Alexander Michael's

Great sandwich.

Went for dinner and really enjoyed it.  It was a Thursday night at 8 and the place was full but we didn't wait at all as I think we got the last table.  I've been here one other time on a Friday or Saturday and we had to wait 30 minutes for a table of 2.  The service was good and pretty quick for how busy they were.

We tried the Ruben and it was one of the better Rubens we have had.  The sides were a little better than average, but the broccoli slaw was outstanding.  We also had the London broil, better than average but just a little tough.  The jerk chicken quesadilla was amazing and we would definitely get it again.

We will come back here for sure, for the food, the good beer selection, and the chill atmosphere.  A great place.  Would have given five stars had the menu been a little bigger offering more variety.

I really like this place.  What a gem of a find, and hunt you must the first time to locate this place.  Walking from uptown up to 9th, you will notice that it becomes very residential and a dead-end, so you may think you are in the wrong place, but you are in the right place.  This is a local tavern, with the charm and hospitality.  Coming here makes you wish you had Alexander Michaels in your neighborhood.  The workers are very welcoming and efficient.  They are quick to take your orders, fill your drinks, and come back often.  The food options are great and too many to choose from.  I wanted to try the pastas as I saw several go by my table, but I went for the daily special, the boneless fried chicken and mashed, and a choice of side, and I was happy.  My friend got the burger and it was tasty too.  Top it all of with a nice selection of local Carolina beers on draft, and you have a great evening.  If I ever get back to Charlotte Al Mike's is on the must return list.
