday. Usually restaurants are stocked during the week. Something is up with this place. Anyway, the food is good when available.

Some of the best brunch food in Chicago! Amazing food and friendly service. Can’t recommend this place enough
Had such a lovely breakfast experience at Alexander’s Skokie! While it’s not a halal restaurant, they do have some really good breakfast options to choose from. I tried their Tres Leches French Toast and classic French toast — both were perfectly fluffy and indulgent. I also had the shakshuka toast, avocado toast, and vegetarian hash, all of which were flavorful and comforting. The eggs were cooked beautifully, paired perfectly with crispy breakfast potatoes, and the Americano tied the whole meal together for a truly wholesome breakfast. The plating was super cute, and everything looked just as good as it tasted. It was a great way to start the morning and definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area and looking for a solid breakfast spot. Would happily visit again!

Good is great but very difficult to eat when it is so cold in the restaurant that you cannot take off your coat

I had an amazing breakfast experience at Alexzander Breakfast! Everything was outstanding, but the shakshuka toast truly stole the show so flavorful and absolutely mouthwatering. The classic French toast and tres leches french toast were the cherry on top, perfectly made and incredibly delicious. Every bite felt special. This place is truly a hidden gem in Skokie. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be coming back!
