Reviews of Alexander's Banquet Facility (Catering)

Wendall Dobson

I don't like their business model.

Jeffrey Ganley

Just ate here for the first time ever and were so pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. The food was absolutely phenomenal. The roast beef was like thin sliced prime rib. Med rare and not overcooked with a wonderful au jus. Delicious breaded oven baked chicken, buttered red skinned potatoes, green beans cooked perfectly. The tossed salad was amazing...cold, fresh and crisp with a homemade creamy Italian dressing. The buns tasted freshly baked and homemade. And the desserts, again, were phenomenal. I was very impressed by such an unassuming banquet facility. The staff were friendly, courteous and professional. Thank you for a job well done!!

A great location for a reception or any other larger party. They have very well maintained guest areas and the food is always top notch. Kristin does an awesome job facilitating all the events and makes sure your event is great for you and your guests. Definitely would recommend for any event.

Brandon Harris

My fiance and I went to this location looking for an option for our wedding reception, we were greeted promptly and kindly by the staff and shown around the facility. They were very helpful and telling us what to expect and the staff is very friendly. This was the best experience we had for this type of service in the area.

This is an absolute beauty of a venue. The owner Alex really cares about each event that is booked there. The staff he has working there is a great group of people. Kristen up in tthe front office has one of the biggest hearts I've ever seen. It has been of of the greatest group of people I've worked with in the short period of time that I have had the pleasure to work beside. Thank all each and everyone of you for being you!

Dominique Horon

I attended an employee Christmas party here. The food was good. A nice sized dance floor. The waitstaff seemed to be the little overwhelmed.

Samantha Osborne

Beautiful and elegant. I came as a quest to someone else's event, but I will surely keep this venue in mind next time I'm planning a party!

Brian Win

Went to a friends wedding here. Truly the worst food and service I ever had.

Michele Dahl

Absolutely beautiful

Ryan Mouzas

Beautiful venue and really friendly and helpful staff. And from what I heard it's very inexpensive too

Paige P.

Wonderful experience. Everyone was so helpful and friendly!

Amanda Partello

This place is just a con. They'll get you to sign a contract and make a deposit, then they'll get themselves "evicted" and move and run away with your money. DO NOT USE THEM!

Monica Guza

I attended a very enjoyable women's lunch here on a Saturday. A bit of a walk, if you're not early enough to get a close parking spot. The facility is super clean and accomondating. The food was surprisingly good and the staff is very attentive and professional.

Fred Hakim

Elegant venue

Amanda hartman

Very classy place.

Sheina Kramp

Every year we go for a Christmas party for my mom's work best place to party love the service and enjoy company of friends.

Sadie Russell

It isn't exactly what it used to be. I thought it would be a little more classy. But the wait staff is ????

Anna Taravella

We went for the new year's party. Had a great time. Good food, drinks, and the DJ kept the party going.

Rich E B

Friendly staff, big open ball room and banquet hall decent food

Cyndi Tallieu

I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THIS AWESOME PLACE!!!!!! IT'S JUST OUTSTANDING! It's a BEAUTIFUL place for a wedding/reception!!! Plus, amazing employees that work here! ???? We were treated so well when we were here for my cousins wedding. The staff even made my "picky eater" a separate plate of JUST CHICKEN because they saw he didn't want the chicken on the buffet line???? He felt so special ☺️ It was heartwarming!

C. A.

Peter Michael Photography Studio

Nice place to have a wedding , I photograph weddings here so I visit quite often. Food is great the owners are awesome.

Charla Allen

It's such a beautiful facility. I didn't realize how big it was until I noticed 2 receptions were taking place at the same time.

Kristina Brown

We had a anniversary party for some good friends there. It is a beautiful place. It is beautiful inside.

Steph B

I tried at least a dozen times to contact them because I wanted to have my wedding there. No one ever contacted me after all of the phone calls & emails. My fiance and I even went there at 4:00pm one day when their hours online said they were open to 6:00pm and no one was even there. They obviously don't need the business that much to not call us back! Would not recommend them to anyone!!

Jerry Deeg

Great program

Dave Squires

We used Alexander's for my daughter's wedding reception. Everything was good, the only 2 complaints were that the lighting was set too low and even after changing it once, it was reset to the darker setting later by someone.The other issue was that the room they set aside for the bride to change in was locked and only one of the staff had a key. Constantly having to locate that person to get into the room was a pain and it could be 10 minutes between wanting to get in the room and actually being able to get in. Overall it was a great experience and both our complaints could easily be addressed and corrected. I would recommend their facility as a good place to hold a reception.

Staff was friendly and engaging Venue is beautiful Chicken tastes like it was cooked, frozen then warmed over for the event

Matthew Fleury

Came here for a wedding and it was absolutely fantastic. The food was great, and the layout made buffet style meals quite efficient and simple. The actual venue seemed easy to customize, so it should make a great venue for any occasion.

Dan Campbell

Got invited to a wedding that was held here and it was nice! I live in St. Clair Shores so it was a bit of a hike but great food and drinks!

Jennifer Blackman

Very nice hall

Tamiko Edwards

Nice place!!

September Price

100th year Birthday celebration lovely event eventhough a little chilli

Matthew Woolman

Contacted the venue about setting up a reception. Told them our situation (fiance lives in Canada) and what our head count would be. We came to take a tour, it ended up being a complete waste of time. She said we needed a minimum of 150 people. Her mom from Canada came to check it out with us as well. We told her via email what our head count was, so when she knew that we weren't even close to that number, why didn't she tell us. Even on the tour she talked about the room in relation to how many people we would have at the reception. At the very least she could have told us there was a minimum. I have no problem that there is a minimum, but I have a huge issue with the time she wasted. I feel like it's very dishonest and would not recommend working with them.

KRISSY

Excellent people and food

Joanne Page

Such a beautiful place. Food was delicious. Service from staff was excellent!

Sabrina Daft

We rented half of the hall for our wedding and had an overall great experience. The staff was very friendly and nice, the food was outstanding, and everything was set up perfectly. My only recommendation for future brides are if you plan on having your rehearsal dinner here make sure you say something right away, I did not and they booked events both nights prior to my wedding day. We ended up having it somewhere else and everything worked out wonderfully.

Westly Durkee

They get really nervous when you look at the piano, makes it hard to appreciate it (I was at least a foot and a quarter a way). Also, if you're there and ask for coffee or drink and they say it isn't being served, you can bribe them to get it for you for a couple bucks.

jen d

Nice banquet/hall facilities. Clean and not too big or too small. Food is just okay though. I've been here for many different occasions and had many different types of meals served from plated meals to buffets, none have been great. Just okay.

Susan Frey

Very nice Wedding Reception food was good. Waitresses were good but did make me feel hurried.

Pete “Big O” Cipoll

Second to none in St. Clair county to upscale events!

Jackie S

Great facility for banquets, weddings. Good food and service.

Tony Laudazio

Our Son and Daughter-in-law recently had their wedding at Alexander's. They were both looking forward to this perfect evening and so were our families and friends. I will tell you the hall is beautiful and the food was good. Our evening was very pleasant except toward the end about 10:30 PM some of the remaining guests and family were standing at the bar area talking and having beverages when the bar lights were shut down and the bar was closed while some guests were waiting for a beverage. There was no warning or last call they were closing the servicing area and we feel we paid for additional time and when asked I had a contract stuffed in my face showing that the bar closes at 10:30 that was the additional time! in fine print it also says that there is NO Last Call!!! Their reason for this is that all of the people will rush the bar for a drink!!! We had Pizza as a late snack that was never announced so it was just sitting there getting cold. I understand that the bar closed at 10:30 and apparently my son and daughter-in-law agreed to it when they signed on however our pour guests that were there did not understand how a nice wedding and hall like this could have such an abrupt finish. It really ruined the whole night!!! I would never tell anybody not to have an event at Alexander's because it is a great location the food was good the service up until the 10:30 mark was good, the inside is real nice however Please look over all papers you sign and make sure to announce to your guests that the Pizza or snacks are out!! and that the last call for Beverages is coming up.So you can avoid this abrupt finish of your special event!

We had our wedding reception here and this place was amazing and the staff was absolutely wonderful. Just wish we had chosen a better photographer and DJ, but that's no fault of Alexander's. They really gave it 100%!!!

Katie Zalucki

I don't even know where to start! I had my wedding at Alexander's on 07/21/2017 and they made it ABSOLUTELY perfect! From the early stages all the way until the wedding day I couldn't have head a better experience. Kristin was absolutely amazing to work with. She was always available to answer any questions I may have and was always more than accommodating when it came to coming in to make payments and such. She made the process completely stress free. She was so sweet and always seemed genuinely interested in how things were going not just regarding the wedding, but in our lives which was extremely sweet. As for the hall, it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! The decorations came out absolutely stunning, the uplighting looked beautiful, they set up the cake table and guest book section so great, and overall the hall was STUNNING! I was absolutely blown away when we arrived. It was picture perfect and exactly how I imagined. I also cannot believe everything you get for the price. It is an incredible deal and like no where else. I could go on and on about my experience and how great it was. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. The dance floor is gorgeous since it's like black diamonds. The mirror above the dance floor is so cool and last by not least, the beautiful chandelier above the dance floor is stunning. Everyone I've talked to since the wedding kept saying how beautiful everything came out and I couldn't agree more. Thank you Alexander's Banquet Hall and Kristin for making my wedding absolutely picture perfect!

Amber Gross

Yesterday was mine & my husbands wedding here. We booked our reception back in 2019 before the Covid pandemic. Two years of planning all came together as the most beautiful day I could have ever imagined. So first I want to start by saying that Ceara and Kristin are AMAZING. Both of them went above and beyond on making sure my day was perfect. They knew my vision of my perfect day from the start and went far beyond my wildest dream with making that vision come to life!! Ceara ran the show last night. She was in contact with me during the week before the wedding, sending me pictures of my details, and helping me decide on other aspects of the reception. She sent me pictures of the hall when it was decorated so I could see what it would look like before the party started. It meant the world to me to be able to see two years of planning all come together. Ceara also was my hype woman all night. When the bridal party arrived at the reception, I was stressed and chaotic. Ceara calmed me down, pulled me back to focus, and assured me that everything was ready to go. I had no reason to stress! I love you both, Ceara & Kristin!! Absolute life savers & PHENOMENAL at their jobs!! Next, I want to say how BEAUTIFUL & structured the venue was. The food, the decorations, the efficiency of the buffet line, cake/desert/gift table was PERFECT. It was amazing to have a group of awesome people to do set up & tear down! I owe that once again to Ceara & the other coordinator of the hall (I’m so sorry, I forgot her name but she was amazing and did a great job setting up Saturday morning as well!!) The food and drinks were perfect! The food was *chef kiss* and the drinks were poured strong ;) It was an absolute pleasure having my wedding here. If I could do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat! Thank you guys all for the wonderful night!! Extra special thank you, again, to Ceara. You’re a queen. Don’t let anyone tell you differently!!

Theresa McCartney

Please stay away from this place. They will take your money lie and Alex will never return your calls. Very disappointed they ruin weddings don't let it happen to you.

Pam g

St. Clair County Health Department set up a COVID vaccine center here. The building is now called "Knights Club".

Steve Murray

Wonderful facility on the upper East side. The place looks amazing for all occasions. This is one of the cleanest banquet halls from the front door to the back door that you will find. The food is really good also.

Jessica Kaminski

We had my sister's baby shower here and it was great! The good was good and the wait staff was excellent. The employees made the shower run smoothly. The space was open and easily fit the 50 people we had there. It was one of the nicest showers my family has had.

Jennifer Dalton

The venue was beautiful, the food was good, the wait staff very attentive, and our bartender was the best!!

Dan Radatz

Been here twice. First visit - Brother and his wife put on a wedding reception here. Food was 4-5 star, music was 4 star, Brother and his wife were very happy with the reception and recommended that we try their New Year's Eve party. Best party yet. Food was excellent, lots of it and no rushing to clear it away. Open bar and the drinks were good. The DJ? The music was a little young for my taste but the dance floor was full most of the night. We will go back again.

Jeremy Fox

Went here for a wedding. The staff was rude, Especially the waitstaff who cleared tables. The food was great and the building was clean.
