Alfred's Steak House

Over Priced.
Bad timing of serving.
Hidden fees.
Added charges.
Lack luster food.
Insipid side sauces.
Owner alledges governmental involvement in the restaurant business has caused them to have to charge a 17% service charge to every bill. Then they "tax" the service charge. They you tip your normal 20%. There are also all sorts of rules and additional fees listed all over the menu. You get the impression this restaurant owner is vengeful and tired of the restaurant business.

Awesome joint. Takes you back in time. Old school waiters, very knowledgeable, great service. The food is delicious, and no frou frou frills... just meats done great, potatoes to die for, and fabulous creamed spinach. Oh, and of course, you gotta start off with a martini or other old school cocktail - bartenders know the meaning of a generous pour!
