The Sea by Alexander's Steakhouse Palo Alto Reviews from The Last Year
It has been a while since I've been back here.
The last was in 2017! My husband brought me here to celebrate my birthday. We were greeted with such eloquence by the two hostess in the reception area and quickly led us to our table. After being seated, I was given a "Happy Birthday" card which was such a nice touch. We were given the wine and drinks menu and shortly after we were greeted by our server, Stephen. As always, the service was superb and the ambience is always romantic. Spacing in between tables was perfect to keep conversations more private at bay. Our order was taken and we were given some bread rolls and garlic biscuits to start off with paired with what looks like butter that was made the night before or that morning. I could tell it was churned fresh. We ordered the steamed mussels, filet mignon and the wagyu strip steak. Oh the steamed mussels were so delicious! The filet mignon and wagyu strip was also very flavorful and tender. I should've asked for medium well, but the medium was soft. We couldn't finish our main course since we were so full from the bread and the mussels. But we did save room for dessert. For dessert we got a complimentary mousse cake for my birthday, and we also ordered this chocolate bombe with devil's food cake and espresso with amaretto ice cream. It was sooooo good. On top of all the sweets, we were presented with a pina colada cotton candy. This is what I always look forward to with any of the Alexander Steakhouse restaurants is the cotton candy. Alexanders and The Sea has always been a part of our celebrations and will continue traditions with them. Thank you for the fantastic service and superb food!

We decided to do a splurgy parents' night out/late Valentine's Day. We went in not knowing what to expect and left so happy! The whole experience start to finish made us feel so special and satisfied. We had the best service, and the food was seriously the best! We didn't have any steak and kept it to all seafood, and I kid you not, every single bite was to die for! highly recommend the hamachi shots and lobster rocks!

The salad was average, the soup of the day was delicious, the Hawaiian sea bass itself was good. The vermicelli I felt like was a poor pairing for the sea bass. It threw off the dish a bit, kind of reminded me of childhood sopa de fideo lol. The medium rare steak was chewier than I'd expected from an above average steakhouse. The hot tea was great. The dessert was wonderful.

We splurged on Valentine's day and came here for a celebratory dinner. Service: There's really only a few experiences I've had in the Bay Area where I felt like the server just held our hand throughout the meal in a way that I felt a bond to them afterwards, and this was one of those experiences. Our server was just top-notch, super friendly/warm, giving us suggestions, making us feel like us enjoying the meal was his number one priority. Ambience: romantic, upscale vibes. Sometimes I find steakhouse atmosphere to be too stuffy, but we had a fun time here. Wine: I was intimated by the enormous book of wine bottles. Just once I would love to dine with someone who orders $1000 bottle wines... I purposefully chose the cheapest wine by the glass and enjoyed it a lot! Food: They start off with a amuse-bouche as well as a small basket/assortment of complimentary bread We also had the grilled octopus as an appetizer, which generally I'm not a huge fan of, but my husband really enjoyed. We both ended up ordering fish for our entrees, though my husband was tempted by the red meat options. Again, our server did a great job explaining the differences between the fish. My husband likes spicier dishes, and also chewier fish- he loved his Monkfish dish. I love buttery/fatty super tender fish, and he recommended their Mero, which was just perfect. I enjoyed the soy glaze, and the bed of chopped vermicelli noodles and edamame that it came on top of. For dessert they gave us a huge complimentary cotton candy . We also ordered the Pretty in Pink panna cotta. I liked that the fruit flavors weren't overpowering, but otherwise the dessert was fairly average. Our neighbors ordered the Burnt Almond Bombe which looked really good! Plenty of parking in the lot.

Ambiance: luxurious and very comforting Service: The staff throughout was very professional. They greet you and make sure you have a comfortable time. Our server Jon (sorry if I misspelled your name), was excellent. He was humorous yet so professional. He helped guide us with the menu and ensured that we were satisfied with each item! His hospitality was very heartwarming, which greatly contributed to a memorable experience. We hope to have time as our server again in the near future! Chef Pratik dishes are phenomenally plated and executed beautifully. His staff is well composed and create such a hospitable experience. Food: we ordered a lot of delicious dishes from the menu and to name a few of my favorites: - get the oysters! They were so clean to the palate and so good! - hamachi shots are a classic! Will always be my favorite and continue to be - beef tartare was so well done and never knew it would pair so nicely with pomegranate gazpacho - the lobster rocks, phenomenal because the texture and temperature was on point!!! - winter wonderland dessert: amazing!!! All the dishes were so delicious! I can't wait to come back!!!
Of the best dinners I ever had.
As a person that doesn't eat meat this restaurant is perfect for me. Everything we ordered was so delicious. Our server was great and even got for us for birthday cake. Highly recommend !!!!!!
Great food, ambience and service.
Tried Monk fish and Squid ink lobster bites. Worth returning.
We came here for a conference .
They provided a prefixed menu so weren't able to everything . This was our first time there and the service was immaculate. Since it was Alexander by the sea , I decided to go with the sea bass. Sea bass was buttery delight. It paired well with miso lemon sauce and vermicelli. The presentation of the edamame and mushrooms depicts a plate from the forest floor . Dessert was good but a little sweet. Ambiance felt like a fine dining restaurant. Here's the menu we ate Mixed Baby Greens meyer lemon / marcona almonds / yuzu vinaigrette Entrée Course select one Catch of the Day miso / lemon / edamame / vermicelli / seasonal mushrooms Dessert Chocolate Strawberry Mousse Cake matcha rice krispies / strawberry gel / vanilla cremeux Instagram: overdarainbow123

I very much enjoyed my dinner here last month! The food was amazing- very high quality and tasty. We enjoyed several appetizers and a delicious selection of bread. Service was top-notch and very attentive. I would recommend a dinner here any time!
Crazy expensive
I have eaten in expensive restaurants all over the world, but when I opened the menu here I almost fell off my chair. Wait staff: they all seem like they are new or not well trained. Service is slow. Prices: OMG- the cheapest appetizer is $30- for smoked salmon!! Many items are $245, yes, two hundred and forty five dollars. Food: my lobster was good, but not great. My son's filet was good but not great. Lobster fried rice: mostly bacon with some lobster. My husband had sea bass, going by a different more fancy name to up the price. Ambiance: plain, sterile, not cozy, not unique, nothing interesting. Definitely NOT worth the prices they are charging.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
What happens if no one accepts your bid?
Do you get refunded by Apple Pay?

I recently had an resy invitation link sent to me and I clicked it to add myself to the invitation.

Getting a Refund
I'm reaching out for some guidance on a recent experience I had with a Resy reservation at 4Charles purchased Appointment Trader.
Upon arriving for my reservation, I was surprised to find that there was no record of the booking under the name provided in my AT purchase. I've already initiated a refund, but I haven't received any updates except the suggestion to check my purchase details and open a refund inquiry.
If anyone has successfully navigated a similar situation and could share their insights, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
