As usual The Alden did not disappoint. The food was “outside the box” and delicious. Service was on point and accommodating. Truly the “crown jewel” for this neighborhood. We will be back .

This place is so great! Service was a 10/10! Also the restrooms were really clean. I’m sorry I’m a judge a place by its restroom type of girl!

It was a lovely and easy early Friday dinner! I enjoyed the salmon curry (SUCH a lovely flavor) and my husband enjoyed a steak entree. Though the steak was initially undercooked, they resolved the issue with no problem and we both agree it was delicious!
