What Joanne VanSky doesn't like about Alex's:
It was the worst food ever. Tamales were so dried out we could not eat them. The coke tasted like they never cleaned the machine the fries totally SUCKED. WE WONT BE GOING BACK TO ALEXES EVER AGAIN. Tommy's is 100% better View all feedback. What High Priestess likes about Alex's:
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. View all feedback.

New owners. The pop tastes dirty like the machine hasn’t been clean, nasty tomatoes on the hot dogs and they serve dried out tamales. I will never be back!!
