My
sister
and
I
wanted
to
celebrate
our
birthday
with
steaks!
We
decided
to
go
to
Alexander’s
in
Normal
on
our
bday.
We
were
super
excited
to
learn
they
were
open
for
lunch
on
Saturdays.
We
had
not
been
there
in
a
number
of
years
and
it
looks
like
the
dining
room
has
not
been
updated
in
a
number
of
years.
Carpet,
table,
chairs
were
outdated.
The
dinning
room
was
dimly
lit
and
not
very
inviting.
We
were
one
of
three
tables
in
the
entire
restaurant
and
the
service
was
excoriating
slow.
First
they
sat
us
right
next
to
another
table
which
was
odd
because
the
restaurant
was
empty.
It
took
forever
for
our
server
to
serve
us
for
drinks,
to
check
on
us,
to
get
us
refills,
to
bring
our
appetizer,
to
bring
our
food,
to
check
on
us
throughout
meal,
and
bring
us
the
check.
It
was
just
in
a
word
disappointing.
Our
steaks
were
cooked
to
order
and
baked
potatoes
were
good
too.
My
sister
and
I
added
shrimp
skewers
to
our
filets.
The
shrimp
were
not
edible
and
way
overcooked
very
rubbery
and
impossible
to
eat.
We
did
let
the
server
know
and
they
were
taken
off
our
bill.
The
dinners
come
with
one
trip
to
salad
bar.
The
salad
bar
had
some
of
that
lettuce
leaf’s
that
were
brown
in
a
huge
bowl
and
we
had
to
pick
around
it.
The
restaurant
had
just
opened
so
you
think
someone
would
have
removed
the
brown
lettuce
leafs
before
setting
it
out
for
diners.
The
other
items
on
salad
bar
seemed
fresh
and
tasted
good.
If
you
go
on
your
bday
you
get
$10
off
your
steak
which
is
a
good
deal!!
Overall,
it
was
just
an
ok
dining
experience
for
the
price
point
and
lack
of
attentive
service.
