Alexander’s Restaurant

Stopped by this place on the way home from work as I felt like having a nice quiet dinner and because I’ve seen the huge BURGERS sign from the street for at least 5 – 6 years now and thinking to myself every time that I should really give this place a try.
Ordered the daily special, which came with seasoned fries and a drink (I chose hot tea). The special was a homeburger with bacon and cheese. After taxes it came to about 10 bucks. Not really cheap, though not exactly wallet-​breaking either.
As for the food, well this is where it gets disappointing. The meat was bland, slightly too well-​done, and the whole meal tasted greasy but not tasty. It was very meh, not anything really wrong with it, but there was nothing to lift it out of mediocrity. The seasoned fries were kind of nice but also tasted flat. If the price was about 1 – 2 dollars cheaper, this place would get an additional star, but in the end it wasn’t a very good value for money.
Still, the kitchen staff were very friendly and welcoming, and I could tell this place has its share of regulars so it really can’t be all bad. The interior was very dated, but in a way that is its own charm.
It’s alright. I would REALLY actually give it 2.5 stars but Unilocal wouldn’t let me: S
Pay this place a visit if you got a jonesin’ for some meaty, grilled, but rather unseasoned burgers (yknow…the real CANADIAN way). Otherwise you could do better.
