What a wonderful restaurant. We had a lovely relaxing lunch here. The service was outstanding, atmosphere was relaxing and lovely decor in the restaurant. We had the platter of mixed meet and cheese followed by tiramisu, one of the best ever. Highly recommend not. I can't remember her name we had a few drinks ..LOL but the blonde one who gave myself and wife a drive to our hotel after ..xoxo

They don't take cards so bring cash, try the Greek wings!

I’ve been going here for years. Highly recommend any and all of the food. Without a doubt the best jukeboxes in the city.

My fiancée moved into Memphis Dec 11th, we were introduced to Alex's and fell in love. Rocky the owner might be the patron saint of Memphis.

Can't think of anything bad to say. Sometimes they've got Old Style from Chicago. Nice smoking bar w bar shuffleboard. Great prices. $3 liquor setup. Rocky is a great dude, super personal. Great dive bar. Cash only, but they have an ATM...but a $5 fee. Nice comfortable oversized old bar seats. Nice booths. Jukeboxes. Just super nice. Not quiet, but loud at all. Nice place to unwind.

Can’t beat this spot—quick to call it the best dive bar in Memphis; honestly thinking it might be the best dive bar I’ve ever stepped foot in. Cheap libations and excellent food—topped off by one incredible atmosphere. Cash only!

Dive bar, I didn't eat there but would like to try it, the atmosphere is what you want from a dive bar, hole in the wall, dark, cash only. It has those "vibes". I would have preferred more draft selections, but that's not what this place does. And I was just happy they had Coors Banquet bottles. Awesome little joint, so many people came around me ordering wings and burgers, so I'll have to go back and try the food.
4 stars because smoking inside. I don't mind, but I can't usually stay in those places too long.

No idea why it’s taken me this long to review my favorite bar in Memphis, but that’s what it is. Cheap high lifes, ciggies, and an insanely good ham & cheese sandwich. It’s the perfect bar.
