Reviews for Alex's Restaurant in McHenry, IL
Delicious. Great Chicago style Vienna beef hot dogs without inflation. We got 2 hot dog combos that came with fries and soda, we... added 2 cups of cheese sauce. Altogether it was $12. Absolutely recommend. Read more
Pretty good place for hot dog. Love their breaded mushrooms. In and out for lunch quickly and not over priced.
Absolutely the BEST Gyros, Gyro Plates, & Tzatziki sauce around. Pete does an amazing job in the kitchen! I've been going to... Alex's since I was a tiny tot when they opened in the 80s & will always continue to be a loyal customer. Thanks guys for thedeliciousness! Read more
Was looking for a good gyro experience and today I found one. I could tell when I walked through the door that I was in the... right place. 2 gyro rotisseries going and all brown and crunchy. The staff was older friendly guys who had been doing this fora long time. I asked the guy at the counter whats the best thing they had in the place and he immediately said The Gyro Plate. So when in Rome... We ordered and he told us to have a seat and in a moment our food was ready. A surprisingly large amount offood. The pita bread was soft and flavorful, the meat was not too salty or too garlicky or too greasy and the veggies werefresh. I liked that the meat was browned by the IR rotisserie and not fried up on the griddle. The parsley on the onions wasrefreshing as well. Large basket of fries that tasted like clean oil and potatoes. The tzatziki sauce was unique. Never hadone like it. Yogurt based but, really different in a good way. The inside of the place was clean and smelled okay. And oh,they have their own home made giardiniera. Didn't try it yet but, I'll be back for something that requires a little of that onit. Read more
We are looking for another boosted chicken place and we were in the neighborhood so we went to Alex's. It was just before... closing so too late for chicken but gave us the opportunity to order Gyros, fresh, and a salad. I have to say it was the bestGyro I had in a while. It was juicy and the bread was fresh and not just a dry PITA. Everything was good and will be going backfor the chicken soon. Read more
Best gyros in town, and anything else you can order is just as delicious! I have been coming here since they transformed the old... Beef Villa (I just aged myself there), and I can honestly say I've never had a bad meal here in over 30 years! On a side note,they do quite a bit to support the community, so I'm glad to see the community support them in return! Read more
This may look like a hole in the wall kind of place but its the one place that will get your order right every single time and... you never walk away thinking "wow that person was rude". I love coming here and am never disappointed in the food. If I'mfeeling indecisive they will help me pick something or suggest something new that I haven't tried yet. I highly recommend thisplace to any and everyone!!! (Also I've never gotten food poisoning from this place so go get some good grub!) Read more
Best gyro in McHenry County. Quick service, reasonable prices.
